Maybe a Photolog?

You could even use the theme as a photolog. This particular picture was taken on a garden tour of Old Louisville. The picture has a width of 856px and a class of “left”. This floats the picture to the left and the width ensures that it stays inside the grid.

I don’t know, I kind of like the picture.

No, I was talking about the format as a photolog, not the actual picture. The picture is quite nice.

Well, I don’t happen to like the picture. Here’s my long-winded reason.

It is exciting though to finally have a space where I can write about web design and interact with the community. I’ve waited a very long time.

Let me know what you think of the design, criticisms and praises, and if you see anything that looks out of place please let me know too. Thanks for stopping by!

It took years to get to this point. Not this design necessarily, but having a presence on the internet for the purpose of business. There is no telling how many hours I’ve logged sketching, designing, thinking, writing, sketching, coding and sketching (I made a lot of sketches). You’re viewing the result.

The inspiration for this final design came in the layout of a Table of Contents of a magazine. However, there were many different iterations and sketches in the design process; and at many points the design would begin to head in an entirely different direction. These side trips would lead to a dead end and I’d then go back to more what you see here now.

Coming up with a name was a complicated process also, which involved a name change about half-way through this multi-year process. The first name I had was 86 Designs, but for various reasons it just wasn’t working, so I left it in favor of this one, the Design Canopy.It took years to get to this point.

Dear Anonymous 3,

That’s just a large block of text taken from The Design Canopy and placed there so viewers can get an idea of what a lot of text looks like.
