Not sure what accessibility changes will have the most benefit to your existing software? Are you in the build process and need to make sure accessibility has been appropriately considered? Use this checklist as a starting point.
Welcome to Found Friday, volume 82. This week we have: an in-depth tutorial on creating a filterable jQuery portfolio in WordPress (much like what we use in our portfolio); a cool new font that creates charts by using ligatures; a small library for manipulating your favicon, including adding alerts to it; a fun “hankie notebook”; and a great read on the creation process for the new Basecamp default avatars. Read on!
Create a Filterable Portfolio with WordPress & jQuery
This tutorial from NetTuts is not for the faint of heart, but it’s worthwhile. Check it out if you’re looking for a neat solution to your WordPress-powered portfolio.
Chartwell
A font that creates charts?!? What’s next, a photo of Darth Vader filling up a Brita jug from the ocean?
Tinycon
This is neat. Tinycon allows you to add alert bubbles to your favicon, or to change the image completely. Neat.
Hankie Notebook
It’s a notebook that looks like a hanky – so the next time you need to take notes and look suave, you have an answer.
Reinventing our Default Profile Pictures
This is a great look into the process that went on behind the scenes during the creation of BaseCamp’s default profile photos. Quick and interesting.
See you next week!
