This new website will be a culmination of everything I know and have learned in my web design career since I first started designing websites in 2004. Two months in the making, the new Askew Media website is almost finished! The website is an XHTML 1.0 Strict document using CSS3. I have implemented some JQuery powered features such as a tooltip and toggle slider. The code is very clean, lightweight, and well organized compared to older versions of the site design.

I have been a little quiet lately…that is because I have been working hard at the yearly Askew Media redesign. I am not actually redesigning the site this time, but rather improving the current layout, optimizing the graphics and code and adding a few more interactive features to the site.  The new layout will have a max width of 960px, therefor making it easier to view on smaller screens. The portfolio page will be updated with a new layout to get rid of the flash gallery. Click to see a preview of the new design.

As a web designer, I am constantly keeping up to date with the latest web design and graphic design trends. One way that I have managed to do this efficiently are subscribing to various CSS Showcase websites. These are websites that only display original and valid CSS and HTML website designs from designers all over the world. It’s a great way to stay up-to-date with the latest trends are and to sometimes find inspiration.

I have a rather large list that I view on a regular basis — but there are 1000’s of them out there and new ones are popping up daily. I have compiled a short list of my favorite CSS Showcase websites.
