If you are a web designer, you know the challenge of colors and palette. So many times you see a color scheme on a web site that you’d like to emulate, but it is a pain grabbing the CSS and desciphering everything.
Well, Owen Winkler has come to the rescue. His “I Like Your Colors” tool available at redalt.com, http://www.redalt.com/Tools/ilyc.php, let’s you see the color scheme of any web site.
Great tool, Owen!

We’ve posted a few times about Honest Farm (here and here). Well the site is now live, just in time for the Grand Opening.
For those of you within the Central Kentucky area, please stop by Midway this Saturday, July 8, and join Susie Quick for the Grand Opening of Honest Farm.
We are proud of this site. We really enjoy working with start-ups. The money is not even close to large corporate clients, but the work is satisfying. Big Business clients pay extremely, insanely, almost pornographically well, but they are also secretive. We can’t blog about them like we can our small business clients (oops, let me run and check the confidentiality agreements of our corporate clients and see if I just violated one of them, ha ha).
Honest Farm was our first official Non-Blog Blogs. Huh? Say What?
Susie wanted a blog. She had seen many small organic/sustainable farms use a blog to tell their story. But, she also wanted the standard elements of a web site, like a splash/landing page, and regular/static pages that didn’t have the typical feel of a “blog.” In essence, she wanted a blog, but didn’t.
What is even scarier is that we understood exactly what she meant.
So, check out http://honestfarm.org, and see a small business web site that is a blog, but doesn’t look “bloggy.”
Good luck Susie. We hope the farm is a success.
