New business cards!

July 14th, 2010

My new business cards from moo.com got here in the mail. The nice thing about moo.com is the possibility to make each card unique (they also have a public API) and the great quality of their product. I used the header image overlay from my custom colorable theme to generate different color variations, and then cut that up to get three variations from the wavy gradient.

It's been about two years since I registered happypixels.net. What started as a simple blog has now become the web presence for my business as an independent Drupal consultant, and the website needed to be updated to reflect that change. Besides registering happypixels.com, I have also been reworking the design and decided to launch the new theme before continuing with other changes.

No, I'm not talking about trees as a data structure, I'm talking about branches where you can actually hang stuff. Apparently people liked the coat-hanger tree in the hallway of our apartment, and those who couldn't see it in person asked for pictures. It took more time to decide how to make it than to actually do it, but we had a lot of fun doing both.

Updated theme and traffic boost

theme

As you may have noticed, I redesigned the theme of my blog. It's still based on the same idea, but I started everything from scratch again so that I could do it right. The Happy Pixels theme is now a proper Garland sub-theme, and the base image for the color module integration is much cleaner, with more subtle effects.

A color-enabled Garland sub-theme that I built for this site and released to the drupal community. Design and base image generation was done using inkscape.
