I am still working on the main portfolio, but I have gotten the blog up and running. There is only one entry and I was having some layout issues that (hopefully) are now fixed. Using IE 7.0 at 1280x800 resolution everything works. If anyone has issues viewing the blog on another browser or resolution, holler and I'll see what I can do. I know that I am supposed to test on all resolutions, monitors, browsers, etc, but everything looks horrid in any other resolution. Unless it's a game meant to be played in a different resolution. So I need your help.
Again, there is only one entry, but the blog will basically contain information about what I am working on, include step by step changes made, tutorials used, and more. When the portfolio itself is up it'll contain everything that is worked on in categories, my resume and other information pertaining to things that are to be contained in a portfolio.
My friend says she thinks my idea of creating an intranet for families is a great idea. She is very tech-friendly and is one of those who wants a digital calendar on her refrigerator so that everyone can enter their schedules and have them readily available. I may be inclined to make her an intranet and she can help me work on issues with it (if she has time) and give me insight into what to expect. This could include everything from her work schedule (she works like 3 jobs, sometimes more, plus being a mom of two and a wife), her husbands work and school schedules, the kids' summer, school, activities schedules and account user names, passwords, bill paying information such as scheduling, amounts and possibly budget forms.
With help, such as her testing and giving me feedback, I could definitely make a go of such a thing. The issue would be families taking the time to enter the information into the intranet. I suppose I could offer that service as well and sign a non-disclosure agreement of some form and charge a small fee for updating it.
Anyway, this post is mainly regarding the Portfolio Blog. Here is a link: http://blog.mcmwebdesign.org. I am off again. I need to fill this with projects and graphics and other things. Laters.
