Sorry for my long absence! I’ve been busy building websites. First, I built the Scoop website at WhatIsYourScoop.com. It’s a T-shirt business I helped start with two friends. Tell me: What is your Scoop? Comment here or go to the contact page to suggest a Scoop.
Second, I created a website for my hairdresser, Stacey, at EffectsByStacey.com. (Be sure to roll your mouse over the scissors, picture frame, and phone!) Originally I built Stacey’s site entirely in Flash with Frank Sinatra crooning “Too Marvelous For Words” in the background. Loved it. But practicality and the iPhone necessitated the final HTML/Flash version.
And third, I’m nearly finished with Cañada College’s Multimedia Art website. (Soon to be live at canadacollege.edu/multimedia.) It’s the biggest website I’ve tackled so far. Psst…that photo that I shot of the campus is actually three pictures put together.
Thanks for letting me share my news. Oh, and if you haven’t seen my portfolio site yet, check it out here. New craft coming later this next week!

Maybe you should start a new blog called “craftyweb” – you are so talented!!! The only thing is I think the 300-page tutorials may be a bit lengthy. : ) Congratulations and great job!

I would love to have the skills to create a custom home page for my private blog. Can you provide some direction? For example are there particular books I should be reading? Taking college courses? Your help is appreciated.

I LOVE the Multimedia site!!! it’s the best one we’ve ever had. WOW!! It’s all I have to say :)
I’m so happy you had a chance to work on that project.
Best,
Dani

Gail – I took college courses to learn HTML, CSS, and Flash. Blogs are tricky though. WordPress, for example, is PHP (a coding language more complicated than HTML). Your best bet is to find a free theme that you like on the web, upload it to your site, and customize the CSS. Best of luck to you!

That Effects site is about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! I love the disco ball and the frame.

Thank you, Dani. That’s quite a compliment coming from you. Couldn’t have done it without you.
