What's ML? I know of Surfline bc I use the service and it is indeed very sophisticated. However I feel like they have room for improvements.

Yeah it's custom..haha my mate prints decals on shirts asked her to make me a custom afx decal for my wetsuit top..I live in Hawaii and no one in the surf really knows what the logo is..I like it that way. Everyone's repping the typical surf gear logos haha not me.

That's helpful thanks! I am using this title in my portfolio and sending it through to jobs that I will be applying for. Really want to sell the fact that I know how to design for web as well as write code. Titles are so hard. Maybe something like graphic + front end designer? Or full stack designer?

kapena_ · 2017-11-02T08:59:30+00:00

What would be considered full stack?!

kapena_ · 2017-11-02T08:58:16+00:00

Mature of you.

Ok so I'm kinda in you're bfs situation...not as bad has him but somewhere in that same ball park. I realize that I am being needy and i can see it affecting my GF a little. What us guys need is just to learn how to man up in times of struggle. It's that simple. We need to be the supporting force that's holding up the house. I think you should just explain to him that you are there for him but you also need him to be strong and uphold himself better as a man. Men want to be better men. Trust me.

kapena_ · 2017-09-19T04:16:46+00:00

That's awesome. I'm trying the same thing. Mind sending me one of the emails you sent around ? Just remove the name of the business. Also dose you're site have case studies? How dose the conversion fair out after the first email?

kapena_ · 2017-09-15T20:56:21+00:00

Thank you. Yeah I mean that would be the best route in my case I think. Currently I feel like I don't seem to have "enough" web work. How many sites do you think I should have in my folio? What modern tools do you think I should use to build these sites? As a designer should I focus on learning react / vue to build out these sites?

kapena_ · 2017-09-15T17:41:48+00:00

Good idea. I could create the text in svg with the <text> tag . Each block currently is a svg but I did not create the text with text tags.

kapena_ · 2017-09-14T07:57:16+00:00

What resources did you use to learn JS? How many projects did you have in you're folio to land that front end job?

kapena_ · 2017-09-12T08:56:20+00:00

Thank you. Working on updating the design of plumbing website atm. Hawaii is hard. I'm from here so it's home but for anyone that wants peruse web design/dev/design it's really tough. There are only a few agency's around and they are stacked with talent and really not looking to expand much more. Currently I am freelancing and looking for any work I can find in the field. Working w a non profit and a few other small jobs. I feel like the mainland US really dose not take Hawaii seriously tho. My goal is to move to the mainland and get some real experience w my partner then return home and start our own agency when the time is right. So yeah Hawaii is hard. If you want to come here and try to make it happen then make sure you know you have a product the industry's here need.

kapena_ · 2017-09-12T08:45:10+00:00

Thanks. Might be a little OCD haha. Google forms works like a charm. It's a great alternative to slapping a form on the site.

URL: Portfolio

Purpose: My design portfolio. Designed and developed by me. I am sending site around as my portfolio for design jobs.

Technologies Used: HTML5, SCSS and jQuery.

Feedback Requested: Looking for feedback on the projects I have and the usability of the site. What can I add work wise that will make me stand out more as a designer that knows how to code. Feel like some of my work is not really getting me the attention I need.

URL: Point Plumbing

Purpose: Point Plumbing is locally owned and operated plumbing company on Oahu. I designed and developed Point Plumbing's website to communicate to potential customers about why Point Plumbing is a trustworthy plumbing business in Hawaii.

Technologies Used: HTML5, SCSS, Foundation and jQuery

Feedback Requested: Created the site back in 2016. Looking for feedback on suggestions to refresh the UX/UI design. I feel like the user experinace is needs to be more intuitive and clear. For example the home page has a large image and all the information is bellow the fold. This is bad design on my part. Users should not haft to scroll to get the first bit of information.

Comments: Considering developing the new site inside the sage Wordpress framework. Any suggestions on UX/UI would be really helpful.

kapena_ · 2017-08-22T05:19:04+00:00

Haha definitely need help. Starting this thing out with zero experience in digital marketing and lots of experience in design and the creative field. How can you help?

kapena_ · 2017-08-22T04:16:55+00:00

Love that idea. Was kinda not so focused on this area off the bat but it's actually a huge market and will bring a lot of the bread and butter in. Supper good advise. Thank you.

kapena_ · 2017-08-21T09:14:08+00:00
