There's software design, and then there is design. I enjoy software design. It's challenging and fun, testing new ideas and theories, and creativity abounds. Past the design stage, you have to work within the framework of your design. Your creativity and ideas are bounded by that design.
Part of my love for software design, and software development, comes from my experiences as an artist. While I may not be much of an artist, there is nothing like taking a blank sheet of paper (or photoshop canvas) and turning it into something beautiful.
It's like watching your program grow from nothing into a complete program.
So when the opportunity arose to design a new website, I jumped at it. Oh, I'm sure that "professional" designers would find a million things wrong with it. And honestly, I can find plenty wrong with it as well. But I like it, and more importantly, so does my boss.
I spent years focusing on the development end of websites. Its been a great experience doing a little bit of design.
I'll post a link to the site, along with a brief overview of the site, when it goes live.
