Matthew Higley Surrounded by the artsy fartsy...

I bequeath upon the people of FDA... be there any programmers in the land? I'm too creatively inept to start my own FDA (Fresno Developers Alliance), so I'm just going to sit here in my programming corner weeping... hoping that a few more of us are out there. Let me know if it's worth starting a group for us. HTML? CSS? PHP? Drupal? Actionscript 3? Anyone? Continue

Rewebbed Why you should never build your site entirely in Flash.

There's many reasons to stay away from entirely Flash based web design. Here's a debate on SEO. Read Even though Google is attempting to make Flash indexing more friendly, HTML is still more clean, affordable, efficient, search and app friendly. You can generate similar stylish effects with javascript keeping Flash out of your online experience. We at Rewebbed believe that Flash does… Continue

Veronica Hdz MunchiesOnWheels.com

Ok y'all. I'm having some trouble pinning down a design. So I would like to get your first impressions: Without knowing what the company does, what do you think of when you hear "munchies on wheels"? What images, fonts, colors, associations do you make? I'm gathering ideas from everyone where I can, so once I have something to show I'll be hoping to get feedback on that as well. The company is a cultural reference to "meals on wheels" and the cannabis community. It's a delivery service that pro… Continue

Sebastian Where are you most inspired?

I feel most inspired at 2 places: 1) At my desk when I sit back and close my eyes while enjoying electronic/ambient music. 2) Outside - in the mornings when I take a 30min walk/bike.

Veronica Hdz MeetUp.com

I'm seriously considering creating a web/graphic design group on meetup.com. The only reason I hadn't was because it actually costs money to start a group, then I got this email today giving me 50% off. So that sounds like a good deal... now all I have to do is summon the courage and willpower to devote a day to meeting with other people and tear apart their designs. Because you see, I don't want a group t… Continue
