Alright so I've got a few ideas for how I'm going to build my new site, and I would like your feedback on them. So far the idea I like the most involves me putting a wedge shape in the upper left corner of the page and having it float there. So if you click one of the buttons on it, the rest of the page changes to show the content and the navigation wedge is still there. The wedge would have a picture of me in it with my name over it and the buttons would line the curved side of the wedge. Each button that you mouse over, changes my facial expression & such on the wedge. I know people usually say to stick with a simple page layout, but I want to know what you think.
Also, I'm thinking of going with Orange & Light Blue over a Dark Brown background. I'll post some pictures of what I have already as soon as I get back to the work station.

Revving back up
Alright! Great news everyone. Looks like I'll be working at the GDC again this year as a volunteer. I can't wait to see everyone and that awesome city. This one week is literally the start and end of the John Spellman Calendar year. Everything builds up to the conference. So of course, the blog is going to be getting a healthy injection of life as I start focusing my time on landing that perfect job!
Goals:
Website re-design - I already bought a few www.PeopleGames.(org, info, us, net) domains, so now its just about getting the website reworked and looking good.
Portfolio - Take the design ideas I have and make screenshots and a short description. Avoid trying to over explain just one part of the game and instead reflect the whole experience of it.
Blog - Keep track of it all here.
I'm really excited to get the concept online for the puzzle/city sim I've been working on. When the website is online, that will probably be the first project up. A touch screen game after that. Until then, I'm definitely going to need some sleep. Hopefully I don't make a habit out of posting at 3:20am :)
