Accessibility

User’s Experience

It’s been sometime since I posted on the site. I had to many distraction’s‚ with my band‚ designing a few site’s and trying too fine the right cms for me that is easy to work with‚ and is accessible. So that my Client’s can update their site’s‚ one that you don’t have to hack to make it accessible.

I’ve been reading a lot on accessibility article’s the last month. And found that with the law’s that are changing. That when I design a website I will make the site’s as accessible as I can and they won’t lose any of there graphic’s. Lot of it is done on how you write your mark-up from skip to navigation to content and when you resize the text that your site does not break. It is a lot to think about but in the long run you want to reach as many people you can. So that when they visit your site either to buy your product’s or to read your blog they’ll keep coming back.

Just what I’ve been talking about I’m going back and fixing some of my mark-up and css so that I can obtain the standard’s that I pride myself in to give as much and more to accessibility‚ everybody has a right to surf the web and enjoy the content that we put out as designer’s. “Take pride in you work”.

Winter Suck’s

Back here in Oklahoma‚ with the cold front’s coming thru bringing freezing rain. And this weekend with more snow. My day job is almost at a stand still. Being a mechanic in Norman‚ So I’m spending most of my time reading all my book’s that I got for Christmas‚ which is not a bad thing‚ the sooner I’ll have real good perspective of web design. Right now‚ I’m reading Simon Collison Beginning CSS Web Development which I would recommend‚ has a lot of good insight on css‚ xhtml and designing of your page’s. To met the demand that the web require’s. But back to the weather we normally don’t have cold front’s like this. Back to back‚ It make’s it miserable. Can’t even ride my Harley‚ the cold would not be bad‚ it’s just the ice on the road’s. At least my band is off for a couple of week’s before we have to start playing‚ at the club’s again.
