April? Mix

By adbrad · Comments (0)
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

Thanks to the whining of Matt Danner, here’s another monthly mix.

This month’s theme is uncertainty and questions. Specifically about God. I am a Christian. I have been in a Christian family my entire life. But I never want to pretend I have things figured out. The more I learn, the less I know. So, I have questions. And that’s healthy. No one should ever stop questioning things, especially those things you profess to be guiding truths in life. So, these songs are about people asking questions about God, country, Christianity and life.

Enjoy. Because of the lateness of this mix, you might get another one in the coming weeks before May. It may or may not be inspired by a CD I found at my house in Edmond from the summer of 2006. And the cover may include a pair of cargo shorts, as did most of my clothing choices in that period of my life.

It’s Still Me, I Swear

I’ve been waiting for about two months now to move into my new digs. Now that I work for iThemes, I figured it was only fitting that I move everything onto the Builder Theme and especially get everything onto WordPress. I’ve got all new work, a new blog design and a much more integrated layout overall. So instead of having an HTML web site, a blog and the snacks blog all separate and linking to each other, we’re all under one reliably-hosted roof. No more static pages and no more GoDaddy.

I’m still working out some kinks, fixing some code and trying to find a lot of images that GoDaddy apparently didn’t like. But it will be a good fresh start.

Please check out the new site and let me know what you think. Try to break it. Click any link you see. Tell me how much you love or hate it.

Testing…1 2 3

I’ve been working on a new web site in the shadows lately. It’s being built at adbrad.com/test. The plan is to move it over in the next few days. I’ve used the iThemes Builder theme to create the structure and customized everything off of that. It’s a really powerful and stable theme. And yes, I do work for them now, but I believe it just the same. So the old AdBrad.com will be coming down soon, along with the outdated work I’ve sifted through. Check out the test site, or just make sure to check back here in a few days and you’ll be able to see what I’m really excited about.

While you’re waiting for me to get around to transferring the site, here are some wallpapers I made today. No reason. Was just messing around and decided to make it my desktop and iPhone wallpaper. It’s just in Macbook size by default but you can Photoshop it as big as you want around the edge. It’s a solid gray.

Enjoy. Check out the test site. And get ready for some changes.

Saved the colors a bit differently for iPhone. Not sure why. But this is the only one I saved.

Also a tip: iPhone screen resolution is a monstrous 180ppi, so creating wallpapers for it at 72ppi looks like crap. Make sure you save it at 180 or you will be disappointed. This one is 180ppi for your crisp iPhone wallpaper enjoyment.
