Day 36

Log: 5:30pm - 6:30pm

Having a hard time today... between James getting fired and Rich being all over my stats I've been trolled pretty hard.

Today I still do not have access to either the website or hostgator, so I won't be porting anything over.  This gives me the opportunity to focus on design work.

For now, think SIMPLE.

VARIOUS DESIGNS:

DESIGN I WANT:

After playing around for a while to figure out how to get this "full page height" feature, I more or less figured out that my boot-legged version of salient is simply out of date and that is why it does not have it.

You can actually see the option in the page header settings right here, and I do NOT have this feature comparing side by side... i imagine this is in row settings as well.

Very cool feature on there about particle affects... might be a great way to entertain viewers while the video is going.

Also, looks like my <div> hack for the opt in has a problem -- the video doesn't scale and so the opt in box will end up overlapping on smaller pages...

Bought Salient.

Obviously, I need the newest version of Salient / Visual Composer (which comes with Salient) to get access to the features I am going for.

NOTE THIS:

"Salient v5.5 separated Visual Composer into a plugin and it is no longer automatically built in - this means when you activate the theme you'll have to still install the Visual Composer plugin via the admin panel. It is included still with the theme and no purchase is necessary, just head to the "install plugins" link in your admin panel located in the "appearance" section to install & activate. Cheers!"

Okay, that's all for tonight :)
