Malaysia website design blog
I was surfing Hardware Zone and noticed they were running a CANON iPixma printer contest but dang, it already passed. Anyway, the micro site was done in Flash and as usual, you’d find out by right clicking the mouse on the area.
I noticed something new in the flash player 8 menu. There was an option called Redraw Regions. Like a curious puppy, I clicked on it and didn’t see any difference until I clicked on a link and loaded the next page. There were red outlines everywhere. It was like..
Just how far have you taken these familiar elements when developing a new personal or client website? And we’re talking about sections here, not the design. One guy worked with the bare minimum of:
• a short stylesheet
• header
• menu
• content
• sub-section
• footer
• no hacks
..and turned them into a bunch of fluid layouts.
The news is out as of yesterday and is being circulated online by various key members of 9rulers. I got my update from 456 Berea St regarding 9rules round-3 submission. What’s this about?
Well, ever since they first started, 9rules has been about websites and the Internet. They’ve evolved and grown into a larger connection of blogs about websites to topics like psychology and other fun stuff. So what’s so exciting about becoming a 9ruler?
There’s a difference between the blog network like b5media and the just released, Blogs Malaysia network. As much as it might sound like a blogging network, it’s really taking the idea or concept behind and make it more interactive.
The Blogs Malaysia website is all about connecting bloggers together under one space by allowing them to share other worth entries they’ve found online and later debate on it. Confused yet?
I’m back from Genting and I’m now down from the hill along with an accompanied cold. The sneezing and leaking faucet are the worst things of a flu. Just hope the next thing that develops isn’t a cough.
Anyway, how much do you pay your referrals?
I’ve been rather ignorant ever since I’ve been back from Melbourne, believing that one of the strict principles I should start are to not pay cash for referrals. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I’m not paying them for their gratitude but I tried to believe there’s more ways of showing appreciation.
I’ll be AFK or away from my keyboard starting tomorrow till probably Sunday. The family and I will be heading upwards to get away for awhile from the polluted air and for a short holiday. It’s considered a short holiday though most Westerners actually take a month long holiday on some beautiful island.
It’ll just be us and cooling air up in Genting Highlands. The other reason for heading up is to also dine in one of the finer restaurants to celebrate my eldest brother’s birthday. However, I’ll try not to leave everyone empty handed and shall recommend these few links while I’m away.
It was the first time I’ve visited YourTotalSite.com and my first visit already became memorable one. Not only does it have articles I wish I could write, its articles help us help develop a better web.
One of the articles I’d like to bring to you is Capturing Design Inspiration. You know how we as designers need inspiration to trigger our creativity at times. Not counting the illumination process we have when we’re sitting on our humble thrones.
What is the 9rules network?
We highlight the very best web content in the world and package it in a nice bow for you to unwrap. Our members discuss topics like Web 2.0 design, Hollywood gossip, cognitive psychology, sex & relationships, entrepreneurship, and many othersVia 9rules
In short, they’re a network of fast upcoming authors in the blogosphere discussing many topics of the future. They have taken the blogging network into a whole new level when they first introduced themselves in 2003/2004.
When you are in the freelance business, you either meet with a lot of people or you converse on the phone or even exchange emails. By any of the methods mentioned, I’ve found out that intuition counts half the time when trying to figure out your client.
But I won’t start a rant and start listing clients I hate or despise (though it’ll be a good stress reliever). Instead, I’d like to talk about the good things or attitudes I’ve found in some of my more worthy clients.
As long as I can remember, I started going online in 1995 and was pretty busy in my small lil Geocities space. Back then, Geocities was Geocities and not yet a part of the Yahoo! network.
Before website design and development began for me, everyone were happy with a website that had blinking or animated gaphics and colorful headers. Imagine a header with various colored letters in a header title own. Gosh! Thank goodness we’ve moved on..or haven’t we?
