Basic CSS3 to Customize your WordPress Theme With the increasing browser compatibility of CSS3, additional customization of websites is in the reach of most anyone (Even a Monkey can do it, according to Nikos Advertizopoulos …). Tonight we will start with a series of calls to become familiar with the possibilities arising from the use of CSS3 on WordPress to improve typography and font styles. You may follow the progress of the work at the Ycademy Demo Site which features the Semiomantics XO Theme. Looking forward to seeing you on YorgoLive tonight.

Semiomantics XO Transparent WordPress Drafts

February 8th , 2012 → 1:19 pm @

Transparent WordPress Custom Theme Playing with the XO Theme Version 3.3.x from Semiomantics and CSS3, I notice how easy it is for most anyone to customize the XO Theme by adding transparencies and other CSS3 elements. Here below you find some drafts. You may visit the test site from : http://globalthebrand.com. Transparent WordPress Gallery Scripts and Plug-ins On the test site we use the Semiomantics Widgets and Theme Handler plug-in as well as a modified Supersized plug-in; the latter needs some more work to make it more responsive. Also we use TubePress which behaves fine also on mobile. The Theme is Semiomantics XO with 3 custom child-themes; any theme can be associated with any page, post, category, tag or sidebar.       Related posts: Transparent WordPress Semiomantics XO Transparent WordPress Theme Design Semiomantics XO Blog The 1001 Faces of Semiomantics XO Semiomantics XO 2011 for WordPress

January 25th , 2012 → 11:29 am @

Responsive Themes for WordPress Responsive Websites become a must in 2012. This tutorial demonstrates how to make your WordPress Theme Responsive. What is Responsive Web Design? In very simple terms: Responsive Web Design aims to display content adapted to the visitors screen size. This means namely that the layout width must be fluid, i.e. expressed as a percentage of the width of the screen, typefaces expressed in em and images must be scalable. Practically speaking: a responsive designs can be viewed on a smart-phone or on a large PC screen, the display will always be the same and adapted to the size of the screen or browser window. n stead of using multiple style-sheets for different screen sizes, designers use Media Queries which allow to create multiple layouts using the same content. To achieve scalability, CSS media queries, such as min-width or orientation are used. Make your WordPress Theme responsive using a Child Theme A quick and easy way consists in creating a child theme; this allows you to upgrade your theme as the case may be without altering your customizations.

12 Principles of Animation with After Effects

December 15th , 2011 → 10:31 am @

Animation for Beginners with After Effects Since Disney’s hand-drawn animation, nothing has changed when it comes to the basic principles of animation. The success of Disney was not just in the design of Mickey and friends but in the way the characters were put into motion. At Saturday’s Ycademy Seminar we will explain the 12 Principles of Animation and see, how to apply them with After Effects. 1. Slow in – slow out Acceleration and deceleration is created with Easy Ease in and out functions is AE. The effect creates fluid motion. 2. Anticipation Anticipation designs the action leading to the actual movement, like the backwards swing before hitting a ball with a golf club. Anticipation prepares the viewer for the action which will occur. Surprise actions can be more effective without anticipation. 3. Squash and Stretch Squashing and stretching blows life into a volume. The rule is, not to change the volume while designing the effect: a vertical squash goes with a horizontal stretch. 4. Arc Objects tend to move along an arc, rather than along straight lines. In After Effects we animate along a path. 5. Straight Ahead Action vs. Pose to Pose Straight Ahead Action refers to [...]
