I figured out why I was having such a hard time trying to design my own website. I kept trying to make it all busy and flashy with bright colors, dancing cats, etc. Which was just stupid. That’s not my style when it comes to design work. I’m more of the clean, sharp lines and lots of white space kind of girl. So I went simple. And I’m digging it. I’m still getting all the content plugged in but most of my portfolio is on there (minus the print stuff which is going to take forever to get online) as well as the contact info. If you guys have time, I’d love it if you’d drop by and let me know if you find any dead links, missing pics, etc. Remember though, it’s a work in progress so everything’s not there yet.

Nothing Is What I Got
Why is it that when working on websites for other people’s businesses it’s all fairly easy for me? The design usually comes quick, followed by some coding and the the inevitable tweaking. But I’ve been trying to design my own site for about a month yet and I just can’t commit to anything. I think I’m putting too much pressure on myself to make it uber and therefore, nothing I’ve done so far looks good enough. I’m about to revert to simple design that will showcase my portfolio and give my rates and contact info and let that be it.
