More Tips to Use Color in Your Site
May 10th 2010 by
As I have previously mentioned in my other posts on color, color is one of the web designer’s most indispensable tools, because it is one of the main building blocks of a superior website. In addition, color can make such a statement, because one way to make your website more visually appealing is to have an appropriate color scheme that utilizes just the right amount and variation of color to clearly express the purpose, the personality, and the meaning of your site. Color is a great design element to experiment with, and it is such an amazing way to make your site pop. Below you will find my additional list of simple tips to improve the use of color in your site. I have written before about tips to use color in your site, and this post is merely an extension of my previous post that I wrote about one year ago. I hope you find my advice useful! Enjoy!

Comments OffInterview: Younger Designer, Nicole Dominguez
Apr 29th 2010 by
We are continuing with our interview series, here at Admix Web, where we are publishing one interview per week of fellow web designers and developers. I am still requesting designers and developers to nominate colleagues in the field, or themselves, for an informal interview conducted by myself. It is my contention that these interviews will not only give us great insight into the people behind the designs, but they will also help with networking, collaboration, and generally getting to know each other on a more personal level. We are still looking for interviewees, so please contact me if you are interested at hlamarche[at]admixweb[dot]com. This is week seven of our interview series, and this is our first female web designer in the interview series, and many more to come we hope! This week we had the pleasure of interviewing an amazing young web designer who has taught herself from the ground up starting at the young age of thirteen. Our first featured female interviewee, Nicole Dominguez, is a nature design talent, but she puts a lot of effort towards being as successful as possible in the field! Here is her interview! Enjoy!
