New Site

2010-03-25

… and new name! This post marks the opening of Orange Byte Design. As I get content on here things will start to flesh out. Here, in the blog area, I'll be featuring articles that focus on my areas of expertise: Animation, Art, Design, Programming and everything in between. The work area will fill up rather quickly over the next few days as I gather and upload my past projects and portfolio pieces.

This site is the result of what I can do when I don't know what I'm doing. I set out from the start to build my own CMS (Content Management System) and Blog. With almost no documentation on how to go about building a CMS I tackled it as a blank slate (I didn't even know the programming languages needed to get started). After several setbacks, major epiphanies and long nights (~15 hours a night studying/working) I managed to learn how and successfully build the site you see before you. I plan to further refine the code and repackage the CMS for distribution in the future.

Also if you notice any bugs or strange things the site is doing or if it looks broken on your browser please feel free to email me at Curtis@OrangeByteDesign.
