Show and Tell: Random Nicole Blog Redesign
Nicole Stevenson of Random Nicole recently asked if we could rework her blog to be a little more visually appealing, and a little more integrated into her website. Her starting point was like many small biz websites – a great website that links to an external blog hosted elsewhere (in Random Nicole’s case, Typepad). The…
