Footer In Web Design
Designing a creative footer is as important as working in all the other areas of a website.
Although the footer usually is the last thing on the page the visitor sees it and it shouldn’t be forgotten. Quite the opposite: I believe that we, designers, should make this bottom area design stand out. For many years copyright information, the website name and, in some cases the navigation links were the most common and sometimes only elements found at the bottom of most websites. Nowadays footers became more sophisticated including more information and also beautiful and creative designs.
Two Special Wallpapers
It’s been a while since my last post. I have wanted to write this post for weeks but I’ve been quite busy this last two months. Sometimes 24 hours seem not enough :-(.
Today I have two special wallpapers to share with all of you. As some of you already know some weeks ago I made a contest to participate for two Dribbble invites. I received a lot of talented portfolios and after a hard selection I finally chose the winners. Once the contest was over, I invited them to participate of a post here on my blog and they both liked the idea.
Contest Winners And New Wallpaper
Thank you so much to all of you that participated in the Dribbble Invites Giveaway. Today I announced the two lucky winners on my Facebook page .
I designed a new wallpaper to encourage those who didn’t win this time to keep trying and don’t give up. But anyone can download it. The quote from Tim Rohn I used can be applied to many situations in life. To never give up doesn’t mean that you should wait around for something to happen, it means you should work to make it happen.
By the way congrats again to:
Joseph Ruano and Fernanda Castro . Welcome to Dribbble!
Hope you like these new wallpaper. Feel free to download the one that best suits your monitor resolution.
Two dribbble Invites Giveaway!
Two lucky winners will get an invite to join Dribbble. I suppose that you already know what Dribbble is but for those who still don’t it is an exclusive community of designers and illustrator. It works like any other social network where instead of tweets you post shots (400 x 300px images of the designs you are working on). If you enjoy your creative process Dribbble is an awesome place to show and improve your skills. If you are a designer or illustrator, trust me, you would love to be there.
A few days ago I got 2 dribbble invites to giveaway. I am so thrill to finally be able to give somebody else an opportunity.
Learn Wallpaper Reloaded
Some of you may remember the “Learn Something Today” wallpaper I posted one year ago. Last weekend I felt like working on a new design for my desktop and I remembered an idea I had some time ago: to make a second version of that wallpaper. It occurred to me back then that a “Learn From The Mistakes” design would be the perfect companion for “Learn Something Today” but I never had enough time to sit down and work on that idea.
