Our last computer we bought, we decided to be mature and not put bootleg software or boosted music on it. Everything on this computer is pure and legal. That's why I have Photoshop (elements) and I do not have Dreamweaver, I make my website with a free outfit called Kompozer (a free HTML editor) I do like Kompozer, it's like Dreamweaver lite. I use filezilla for FTP.
Since my fundraiser is over, and I have brand new, awesome professional photos, I took this rainy Sunday to re-do my website - JPHardee.com
I wanted this navigation menu, and I did some slicing to get the desired result.
I literally wrote up what I was going to call/name my slices so I could basically go data-entry style on setting them up. Sometimes I jot down HTML color codes.
And it turned out like this:
It all came together pretty quickly, so I'm happy. This is a new, simple design to last at least through the summer.
Yesterday we had a daytime drinking birthday party, so we got drunk super early, rode bikes up the West Side Greenway to stay away from cars, passed out before 10pm and woke up so early today.
I've had a most productive day.
After I made-over my website, I remembered that someone asked for a photo of my necklace on a pure white background. I had researched how to make a DIY light box but had no supplies.
I was sitting on my bedroom floor and noticed this Ikea storage container in my wardrobe. I dumped out the contents and turned it into my light box.
If I had not grown-up as a poor, only-child in Arkansas, I do not think I would have the ingenuity to think of stuff like this.
I got my necklace photo so clean, I was able to isolate it and put it on a transparent background.
This felt like a huge personal triumph in photoshop.
