  Hey bro, really dig the texture work, font replacement, and nav and search look. Just a couple of notes, FYI: You have a secondary sidebar enabled on your about-me page and the shadow on the sidebar headers is killing the design. If you want some tips on transparency I’d be happy to tell you what I know. Anyways, keep up the good work. What are you using for font-replacement, cause I noticed that you can select the text so I didn;t think it could be cufon?

  Thanks. I’m mainly a developer but I have been spending more time lately on web design. I was playing around with the wordpress template. The secondary sidebar is off now. I’m using a free wordpress template, so I didn’t create the transparency on the graphic you’re referring to. If I did create it, I would create it as a 32-bit png (24-bit plus an alpha channel). I do happen to know a thing or two about production web graphics . I was an technical illustrator and icon artist for a few years a while back.
