Would you go to a Doctor who still used these?  I don’t think so.  As technologies advance, it is important to make sure that whatever service you are receiving is up to date.  Remember Dial Up?  DSL is so much better though, right?  A web design firm is no different than a doctor, in that they have to keep on top of their industry.

This week I really don’t have much in terms of web inspiration and I think it’s because the 4th of July is tomorrow.  Backyard barbecues, hanging out with friends and family, drunken debauchery, fireworks exploding in your face, 100 degree weather, eating because you just don’t care anymore; that’s what I’m talking about. This is the time of year for fun in the hot hot sun ( that little part was supposed to be sung to the tune of  “Every Time I look Around” by OMC.) I still don’t what’s in his face but oh well.

Enjoy your 4th!

Just a quick plug here - Art Institute of California, Inland Empire is holding a week-long series of workshops and seminars next week, including a speech by the great April Greiman.  All of it is free and open to the public.  This is a great (and very unusual) opportunity for those few of us in the creative community in the Inland Empire.

For more information, check out the Invasion of Infinite Creativity website!

For those of you who have seen me in person… I am a very pale individual.  For this reason I always remember to wear sunscreen.  What I don’t always remember is to make sure my sunscreen is effective. (more…)

iphone 3g

AT&T has pulled back the pricing curtain on the various prices and monthly plans for the new Apple iPhone 3G.  The good news is that the new iPhone is quite a bit better than the original model released just a year ago.  The bad news is, the thing is still going to hit you right in your economically depressed wallet.

even Google has problems sometimes

Firefox 3 Phantom Red Dot Pixel solution

So there is this annoying little bug in Firefox 3 - basically, if you have an image link, you will get this extremely annoying red dot in the upper left corner of the image when you click on it.  This is because you don’t have all the possible ‘a’ states defined, and Firefox 3 appears to be stricter about that than other browsers.  Don’t feel bad - even Google didn’t do it right (see above - look at the blue arrow).  Here’s the fix.

In your main CSS file, add this line:

a:focus, a:hover, a:active { outline:none }

That’s it!  The red dot will go away.  If only all web development annoyances were this easy!

Since Firefox 3 just came out it’s probably a good time to do a recap on some web developer Add-ons that are useful for FF3.

So let’s get the ball moving
