Design/Dev/Business Blog
The second half of my insane-o long post, wherein I’ll be discussing the work we’ve gotten done on Fangamer’s design/code since February. A tl;dr summary for the lazy among us:
Again, we’ve got some more banners to show first!
A quick summary of what’s been going on:
There’s a lot more, but this is already a huge post, so I’m actually going to split it up into two updates and post the second half tomorrow. Before I jump into the details: the Banner Contest strikes back with another big update! Here are three of the 12 new entries:
Long time since the last update, but there’s been lots going on in the meantime. Lawyer-Time Incorporation Station is rolling along, I’m getting ready to bring on some investors, Ryan has begun full-time work, and I’m deleting files indiscriminately to make room for the massive Photoshop files I’m working on for the forum. But before that, a long-awaited banner update! Here are three cool ones, but hit the Banner Contest page for more:
It’s been a busy non-Fangamer-related week, hopefully one of my last; been finishing up prior obligations and doing lots of thinking/organizing in my head. I’ve got some information about my goals/plans for this coming week, choosing between Ruby and PHP, and collaborating on a Fangamer logo, but first a preview of some of the excellent banners that have been sent in:
I’ve gotten a lot of work done over the past few days, and finally hit a milestone — my first presentable mockup for the forum! I’ve got a full-sized preview after the jump, but first, a look at some of the awesome banners you guys have sent my way for the Banner Contest:
Got to meet with Dean Axelrod today, it went really well — he’s definitely the guy I’m gonna work with for lawyerly stuff. Also got another huge batch of headers, but there’s too many to post, so I’m gonna do a queue thing kinda like the Halloween Funfest. Also some good news about the forum advertising, which has made a minor recovery from its Thanksgiving slumber. But first, three selections from our latest round of Banner Contest updates:
Announced the blog and the banner contest on Starmen.Net last night and got a pretty huge response. Also went to see a lawyer today — more after the jump, but not before I show three of the awesome banners you guys made :D
