Create a custom blog design. Your blog is a symbol of your brand. Make it uniquely you.

thepinkc Current themeI’ve tweaked the current theme alot, but there’s definitely a lot more that can be done. I’m not a coder by trade, but I do like poking around and finding new ways to make my site easier to use and better looking!

One thing that did help in customizing this current theme was enlisting the services of a graphic designer to create a custom banner and logos for the site.

Web Design, Part Deux: Dreamweaver, Arachnophilia and Coffee Cup

Alrighty. I know you’ve been waiting. Today, I’m reviewing one free to try, pay to keep web design program (Dreamweaver) and two totally freebies (Arachnophilia and Coffee Cup).

I started using Dreamweaver when it was owned by Macromedia in version MX 2004. I recently picked up Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 (el cheapo as a student from my school). This will review mainly the overall program of Dreamweaver - pick the version you want more if it is what you choose to use.

Hand Coding Anyone?

Example of the beginning of a site:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Test Site</title>
</head>
<body>
Text
</body>
</html>

Now that’s really basic. No doubt you want some color, some different sized text, some things in bold, italics or underlined, etc. You can do all that formatting and more with pure code.
