Bigger things are coming

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008


I am in the final stages of designing the new Division Overlay web site. Every day adds a little more to the design, and I feel it’s just about ready for you. After the design is done, it should only be a day or two for the code to be done. After the coding is done, starts the task of adding the content and testing the site with WordPress.

I am putting a bunch of new things on the site, and on the server. This will allow for more use out of Division Overlay. I hope to have the site up and live by the end of the month.

Thank you for your time, and patience.

With formatting on the other hand, it can be an even greater process to utilize saving time in the long run. Deziner Folio has a great article about a new way to format CSS here. I have started formatting my style sheets this way, and it really does work.
