I have spent way too damn long making sure everything is symmetrical.
So here we are a few weeks in. I have finished the homepage for ATOMIC RADIO and am working on the single page. I have decided to use self hosted Wordpress for the hosting because, hey, why not. I did want to do something way more simple than that, but I am a perfectionist and I want to let this to look perfect. So, time to learn how to code a Wordpress theme. This will be exciting, won't it? If any of you know how to code Wordpress, for the love of god help me.
As for the design, I want to keep it simple. Mostly because I am shit with design, but hey, I can claim it's artistic choice. Yay art school. I couldn't think of a good color scheme, and the more I worked with just black and white and grey the more I seemed to really like it. I did change the header a few times, and I like it reaching all the way to the edge with black. I made the website way skinnier than I had it too, all the way down to 1020px by 1780px, because it is hard to fit in all of the things I want and stay skinny and not long as all hell.
The logo is my particular favorite, an atomic bomb falling with the old school RKO radio tower lightning bolts. Sheer design genius, if I do say so myself. And it will look pretty damn cool on a t-shirt too, once we start printing them.
Wannabe Art Deco Deliciousness.
So that's all for now. Gonna go back to drooling over Wordpress tutorials to try and make this layout usable. Applied for a Kickstarter today, hopefully we can find some backers and I can make this dream a reality. Wish us luck, my little monsters.
