We are excited to announce the launch of the new and improved ProfitMax Chemical website!

Today, I was trying to figure out how to do something new (for me) in Craft CMS: How to order a list of entries by more than one custom field.

In general, I shy away from tables on webpages for two primary reasons:

When it comes to paid CMS's here are my top choices: ExpressionEngine and Craft. ExpressionEngine has been around for a long time while Craft is a new up-and-comer. Here are the advantages that both of these CMS's offer:

Successful websites are constantly being updated.

This morning as I was reading through my Twitter feed I came across a statement from a friend named Casey Graham. His statement was something like:

Just a quick post to share this free textures website that I found. The textures are great, but even better is how great the website looks and how easy it is to find the right texture for you! Great work Subtle Patterns!

Have you ever visited a site only to quickly close out of it because your eyes can't bare to look at it? You can't find the information you need quickly, and well, you just don't have the time or patience to dig through the mess on your screen?

Everyone has their favorite web browser these days, and it's easy as a web developer to get so comfortable using one in particular (Google Chrome for me) that you forget to look at how your site looks on all of the other major browsers. If you don't check your site on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, AND Internet Explorer (IE) before handing it off to your customer, though, don't be surprised when you get a call about how a particular page or section looks totally wrong to them.

I'm an Abilene boy. Born and raised in this place. Never left, probably never will. I have a degree in Math, no concept of advanced economics, and all I know about business has been observed from mentors and personal experience. All of the blogs I write must be framed within this context. If not framed within this context you may perceive that I actually know what I'm talking about.

It's always fun to celebrate when a new website is launched! Today we made the new Proforma Promotions Group website live at www.proformapg.com. The website was built with WordPress using the Blitz commercial theme. We worked extensively with our clients to customize the theme for their company. One of the biggest changes we made was with the Portfolio pages. Everyone loves pictures, so we setup the Portfolio page to highlight as many examples of their work as possible! You can see the final results here.
