Remember me? The one that wears house shoes to Lowe’s?
I’ve been slacking on the blog. Again. Mostly because I’ve been busy working up stuff for design clients so the time that I usually dedicate to blogging, I’ve been dedicating to building websites and logos. I’ve been thinking about overhauling my website and even changing the name from VisionSpeak Studios to Carolina Design Café. Most of the stuff I do is local by word of mouth, so the design café idea gives it more of a local, casual flavor. Of course before I change names, I have to build a site and build a site that I love. I figure once that’s done, it will have been a few months anyway, so at that point I can decide if I want to spend more money on a domain name… and a different host. I like the host that I use now for the design site and this one, but it’s so. So. Slow. No one can send more than 3mb via email to me because of their server specs and sometimes it will take days before I get an email that’s been sent to me. But the host I use is free for life after you pay the initial set up fee, and you can’t really bitch about free.
I need to start work on my Dad’s new site idea, which I’ll be happy to unveil, once I’ve got it completed, although since I haven’t even started it might take a month or so. Dad’s site is a fishing venture and I need stock photos! So if you have any great pictures of fish, or fishing stuff… (Especially fly fishing) and you don’t mind signing a release form, (which basically means that you won’t sue me for using it later and I won’t put your head on a penthouse models body) send it my way. I’d love to use it on the site. Pictures of kids fishing might be good too. I haven’t mentioned it to the dad yet, but I’d like to write a column for a kids and fishing section of the site. My first e-zine gig. Even if I had to assign it to myself.
