Global Domination

Or at least that is what Brian always aimed for.  I on the other hand just strive to get blogger to accept my image at the highest rez.  as I can post.  Currently it has to be 300k and 1800 x 1600 best gotten through a jpg file.  
As you see I am currently working on a global theme for a client and so I shall post several backgrounds that they may or may not like.  They will not be uploading to blogger but will have their own site.  I shall however be giving away the backgrounds that will fit bloggers current specs. These will be found on my Flcker photostream so hope on over if you so choose and pick one up.

Selling Bubby Treats?

No,  I have just finished some graphics and thought I would show how they will look for my client.  She is a great antapanural Mom to be, who has started a fantastic Dog Treat business.  Working with her was great.  She knew exactly what she wanted and after a few email  exchanges, we came up with a sweet logo to brand her great product. Thanks to a quick trip to the Graphic Fairy who has tons of vintage images, she was able to pick some that she liked.  Using her choices and a few images that I had worked with in some earlier projects, I was able to pull elements from this one and that and combine them to create something brand new and special to her.  The result is as you see in this header and background.

Using CSS code

To get the header centered I pulled up the template and when to the editing selection when to the CSS section and used this
a img {margin-left:30px
}
This gave me just the right centering.

Favicon

This often forgotten element of a blog, is a must for branding.  I have taken an element out of her design and just did a screen shot to capture it.  I ran it through photoshop to create a square format that is acceptable for the up load requirements and made sure that the file was less than 100kb.  The screen shot will be an extremely low resolution and makes it perfect for any one to choose an element out of their brand and create a Favicon of their choice. You can see the result in the http address in your browser.


In order to get a grab my button I had to use some basic html  the result is as below:

Rose card

Its always nice to have matching items. As I was creating the background for this blog it just seemed natural to create a card and envelope set. So here they are. The image shown here is the blank card. Left bare for you to address as you like. I have also included a card front that has in simple hand writing (Jane Austin Font) "Thinking of you) . Included is a matching envelope with lovely pink space for the placement of your intendeds address and one for your return address.
