Alex from The Checkered Blog contacted us for a custom design solution for his Typepad powered blog. He already had his header designed, but the framework for his existing blog desperately needed some help in the layout and CSS area. I finished up his blog design this month using Typepad’s Custom CSS solution. . .

Needing a 3 column layout for his blog, Alex wanted to keep it simple and clean – - but stay with their existing color scheme of green, white and grey. I applied some custom styling using the Custom CSS feature to the sidebars, body, comments, post footer and overall layout of his blog.

    The Checkered Blog just won the Silver place against Sony and Wells Fargo for innovative communication ideas, and E. Webscapes deserves credit!
