Updates of 6.27.2006

It’s been a while, I admit. But I have been making progress on the site. Take a look at my portfolio and let me know what you think. Feedback is welcome if it helps make the site better. I’m pleased with the overall look and feel although I’d like to add a few more graphic details. I’ve also started uploading some of my personal work – the non-commercial, more experimental design. In the near future I hope to redesign the blog to match the look and feel of the portfolio site.

Post-Memorial Day weekend

I’ve got a new “refined” grunge look for my portfolio site (some people thought it was a tad too dark and edgy in it’s previous look). But I will still be tweaking it and adding more content in the next few weeks. Feel free to critique it in the comments. It’s still not visually interesting enough for me so there will most likely be some visual accents added in the near future.

ARGGGGHHHH….

Well something of my portfolio is up. I will be the first to admit that it sucks. I wonder why I even bothered. It took way too long to narrow down the infrastructure -static XHTML or use WordPress’ dynamic PHP template system. I wanted to tie it into the blog as far as the look and feel. But trying to actually tie it *into* the blog turned out to be more of a headache then it was worth. I’m probably going to redo my portfolio in Flash because hey, I can get it to do what I want and I can do impressive stuff which is what my portfolio is supposed to do – you know, impress people. Right now it might cause people to laugh and wonder what the heck mediaRAIN does why they bother to pay me. But I do have something up now and I plan on making it better. Therefore the first (and often the hardest) step is done and now it’s time to make my portfolio and site shine. And get a job in Michigan.
