JennPhoenix.ca - in Brief
I spent about 40 minutes earlier this week designing and deploying JennPhoenix.ca for my sister, who does piano lessons. [caption id="attachment_467" align="alignright" width="400" caption="Jenn's New Piano website"][/caption]
Probably the things that are most of interest to highlight: I used some free icon packs, which I will be attributing in the next version of this website, which I found via Smashing Magazine. I found the repeating background image using AVA7 Patterns which I will also be attributing (they also do not require attribution, but I like attribution when it makes sense). I've got a contact form ready to go using Jquery Contactable but I was trying not to do any PHP for this site, so I haven't actually made it happen yet. I guess I could replace the PHP with something else. For the font in the header, I use a Google Web Font, which is awesome.
The breakdown on time spent is as follows:
- Write the html and content. ~10 min
- Come up with design. ~15min
- Find icons / fonts / resources. ~10 min
- Write the css. ~5 min
Altogether, I'm happy with how this microsite turned out
