I'm working on a redesign of my personal website, and need other eyes on it. It's easier to work on other people's stuff than my own as I get overly granular on details. #webdesign #mysite #artwebsite #designwebsite #WIP #needcritique
Here is the #pencilsketch from my earlier #art Toot. I love making #dragons blended with other things. This one is rather #fae or #insect like. More #art #mastoart

•Do early design work in small, invested groups
•Design in the open, but away from the bright lights of the big stage
•Iterate furiously early on because once it’s in the web, it’s forever
•Prioritise interop over perfect specs;

#fixmystuff #needadvice I had a pipe burst on me, and my AC vents are on the floor. I was half awake when we managed to get the water shut off so I wasn't sure how much water got into the AC vent.
How do I get rid of the mold smell if I can't get to the water inside the vents?
hey all. With how often scams happen, especially to the older population, please be aware of the signs and learn how to protect yourself.
This is one example.
The other is when people call about taxes you owe, when you DON'T owe them. Or trying to call your about student loans from the government department. NEVER believe this. ALWAYS call the main entity. DON'T use the phone # THEY give you, find it online or in the phone book.

The woodworker who's building our coffee cart recently lost his house, his woodworking tools, and everything inside his house, when their neighbour left their stove on and caused a fire. Titus is from Zim and moved here with his family a while back, working as a general handyman. I set up a crowdfund for him to try to replace his tools and help rebuild his home.

I can't believe C is the most progressive language
Imagine asking a surveyor to erase a gaping canyon from the map they just drew on the grounds that the highway construction budget can't afford a bridge.
Now you have a notion of why software developers hate being told to cut corners in the name of deadlines.
Css help is it possible to make something visible only at certain viewport sizes..... using only inline css?
Made a little someth'n someth'n tonight 'cause I'm still not feeling well and making stuff makes me feel better. They're pretty tiny, the biggest one is 2cm long. Again I wanted something small and light to bring with me to Scotland. So maybe I'll bring them with me!
TIL There are mini truck garden contests in Japan
The “kei” trucks are barely larger than city cars. The goal is to build the most aesthetically pleasing garden in the truck bed

I could just make those three items cards.... and let them go to a sub page. But I'm also aware of the cognitive load that first sub-page could draw on folks.
Okay second go around. Fixed the Font issues, added a few small elements. I'ma bit iffy about the links as a brighter blue or an underline muddies the text and makes it harder to read. It's a design point that I know folks debate on. But the UX research I've seen suggests the blue and the underline are essential parts of current understanding.

I'm so excited to reveal that I'm rebranding! This logo represents a break away from visual artwork being enslaved to 'pixel perfecting'

PSA: if a user habitually boosts stuff you don't want to see, you can turn off boosts just for them without unfollowing them
view their profile in the regular masto UI and you'll see a "Hide boosts from X" in the hamburger menu
this can make the whole experience a lot less annoying, but it's not well-known!
