    Designing for yourself

    We wrote this on June 1, 2010. Comment and share below!

    Gasfabrik web designIt’s one thing to design for a company, band, artist etc and a totally different beast to design for yourself.  You are truly your worst critic.

    I’ve been meaning to update our little patch here in the interweb for quite some time, give it a new layout, new design and throw some cool new tricks in there. It’s taken a few revisions, a few bites into the laptop, a few scrapped ideas… you get the drift here.

    In the end I guess it’s “just” a matter of throwing it out there, however “not perfect” it is and however “not the absolute cutting edge” it is.  It’s a matter of decision and sticking to it.  We web designers have an analytical bunch to impress, namely, other web designers.  You want the respect, you want the kudos and all that.

    We all get stuck in position like that, once in a while.  We just got to learn that if you’ve already spent so much time on it, it must be half decent and it’s time to let go, make a decision and stick with it.  Most of the times, you can always come back to it, tweak it etc.

    So, sitting here in the sunlight in Czech Republic, I write to you and say, that I’ll definitely make a decision on the Gasfabrik web design… soon, I promise.
