Apostolicbook Entry 3

About four months ago I posted Apostolicbook Entry 2 and was hoping that by now we would have our first Alpha testing going. Has that happened? No. Why hasn’t it happened? Because we could never decide on a layout we wanted and none of us could design a logo worth keeping. Also, during this time we lost one of our team members, Jared Hilton. Has that affected us any? Yes and no. No by the fact that we all really weren’t motivated and yes because he did have a good idea or two.

A week or two ago I talked some with Aaron Ogle and we decided to try our hand at things again. After a couple tries of trying to create a logo, I gave up and told him that we needed to find an Apostolic graphic artist. He agreed and I started looking, and it was God that I found one (and a very good one at that). Apostolicbook now has it’s very own graphic designer. What does this mean for us and for everyone else? The world!! Or at least it seems like that.

Last night we had a so called “business meeting” that lasted from around 8 till 11 (my time). You’re thinking “Wow that’s a long time!” and you are correct, but we needed that. I think we all went away from it feeling very accomplished. We got several things much needed out of the way. Of those things, the main one I’m happy about is our logo! It’s very sweet looking and most defintally will be recoginzable any where. I won’t give any details of what it looks like (and won’t post pictures of it), as it’s not time for that. :) Cause like the Bible says, there’s a time and place for everything!

We did a lot of other things about Apostolicbook last night, and they are all very important too. The last thing I’m going to say is this… Be sure to start checking our Twitter, Status blog, and our homepage for updates! Cause who knows, sometime soon we might reveal a little here and there!

This is all for now! Hopefully you can tell I’m ready to start doing stuff on Apostolicbook!!! :) God Bless,

ApostolicBook Entry 1

It’s been a pretty long time since I’ve wrote anything on here, but I thought that since it was a snow day today I would make a post about ApostolicBook. Many of you who are readers of my blog probably know about ApostolicBook and how me and Aaron Ogle and creating it up from nothing. This has been a pretty tough task to do since we’re both not altogether motivated people. But last night we talked on Google Wave (I have 24 invites), and the conversation went along very fast because of how Google Wave is set up. We covered a huge scope of things that we have need to talk about, and now that the conversation is stored we don’t have to remember what we talked about cause all we have to do is go back and look at it, which is completely awesome.

The small version of our color scheme.

One thing that we tried to talk about was the primary colors for our first draft of the layout, but the colors we picked somewhat match but not completely for some reason. All the other colors fit, except for the blue unless it does and I’m not smart enough to realize it.

I’ve started to work on the layout and the design, layout being the coding and design being the thing you do I’m doing in Photoshop. I’m having some trouble getting it to look the way I want to look, but its’ probably some simple thing I’m leaving out or forgot to put in. Hopefully I’ll get it fixed sometime soon or else I’ll be pretty disappointed in myself.

I would give you all a link to view what I’ve done so far, but I don’t want to share it with you since there’s nothing to really see since it’s not looking the way I want it to. I will hopefully post updates to here about it, but if I don’t then that probably means I haven’t gotten very far haha

God Bless
