Wanted: Featured Post Slider Plugin

For today’s design update, I’m still looking for a plugin or something like it for the Featured Post Slider for the featured post section in the Home page.

As you can see, there is still no featured post section in the Home page. This section is supposed to occupy the area right below the CODEX DEV logo, as depicted in the Home Page design comp.

Do you know of any plugin that I could use?

Design Comps – Home Page & Single Post Page

Here are the design comps I’m implementing for the new design, one for the home page and another for the single post page. This is still incomplete (notice the missing footer) and still open for changes and revisions. I hope to get comments and suggestions from you regarding it’s design, usability and functionality.

Don’t be shy, please leave a comment.

Write When Inspired, Rest When Tired

A few days ago, I attended the first ever blog camp in Cebu. I was very excited to share what transpired during the fun-filled event and I was very eager to talk about what I learned from the keynote speakers. I even posted on Facebook that I would write a post about it on my blog, on that same day.

I was tired and hyped at the same time.

I didn’t mind about being tired and sleepy. I didn’t care if my eyes were only half open. The increasing tension on my neck and shoulder didn’t bother me. I didn’t care about anything else except writing about the event — at once!

Becoming a Web Designer & Developer

On the 6th day of May, I publicly proclaimed (via Facebook) my interest in becoming a professional web designer & developer. One of the paralyzing questions I asked my self was, “Where do I start?”

“Start at the beginning”, said the voice inside me.
