Now that I’m attempting to soundtrack a friend’s upcoming video game, and that my original song is being featured elsewhere, I thought it time for my musician alter ego to have a proper home.
This was a fun design task, as it was an exceedingly simple single-page HTML/CSS-only site, and I gave myself the artificial restriction of a 3-hour time limit. Normally I overwhelm myself by considering every possibility, but this time it was pretty much all instinctual, and it turned out well. There are of course far more ambitious ideas for it but for now it’s off to a modest start, just like the project itself.
The nice little embedded music player is 1 Pixel Out’s Audio Player WordPress plugin, modified to work in a non-WordPress site with this tutorial from Mindy McAdams. This Boagworld tutorial was also helpful in making the fixed footer.
