Making It So
After over 5 years Yummy Wakame finally has a sleek new look! This has been a work-in-slow-progress for over a year now, as always with personal projects it’s been the last priority after paid work. At one point I thought it would never happen and didn’t touch it for about 4 months, figuring I’d work on it once work slowed down completely, but that never happened, and since October last year I suddenly found myself revelling in a whole lot more free time than I was used to. So YAY for Yummy Wakame! I guess now I’ll be passing around the business cards instead of cringingly giving out the URL to new clients. This design is a much better fit, inspired by something very meaningful to me. The portfolio isnt groaning under the weight of crusty 7 year old projects anymore. The new site and portfolio is so much easier to keep fresh thanks to WordPress, without needing to do a further stitch of code. I can make you a WordPress powered site too!
Oh and I’m working on the issue with the homepage taking a year to load. The hidden portfolio pieces are massive and unfortunately are loading before they are needed, so I still have to figure out how to load them on demand. Hopefully you all have broadband.
If anyone knows what that Kanji character is in the favicon you get +10hp!

Thanks Eon! I’m glad you’re still around. I think you’ve seen every incarnation of this site since the beginning. Come a long ways since pretending to be a web designer at Cinergy huh! hahaha

Oh this is so stylish and beautiful … ahhh, I am such a proud Mum, you are BRILLIANT! I love your Sock Dreams website and oooh … ‘Sea and Sails’ is one of the favoured few picked for your portfolio. Looking at it again, I can’t wait for the new flat to be finished so that we can get this site up and running. xxxxxxx

I was just wondering about that Bev! Because every time I check, I’m just farting around window shopping or drinking tea, searching the web for sequin shoes, playing on Facebook or Bejewelled, or picking at my face. But somehow, I’m gettin all sorts of stuff done. And a lot of it. I have NO idea how or when. Joseph’s always making fun of how much I fart around. Compared to him I am such a lazy bum. Its just sooooo hard to focus! I’ve tried. truly.

Haha you guys! Zach – I really hope so! Morgan, what on earth do you need a web designer for? We make things that don’t even exist except in cyberspace. In fact we invented the need for websites. Up until that point, nobody needed one. Anaya – Taproot are amazing. I ran into some big glitches and their awesome tech support held my hand through it all. I <3 them so…

If you are too ethical, you won’t get the best high-buck corporate jobs…
Morgan Moore
I would give anything to need a web designer. If I was rich, i’d just put you on the payroll.
Anaya Parry
