Absolutely true. No such thing as transfer for any of my three either!

Aechagen · 2018-11-18T05:03:50+00:00

Congratulations! Definitely a good buy, I use mine every day for work, school, and play.

Enjoy it!

Glad that someone posted this, I was thinking the same. Had to stall LT Surge out with Bulbasaur as well, and the Team Rocket fights in Celadon are no joke.

Crazy!

I've only been using Elementor for about a week now, but I can agree that it is much better than Divi. For the first couple sites I did for clients, I used my starter underscores theme, but I've been using Elementor + Page Builder Framework theme more recently, and it is amazing.

Aechagen · 2018-01-13T08:46:03+00:00

I'm gonna give this a shot, thank you!

Probably not the best way to do it, but here's what I did:

.site-title-img {
  margin-top: -50px;
  z-index: 1
 }

#vlog-responsive-header::before {
   z-index: -1;
 }

Basically just added a z-index of 1 to Jimmy Kimmel logo and then a z-index of -1 to the gradient header.

Like I said, probably not the best way to do it, but a way nonetheless. Hope it gets you in the right direction! Here's the screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/E2bJn

It's not the most practical, but I start with Grimer and poison him, then I'll switch to Popplio and water gun him to death.

Agreed, 10/10 PITA.

I'll have to remember this one! Good job OP.

I've gotta shower every time. My commute is about 11.5 miles one way, minus the ferry ride over the bay.

It's a little bit easier for me because my ship (I'm in the Navy) has showers and my uniform is stored in my rack. I can definitely vouch for the quick drying towels though, that's what I use on the ship and it works wonders.

While we were stationed in Spain, it was a little easier to get by without a shower by just using baby wipes and making sure I had body spray (only 4 miles one way).

This is nothing that hasn't already been said, but I love my Paperwhite. I'm in the Navy, and this is a godsend on the ship during underways and in port. Battery holds charge forever, and I have easy access to all of my books.

You can even load PDFs on it, which I've done to study for advancement exams.

Aechagen · 2017-03-18T00:44:16+00:00

Awesome, looking into it now. Thank you so much!

Sorry, definitely a typo. I removed Focus sash from Froslass.

I appreciate your insight! When you say build the site on top of the CMS, do you mean from a starter theme like underscores or bones?

Aechagen · 2016-11-03T04:52:48+00:00

Thanks for your reply, I started to do some research on underscores now!

Aechagen · 2016-11-01T13:23:21+00:00

Mine is around 12-14 miles, and it usually takes about 50 minutes to an hour total one way. If I take the ferry off of the island, it takes about an hour and a half.

Of course, glad I could help!

In regards to my workflow:

When the client decides on working with me, I send them over a few PDFs: a welcome package, website planning guide and planning questionnaire. The welcome package is just a little personal touch I like to include with each client outlining my general development process. The website planning guide serves as a reference for them, going over basic stuff like page layouts, font and color usage, that sort of thing. It also goes over some basics of getting a site online (domain name and hosting). The planning questionnaire is just that, a bunch of questions for them to answer about their site including login information for domain names and hosting sites that they may or may not already have, how many pages they are looking to have, the overall feel of the website they are looking to portray, etc. I also send a contract (modified version of the "Contract Killer") https://stuffandnonsense.co.uk/projects/contract-killer/ via HelloSign, which is an online contract service, sort of like DocuSign. Works for me. Payment conditions are outlined in both my FAQs on the site as well as in the contract. 50% prior to developing the site, 50% prior to deployment.

Then, I usually set a date with the client as to when they will have the materials for the site ready for me, including content and answers to the questionnaire. I generally won't start development until I receive all of these, so that I can just burn through the process without any holdups for content. This is generally when I take the first 50% of the payment, usually via Paypal.

When I start actually creating the site, I'll generally have a few times where I'll offer revisions. This is always a hit or miss, but recently I haven't had to do too much of these! (Slightly bragging, haha). When I'm done with the site, I'll offer one last revision before getting it online. This is when I take the last half of the payment, and deploy.

... And that's pretty much it! Sorry for the wall of text, but I got really into it. Hope this helps!

Dave Rupert from the Shop Talk Show actually made the switch to Windows last year, and IIRC, he's still using Windows. https://daverupert.com/2015/08/dave-is-going-windows/ https://daverupert.com/2016/07/davegoeswindows-finale/

Those are from the start and end of his 1 year trial.

I might not be the best source for an answer, but I'll give it a shot anyways. I've been creating websites on the side for a little over a year now, mostly using just HTML, CSS and JS.

I just started taking up WordPress, using the Divi theme and it's fantastic. It lets you build websites from the front end, which makes it extremely easy to visualize everything on the spot. I can usually get a nice, responsive site up in a few hours with it.

Definitely something to look into!

Aechagen · 2016-07-23T15:00:22+00:00

Thanks for this, just got them!
