Ready for Prime Time

The new Eat More Kale site is very close to being finished. I've been so busy tidying things up and fixing cross-browser issues lately, I haven't had the time to update here as much as I'd like.

This is so exciting! You can buy shirts on it already; everything works. Pages should look fine in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Apple Safari.

At this point, I've been painstakingly checking all the pages to make sure they're correct before we can say we've crossed the finish line.

Go check it out! Eat More Kale!

Colors like the shirts



Whew! Lotsa changes this time.

  • Added color sidebar
  • Put sidebar on left
  • Changed background color
  • Added shipping info on some pagese (that's continuing)
  • Tweaked a couple shirt designs
  • Added the "free sticker" box to the sidebar
  • Simplified the navigation by removing links to individual shirts
  • Killed the map graphic on the home page
  • Added some new "buy a shirt' content to the homepage
  • And a few other things...
Anyways, it's lookin' mighty put together. Much better.

New header

Changed the header at Bo's suggestion so it has the famous round green bumper sticker you get free with every T-shirt order, instead of the long green one with the giant lettering on it. I think it looks better. Might have to rearrange some other things to tighten up the whole thing, but it looks good.

Delivery info and Character, price corrections

So far, today, I added delivery info and info on "character" in that each shirt is a little different due to how it's made. This info is on the page where you select a color for a certain design and style. Also corrected a slight error: prices on these same pages for kids long sleeve shirts were listed as $23.00, when in fact they are $18.00; so, all fixed. More to come tonight.

Recent stuff

Bo and I have been talking, and we've decided and agreed to move the blog from the home page to its own page. That makes the home page a bit bare, right now, but fret not. I'm on the job.

Also integrated pics into the "around the world" page, though every single picture isn't there, yet.

More to come!

Picture Gallery

Spent all day yesterday trying to get a picture gallery plugin to work on WordPress. Sometimes you just have those days where everything blows up in your face. But today, success! It's not quite ready yet, so no link to it, but work is getting done. The slideshow does what's needed: thumbnails, previous and back links, and links to full-sized pics. It's all good.

Image processing

Basically just processed a bunch of pictures today to be included on relevant shirt pages, the "around the world" page, and in a slideshow on the home page. Added the shot of Bo's turtle decal in his car window to the Turtle shirt page.

Also revised text on the "About Bo" page (thanks for sending the revised stuff again, Bo) and worked it up all nice.

About page

Worked with the text Bo wrote himself and sent to me. I want his voice to come through, here. This site is all about him and the beautiful, simple shirts he makes and sells. All I did was put it online and create a couple links in it. Read the About Bo page.
