*sigh* i tell ya, my days just keep getting longer and longer and longer.
I’m sitting here staring at my screen wondering why isn’t it 5:30 yet. Well the answer to that, is because i have sooooo much work to do. I have been working on two cases for most of the day, one that should have been completed last week friday when i first brought it up. buttttttttttttttt that’s how things go. anyhow…
i’ve worked with numerous customers over the last few months and one of the things that they have spoken to me is about is web site design. now myself, i dabble a little in web design, after all i am the web contact for my football team. I basically used any and every available tool I could find online (that was free – since i don’t have a money tree growing in my back yard) to make it work. the thing that gave me the most problems was my flash intro. Now i know a lot of people hate flash intro’s but gawd I love it. i mean what better way to get your customer’s attention??? throw something fancy across the screen and watch their eyes boggle. its a amazing the way that the world has transformed in the last 10 yrs. i’ve grown from looking at the internet on a old computer in my father’s spare closet to owning a computer in my home right smack in my living room. i remember glancing over my father’s shoulder wondering how it was that he was talking to people who lived in different countries, and not being on the phone, looking at the sites, amazed at how the pictures would slowly roll onto the screen, to sitting at my desk, downloading programs at high speeds, and getting frustrated if it does not show in 4.5 seconds, not to mention, if i can’t listen to the music in the background, then i feel like i should throw my computer out the window (of course I won’t because i can’t afford a new one, although i could use some touch up parts if anyone wants to donate, please do so)
but in all my worldly thinking, its got me to thinking… if i really wanted to create my own website, what exactly would i need to know to do it, and not to mention maintain it. Would it actually come out the way I want it… more than likely not.. but if i paid someone to do it, then it would work more than i needed. So I’m going to finish my research online to find a site that will customize the site i want to fit my needs and me.
Well back to the drawing board………..
