design – jamie3d

I’m studying up on responsive design and decided to design an exceedingly simple but functional theme for my site.

What you’re seeing right now is just the base theme that I will customize further once I’m happy with the framework.

Try resizing your window or viewing this site on an iPad. You’ll notice that the navigation changes, the sidebar becomes the footer and the prev/next posts buttons become sticky and stay with you when you scroll.

Update: Oct 30th 2011
I’ve removed the sticky prev/next buttons as they don’t play very well with the Android browsers… Booooo!

Update: Apr 10th 2012
I’ve further simplified the design for aesthetic reasons. The sidebar is no more and the typography has been changed a bit. The layout is also no longer fluid. It is still responsive in that it uses media queries, but it’s not ‘flexy’ like it was before.

A while ago, I saw the I Love Sketch Video for the first time and I was blown away. I kept hoping that it would not be one of those university projects that us mere consumers never get to experience (see the Jeff Han demo with the large multitouch screen)
Recently I received an email from Seok-Hyung Bae (that was probably addressed to all the people who emailed him over the past year or so asking about the project) and it said that they’ve got a new paper out and that the I Love Sketch/Everybody Loves Sketch is currently in alpha form, and he’ll let everyone know when it’s in beta form.

I really can’t remember the last time I got this excited about a piece of software, and if you haven’t seen it yet, I’ve embedded the newer video below for your viewing pleasure: Read More
