Week 35, a little later than usually because I just got home. But without further delay, here is this weeks Friday Focus. Enjoy the upcoming weekend everyone.
Sites of the Week
My personal favorites from various css galleries over the past week.
Leading off this week is Mark Boulton Design. Simplicity wins in the case of this portfolio. I really dig the look of project and client pages – providing a summary of the project and what the client had to say. It is nothing mind blowing, but it gets the job done in an extremely clean manner.
Next up is down2night, a place to search for nightlife events and hot locations. The site uses lots of blues and rounded corners, but it is one of the better looking “night life activity finders” I have seen. They even have a pretty cool heatmap of party and event locations.
And rounding out this weeks three is Biola. An absolutely great looking site that will appeal perfectly to its intended audience. More college sites should take a route like this.
Digg Weekly
Picked from the most dugg articles over the past seven days.
Design – Art of the Business Card
A large gallery of design business cards to use as inspiration. There are over 400 of them.
Programming – Ultimate HTML hex code list
A large list of color hex codes from Colourlovers. Pretty useful if you want to quickly grab hex codes for a variety of colors.
Keep in mind…
A few days ago the Devlounge community went live. You don’t have to spend every living moment there, but feel free to occasionally stop by and participate in some threads, ask for help, or suggest new topic ideas. Also, if you haven’t noticed we now have multiple feed subscribing options. While of course we’d like to see you subscribe to the full feed containing all the Devlounge goodness, additional ones are up there which could be helpful in certain situations (putting a Devlounge feed on your site for example, because no one cares about our site news). Just give these things a look over if you get the chance.
