When I get busy, I don't post much but I do check the stats as a matter of habit fairly regularly which causes me to see the title for my last post a little too frequently. Hence the name of this post since I won't be posting much in the next couple months or so, I wanted to make sure I had something nice to look at. I'm ...

I am a freelance web designer, I'm also a undergraduate student graduating this year, I also just started a small business, and am working on some exciting yet time consuming client projects.

I figured this would be a good way to get everyone together and ask / answer questions, make ...
