Alpha release: Sharp

Well here it is. Cheerful as it may sound… I’ve spent a good part of 4 days working on this during my holiday. Thankfully, it’s come together quite nicely and I’m quite fond of the result so far.

However, there’s far more work to done on the site! So here’s a quick break down of what I need to fix/test/update.

Content – I still have lots of portfolio posts to add as well as amending the comments section.
The Footer – it needs some love from Twitter, LastFm and Flickr photography streaming in as well as a bit of embellishing.

Diagnotic scripts: domain notice & css diagnostic

I’ve released 2 scripts which aren’t amazing but they’re the start of what can be really useful.

They can be found:- http://www.kaivong.com/scripts/

The first is a css diagnostic trick which looks if images are missing alt tags, inline styling is present and so fourth. I recommend you use this with Stylish (a Firefox plugin), but you’ll have to tweak it a bit to do that.

Second off is a javaScript domain look up aid. It simply looks what domain you’re at and then spits it into the top of the rendered page. When you click it, it disappears. The colour could be nicer… but it’s just to grab your eye for the time being. You could use this with GreaseMonkey if you wanna be really cool!

PartyGaming: Interactive designer

My first role in the web/design industry was working for PartyGaming in their peak, prior to the legislation which ruled online gambling illegal in America in 2006.

I had the chance to work along inspiring designers who guided me along the basics of typography through kerning, letter spacing, layout and grid structure when working on advertising material for various marketing campaigns. Working rapidly with copywriters and comms teams we delivered solutions to many global companies.

More work coming soon.
