Or is it?

I actually had the time today to finally finish up Shizucor.com. Boy what a relief it is! I’ve changed the “About” page content as well as added new work samples. I also created an “Asides” page to house my Flickr, Twitter, Last.fm, and del.icio.us feeds. Everything is looking good to me but I’m open to critiques; so please, let me know what you think!

There are still things I need to…

• beautify contact and add comment forms.
• create a better contact form with captcha — any suggestions/tips are appreciated.
• make the “Work” page more consistent.
• add a “sidebar” for the blog.

Easy stuff but I’m done messing with my site for now.

I can celebrate for a bit because I don’t have to worry about a speech until my fellow classmates in Public Speaking have finished theirs. This past week has been stressful but I’m glad I got through it. I found out Tuesday that I was to give a speech Thursday so I only had a day to get it all together. In the end, I was totally nervous but everybody thought I did a good job. I was video taped but I’m never going to watch it…ever.

The real reason for this post was to show the logo and business card I created for a class assignment in Computer Design Basics. It was definitely a great opportunity to create an identity for my future freelance business. (Yes, it really is going to be “Cor Design”.) Feast upon these:

I’m not quite sure about the colors or the typography.

A) This is what I created for the assignment. I was required to have type on a path. I don’t really like the “Cor Design” where it is, though.
B) Without type.
C) I thought I’d let my audience’s brains complete the letter ‘D’ but I realized that it might look too much like Corking Design’s logo.

Here’s the business card:

I’m still thinking of other layout options but this is what I have so far.

Please, feel free to tear apart all that I’ve shown you. I’m looking forward to your comments.
