New shinning toy

While most people are getting their iPad, iPhone or anything as their toys, I recently just find the enjoyment in developing a Wordpress theme framework :)
Wordpress theme framework
The more I’m thinking about how to make Wordpress more function, the more options I’m adding on it.

Code is poetry

Like Wordpress main site mentioned, the code, from CSS to HTML then now, I’m taking JQuery and PHP at the same times. It’s like Friday everyday.

I have been a year I use a framework to speed up my theme development :) How about you? Did you use any framework???

What are you working for?

The other day my mom asked me “What are you working for living?“, I tried to explain to her that I am working as a web designer. As a web designer, I work on a company’s web appearance and their online marketing strategy. She asked another questions “So you help them promo their website that you did for them?“. Well, that makes me wonder about what I really did. She thought I have diet pill that works, since I’m getting skinny and skinny. Well, I am working late night from time to time, but of course, it’s not the main reason I’m getting thin though.
HTML editing
Most of the time, I am enjoying myself editing those HTML and CSS, and create Wordpress theme. But my passion doesn’t stop there though. I believe, as a web designer, some other knowledge is an added advantage. Especially when a web designer know how to market the web and has a specific strategy for it. Of course, it is easier to say than done.
More WP themes
My girlfriend and I has been developing Wordpress theme for more than a year now. There are 2 types of questions on 2 types of person.

With Wordpress experience

Their question will be “What can Wordpress do beside as a blogging platform?“. Most blogger doesn’t know what Wordpress can do. As for me, Wordpress is the one and only CMS that can ease my life as a web designer. Not only it can work as a blog, it can also work as an e-Commerce, news portal, community interaction and whatnot. All you need is a little creative problem solving skills, and you’ll eventually get there. I did all those before for clients ;)

Those who have no experience as a webmaster or blogger

Their question is simple “What does web designer do?“. Most of the time, these people are those who don’t know what is browser yet. For them, web doesn’t need design, it needs structure, which is true. But I would add that the structure need to be beautify and well planned. That is what I do. I always title myself as a “Web architecture” instead. Not only it sound cool, it also explain most things I did :)

Still thinking what a web can do? Next up :)
