Today we launched a new template that you can buy on the @CreativeMarket. We spent this entire month on the template, getting the concept and the style we wanted. We are happy to release it, but have a little issue with the template coming together as a whole. After releasing we began fixing bugs and making upgrades to the template. I am posting here to ask you to help us find issues you see with the design. One that was already pointed out was the header text being a little difficult to read. We have a fix in the work, by granting the users the ability to customize it with video bg and bg-colors.

If you could kindly provide some feedback, that would be greatly appreciated.

Working on an app icon for a company project. It's a project about home listings in NYC. I built it on top of this beautiful template by Chris Tauziet. Created using Adobe Fireworks.

Click on the image to see larger version with more details.

The icon was updated based on feedback. Check out the image below for updated icon. We choose to go without text due to rendering issues on some devices.

Working on a simple login page for work and wanted to get some opinions before submitting it along with the project for review. What do you think? The login form is centered to the page and is responsive. Since we hated checkbox's but still needed that to carry out the "remember my login" function, we decided to cloak the checkbox into a button. We are also providing the option to login with social networks, but we didn't want that over-powering our own login.

Any C&C will be appreciated.

Few days ago I got a hold of Sencha Labs's CSS beautifier project. Since then, I wanted to add a skin to their beautiful tool. Today, I had some spare time and added the skin I used for my personal website to this. I think it came out pretty well. What do you think?

(See the footer for a link to Sencha Lab's Github source)

The "CSS Beautifier" title has been updated to stand out more. Please see the live link below.

This is a new template we are working on. Built on Bootstrap, this template uses Font-Awesome icon font as a substitute for the default Bootstrap icons. The header's skyline silhouette is from the WordPress Fireworks Canvas experiment. The text below the navigation is CSS animated and changes every few seconds (based on Codrops tutorial). Note that the images are placeholders and are not created by us. We have plans to lighten the load time by using as much CSS as possible.

In January of last year (2012), we launched the Fireworks Police. Without a single voice in the community, in a haste, we became one of the top Fireworks resource sites in the world. Soon after, we were rated by numerous source as the top 3 resource sites to have bookmarked for Fireworks. It has been a successful year, not just for us, but for the Fireworks community as a whole. But that does not mean we’re satisfied yet.

We started the Fireworks Police with a goal, to bring Fireworks to the lime-light. Though we have made a name for ourselves, our goal for the software is far from complete. There are millions of people who still do not know the benefits of our wonderful software and many companies who reject the software as useful for resources on their site. This is something we wish to change in 2013. To achieve this goal for the year, we are partnering up with numerous companies and people to bring you some wonderful projects, resources and features.

The Fireworks Police V3

September of last year we took a rather unique approach to a resource site. We implemented a blog style that we felt was more suited for our resources and made the website easier to navigate. It was successful in achieving this objective, however, it did not improve the loading of content on our website. This was a big problem for the team as want to get our resources out to you fast and have it ready when you need it. That is why we created this new version of our website. Welcome to the new and improved Fireworks Police version 3.0.

In this update, we took advantage of our old style and worked on improving the loading speed, readability and accessibility. We integrated old framework with the Haze framework to create a website that provided you with easy to read content, while providing authors with a simple interface for posting.

One of the main changes you will notice right away is the navigation. With this version, we worked on improving how we categorized the internal pages of our website. We moved all off our wonderful free resources under a freebies link that will drop-down to reveal our child-categories. Next we added a premium section that highlights the numerous contents we have for sale on the web (read below for details on premium content). Next we made it easier for you to locate our library of tutorials and added a new category for coding tutorials. This year, with the help of numerous Fireworks community members, we plan on bringing some wonderful written and video tutorials on how to use resources, extensions and going from Fireworks to HTML. Finally, we made it easier for you to get in contact with us, read the terms and conditions and find the privacy policy.

Another change you will notice is the subscription option on the internal pages. Last year number of you have requested this feature where you will be automatically notified by email of new posts on our website. The subscription option will be same through out on the internal pages of the site, therefore will be easy to find. This function will allow you to do exactly that. But instead of getting just a notification, you will receive the entire article via email.

We all use social icons on our website to get others to find our "social places." But most icons I find on the internet are very bland doesn't have much of any hover effects. So I decided to make my own. After I uploaded it to one of my projects, many friends and followers wanted a copy of it. When a friend suggested that I could make some money from this, this was the expression on my face: $_$ .

This is called Social Sprites Icons as it is created using a large sprite filled with...well social icons. They rotate upwards on hover and have a nice active state as well. Today I decided to upgrade the icons and added a circle icon feature. I also released a WordPress widget on there as well.

Any C&C on this kit will be very helpful.

Sprites created using Adobe Fireworks.

Another section complete for the Catharsis template. This is the single blog post that helps bring even more features to the template. Images and blockquotes overflow to the left as shown in the screenshot above. On hover the meta section turns orange (font-color is orange and icon background color orange).

Working on a new theme called Catharsis. The idea is to make it easy to read like a magazine/blog style theme but with the features of a corporate theme. This is a section off of the about us page where the buyer can highlight the team members. The template will come with a bunch of pre-made fun items that are all responsive. Coded mostly out of css and some javascript, this will be a lightweight and easy to use theme.

This is a section from the View theme I am working on. For this section, I wanted to create a step tab. Each tab serves a different purpose and as stated in the title, they go in order.

• The dashboard portion provides the basic information on what the site is about,
• Step 1 is the content you see,
• Step 2 will be a drag to upload and standard form upload
• Step 3 will be a series of social icons, url to the image and bb code/website integration code.
