The issue was that pages would sometimes take three weeks […]
God I love Unsplash!
How many times do you find a gem of a thing in this world today? I can honestly tell you there are a few things other than my family that I really treasure in this world. One of the top 10 I have to say is the magical Unsplash.com. If I were religious and Unsplash […]
Hate your previous work
If you are an artist or designer, it is possible you too hate your previous work. This is especially true with me and any of my previous work regardless of whether or not clients or other users rave about it; I still cannot bear it. Design is art, this includes web design. Art is a […]
