Will Work for Design
Calling all talented designers:
I'd like to trade services with a talented designer. I'm looking for a logo (in the form of an illustration/"character") and a one-page, simple homepage for a personal website. I obviously would provide web programming in this trade.
If you enjoy illustration / design and are interested in learning a bit more about what I'm looking for, please drop me a line at david@davidwalsh.name. I'd appreciate a portfolio link/document in your email.
If you're seeing this, you likely know my skill set but I can also provide a portfolio and links to sites/functionality I've completed.
I hope to hear from you!
David

![MooTools-Like Element Creation in jQuery]()
I really dislike jQuery's element creation syntax. It's basically the same as typing out HTML but within a JavaScript string...ugly! Luckily Basil Goldman has created a jQuery plugin that allows you to create elements using MooTools-like syntax.
