Free Twitter Icon: Over-Tweeted

download this

Couldn’t resist making a Twitter icon. And it is a little tongue-in-cheek, because that’s how I get down. This guy gave it his all, but he just couldn’t keep up with all the # and @ and DM and RT lingo. Feel free to use this icon however you would like. The zip file includes a psd, a png, and an ai file, so you can tweak it and really make it your own. Enjoy.

Here is the free download (.zip file).

Flip Flop Social Media Icons

I like downloading free stuff, so I wanted to give something back. Here are 10 social media icons. They are flip flops, naturally. Use them however you see fit. The .zip file includes .png’s and psd’s in 2 sizes (I don’t know how well they’d work if you made them smaller than 128px wide). You are welcome to modify them and/or create new ones. If you have an extreme emotional reaction (good or bad) leave a comment. Here is the preview:

download these things

I hope you get some use out of them. It would be great if you credited me (via GreenFlipFlops.com) if/when you use them, but if not, you will have horrible things happen to you. If you’re not following me on Twitter, you should.

Finally, here is the download.

CSS3 on Textboxes

Discovered this “bug”, and its workaround. When applying the -moz-border-radius and the -moz-box-shadow to an input type=”text”, it didn’t work  immediately with their default stylings. Once I  set the border and background styles manually, it displayed quite nicely. Hooray for Firefox!

New j-o-b

Took a look at my site and noticed I hadn’t posted anything in pert near 2 months. Saw that I’ve only tweeted about twice in the past month, too. Busy guy. Or has it lost some of it’s luster? Keep reading…

CSS3 Demo

I love web development. I like using new technologies, especially when it makes my job go more smoothly and produces better looking and functioning web sites. I did a little test of CSS3, just to see what all the buzz was about. Overall, I like where it’s headed, but it’s not ready for prime time yet. I will be happy when it is! Most of my observations are written up on the page, so check it out. Feel free to comment here and let me know your thoughts. Are you using it yet? Why or why not?

Check out my demo page (feel free to use a few browsers for the full effect): CSS3 Demo

Monster Bass

Monster BassI caught a hawg! I love fishing top water, and I’m fortunate that my parents have a nice pond with lots of vegetation and fish in it. Everything came together on 6/13 for this pig to get hauled in. I didn’t have a scale, and I didn’t measure it, but I’m guessing it’s in the 6-7 pound range and about 22 inches. She was really long, but not too thick since it’s after the spawn. Cocoa the dog was not harmed in the fishing expedition, but she loves to get a close up look when a fish is landed.

Where did the feed for comments go?

I’m trying to build a network. A group of people I like to follow online. People I trust and respect. People I would want to work with one day. I want to have meaningful dialog with people, across lots of web sites. I read some ungodly number of blogs daily. I contribute via the comments when I think I can help. And now that’s frustrating me. Keep reading…

Photoshop Tip: Move Layers Up and Down

Really quick, I just discovered this, quite by accident: ctrl+[ moves the active layer down one step in the layers palette and ctrl+] moves it up one step.




i am gabe

Gabe Harris, that's me

I love web development and I specialize in front-end development. If you think that means "just HTML" you can go play some place else on the internet, that's fine. While I'm neither an artsy designer nor an über-technical programmer, I am comfortable in both worlds. I work at the intersection of design and server-side programming with proficiency in HTML/CSS, JavaScript/Ajax (thumbs up for jQuery), ASP.NET, php (including Wordpress and CodeIgniter), Photoshop, and Illustrator.

I follow modern web design trends and techniques, but I'm not overly concerned with being bleeding edge. I browse the web with Google Chrome, I use Firefox for some of its development features sometimes, and I cringe at the thought of Internet Explorer (can you guess which browser renders this site best?)

When I'm not geeking out on the interwebs, I love playing with my kids and going fishing. Feel free to learn more about my experience, or see my work, or Facebook me, or follow me. Glad you stopped by!
