Snailbites – Design & Craft

I’ve been slacking on finishing this page for some time. This project got onto one of those timelines where I did 80% in 5 days, then the last 20% in 5 weeks. All you designers know how that goes.

For now, there are still some kinks to work out, and some more portfolio pieces to put up. But I think we’re good to go with what I have up as is. Hope you enjoy. Please leave me some feedback – I like to know how my work looks to the general public.

Changes

Well my mind is goin’ through them changes,
I feel like I’m hypnotized.
Every time you see me goin’ somewhere,
I feel like I’m goin’ out of my mind.

“Changes” – Jimi Hendrix & Band of Gypsies

Had lots of time to get alot of work done on a wet, rainy and windy weekend. I’ve been working on a redesign for the homepage (yes, another re-design). Don’t get me wrong, I love the current design. I absolutely love it. But for right now, I think its a little to whimsical (albeit, unprofessional). This new one has a similar feel, but a little more robust, and will definitely be easier to update. That’s key since I’ve had alot of projects the past few weeks. Peep the logo and stay tuned!
