I have been getting some great messages about my published article on Drupal.org explaining in a very basic step by step way, how to install and administer multiple Drupal sites on your local Mac computer. I'd like to share one comment with you that truly made my day.
You are AMAZING....thank you for your incredible work AND your response!! In the meantime, I "gave up", reinstalled Drupal....and I'm up and running....thanks to all of YOUR oh-so-clear instructions. I just followed your guide again and IT'S ALL GOOD!! You have talent and kindness beyond measure.
I can't thank you enough...truly...you are the best and I am so grateful you shared your "stuff"!!

I've noticed in business that I tend to attract people that are similar to me. I love to work and those that aren't serious are identified rather quickly. I'm always respectful and courteous but stingy with my time with distractions that disrupt deadlines. But most of all, I enjoy feeling productive everyday and seem to be happiest when surrounded by like minded folk.
At what point does an artist become a sell out? And if that artist decides to create for financial gain, why does that degrade the perception of that artist? I say this broadly because it applies to many art forms but let me be more specific to me. Someone recently asked me to design a site with pretty strict guidelines and little to no room for outside creativity. This is never a problem as it is part of the job but if I'm not going to include a project in my portfolio because it could potentially do more harm than good to my overall body of work am I any less of an artist to take on the assignment? I love the process of creating so I guess there simply are no boundaries for me.
Color blends that influence people one way or the other are fascinating! Whether you see a bright red mark on the belly of a Black Widow or a bright red light at an intersection, they both mean STOP! Different color meanings have been embedded in our brains since childhood. They override language barriers and social backgrounds. How can colors that the world accepts to mean specific things be used to the advantage of a designer or a business owner? How can using color patterns that we are conditioned to accept influence purchasing habits?
I was in the store earlier looking to try something new. Something that's summer! I'm thinking a nice vodka / lemonade mix with a fresh squeezed lime would be perfect. And then it hit me. I don't know which brand I want.
So now I'm looking and looking trying to decipher whether I'm in a triple or a quadruple distilled mood. After becoming slightly frustrated, I ended up narrowing down my selection by choosing the bottle that looked the best. Packaging in many cases can be more important than the actual product.
