  • Twitter Page Design Template

    TwitterTemplate2

    I’ve found myself doing more and more Twitter design for clients. Your Twitter profile page can make a big brand impact so it makes sense to put a bit of thought into it instead of just throwing whatever images are available onto the background and profile picture. But in my Twitter design travels I’ve seen a lot of Twitter page templates that focus solely on the background. Simple customizations like the color of the text and links can make a big difference in the look and feel of the page and it is just foolish to ignore them. So enter my custom Twitter Page Design Template. I’ve recreated the page and separated all of the elements, making it easy to mockup a page design. The Photoshop file has groups by the different areas Twitter allows you customize: Background Color, Background Image, Text Color, Link Color, Sidebar Color, Sidebar Border Color, and Profile Picture.

    [Code] Sublime is a new design to html chop shop that does great work. I worked up the design of their new site and they had it up and looking pixel perfect in no time. I have not used services like this in the past but after seeing the work they produced I’m considering the switch. Check them out here and on Twitter. They are also great fun to work with. Hit up Brennan, he is an awesome dude.

  • Die Monsters Die!

    Die Monsters Die! is a brand spanking new iphone and ipod touch game that I was lucky enough to work on. I ran into the developer and mastermind Jim on the nets and he was looking for someone to do the graphics for his game. I have long been looking to get into the iphone app game so I excitedly jumped in. I created all the graphics in the game and even brushed off some GarageBand silliness to serve as the background music.

    Jim’s game is awesome monster blasting fun and I’ve found myself addicted to it. It was a total blast to work with Jim on it and I’m proud of the final product. It just hit the app store so go check it out!

  • What Time is it There UPDATE

    Thanks to Twitter friend James Socol What Time is it There has gotten a brand spankin’ new feature and a new home. Behold the new whattimeisitthere.info.

    James kindly lent his javascript prowess to my little project and gave it a little backend makeover. He cleaned things up and added my #1 dream feature: the ability to change the time and see the change across the board.

    showthetimeboxNotice the new Show time box. Just type in what you would like to see. For example, say I’ve got a meeting at 9am Eastern time tomorrow. What time do I need to get up? I just type in “at 9am eastern” and bam I can see what time that is in my time zone. You can also type things like “in 6 hours”.

    This really puts the icing on the cake for me. Thanks James for the awesome work and the sweet domain!

  • What Time is it There?

    Every once in a while I need to know what time it is in another part of the country(USA). Now, I know in general what the differences between the time zones are but I always question myself. I always hit google and am always surprised at the lackluster results I find. All the best sites for seeing the times in all US time zones are content heavy and hard to look at. What I wanted is something I could easily just glance at and instantly know what time it was in a different time zone. Thus I began this project: What Time is it There

    wtiit

    Using some simple javascript and an Eric Carle inspired map I created a bright and simple visual reference that tells me swiftly what time it is in all US time zones. I’ve already found it to be incredibly useful to myself and I’m hoping to add a few features soon.

    The code is a little janky right now. The 12:00am/pm display is a little shaky, but it works for my purposes. The feature I’m looking to develop next is the ability to change the time. Its all well and good to know what time it is right now in other time zones but what if I need to know what time I need to get up for a 9am EST meeting? I’d like to be able to easily put that in and then see the relative times across all time zones. And then of course I’d like to extend it internationally but that’s a whole can of worms.

    If anyone who’s well versed in Javascript would like to help out I’d be happy to collaborate on this. I’d also like to give this project its own domain but my recreational domain purchase budget is wiped out so if anyone wants to donate that’d be great. :)
