Out With The Old And In With The New

I have been working for awhile now on a redesign and I am happy to say it is now live. It is a complete redesign from the ground up and based upon the Twenty Ten WordPress theme.

Fonts

For the first time I am using TypeKit to make use of custom fonts and so far i love it. There are hundreds of fonts to choose from and this service makes it extremely simple to add them any website. Not only is it simple to use, it supports most of the web browsers in use.

I am also taking advantage of browsers that support the text-shadow attribute, which is currently Firefox 3.5+, Safari 1.1+ and Opera 9.5+. This effect really makes the text just pop.

Photos

I am using Gallery 3 to manage the photos section. There are some WordPress gallery plugins, but none of them really did everything I needed.

If you are using Firefox, Safari/Chrome, Opera or Internet Explorer 9, then the background behind all of the photos will have rounded corners. I feel this gives the images the look of a slide.

Screenshots

Please contact me know what you think or if you find any bugs. Thanks.
