Big Joe’s Cafe

Posted in Web Design on May 16th, 2010 by Romelo Itong

Before my regular computer crashed, I was working on a couple of projects and one of them was a website for Big Joe’s Cafe. Fortunately, the site is almost finished. I was able to continue working on the site with the computer that I’m currently using.

In fact, the design or overall look and feel of the website was finished before the crash. You will see the design of the website below. The color scheme used on the design was primarily based on the colors of the logo which are red, blue and gold. Read the rest of this entry »

First In Action’s WordPress Theme

Posted in Theme Design on March 11th, 2008 by Romelo Itong

A few months back I worked on a WordPress Theme for First In Action. The project was to create a blue version of an already existing WordPress Theme. The work was not really that difficult, in fact, it was dead easy but, unfortunately, things were added which were not in the original request.

A problem I encountered while working on First In Action’s WordPress Theme was not even related to the creation of the theme. The problem was with the server because everything was handled by redirects and rewrites. The server rewrites all the files without an extension making it appear like a directory.
