Brave New Network and Website Updates

August 3, 2009 at 8:52 pm | Brave New Network, Meta | 1 comment

I made a few changes to the website that you may or may not notice. One of the most significant changes was I removed the “net” that caught users browsing in IE6 or older and redirected them to update their browser. The reason for this being I actually got some feedback from people who said they could not update their browser due to workplace restrictions, etc. etc. One of the cooler things I added was a stronger integration with Twitter which you may not notice right away. I also updated my portfolio a bit. (more…)

CSS Hover Pseudo-Class

This is my first post in over a week, but I’ve been pretty busy lately. That being said, I haven’t had much time to work on the coding portion of the website tutorial.

CSS pseudo-classes are used to add effects to selectors. In this article we’ll discuss the “hover” pseudo-class and how I used it to achieve the hover effect on my home page.

Completed!

This website is now completed. I finally finished up on the “about” page and added the “work” pages. “Work” includes a portfolio of some of the websites I’ve done, some of the graphic design and print design I’ve done, and some of my articles. Go check it out! Although I have to admit I haven’t cleared up the IE6 issues yet (IE is such a headache). Also, the second part of that Java tutorial might not be going up as soon as I hoped, but my goal is to get it up by the weekend. I’m also planning a full-fledged website tutorial that will take you through the process of designing a website, coding it, etc. I’ve been thinking of doing a 3DS Max tutorial as well. Who knows when I’ll actually start working on either of those though. The past two weeks have been pretty busy for me.

Just a Heads Up

I just wanted to give a heads up that I’m working on getting this website compatible with Internet Explorer 6. To my amazement, there are still some people using that browser, so I’ll do my best to get the website…presentable…in the very least, as soon as I can.

Also, I’m working on a Java tutorial for beginners that I’m hoping to get up later this week, so stay tuned!
