Thoughts, Art, and such

Next up?!
Feb 12th
Since I am so close to finishing the CamDenver site I feel it is important to begin thinking ahead to the next project. So, what do I work on next? Well this truely does depend on what is really influencing me at the time. The first option is to actually design my own theme for this blog, then add features so I can display my art.
I also have the option of developing my blog for warcraft. To me this seems like it would be a more enjoyable alternative. I love playing the game so I might as well put my thoughts and various points of experience towards it.
The biggest issue I have with doing either is that i’m not sure how I want them to look >.< I am hopeful however that inspiration will strike!
CamDenver Status Update
Feb 10th
So this weekend I managed to get a lot of work done on the CamDenver site in a relatively short time.
Currently I have the layout completed, suckerfish style main menu, basic typography, and a few tweeks to the general design.
I just need to tweek the typography, adjust the sidebar, and setup the footer. Once I finish that, I can move on to plugins and custom php.
CamDenver
Feb 3rd
I’ve begun working on the rebuild of http://www.camdenver.com and so far I have to saythat it’s an interesting process to go through. I am currently running the site off the Joomla platform. While powerful, it is too difficult forms to use as a CMS.
The purpose of the CamDenver site is to provide a portal for players to garner information about upcoming games and provide any additional, or useful info as it relates to the Camarilla and roleplaying. There are at the least five features that the site needs to have.
- A calendar that shows events
- A detail of the event showing location
- General game and domain announcements
- Contact information ala about page
- Hosting for the monthly newsletter
Most if not all of these features are simple enough to implement. I’ve given myself a deadline of Feb 28th to accomplish the transition. If all goes well this will happen.
