Our next meetup will focus on using CSS to create stunning visual design. We will look at sites that employ CSS in new and creative ways — and discuss techniques, hacks, and more for creating pixel perfect designs that WOW. Our Guest presenter this month will be Aaron Baxter.

Aaron Baxter is a print and web designer who’s been working with CSS and web standards since his stint as a freelancer in late 2003. He continues to study and experiment with CSS and is now focusing his efforts striking a balance between cutting edge and practical web techniques. Inspirations include Arnaud Mercier, Eric Meyer and the guy who created the Power Puff Girls.

When he?s not on the web, Aaron can be found doing street photography or shooting events in the Houston area.

He currently works full-time as a web designer for Topspot IMS, an industrial internet marketing firm.

I Have Blogger's Block
I was chatting with my friend Laura Mayes tonight - explaining how I have Blogger’s Block.  Tomorrow I head to San Francisco - and I’ve already stocked up on awesome reading materials for the plane - including the Complete Works of Jane Austen and Katharine Hepburn’s Autobiography.  Laura’s advice:

The best way to get out of a block is to read good writing.

And to go to Northern California.

 

Check. And Check.

 

Sometimes life just works out.

Link Policy

My personal link policy is as follows - I only link to the blogs of people I actually know in real life (with the exception of the "Other Erica's" section). I think when you add someone to your blogroll there should be real meaning attached. Most of the people I link to are not only acquaintances - but folks I am lucky enough to call my friends.
