Design Know-How

6 August 2003

Falling behind by two weeks is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it feels as if I’ll never catch up and the withdrawal pains were merciless.

On the other hand, there’s a wealth of new information to absorb. My interest right now is almost completely focused on the ”how to’s” of Movable Type weblog design. I’ll never be a graphic artist. I’ll never create templates that look as good as Shirley Kaiser’s. She’s got a new design and it looks great. I want to study at the feet of someone who knows the product(s) and techniques so well.

Ben Hammersley’s competition ended and he’s using a new design. I’m crazy about it as well as some of the designs that didn’t win.

Now, where to begin? You know those brochures you get for a 1-day seminar on some subject for a fee of $239 – coming soon to a city near you? I want one of those for Movable Type, plugins, web standards, design techniques, etc.
