Please stay calm, I am too busy this time. My wedding is coming, but I still have a lot of things to do. I have to say sorry to whom waiting for my redesign from the beginning still then. I stop my design, coding and theme building, but my blogging. Next time, I will introduce my grid system building progress to you. For who cannot find principle of elements organization, make sense for blocks relationship and force your content follows your hierarchy design, I hope it can help.

About the current theme I am using for my blog, it’s presentation still contain some bugs if viewing in IE, but it’s design is bright. I love it, and hope you too. Thanks for coming and stand against my stupid English. ^^

Did I told you I am a big fan of Khoi Vinh? The impact of Khoi Vinh’s Grid system concept on my point of view of web design is very high. I build my Typography & Grid system under Khoi Vinh & Mark Boulton’s instruction, you can find the recipe here. I also add some tips from Kimberly Elam’s Typographic Systems of Design, and here are the elements:

1. My Grid System:
   1. Canvas: 971 pixels
   2. Unit: 99 pixels
   3. Total of Units: 9
   4. Gutter: 10 pixels
   5. Total of Gutters: 8
2. My Typeface:
   1. Font family: Verdana, Georgia, Arial
   2. Font for site’s title, site’s slogan, content’s title, menu small text, small link: Verdana
   3. Font for calendar: Georgia
   4. Font for content’s body: Arial

Almost done, hah! In my next blog, I will introduct my wireframe to you.

I have to say sorry about my lack of update in this blog. I have just brought an apartment so I have a lot of things to do.

After deleted old blogs, I suddently realized that I dont want to see this theme any more. I planned to redesign my theme. Redesign means I have chance to implement my elements of design into this WordPress theme design work. When I really begin, I will list-out all tasks here. I dont have any experience about WordPress theme design, so give me yours in your comments.

I hope you all happy with my new beginning.

I am so sorry because some referenced links point to my old blogs could not be found. I have to delete all of my blogs. There are 3 reasons:

1. I want to improve my English writing skill.
2. I want to share my experience about the web, that’s why I create this blog. More than that, I want to gains knowledge about the web by some professionals I know’s feedbacks. They cant speak Vietnamese, but English.
3. I dont want to see stupid comments any more. If you cannot understand what I am writing, I dont have any idea to make it clear for you. Sorry about my English, and your English too.

Last words, just want you to know that your old comment in my blogs has been saved before I deleted them. I will treasure it in my localhost, I swear. Welcome back and leave your notes for me. Thank a lot.
