A Sunny Outlook

Wow, these past couple of weeks has been busy with work. I’m happy to announce that one of the websites I’ve been working on has officially launched.  Laugh for the Cure® is a website I’ve been working on for a while now, I was happy to get to release this past week. I did the whole site design and coding  for that site, although we did have a strict design guideline that Komen National  had set forth for us to follow.

Now I’m done with that project I just started on another project, that I hope to release soon as well. I always enjoy starting a project, but always hate when they come to a end.

Lots of Designing…..

I’ve been designing a lot lately some personal, but mostly for clients.My latest client project was designing a logo for E-Quint Consulting. Plus I’m still working on finishing the new design for Laugh for the Cure, which is a local Charlotte, NC Susan G. Komen for the Cure Affiliate. Plus I just finished up giving AlterCube’s Cubestudio.org website a slight refresh too. I’m  will also  be starting some new projects that I’m partnering with a few design companies too.  Most will be websites, but others will be logos, print materials ( business cards, brochures, etc.) and ads. 

I’m still always for hire as a freelancer or contractor  if anyone needs to hire someone to build a website or print marketing items. If you would like to hire me feel free to contact via My portfolio, or My Blog. If you need to hire a web firm, then I highly recommend my design colleagues over at AlterCube too.

Almost The Weekend: Recap of this weeks events….

Lot’s have been going on this week! I had to shuffle work around this past weekend to get caught up with deadlines, before having surgery on Tuesday. It was a minor surgery from some injuries that I had from the wreck I was in last June. I had my first check up today (post surgery) and everything went well. Looks good and all tests came back clear too. Have to take it easy this weekend, but hopefully by next week I’ll be back to normal and getting started back on work.

In other news

I just finished up a new logo for Blog Carolinas, which is a new soical media event happening in the RTP, NC area this month.

I picked up MarioKart for the Wii but have yet to play it since I’ve had to limit my activity from my surgery.  Hopefully next week I can start playing the game, since by I should be a lot better. I already have a bunch of friend requests and friends codes, so I will be ready to play soon.

I’ve also released a today a new header for the blog. I’ve started thinking about some new ideas for a new theme for the blog too. I want something new, funky  and fresh for the blog. I have yet to commit to a design, but will keep everyone update when I ready to release the new look.

Also signed up for another social media websites, which this one is different from Myspace or Facebook. Why? is because with Brightkite you can see where your friends are, what they’re up to, see what’s going on around you, and meet real-world friends too. So far it’s seems like a pretty cool web service and it’s intergrated with another web service called “Twitter” which is like mini blog posts or updates that you can read from whom you’re subscribed too. Anyhow, if anyone wants an invite to try out Brightkite just leave a comment and a valid e-mail.

I also got a late Birthday present last week, which was a new monitor. It’s a great HD LCD to go along with my old dino CRT. Now I’m back to using a dual setup, which has been nice. Plus it’s super easy setting dual screens for the mac too. I’m waiting for Apple to release the new cinemas displays, which I hope will not be too much longer. Love to finally get rid of the CRT for good, but really want to wait for an Apple Cinema screen.

Below is a nightshot of the new setup & part of the office, where I do all of my work ( designing, coding, drawing etc.)

Well that about wraps up what’s been going on with me this week. Hoping this weekend will be filled with lots of rest, and just maybe some Mariokart playing, but that will depend if I feel up to it.
