Categories: Frugal Template, Site Creation, WordPress

Losing hours (literally, hours!) trying to find a perfect image, or decide on a color scheme for a website really sets me back. Something so simple shouldn’t be so frustrating.  A resource I found today, kuler.adobe.com, makes color selection infinitely easier!

on January 13, 2010
Categories: Frugal Template, Site Creation, WordPress

The first site I’m working on is another locator site, using the same software as thescrapbookstore.com, that  will help people find local farmers where they can buy fresh, organic, healthy, real food.
