‘php’ stuff

In-line style? PLEASE DON’T

Besides the more obvious reasons for not using them (if no reasons come to mind, stop reading and go play some place on YouTube), in-line styles suck on another level. Keep reading…

Just for fun

I like fun things, but getting tattoos all the time is rather cost prohibitive. So I have built a little playground area, for learning and trying new stuff. Some of it is just following along through tutorials I’ve seen online, and some if it is testing out new things as I read about them. Most of it is front-end related (CSS(3), HTML(5), and JavaScript/jQuery), but there is some coding going on as well (CodeIgniter) that you won’t see. At any rate, check out the playground for some good times.

BE WARNED: if you’re using IE, you probably won’t love it so much… sorry?

Launched another site

The folks over at CDG (Citrus Design Group) launched another site last week. It was for a buddy from high school, and it was good to reconnect with him in a professional setting. Check out the new Focus Capital Group website. Let me know what you think!

Redesigned Another Site

MelissaHarrisPhotography.comI redesigned my wife’s web site, MelissaHarrisPhotography.com. It was built with Photoshop, Illustrator, jQuery, CodeIgniter, CSS3, and tender loving care. You will want to look at it in a browser that understands CSS3 to get the full effect (Firefox, Chrome, or Safari – sorry Opera, I did not check on you, but I’m guessing it’s much better than good ol’ Internet Explorer.) You can’t tell by looking – but it does have an entire custom built back-end for administering the portfolio and proofing sections of the site. The blog portion of the site will be updated very soon to match the new style.

She’s happy with it, so I’m happy with it. If you need a photographer – get in touch with her!

Leave me a comment to let me know what you think of the new design!



i am gabe

Gabe Harris, that's me

I love web development and I specialize in front-end development. If you think that means "just HTML" you can go play some place else on the internet, that's fine. While I'm neither an artsy designer nor an über-technical programmer, I am comfortable in both worlds. I work at the intersection of design and server-side programming with proficiency in HTML/CSS, JavaScript/Ajax (thumbs up for jQuery), ASP.NET, php (including Wordpress and CodeIgniter), Photoshop, and Illustrator.

I follow modern web design trends and techniques, but I'm not overly concerned with being bleeding edge. I browse the web with Google Chrome, I use Firefox for some of its development features sometimes, and I cringe at the thought of Internet Explorer (can you guess which browser renders this site best?)

When I'm not geeking out on the interwebs, I love playing with my kids and going fishing. Feel free to learn more about my experience, or see my work, or Facebook me, or follow me. Glad you stopped by!
