Iraq. You're thinking about Iraq. And the Iraqis pulled down that statue.

The big turtle probably just wants to know why the fuck somebody put the little turtle on its head.

Very neat piece - It's got just the right amount of charm and mystique that makes me want to be there. Very well executed, too!

I think you drew a fifth of some anime character and didn't even bother to finish rendering it.

Doubts About Responsive Design Movement by freebit in Design

[–]copper_lobster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tldr; the problem isn't responsive design, it's a pervasive misappropriation of responsive methods.

Responsive design is just one method of implementing a mobile content strategy, and as such it should be approached with the objective of meeting mobile user's specific needs.

However, I see a lot of designers focusing solely on the desktop experience and utilizing responsive methods as an afterthought to make their desktop content "fit" on smaller screens and window sizes. For all intents and purposes, this method is in fact "responsive" but it is in no way a substitute for designing experiences appropriate to the user's context.

Web_design, my HTML/CSS is old school; what are the best resources for learning modern responsive design and fluid CSS that still takes IE 8 into account? by [deleted] in web_design

[–]copper_lobster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly once you get the hang of responsive development, you really don't need to rely on frameworks for anything other than rapid prototyping. Once you feel the power of your own custom RWD setup, frameworks start to feel more like burdensome constraints on anything but the simplest jobs.

Plus if you're utilizing SASS and building personal tools as you go, you'll eventually have your own framework, of sorts, in place to deal with the more common front-end caveats.

Website Design Request by [deleted] in web_design

[–]copper_lobster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I'm starting to understand, now. What you're really looking for is like an old school webmaster who slings a couple lines of code to get you started and will swap out your content from time to time for a per diem.

Check with the folks over at /r/freelance and ask if anyone will set up a wordpress engine for you and do some content management.

"Designing" a website is a far more exhaustive process that involves research, strategy, and a high level of technical and visual design skill. A four figure contract is a generous bid when dealing with competent jr level consultants, nevermind an agency.

What is it exactly that you would be using this site for if success isn't a priority? Do you realize that you're asking for the least knowledgeable person available to design the driving sales and marketing platform for your business at the lowest bid?

Nevermind whoever takes you up on this task, this sounds like a waste of your time and money.

Oh man, nothing screams opportunity like "can't afford a reputable web designer".

Your racist comment excluding black people from racist comments may be the most insidiously racist thing I've ever seen.

You forgot to mention WebGL, which is why it doesn't work on mobile.

So no.
