#91: The WordPress Loop Aug 31, 2010

Show notes

There is no shortage of documentation on WordPress’ famous content-spewing structure, but I still feel like there is more confusion and mystery surrounding “The Loop” than there should be. In this screencast I try and explain what it is, how …

#90: Simple TextMate Tips Jul 22, 2010

Show notes

TextMate is a mac-only code editor. Sorry to all the PC users this time around. If you’ve been watching these screencasts for a long time, you know I used to mostly use Coda. Since I’ve been working a lot more …

#89: Organizing a Photoshop Document Jul 08, 2010

Show notes

If you are like me, you are both guilty of seriously unorganized Photoshop documents and appreciate well organized ones. The disorganization isn’t intentional, it’s just born of (if you’ll pardon the likely-inaccurate cliché) being in right-brained creative mode and caring …

#88: Intro to Compass/Sass Jun 23, 2010

Show notes

Ask a bunch of designers what they wish CSS could do that it can’t now, and you’ll get a big list that reads much like the list of features for the Compass/Sass framework. If you are like me, you don’t …

Show notes

I built a site for a musician friend of mine who is putting out a new album. Clearly having playable tracks is important, but the classic issue of having those tracks stop when a new page is loaded comes up …

#83: Thoughts on SEO Apr 01, 2010

Show notes

Fair warning: more rambling than usual. Listen to my thoughts about SEO. What I think I know is that SEO is a series of fairly obvious best practices. A SEO service that helps you with those things can be good, …

#82: CSS Image Switcher Mar 04, 2010

Show notes
