Welcome to Micek Design, the personal portfolio and blog of Chris Micek. I am young freelance web and graphic designer based in Chicago, but working worldwide.

What is RSS?

Colophon

Micek Design runs using the Wordpress Content Mangement System.

Logo and supporting elements are set using Aller. All other type is set in Georgia, with the body text using Verdana.

This site is compatible with all modern browsers. Note the use of 'modern.' Internet Explorer 6 is no longer a modern web browser, and is not being supported by my website design.

This site was designed and coded in November of 2008 using all Adobe Products. HTML/CSS and PHP were created using Dreamweaver 8.

Its nice to see former clients coming along.

12/16/08 Blog

My very first freelance project ever was to do a logo design for a medical devices company called “Caribou Technologies.” I was super nervous, created a TON of design options and overcharged them considering my level of experience (none).

Anyways, I just googled them and saw that they have a website up! I remember them talking about a website when I was first working on their logo and its great to see that they’ve got something up.

Its not the fanciest site, but hey its a web presence.

Caribou Technologies

I’m also glad that they rank higher than I do in the google SERPs. I would feel pretty bad having my blog rank higher than their company site.

Speaking of clients coming along, I’m currently working on the design and development for a new blog that I’m hoping will be successful. The woman that will be running it is a newbie to the blogging world but she seems really driven, and I can’t wait to see where she takes her blog.

Her blog/site should be up early next week and ready to go.
