Yes I'm serious

Posted on February 7, 2007.

I received the following message via my contact form over at Designtocss.com today, from YouAreCrazy (dont@f***.me):

"LOL!!!!!!!!! Are you serious???? wheres your portfolio? OMG ahahahahahahahahahhahah"

Yes, I'm serious. Design To CSS is my current business venture, and so far business is going all right. Oh, and I do happen to have a portfolio up, but that's neither here nor there. Where's the joke?

    Domo On!

    Some people are just perpetually clueless.. Good to hear your venture is going well :)

    though he does have a point… you claim impeccable css yet there is an obvious one pixel jog in the gray bar after your name in the header image in firefox/safari…. that is not what I would call impeccable :-)

    anon, 1 point for being too coward to leave a name or URL, and 1 point for claiming a bug that doesn't exist. One pixel jog where? The only thing I see is a drop shadow I added to the image I created.

    anon, thanks for the bug report, I found it. I'll squash it asap. Next time try not to be such an anonymous coward, kthx?

    If I give you a mockup and you can't do it in 4 days, will you give me a refund? ;)

  6. Christian Montoya on February 8, 2007

    Probably :)

    Anonymous bug reporters shouldn't be treated that way Christian. He let you know of a bug that you had in your site so what does it matter if he left an anonymous comment?

  8. Christian Montoya on February 10, 2007

    Kyle, are you saying I was being too nice? Anonymity on the web is a serious problem; people hide behind it to "get away" with saying things that they expect others won't like. I say, if you have something negative to say, just say it and stand by it. Don't leave anonymous comments.

    I'm curious if there's a reason you don't link to your portfolio from Design to CSS?

  10. Christian Montoya on February 10, 2007

    Tim: None of the entries in my portfolio are good examples of what I do with Design to CSS (take a mockup and turn it into CSS). They all involved some level of design from end and I'm trying to avoid that. When I get some finished work to put up at Design to CSS, I'll do it.
