Chloroville ver 1.5

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

Chloroville has a new look!

I thought the old design would last for more than a year, but due to a major version upgrade of Word Press and Comic Press, my old design didn’t work very well. So I spent the weekend reworking the website.

Frankly, after creating 20 strips in Adobe Illustrator really made my life easier when it comes to designing new banner for the site. I just copied existing artwork and characters from the strips and made a simple juxtaposition. Oops, now you know I am a really really lazy person.

Comic Press is getting better and better. The new version offers some exciting layout templates, and they make your life so much easier. This time, the only two files that I modified were “header.php” and “style.css”.

If you are overwhelmed with the vast amount of css styles in “style.css”, I suggest that you download the add-on “Web Developer” for Firefox browser. Once you have your Comic Press setup and have one strip posted, view the page in Firefox, and in the Web Developer toolbar, click CSS > View Style Information and you can use your mouse to rollover different parts of the webpage and know exactly which CSS class you need to modify.

Chloroville Store now open!

Monday, June 16th, 2008

I happy to announce that the Chloroville Store is now open! It currently carries T-shirts, mugs, fridge magnets and many more. I highly recommend the Jon-jon T-shirts, because I think you will look very cute wearing them.
