StSi 1.2.5 Coming Soon, Affinity 1.0 Coming Soon
Updates on Stunning Silence: Stunning Silence 1.2.5 is coming soon and will be released as soon as possible. Fixes in this version include support for centering images as well as general fixes. There are no security fixes, and you are not required to upgrade (but you are recommended).
Stunning Silence 1.3 will come sometime in the future and will include support for more color schemes, multiple sidebar support, as well as other fixes and features.
Updates on Affinity: Affinity is a brand-new WordPress theme to be released soon after I finish working on a client’s work, release Stunning Silence 1.2.5. It’s super-elegant and has a layout sure to be tasty and pleasing.
Once again, I’m being bogged down by work, and I have way too many things to take care of. If you want updates on any work, please subscribe to my feed. Thanks!
The New Design
Update: The site design just changed… again. Most of this stuff isn’t true anymore, but it’s still good design advice.
I’ve just upgraded the entire Brandon Wang site. It now has a much more fluid design, and it looks a lot neater.
In the designing of the front page, I used a lot of images. I really wanted the website to look exactly like it should look, so people without Myriad Pro would notice some differences if I just used text. I also considered using the Flash-text technique, but being a user of Flashblock myself, I realized that probably wouldn’t work out.
So the answer was to use images, and for everything on the front page, I used images. Everything, from the background to the links, was created using images.
The next step was to design the secondary pages. I decided I would kind of branch off of the front-page design. I quickly whipped up the background image I used for the main page, but without all that “Welcome to…” junk. I really liked that light effect, so I just used that. Continue reading this »
A Clean Slate
This is a placeholder I have written to aid in designing the blog.
This is the blog of Brandon Wang. There’s nothing here (as of writing), but soon this will probably be filled with nonsense and ranting from me (the irony). I’m still working on the design for the website, as I was using this before as a CMS. Now, however, I wish to be focusing on writing.
If you want to read some writing other than this placeholder, you should probably visit my literature, technology, or Chinese blogs. They probably actually have something there.
In case you don’t know me, I am (at time of writing):
- …eleven years old.
- …a fast typer.
- …a decent coder.
