C-M-Y-K (or, New Blog Design)
· Sep 23, 01:19 AM
UPDATE: decided it wasn’t a good idea to design at 3 in the morning.
If you’re reading this from my website, you may notice something different.
The “typographic” design (as I came to call it) was nice and simple, but it grew old on me.
I felt I needed a change.
So, seeing as how my current job entails the print industry, I thought, “How can I incorporate CMYK into my design?”
Well, this is what came of that musing.
The first thing you might notice is, of course, the colors. CMYK (or Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) are the four most commonly used colors in printing.
You can re-create pretty much any color in the spectrum using those four colors.
Also, I got rid of the useless “welcome” page.
Now, when people navigate to the site, they go directly to actual content.
There is also a new “site search” feature on the side-bar.
Other goodies/easter eggs throughout as well.
I started on this about 12:00 AM CST and just finished at 3:32 AM CST.
I figure, if I can’t sleep, might as well do something productive, right?
So, I hope you enjoy the new design.
Any comments/concerns would be appreciated.
