From the month of 98 my first Personal Pig page was born. To 2008 today. announced that I have been in the design industry for a whole decade.
Ten years, a lot of changes, from tinkering with the Personal pig page to the present to make a living, from a hair-head boy successfully upgraded to the level of the milk Dad. From a friend to a career change, to 10 years later I also soak in the industry in the difficult to churn. I have to sigh vicissitudes ^_^
The 10 should be a summary for yourself and a record of past experiences so that you can go further in the next 10 years. Go better.
The first time the Internet, is in the lake and the North courtyard of the good News Café, then transferred to the famous corruption of the national news, the national news at that time exclusively Compaq brand machine. Internet Café is a 128K 169-line, the surrounding people mostly playing in mud, chat room, there is no QQ forum. Boss Bright brother with a round glasses, in the Internet café that Linux Proxy server to knock commands. The first thing to hear about the Internet is Linux this dongdong, the function is very strong, the interface is very dark very mysterious.
There have been a lot of good personal websites, because the internet fee is too expensive, the wallet is not strong, I usually do a good job in the dormitory, with 3.5-inch disk Copy to get the Internet café to upload. The first is the hot dog, then found FrontPage, suddenly feel hot dogs very bad amateur.
1998, I have no computer, with super memory and silver tongue, incredibly dare in computer training School Professor Photoshop/coreldraw Curriculum, courage is really big a bit ... I don't think I can do that now. Fraught, sin, sin ...
Because it's an art class, plus a little computer foundation from DOS 6, and a good FrontPage from Microsoft, I'm on my way. In fact, I did not understand how the Web design is going on.
It was not until 1999 that Hunan's Tian Chen Company recruit web designers. I just became a half-baked regular army from the river. Thank Zheng (now 5460 director). Offered me a part-time job. In the days, with a good network environment, I created a seven-color bird. In the same year, participate in the 163.net mascot design, Took a 32MB of MP3. It's a bit big. It's almost like a white-sand cigarette case. A bit exaggerated.
2000, I bought my first computer. Ended the history of rubbing classmates computer. Run a 169 monthly subscription. A more frantic online operation. Of course, working outside the company is already part of life. In the same year, participating in a company logo design, the company rewards a 25-inch TV set. My classmates and I worked hard for half a day, Before moving back to the dormitory. BTW: This TV set allows me to be the same room with the students to become the field of satellite TV small well-known personal webmaster: Money can buy some things, but may not purchase meaning. I think this TV set is very meaningful.
Since then, the identity of web designers wandering around, Beijing, Shanghai, Changsha, have been to many companies. Also did some of the work that was quite smug at the time. Not many of them have left the residue. The internet is like this, for designers, very cruel.
Since then, the school has been a professional teacher for two years, spent some time in the photographic company, advertising companies have been around for a while, and their identities have been changed from designer to director. So I began to feel no meaning, after 2006 51, ready to toss their own. The name is Soho. Think it's nice and enjoyable to open a studio. , you want to sleep, you can work all night, do not have to worry about the next day to clock in. It turns out that there is nothing wrong with it. When the teacher, when the staff are actually very good, impulse is the devil, do not whim of their own business.
2006, my daughter was born, I was also a glorious upgrade. Intensive design work is starting from 2006. Because of professional strength and friend introduction, the studio has accumulated some customers, most of the local industry leading enterprises. Good works have been done, copied, The work of a disgraced person is often there. It's all very normal. After all, most people just know you're shiny. And will not know how much toil and sweat behind it and the painful process of being raped by clients.
At the moment my team has grown to 6 people and the company is registered, but it is mainly used to deal with business relationships. Luckily, some of our professional opinions have already begun to affect our customers. This is a great progress.
2007, we participated in the whole of Hunan Radio and television under the new version of the Golden Eagle Network, for us, the meaning of Web design has not only existed in the visual performance.
Unfortunately, by the beginning of 08, I was the only one left in the studio. Once again proves that one cannot save the world. Sad to sad, the studio will continue to adhere to.
Another thing worth saying in 2007 is the creation of the money Baby website, she was my first complete PHP project. Get some friends of the praise, of course, the bug is also indispensable. Bbcash is a project from product creativity, business process, front-end design, coding implementation, server deployment process, There is a lot of exercise and inspiration. Before this, never had the opportunity to do so in-depth for a product design, feel really helpful to me, I think, a good designer should master the equivalent of Web front-end technology, I understand the front-end technology contains (Xhtml/css/javascript /flash action, etc.). Don't ask me what the money baby is going to do next. Let her exist and stick to it is the most meaningful thing, let her make money, for the time being. A lot of things are going to happen.
As a designer, can the real sense of control of the source layer of the Web page, to get the user interaction to make, the user experience natural flow is more fluent. Web design has not been limited to the design of Photoshop and cut the map, the mind inside the idea of the page, in what way the birth, What kind of appearance in front of the viewer, is the designer's most concerned about things.
In the division of the company, a designer can master the whole process of technology, the site's overall structure, process design, user perception is very meaningful. Of course, there may be a suspicion of snake balm. But in the underdeveloped regions, this is necessary.
10 years, learned a lot, but also gave up a lot, seven-color bird in the development of 100,000 members, it has stalled, and the pressure of energy and life has not allowed me to do more. Ten years of focus on the design field so that I also have a good accumulation, delving into UNIX technology, scripting and so on, although I have a lot of distraction, But it also gave me a lot. The choice is a very difficult thing, the worst is, you do not choose.
The next 10 years, I think I need more than professional experience and try, after 10 years, what it looks like, who knows:
Opportunity and adventure have always been around. To live a healthy life every day, do a good job every choice may be the eternal theme. With more than three words is: good work is to do meaningful things, do meaningful things is good to live.
