@fatroll gets a makeover

Posted by Kristine on March 1st, 2010 · Filed Under: Posts

Welcome to the newly redesigned @fatroll site.

Finally, the day has arrived!!

Wonder why I’ve been so quiet lately? Well, here’s the reason.  I’ve worked goodness knows how many hours to have the site upgraded. From the design to the code, we have a fresh new start!

If I may toot my own horn for a bit, I’m pretty excited about this little project. Talk about a very steep learning curve. Prior to working on @fatroll, I had very little experience with this type of stuff. Luckily, WP documentation is pretty stellar and “learn on your own” is kind of my forte.

Of course, I couldn’t have finished it without the help of the following amazing guys.

It’s like I just won the Wordpress n00b award for “completing her first WP template”.

Appropriately, I have drafted a hypothetical thank you speech. .

To:

Cesar Torres – for the amazing design & last minute hack-a-thon (love Cupcake Carl)

Michael Cummings – for hackin my code and sharing your WP skills with me

Juan Sequeda – for playing with the database and translating geek for me (oh, and the copious amounts of coffee)

Andrew McCollum - for getting me started and cleaning up the ugliness of this code

I’m really lucky to have such brilliant and patient guys helping me along the way. Trust me — this stuff isn’t easy — especially when you’re working with someone who has NO real programming skills.

We have a couple more surprises up our sleeves. But, first — homework.
