I’ve joined Cornerstone Media Group of Atlanta as the Senior Web Designer and Front-End coder! A bit stale as far as news goes, I’m going on 6 months already. The reason I bring it up now is that we’ve just relaunched our website. This new look is not just about new appearances and aesthetics, it is about a new approach. The redesigned website has new features that make the user experience easier and more intuitive. There is a dynamic portfolio and the company blog is tied more into the site and more into the business. Most employees are signed on as an author on the blog. We’ll do our best to flood the inter-web with good content related to what we do and our expertise. Three of our most popular business solutions now are highlighted buttons that can take you straight to landing pages with more in depth information on each solution; SEO, Web Design and E-Commerce. The redesigned website offers a freshness that comes with change. We hope you enjoy your new experience at cornerstone. If you’re in need of any web services chances are we’ll have a solution at CSMediaGroup.

Circlecube Freshens Up … for you!
Thanks for your patience as I’ve been tinkering with the theme, layout and css of circlecube.com.
I started with a free theme from Justin Tadlock, Options Theme, available at theme hybrid. I’ve changed that theme quite a bit, from restyling it to fixing bugs I found and updated many other things on the site as well. So the reason I’m going on about it is I think I’m finished… and I’m asking you to let me know if you see anything that looks odd or fishy, or even just want to make a suggestion or comment on how much you like/hate the redesign. Comment on this post or contact me!
And as always, if there’s something you would like me to write about or have questions you can also contact me. I’ve even set up a poll in the sidebar showing post ideas I have which you can vote on and encourage me to write the one(s) you want most first! So let me know what you want, it encourages me to write more as well. And be sure to subscribe to the circlecube rss feed so you won’t miss anything that’s coming up!
Sally Kolar Photography
Sally, a great photographer in the Augusta, GA area wanted help putting up a website that was easy to maintain and looked professional. I helped her out and set her up with a wordpress install, some essential plugins and a few themes! She is ecstatic!
Check out the site here: http://sallykolar.com/ and book her if you’re in the area and want great photography!
Update to WordPress 2.5
Circlecube Blog is now enjoying the speed and ease of the latest WordPress, 2.5 is hot.
Enjoy! I know I am, thanks WordPress
Note: So far my theme and every plugin are functioning perfectly!
Circlecube Polls Readers for Content
Just added a poll plug-in to the site!
I’m polling readers to see what they want next, in regards to posts.
I have so many post drafts and even more post ideas and instead of letting them roll out in my usual leisurely fashion, I figured I’d let you prioritize them for me…
So vote in the poll to let me know what you want!
Feel free to contact me if you have any ideas that I haven’t listed yet. I enjoy knowing I’m writing for someone who is interested!
[poll=2]

Update:
This poll is closed, and I’m working on the winning post! Integrating Google Analytics with Flash!
So keep posted, or subscribe to the RSS for immediate automatic free update.
I’ll keep a running poll in the side bar of the site so keep voting and suggesting your Most Wanted Posts!
New Theme for Circlecube
I went for the basic and popular Qwilm 0.3
Theme hardly based on huddletogether.
This theme was designed by Lokesh and destriped and built by Oriol Sanchez
Over the next while I’ll be massaging the look and feel (mostly CSS) to fit my needs.
Please let me know if you see anything odd or broken, or if you have any other comments, thanks!
Update: Color Scheme adjusted and some minor layout changes. A little PHP tweaking, but mostly CSS.
Welcome to Circle Cube Studio
As I graduate the Digital Media program in the Lamar Dodd School of Art at The University Of Georgia, I’m faced with making a portfolio site to contain all/my best work.
This comes as a dilemma to me because as much as I’d love to include all my work, I can’t- and also I feel that most, if not all, of my best work is ahead of me- and who wants to make a site that will be outdated very quickly. I’ve had a personal blog for some time now, and I figured that the blog database approach would solve my issues. Blogs have their own organization so I don’t have to redesign my ‘drawings’ page every time I want to add a drawing to the mix. Plus a blog is dynamic and therefore easy to update, so it’s always fresh. And blogs have themes and templates so changing the whole front end look isn’t like starting from scratch. So rather than make a site with pages and organize a portfolio by content types, I’m using the idea of tags. Many projects I work on become involved in multiple categories or encompass many different ideas simultaneously, or even no ides… I’ll be using tags to let things overlap where they may. A blog also is fluid and evolves over time, I’m just graduating- how do I know what I’ll be focusing on a year from now, or even a few months. And my last, but perhaps most interesting point about blogs, The Blog is the New Resume.
Anyways, welcome to the site. Hope you find it useful. I always enjoyed drawing geometric shapes and combining dimensions with optical illusions. I’ve been drawing these forms I can only call circlecubes so I naturally got excited when I saw that circlecube.com was an available domain… so enter circlecube, welcome to it – A place for all things Evan Mullins.
Feel free to leave any feedback… and I’ll make it easy to get in touch with me through this site!
