I've cleaned up my theme. I have no clue why I waited so long. I knew by looking at it that there was something funky about it. The font was not appropriate and it was too large. So I did some work with Firebug (http://www.getfirebug.com/), which I highly recommend if you're a webmaster, and found a few flaws in some of my code. I removed some ugly code and cleaned up a few other things. I removed a sidebar twitter plugin, and replaced it with one that requires a bit of PHP work, but it's much nicer IMO.

Also, I've added a few websites that I've worked on onto my portfolio page. I'm going to start working on getting full screen shots, and uploading examples of work that I've done but not published (i.e. templates that didn't go through). Also a few pieces of artwork that I've done through out my career.

I've got more free time at work so expect some more improvements.

Till next time, Gilbert

I've joined Technorati. Not sure what that means yet, because I'm new to the site. I have noticed it around for a while, but I wasn't sure it's value. We will see... Technorati Profile

Hello everyone!

Well I've been running around these past few months. School in addition to joining school organizations. I have joined Students For Justice (www.StudentsForJustice.org) and Focus the Nation. So I've been committing a lot of time to these groups along with homework. I've cut back on my hours at work, but I may need to bring them back up (so many bills!).

So client updates. Airserco never responded to my quote so we'll see what happens in the future, but I have finished most of the work that my current clients have asked for. I've also become involved in running the Students For Justice website, flickr account, yahoo listserv, etc. JC Customs has been finished to the specifications of the customer. Mr. T's Car Audio hasn't though... I need to invest more time in getting involved with that customer and getting data for their shop.

So for anyone who is interested, that is why I never blog!

See you all later!

    I just finished the final touches on my new theme for GilbertSanchez.com. I like this one because it's very simple, darker (but not too dark!), and clean!

    I used to do a lot of fancy tech design, but I really think that minimalism has been popular. It's also a lot easier to do in some aspects. In other, like using the appropriate ammount of white space, can be a big pain the butt.

    Well I hope you guys like my new theme, Stormy Seas! 

New "Dirty Root" Theme!
I think I finished working out the kinks in my new theme. I started working on it last night, and finished it up this afternoon. I worked out the kinks in the sidebar widgets, and everything looks like it's working.


Happy New Year!
Hopefully this year will bring more clients, and less problems
