New Design

Posted by: Jennifer In: Bookmarks

I'm in the process of putting up a new design for this site. If you're hitting the site right now – things may look a little funny while I get all everything worked out. Sorry for any inconvenience. Everything should be fine in the next hour or so.

So I think it's all set up now. Feel free to leave a comment here if you notice anything really wonky.

Some notes about the new design -specifically the logo: I finally settled on a "real" logo. A butterfly of course. It's been a theme that's been consistent in almost all the designs for this site. Not sure how to explain why, but I wanted something to represent "goddess" – beauty, perfection, etc. without resorting to a pin up shot. In my mind, that's how I see butterflies. To connect it to the code, the butterfly in the logo is made up of programming "pieces" – numbers for the antenna, curly brackets } { for the wings, a pipe | for the body. So that's where that came from. I'm pretty happy with it. (hopefully, I'll still be happy with it in a few months, I can be pretty fickle about my own designs) So much so that I even made a Cafepress Store with the logo. Not that I think anyone but me would really buy anything there – but you never know!

I love the logo! The first thing I noticed was the curly brackets. The site looks great – nothing wonky here so far! Congratulations!

Good to have you back! The new design is nice, too – but I sort of loved the old one. :)

I saw the new design before I saw this thread (obviously <grin>) and really liked it. Very nice stuff.

I really love the logo as well.

I think the t-shirt with the large logo and the url under it is the best. I may have to buy one :)
