A new Photoshop manipulation. This one didn’t start with the people or the clouds in the picture.

Here are the pieces:

In Development: Widget WordPress Theme

Mary — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 19:20:36 +0000

I admit I like to play around with creating various WordPress themes. Here’s a sneak peek of one I’m working on, which I plan to release for free in the coming months.

I think the most unique feature is that this will be a widget-ONLY theme (especially useful for an RSS aggregator-type site) for the homepage. I’m also working on creating a few different color options.

Hopefully releasing within the next month!

The (all-new) Good Designs

Hello, 2010!

I’ve been working on re-vamping the design of the site (as you can probably see). I was completely inspired by a ton of amazing portfolio blogs out there (especially these), but wanted to come up with something that I could use for a long time, and that matches my newly-updated resume. I did want to continue with the { as a design element, so you can see it here and there.

One thing you may notice is a near-daily posting of links to various articles and resources. These are the things I’m bookmarking and linking to in Delicious throughout the day. By the way, if you have a blog and use Delicious, check out their beta blog thing: you can have it auto-post to your blog!

Thanks,
Mary

New! Premade Layout Designs.

Going through my old work, I realized that I had a slew of website designs that were never used for one reason or another. Most of them were created for my own use, and then I never got around to using them. Depending on how old they are and how much work was put into them, I’ll be offering the designs and layouts from $10-$40.

Check them out on the Layouts and Templates page.

As of Saturday, the website for Rivers of Praise Ministries is now live.

A custom WordPress template was created, to allow for easy updates. The layout was designed in Photoshop.

Logo in the Real World

One of the great things about being a graphic designer is being able to see your work out in the wild unexpectedly. Driving along the other day, I saw this sign up, with the logo I designed in giant, glorious color.

Sorry for the odd angle; it’s hard for a passenger to get a shot from a cell phone camera while the car is moving. See it bigger after the jump…
