Still not convinced of the purple button, but that's a minor change.[/QUOTE]

Your colours don't work that well together. Maybe try something from, [url]http://www.colourlovers.com/[/url]

So I'm making a museum/charities website in my spare time to gain some experience (plus it's fun), but I just feel like it isn't all that great. It's only really a start but some critique on the site as is right now would be great and very helpful, specifically it's about its ease of use as well looks. I'm pretty amateur when it comes to this :v:.

Space things out more and give more padding to your containers, it feels super cramped. If you do that well the site will look 100x better.

Slowly but steadily coming together: [url]http://bolteri-dev.herokuapp.com/[/url]

It now displays offers on the home page (they're still missing pictures, but they're actual objects from the database). The offers page is still kind of messed up but I wanted to show the home page, which should show up nicely and also resize well down to a mobile viewport (try resizing the browser window!).

Also, if you manage to find out how to add new offers, feel free to mess around. It's no problem since it's just a data set I use for development and I'll eventually wipe it. I will probably implement authentication and authorization tomorrow. Oh and please let me know if you figure out how to do anything that shouldn't normally be possible.

My site is terribly outdated and skeuomorphic design is being weeded out with flat design trends on the web and within desktop environments, so this afternoon I drafted something new.

Here's the old:

And here's the new:

Though this new design is flat, everything will animate in which should give it a little extra charm.

I'm getting kind of nervous about what my curriculum vitae should look like though. Generally CVs have a more emphasized educational outline, and I never finish high school, or obtained my GED, though I'm currently finishing my associate's in computer science...

Show work. Education doesn't matter as much as the talent you possess.

the background should be a light gray or white

More work on Minecraft server website, what you can see here is the management tool for players chunks they own,
the map is rendered by the game server chunk by chunk and then using rsync it updates the web server and the map is
constructed using some JavaScript to align the images.

So I just published my first Rubygem! It's not strictly web dev right now but I wrote the gem to use on a website and also my first fully TDD anything. It's a gem for downloading and working with highscores from Jagex's Oldschool Runescape. Take a look: [url]https://github.com/sambooo/OSRSGrabber[/url]

I like it a lot!

Sent you an embarrassingly tiny pull request.

When I looked at the profile of the person who sent the pr, I thought some random guy had heard of my get of all things AND had the same webkit-node idea as you. It quickly occurred to me I should sleep at some point.

Congrats. I actually read it when it was up there and thought it was a good article.

var emitter = new Events;

emitter.on("save", function(next, foo){
    // do stuff
    next();
});

emitter.on("save", function *(foo){
    // do stuff
});

emitter.emitQueue("save", ["foobar"], function(){
    // done!
});

Implemented queue functionality to my eventemitter. Allows you to use generators and regular callbacks together while having them work seamlessly.

Hey guys,

I just submitted my site to hacker news - [url]https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6258282[/url] - please take a look and let me know what you think :)

[manolis]

I've been really down lately and have no idea what to create. Anything I start I just give up on because I hadn't thought it out beforehand. I really want to practice my web development skills but I have no ideas. Where do you guys get your ideas?

Coming up with ideas sucks. Normally I just find something that frustrates me and make a 'fix' for that, or just make something you think would be fun to do. I guess a simple idea to practice your web-dev skills would be your own personal homepage/website.

It's a very nice idea, but the interface is too similar to Medium IMO.

[QUOTE=rieda1589;41929743]It's a very nice idea, but the interface is too similar to Medium IMO.[/QUOTE]

Thanks :) Which part of the interface? The squares with background images are quite similar to Medium's collections but I was actually worried I'd end up copying Medium too much (because I think their design is perfect) so I did try to consciously stop myself haha

The list view specifically. But I agree, Medium's design is goddamn near perfection.

Ahhh yeah I see the similarities :( Do you think I should change it a bit so that it's less similar?
