Thursday afternoon and evening it was storming here in Houston, the power flickered but never went out. My email was still down (seems to be back up now), so I decided to redesign my husband's website though I had lots of other things to do, filling the creative void I guess. I reworked the entire website, finishing up at almost 7am. I learned to make those pretty little navigation tabs with the guidance of Scott Kelby's Photoshop 7 Down & Dirty Tricks (page 149, I had to look through four books to find the trick) and spent hours adding type, color, etc. Looks good, IMHO. Now I just need to finish redesigning my own main website, especially my Halloween area, which is 98% finished in GoLive, sitting on my hard drive waiting to be uploaded.
Suitable mood music for the weather and introspection included:
Deep by Peter Murphy
Haunted by Poe, one of my favorite albums
Tales of Mystery and Imagination by The Alan Parsons Project, a classic rock album based on the stories of Edgar Allan Poe, a desert island staple
Formica Blues by Mono, haunting retro music that would make a great 60's spy movie soundtrack
Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, another must have
