A new dawn, a new day, a new site for me.

I love my job. When I’m not working for clients, I take time to relax by working for me. Now, after three years of puttering on my hobby and a number of rejected designs, I finally found a couple weeks to make this—version eight—a reality.

This iteration is the eighth, because I never tire:

[It] may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. –G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

It is the fourth, because I never quiet:

Throughout the world sounds one long cry from the heart of the artist: Give me the chance to do my very best. –Gabriel Axel & Karen Blixen, Babette’s Feast

And it is the first, because I actually completed this one. I think I’ll keep it for a while.

    Congratulations, Shannon. Brilliant new design, deliciously executed. Absolutely love it. I’ll be visiting often, at which times I may raid your famous green fridge in search of micro-brewed sodas.

    The first word that springs to mind about your site is “cozy”. Very Creative!

    Absolutely amazing Shannon! I’m curious, was this a Symphony site? If so, s2 rev5 or s1.7? Just wondering. But… this a beautiful site! Well done!!!

    @Peter, Adam, and Brian: Thanks!

    @Brian: As much as I love Symphony, I’m actually using a home-grown framework I call Shepf.

    Loving the site, just stumbled upon it from a CSS directory. While browsing the source I came across a rather amusing line.

    [if lte IE 6] div class=idiot Your browser is out of date

    Classic! Keep up the great work!
