Although I am new to the blogging community, I hope that this blog will fit right in. I am very excited about this project because blogging is something that Lara has introduced me to, and I am quickly learning all about it and the whole culture. The purpose of my blog is to talk about things that surround us everyday, but we do not necessarily take time to appreciate. There will not be a set theme for this blog; it will be about anything and everything.

On another note, Lara and I are pleased to announce that we have been asked to develop a website for the WCC of Greater Rochester, a medical group located in Rochester, NY. Lara and I are very excited for this project, as it is a large medical practice.

And so the holiday season begins! I know it’s my favorite time of the year… the cooking (cookies, roast ham, fudge oh my!), the family (you know you like sitting by the Christmas tree reminiscing with them), and the overall cheer everyone shows during this time. What’s not to love?

We’re very cheery over here at Blog What Design too. Right now I’m working on Morgan’s company website: After Eleven Apparel. I’m very excited to get things going; the design is going to be very stylized… kind of “rocker chic.” We’re also finishing up one professional project, and just taking on a new one!

I found a very cool little gadget over at problogger.net today; it’s a digital picture frame that Google has sent out to their top Adsense publishers! Pretty nifty eh? Apparently, Google hands out quite a lot of gifts during the holiday season from laptops to bean bag chairs. I need a friend like Google!

Happy Holidays!

We just finished up a great project for Danielle over at ALittleLucky.com. Take a look at the portfolio item.

Danielle was excited to start blogging and wanted a blog that was stylish and feminine. She provided us with a domain and an idea; we had lots of fun filling in the rest! I reffered her to one of BWD’s favorite hosting companies, Site5 where she set up an account and I installed a new copy of WordPress for her.

For the design process, I started out with a basic black and white vector graphic I had found, and then moved on by adding various manipulations of the graphic and some cute icons and graphics. The result was a flower filled, feminine design that was stylish and extremely clean cut.

The features her new blog uses include: the random quote plugin and an advertisement section. I used the font “Miss Brooks” to add a delicate touch to her design. 

Thank you to Kate and many others for helping to remove all of the typos from this website… because you know, I’m the tpyo queen.

*joke joke*

But on to other things. This afternoon I added in GenocideCurriculum.org to the proftolio. It’s a personal project of mine. If you find history interesting, check it out here.

Well, it feels good to finally be out of all the shmancy fancy testing and going LIVE for the entire world (internet?) to see. Blog What Design is proud to offer you our service, and excited to finally join the vast group of blog design studios out there today. So what’s so great about us? Well, we plan to provide ALL of our clients with fresh and modern design in an extremely effective manner. You see, we’re a little bit obsessed with design over here at BWD: it’s a perfectionist thing. So when it comes down to YOU the client, we want to make sure everything is just right. We’ll hold your hand every step of the way if you’re new to the process, or run right beside you if you know exactly what you want. At Blog What Design, you’re the boss.

Could you believe that we already have a line up of customers? Here’s a few: Right now I’m working on Danielle’s new blog, A Little Lucky; we’re planning to have her blog launched later this month. Next up is Morgan’s project, a commercial web site for her new company After Eleven Apparel. Christian and I are both extremely excited to finish up and get to work on these new designs, and we’d love to take on yours. Currently, our schedule is a little tight, so be sure to get your requests in quickly once our project order form becomes available. We’re anticipating it to be launched within the week. If you’re project is extremely pressing, stop over at our Contact Page to submit your project specs.

Thank you to all of our past and current customers! We really appreciate all of your support in making this new company a reality!

Expect to see big things happening soon -
