Think Tank Tattoo

The fine gents over at Th’ink Tank were not happy with their current site and wanted a new design that better suited the style of their studio, as well as a content management system so they could have complete control over their content. So they came to myself and fellow Denver designer, Cristian Whitney, to see if we could help them out. Cristian took sketches from all of the artists at Think Tank and designed a bitchin’ UI out of their artwork. I took Cristian’s designs and assembled them with some lean XHTML, CSS and used Expression Engine to keep it all in order.

I’m really excited I had the opportunity to work on this site, it was the most fun I’ve had designing/coding in awhile! If you’re in the area and in need of some wicked Taz tattoos, be sure to drop by Th’ink Tank and ask for Rosey. You can check the site here!

Info

I designed this site on a Mac. Wrote the XHTML and CSS using BBEdit TextMate. I use ExpressionEngine for my CMS because it rocks my face in and I host it all at Dreamhost because they are righteous.
