Expand!

Good morning everybody! Today I really want to make everybody aware of our other social media accounts. Now, I know this seems so cliche and all, but in reality it is the only way you can get your name out there. Anyone who has tried to start an organization from the ground up knows about it. "Shameless Promotion" as some call it. We also know that we don't have the largest amount of entertaining content yet, but this is really so we can get a group of people behind us and sort of root us on, letting us know that there are real people out there beyond the limits of our everyday lives. So, if you are someone who has gone what we are trying to do, or if you are someone who just wants to give out a lending hand, contact us in some way saying something that you would like to see in the future. This means the world to us.

We are the Waiting

As the sun rises over the Atlantic Ocean, Belliavis Studios still does not have access to their website. The 72 hour mark is about to pass and if we still can't reach our web host, I will have to take matters into my own hands and make a few calls. It's a bit frustrating but I am sure once it starts to work correctly it will be a blast.

I'm currently working on a website for a small aromatic business, and I must say it is looking pretty nice. Once I have it finished I will make sure to link you guys to it so ya'll can check it out. It's a quick project, but it will certainly get the job done for our client's needs. Brooks and I are both also anticipating another web project from a wood working client. We will be in charge of Facebook promotions, re-vamping his current website, and hopefully anything else that he claims needs to be fixed. 

A busy start to our spring of 2013!

Enjoy your day!

John :D

We could also use some followers on Twitter! We will follow back ;)

Typefaces!

Good Morning Internet!

I am now typing in a new font, a much better one than the horrific default typeface. I have recently been learning about typefaces and how different ones are used for different situations. Here is a simple lesson:

Serif: This typeface has little curves and details at the end of most letters. Popular for long paragraphs of text due to the flowing nature of the curves.

Sans-Serif: A typeface that has straight lines that create a cleaner text that stands out. This typeface is used mostly on computers due to use of pixels and how the text fits perfectly in them.

Monospace: A very popular typeface for those coding because of the highly structured style of the letters. Each letter has a specific height and most heights are similar, at least among lower cased letters and upper cased ones. There is much more space between the letters (so if you are typing up a research paper, see if you can use this type of font, your paper will fill up those ten pages much more quickly (: ).

I am in love with the Arial typeface, mainly because it resembles my actual hand writing the most. When I am writing I don't produce those fancy stroke marks at the end of my letters, I create very distinguishable letters that are consistently the same size. I'm sure most people are the same way too, especially women and their large bubbly letters. I also think that this Sans-Serif typeface has mainly existed due to the creation of screens. It seems that people of my generation write very differently from our parents. Maybe this could be the cause of so much exposure to Sans-Serif typefaces, or it could simply be an age thing.

Brooks and I are still waiting for our web hosting to be activated so we can get working on that website! We are very excited and we have big plans ahead. My college semester is coming to a close, meaning that I will have all summer to work on these projects. This will be a fun. productive summer.
