Take Your Design To The Next Level With CSS3

Inayaili — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 18:13:14 +0000

Last Monday I published an article on the popular Smashing Magazine website: “Take Your Design To The Next Level With CSS3“.

The article is about CSS 3, which is a language used to style web pages. There have been a lot of advances and improvements to it, but some of the most recent properties aren’t yet fully taken advantage of by web designers, and the purpose of that article is to be a reference to people that wish to start experimenting with it.

It made the front-page of Digg and Delicious within just a couple of hours of being published!

I’m really pleased that it also has been picked up by other popular web development sites like CSS3.info and Ajaxian; and Andy Clarke — one of the most prominent names in the field — also made a quick mention about it on his For A Beautiful Web website.

Surf Inn Portugal offers quality and fun vacations to their clients: advanced surfers or just someone who wants to learn surf or bodyboard.

For their bilingual website, they were looking for something fun, colourful and with a surf and bodyboard related theme, that at the same time was easy to use.

WordPress powered website

Inayaili — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 07:25:19 +0000

I’ve just recently moved this website on to WordPress, mainly because it was starting to become very time consuming to update, and also because I wanted to add a News area for the occasional update.

I hope you enjoy the little changes I’ve made and please let me know if you find any broken links!

Togetherville

Togetherville is a desktop application that delivers parent-approved web for kids under 10. It’s a fun, safe learning community for kids where parents remotely monitor and allow what is good and the app blocks what’s rated as bad for the children.

The layout for their website had to be fun for both the kids and their parents, and it had to clearly tell the user what Togetherville was about.

7ª Essência is a bodyboard and surf school based in Lisbon, Portugal. Lisbon’s beautiful beaches provide great teaching ground where professionals and experienced teachers can provide a dynamic learning environment for their students. 7ª Essência needed a new website that translated both their quality of work and their love for the sea.

The content management system for the website was developed with the help of the NJ based Ruby on Rails developer Wynuel Aquino.

Paadal is a music website, focused on indian music. The layout should be simple and easy to grasp, but, at the same time, original and vibrant, like the music itself. The result is a modern website, with powerful colours, that is a breath of fresh air within the sites on this subject.
