I can’t believe I actually finished something on my to do list. It seems like just yesterday that I was spinning in my tracks just deciding what http://nancysward.com is even going to look like. The fact I couldn’t come up with something clean and clever was putting that project on the procrastination list.
Then like all good ideas, it just hit me. I knew I wanted only three sections, photography, kaleidoscopes and toast (aka special projects) and already had one lame design that I was trying to get ready to implement, I just wanted it done and off all my lists.
Like I said, I finally got hit by my idea, one I am proud of. And I used this opportunity to get up to speed with CSS3 and HTML5 and a little JQuery–wow, double duty!
Anyway, now I have a one stop home for my photoblog, Flickr, a couple kaleidoscope projects and other special projects. I can just drive people here and not have to try and spell drawsward or swardraws. Carroll from the March board says I sound like a hospital ward!
Now that it is officially done and announced, I keep going back in to tweek stuff. I keep rewording and messing around with it. Time to leave it alone, let it live out there in the world wide web to its audience of tens. Who really cares about this besides me? I already made business cards for it to hand out to whoever.
Next on my list is to learn Cinema 4D. I suspect that all the tweeking of the new site is a ploy to procrastinate doing the tutorials in the book I bought. It looks like it isn’t happening tonight either. Maybe tomorrow.
