stories through the memories

I think the main part of us just adores the system of memories in ts2. Even having the same group of situations we always watch with interest what new memory our sim gets.

And actually Maxis used this amazing system to show us the past of their characters, to show us the stories of premades (and that's why we love so much play with their sims, we know not only their personality and interests, but also the past, which helps the player to fully analyze the life of any premade). Of course, very often we see 'a standard template' of memories that have every Maxis sim, it depends on their age, status, career achievements, number of children, etc. Usually premades have mamories about learning toddler skills, about grades in school, birthsdays, being the best friend with future wife/husband, a first kiss, a new job (a raise at work), woohoo, baby (babies), a death of parents... We all know this memories so well.

But in some cases, The Sims 2 creators gave their sims unique memories and/or told a whole neighborhood story using this system. And I would like to discuss these kinds of unusual situations. Perhaps someone didn't attach much importance to this...

Why Monty and Capp hate each other?

That's a classical example how we can told even a tragedy through the memories in ts2. When Patrizio and Consort were teens they had a really strong friendship, but Contessa (Patrizio's girlfriend) fell in love with his best friend and they broke up. Iinteresting detail: Patrizio don't have a memory about Contessa's cheating, so she just have left him. But, despite this, a bitter enmity started... And now all (almost all) Monty can't stand not only Consort and deceased Contessa but their children and grandchildren. And maybe you notice that for Monty Culinary is a family carreer, however, initially Patrizio worked with Consort, but their conflict seems to have led to Monty being fired. And now it's 'a clan' of chefs.

What kind of person is/was Bella Goth?

We all know who Bella Goth is. We even have her ‘clone’ in Strangetown. And this ‘clone’ has her biography and personality, but not memories. Even so, we can still learn about the Lady in Red's past...through the past of other sims.

Mortimer’s memories told us he and Bella have been the besties since childhood. As the teenagers, they started dating and even snuck out together. So romantic, I think.

‘Snuck out’ memory is rarely for premades (I remember only four sims). In addition to Mortimer (of the nonteen sims), Kimberly Cordial also has it. However, it’s because of the fact the Cordial twins are similar to the Pleasant twins. Thus this memory is ‘a copy’ of Lilith's memory (she snuck out with Dirk).

Based on Cassandra's memories, Bella was a careful mom who taught her daughter all the toddler skills. Of course, don’t forget about Bella's coolest act – she rejected Don. All these little details help us learn about really famous but still an unplayable sim.

Love is in the air? Maybe… But isn't in the memories.

I have already mentioned that every premade has 'a standard template' of memories. And often a married premade/premade in relationships remembers how he/she/they fall in love with their partner, often but not always. Sometimes sims don’t have this kind of deep feelings.

Stella Roth doesn’t love her husband.

Regan and Cornwall Capp have a lot common, including a mutual lack of romantic feelings for each other.

Dina Caliente obsoletely doesn’t need this nonsense Love memory to put a ring on a hand of a rich Mortimer. And Mortimer still remembers only one love.

A teenage drama

Lilith and Dirk are the only premade teen couple who has Made out memory (with each other). This’s the most ‘serious’ romantic act for teens in ts2, their last step (even adult/elder premades didn’t do it while they were teens). I think it shows Dirk and Lilith are truly close and have a really hot relationship.

Jacob Martin (Riverblossom Hills) is the only one teen who has an ex (Jules O'Mackey). And by the time you first play with his household, Jacob is in a relationship with another girl Sandra Roth. It’s unusual for teenagers who sometimes have several crushes at the same time, but not a breakup.

As teens, Daniel and Mary-Sue Pleasant had a little complicated relationship (that not a surprise at all). Mary-Sue rejected a very first kiss by Daniel. This’s very ironic, in the past, Daniel has persistently sought love from Mary-Sue. But now it's he who can finally destroy their marriage.

In Desiderata Valley the families Aspir and Bell are truly close friends. Even their kids already get along well with each other. Curiously, Victor and Hannah shared their first kiss and, in their turn, Elizabeth and Issac shared their first kiss. While now we have two another marriage couples: Victor & Elizabeth, Hannah & Issac. Maybe it’s a sign from Maxis and their children would be a good match or it’s about parents who may rethink their marriage lives.

What about all this toddler skills?

In my opinion the memories about teaching the toddler skills sometimes can explain relationship between children and their parents. For example, thought these memories we found out the twins Lola and Chloe were raised by their stepmom Glabe Curious (while one of their biological father divorced her and left his alien babies). We remember Bella tough Cassandra all toddler skills (while more often both parents do it together). And there’re more examples of such good parents, like, PT9 did the same for Johnny or Hero Monty and her daughter Beatrice, etc. But sometimes children don't get enough attention from their parents. Lilith Pleasant hasn’t learned the toddler skills, while her twin sister owns all three. We can see neglect from parents to one of the sisters. And that explains the bad relationship between them. Many of the kids in the Capp family also didn’t learn the toddler skills (like Regan). Or Albany and Goneril's kids usually only learn two toddler skills. Most likely this’s because the Capp families always have many children and the parents don’t have time for each of them. Or Maxis were too lazy to add all three memories.

Another interesting memories

Legendary Olive Specter has her famous memory about Woohoo with Grim Reaper. And actually you won’t find another premade with so many memories of the weddings, engagements and deaths of grooms/husbands, I also don't remember another sim whose kid was taken away by a social worker.

Betty Goldstein is the only one sim who has a memory about WooHoo with Mystery Sim. Now we know Mystery Sim is not a virgin.

First PT9’s memory is his first met with Jenny. He doesn’t have any memory from his home planet. My headcanon: PT9 erased his own memory (using alien technology) to forget his ‘Pollinator career’.

All memories of premades from Riverblossom Hills are green (even memories about parents’ death). Obviously, this’s the developers’ mistake. However, I prefer to think Riverblossom Hills is some kind of creepy utopia. Where all sims positively perceive each event.

I hope this post inspires you to play with your favorite premades again. Perhaps you also analyzed their memories and can complement/fix my thoughts.

How to create a PowerPoint for school while struggling with executive dysfunction

Note: this is my method it might not work for everyone

Step one: search the topic in google/whatever search engine you use. Scroll thru the websites that pop up and click on the ones that look promising/are talking about your topic. Don’t fall into the “this looks like it could be helpful but I'm not entirely sure so I won't click” trap. Just click everyone that looks somewhat promising and isn’t sus. It's not yet your job to see which ones you’ll actually be able to use. Right now your just gathering websites that COULD be a source. Then bookmark all of this in a folder for your project in your bookmarks bar. Now step away and take a break/ do whatever you want to do.

Step two: Now you're going to sort. Well, start sorting. Do a quick scan thru the website and see if it actually is usable. For example, maybe you searched for “1950s farming techniques” and one of the websites you clicked on is talking only about the pros of their farming techniques but you're talking about the cons? Then un-bookmark that website and throw it away.

Note: you may feel bad about having to get rid of so many sources that you had previously collected. Don’t. those were just sites that you that might help. Some you were correct on and will help, some you were wrong on. Nothing wrong with that.

Step three: go over to PowerPoint and look thru their themes. Bookmark the once that you think looks cool/relate to what you're talking about.

Step four: go thru the themes you bookmarked and narrow them down to two or three.

Step five: choose between the themes and select the one you will use for your PowerPoint and unpin the other one/s/.

Step six: click that theme then click create PowerPoint. After that look at the requirements for the project. Does it have a minimum number of slides? That put that many slides in your PowerPoint.

Note: some themes will come with some premade template slides showing what you can do. Don’t delete them. Just simply move them to the bottom of the PowerPoint. They might be helpful later on.

Note 2: don’t forget to put in a sources/works cited slide at the end. don’t worry you aren’t filling it in yet.

Step seven: label each slide. That’s it. This lets you map out what you are going to talk about and in what order.

Step eight: scan thru the websites. When you see the website talking about something you have a slide for, then place a link to the website on that slide. if the website doesn't talk about anything you have a slide for then get rid of it.

Step nine: choose a slide to start with. Click the links that slide has and copy and paste the relevant raw info onto that slide. It will be rewritten later.

Note: it might be helpful to do something like writing “raw info” or changing the font color so you’ll remember that it needs to be rewritten.

Note 2: don’t forget to put a link to the website on your sources tab while doing this.

Step ten: look at the raw info and turn it into bullet points. Bullet point the main info and any important facts.

Note: while doing this keep an eye out to see if you have any repeating info. Multiple sites may say the same fact. If this is the case then delete the extra info. Step eleven: did your theme come with premade template slides? If it didn’t then you can skip this step, but if it did then look at them and see if you can use any of them. If you can use any of them then do so. It will make your presentation look neater, prettier, and more professional. Delete the slides you can’t use.

Step twelve: go back onto the web and see if you can find any photos related to your topic. If you can then place them in the slide they will fit the best with.

Step thirteen: this is when you should check the requirements. Some teachers prefer for your slides to just have bullet points/ have so many or less words. Some don’t care. If your teacher doesn’t care and you want your slides to be in sentences/ paragraphs then this is when you convert those bullet points into sentences like the english converted everyplace they touched into catholic/christian/protestant/whatever religion they were at the time of contact. With varying degrees of success. But don’t worry about that. Don’t worry if some of your sentences are a bit choppy right now, there will be a time for you to fix them up later. If your teacher wants your presentation as bullet points, then leave them alone on the PowerPoint and use them to write the first draft of your script.

Step fourteen: this is when you edit everything you’ve written that needs fixing and make it flow/sound better.

Step fifteen: add in all of the bells and whistles.

Note: if your using transitions then make sure you use ones that work well together. For example wipe, split, morph, and fade work pretty well together in my personal opinion.

Step sixteen: check to make sure that you have everything that's required in your PowerPoint. If you don’t then make sure to add it in.

Step seventeen: marvel at how easy it was to do this school project.

Note: this was written assuming you have at least 16 days to do the project and can do one step a day. If you have more than 16 days, then you can break the bigger steps up (like steps 2,9,10, and 13) and spread them across two or more days. If you have less time then do some of the smaller steps (like steps 3,4,5,6,7,12,14,15, and 16) in the same day.

Note 2: What I categorized as big steps and small steps is based on my experiences and were included as examples so people could get an idea of what I was talking about. If they are not big steps/small steps for you then don’t treat them as such.

Note 3: Step 2 can actually be a big step, small, step, or a medium-sized step. How long it takes step two to be completed depends on how many websites you gathered in step one. I just like gathering a lot of websites so I know that even if a lot ends up thrown away, there is guaranteed to be a few that will work.

You can join as a guest, or be a part of the event with your own room as an actor, be a dj and play music for the guests, or help out in one of the party rooms. Please reblog using the info under read more rather than the person you’re reblogging from, different positions have additional relevant questions! Have a question? Ask me here!

The tag for this event is #InkysHauntedCastle

Copy and paste the below sign up form into your reblog with your answers filled out. Please leave the asterisks on the template, then you can just copy and paste your answers from here into the Discord intro channel with proper formatting! If you are bringing multiple muses please fill out the form only once, then reblog your post on those muse’s blogs (if they have one). Once you’ve signed up you can join the server here.

If you’re not sure how to fill out the form please take a look at this sample post!

Basic Sign Up Form

**Muse Name** (pronouns):

**Muse Species/Character Base**:

**Fandom of Origin**:

**Skills**:

**Short Bio**:

(No more than a paragraph)

(Please also include an image of your muse)

If you are a guest the above information is all you’ll need, now you’ve just got to join the Discord server here: https://discord.gg/rr5HGNZ! If you signed up for additional roles please copy the appropriate sections below into your reblog as well. Think of it as an audition!

If you are bringing multiple muses please choose ONE to serve as your main muse to work in the haunted house (the others can be guests, especially if you’d like an excuse to try out a new muse.) Your main muse should be listed first on your entry form.

Haunted House Actor

What section do you want to work in: Options: Haunted House / Carnival / Hades / Dark Maze / Graveyard / Anywhere short on people / New Suggestion! (Please tell me what it is) What costume will your muse be wearing: Please include a narrator’s flavor text that would appear when a guest enters the room (This description should give the mun an idea of what the room looks like as well as what their muse can interact with and do): Please give me a short writing sample of what your muse might say when a guest enters your section of the Haunted Castle (A scripted scene between 2 or 3 muses is allowed. This is different than the above as multiple characters may be in the same room, with the narrator giving the flavor text you wrote above): And now two things your muse might say/do to keep the action in your room going: Would you want to be the entrance host if one is needed? Experienced RPers only please: (Yes/No)

What is an entrance host? You would be at the very front of the haunted castle’s haunted rooms.

It’s your responsibility to make sure they understand how to use commands to get from room to room and answer any questions they have in character about the haunted house section of the castle. The Haunted House cannot operate without a host. Most of the time that will be me! With extra hosts, the house can run even in my absence when IRL things need me.

If you signed up to play your own playlist but are asked to use an existing playlist (such as the ambient track for muses in the haunted house) would you be okay with this: (Yes/No, I only want to play my playlist)

Party Planner

What will your muse be doing to help with the party rooms: Options: Flavortext catalyst for interesting situations / serving food / bartender something else?

Moderator

Why do you want to be a moderator:

Do you have any prior experience helping with an event:

Here’s a few questions that will give me an idea how you’d handle an uncomfortable situation. Assume that when these scenarios happen you are the only mod online.

A guest is being passive aggressive to other mun. No one has complained yet. What would you do:

Someone is having their muse drink to the point of vomiting, and is amusing themselves by throwing up on the other muses. People seem uncomfortable in character and out of character but haven’t complained yet. What would you do:

A muse is being roleplayed to do things such as use a knife to hack at their demon tail and horns while the muse cries. If no one is interacting with them they’ll start hurting themselves again saying, “If I didn’t look so ugly I would have friends like everyone else.” until another muse comes over to give them attention. Someone has messaged the DMs saying this makes them feel uncomfortable. What would you do: A user messages you saying that someone joined they don’t like and to please kick them out of the event. What would you do:

An argument breaks out in the mun area of the chat, and what started as two people arguing now has six people arguing. As it continues, more people join in the argument to give their opinion and join in- the situation is quickly getting out of control. What would you do: A mun tells you they feel left out and don’t know how to get started in the game. They’re kind of shy. What would you do:

Five FREE or CHEAP Tools to Grow Your Business for Makers and Creative Entrepreneurs

Disclosure: Some of the links included below are affiliate links. This means at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through the link and make a purchase.

We hear it all the time. “It’s too expensive to start a business!” Well I am here to tell you that YES it can be expensive but it doesn’t have to be. In my group of maker friends I am the person they come to when looking for a solution to a problem. I am always researching apps, listening to podcasts, reading books and discovering new tools that can help me grow my business.

So here it is the top 5 tools I use to bootstrap my business.

Canva: This app will change your life if you struggle with making content. Canva works on a freemium model, the most important parts are free but if you want to do specific things then you can upgrade your account. Canva is a graphic design website and app that allows you to use premade templates or build your own for all different applications. I use it for making my Youtube thumbnails, instagram stories, Facebook posts, blog post banners, posters, menus, etc. If you don’t see the type of template you are looking for just google canva + template type and you will likely find it.

Freshbooks: I do social media posting for clients and having a way to easily invoice them is a lifesaver. Clients can even pay by credit card right on the invoice! On their lowest plan you get upto 5 clients at any one time, so if you are no longer working with someone you can delete the client but all the information stays in your records. On top of the invoicing you can also build and send estimates, track expenses, time track and bill to the client, and generate reports for an accountant. I just uploaded all of my expenses for the last six months and it took me less that an hour! There is also an app so almost everything can be done on the go. If you want to try Freshbooks feel free to use my referral link here, there usually a 30 day free trial happening at any given time. Freshbooks plans start at $15 USD/month

Podcasts and Youtube: I have learned pretty much everything I know on social media from Podcasts, and Youtube. The content is free and you can listen to a podcast while driving or doing something else. I subscribe to a wide variety of accounts and feeds that cover a huge selection of topics and success levels. My top Podcasts and Channels will be coming soon in a post.

Ebates: Ok so I understand that this one doesn’t make much sense but stick with me. I buy things on Amazon and VistaPrint regularly and that adds up. Ebates gives me cashback and often tells me when there is an awesome discount code for VistaPrint. If I have to buy the things anyway I might as well save some money, right? Don’t have Ebates? If you sign up with my affiliate link here you get a bonus $10 until Sept 30, 2018.

Tag-O-Matic: Tag-O-Matic is a free app that allows you to type in a keyword/hashtag and find other related or often used together tags. You then check off the ones you want (up to 30) and the app allows you to copy the list into Instagram to paste on your latest post. It has seriously helped me to be discovered in the hashtags, and grow my following. The app also takes a lot of the guesswork out of what hashtags to use, which comes in handy when your brain is not cooperating. All you need is to know the top 4 or 5 tags you want to use and Tag-O-Matic can usually fill in the blanks. Download on Google Play Download on App Store

What I want to know is; do you have any apps or tools I should be using? How have they helped you?

5 Ways To Build Your Website

Websites used to target a single type of user, typically browsing the Internet using a standard web browser on a desktop or laptop computer. That era ended nearly a decade ago, driven in large part by massive adoption of the smartphone. The rise of tablets further increased the number of ways to build a website for mass consumption, and the imminent arrival of wearable technology in the consumer marketplace looks to throw yet another option into the mix for consumption of online content.

The question, then, is how can a site administrator effectively build a website that accommodates one, or all, of these platforms? The answer is to select from five popular ways to build your website, choosing themes that specifically target one device or adapt the code to fit all screens at all times. The top five ways to make this happen each have their own pros and cons.

1. Choose a Responsive Template that is “Screen-Aware”

Perhaps the most popular option chosen by today’s website administrators when deploying a new site is to opt for a responsive template that can detect screen size and adapt its design elements accordingly. WordPress has been a hotbed of activity in this area for several years, driven in large part by its overwhelming popularity and the massive size of its web developer community. WordPress currently comes with no less than three default themes that all leverage the power of responsive XHTML and HTML5 design. These themes detect a screen resolution and adapt design elements, like the navigation and sidebar, accordingly.

On a desktop screen, the template appears in its “natural” state, with multiple sidebars next to each other and a large header or navigation area. As the site shrinks down for a tablet screen, the sidebars may reduce in size or the navigation may get smaller. The header image may be eliminated. For smartphones, the sidebars stack on top of each other, the header is dramatically reduced in size, and the navigation typically becomes a menu instead of an on-screen series of links. This method is popular because it accommodates all devices and comes standard with WordPress. Many third-party templates have understandably copied this technique.

2. Build a Responsive Site Using Basic Responsive Templates

A fully developed template may not be the best choice for all website administrators. Some more seasoned website owners may want to more fully customize their responsive site and, for those administrators, a basic template is the choice worth making. A basic responsive template only comes with the code that reduces the site’s size to accommodate mobile devices. It does not feature colors, specific design choices, or specific layouts. All of that work is done by the website’s owner as they leverage their design and programming expertise.

These basic templates are a great way to not only design an entirely new look for a website, but also to adapt an existing design to the demands of mobile devices. Many website owners find themselves having to convert an old design to new standards so that mobile users can fully enjoy their content. A basic template allows for the copy-paste of major design elements into a new, responsive framework that will more durably stand the test of time as even more forms of mobile communication are introduced in the future.

3. Start with a Blank Slate and Code the Old Fashioned Way

Wireframe templates that leverage responsive designs have become common for intermediate-level designers, but many of the more seasoned professionals prefer to do things the old fashioned way and code their website by hand. For a responsive site, this means manually coding the website’s HTML5 code, its CSS stylesheet, and the JavaScript often required to adapt the design to the whims of a mobile browser used by smartphone and tablet operating systems. Though this might seem like a lot of work for something as simple as a web design, the manual approach to site design has its advantages.

First and foremost, manual programming allows website administrators to create their own framework for website elements, their shapes, their sizes, and other features. Designers who want to “break the mold” with their new site design will have to adopt this approach in order to get beyond the restrictions of premade site themes or basic responsive templates that allow only for filling in the blanks. Despite its rather intense amount of required work, this method is the one most likely to make a site appear truly unique and dynamic when users visit it for the first time after the new design as been completed.

4. Try a Website Builder or Automated Installer Tool

Another option that is increasing in popularity, especially among website administrators who are new to design itself, is that of a website builder or an automated installer. Perhaps the most popular automated installer tool is Fantastico, which is included in most cPanel installations at today’s biggest web hosts. Fantastico allows new site owners to enter just a few basic pieces of information, including their desired username, password, and site theme, and then it takes care of installation behind the scenes.

The whole process is completely automated, taking somewhere between 10 seconds and two minutes. The result is a fully installed copy of WordPress, a configured template that meets the user’s needs, and an administrator login that they’ll easily remember. The installer also does all of the database configuration needed to get the site off the ground.

Site builder tools are also popular additions to cPanel installations at major web hosts. While many do not offer integration with WordPress and other major content management systems, they do allow users to select a site template and use “what you see is what you get” editing. As a result, creating a new site design is as easy as dragging, dropping, typing, and publishing. In many cases, these websites can even be built in a way that lets them adapt to the smaller screen sizes of today’s most popular mobile devices.

5. Desktop Website Design Software

Microsoft once built the world’s popular website design software in its Microsoft FrontPage application, but those days are long over. Today, the desktop design space is dominated by major, standards-compliant software choices like Adobe Dreamweaver. Applications like Dreamweaver function in a similar way to site builder tools offered within web host control panels. They’re based on the desktop, however, and require routine licensing and updating.

The benefit of these programs is that they integrated with images already saved to a user’s computer, they allow for a local copy of the design to be saved as a backup, and they connect directly to a user’s website server so that they can directly upload website files and images as needed. The added stability and customized permitted by these tools makes them a compelling way for novice site owners to create a design that reflects their own sensibilities.

Five Great Ways to Build Your Website

Building a website has never been easier. Whether it’s the advanced nature of building a site from the ground up, coding it manually with several different programming languages, or simply using a desktop site builder tool, users have many options to choose from as they determine their site’s appearance. Better yet, major content management tools like WordPress often include their own themes and customization options, making it even easier to blend a compelling site design with unique, authoritative content.

The best combination of these available tools and site design methods will result in a website that adheres to web standards, dynamically presents content to end users, and caters to their desire for an intuitive online experience.

Email Invitation Templates: How to Create and Use Them

So, you’ve got an event and you want to send out email invitations, but you don’t know where to start or what to say.

No worries. I’ve got plenty of ideas to help you out.

In this article, I’m going to share some of my favorite email invitation templates, explain why I like them, and give you some helpful advice as to what to include in them.

From a New Year’s bash to a Friends-mas celebration (and even wedding invitations), we’re going to explore a full year of email invitation templates together!

And by the time we’re finished, you’ll be able to confidently create, and edit, your own email invitation templates.

But before we get to all of that, let’s start with the basics:

What should an email invitation include?

Every invitation, no matter the event, has to include certain information — who, what, where, when, how:

Who is hosting the eventWhat the event isWhere the event is atWhen the event is happeningHow the invitee is to respond

In addition to those basics, a good invitation also describes the event in a manner that entices its invitees to become attendees — through imagery and text; what we refer to as “content.”

One of the main advantages of sending out party invitations via email is that your invitees can respond immediately, directly from the email invitation, via a link that you insert into your email invitation template.

If you’re thinking about sending out an announcement instead of an invitation, take a look at our 1-2-3 Guide to Announcement Emails.

What are event invitation templates?

Event invitation templates are basically just another kind of email template. Most often, email providers like Constant Contact have a whole slew of invitation email templates to choose from. While I’ll be sharing some of those templates in this article, what I’m sharing is just the tip of the iceberg, so-to-speak.

To find premade event templates in your Constant Contact account, just type in “event” in the template search bar.

Besides having pre-made event templates to choose from, you can also create an invitation from a regular email template, or build your own from scratch, or have one made for you. Don’t worry, I promise that I’ll let you how, before we’re done.

Don’t have a Constant Contact account? Give our email templates a try with a free 60-day trial.

Now that we’ve got some basic information out of the way, let’s take a look at some great invitation email templates.

Examples of invitation email templates January – Happy New Year!

New Year’s Eve is when we say goodbye to our past and look towards our future. We think about making resolutions (which we rarely keep), but most importantly we gather with friends and family whom we wish to spend the coming year with.

The passing of one year to the next can be heavily laden with sentiment (and subtext), but your invitation should be filled with anticipation, excitement, and exultation — just like your party.

And that’s the key to an invitation:

An invitation should be a preview of the event it heralds. (Tweet this)

This template is my favorite for a New Year’s soiree.

Now, before you start questioning my sanity, let me explain why.

The basis of this email template is classic. The image at the top has lovely, looping (yet crystal clear) writing. The exterior border has an eye-catching gold-shimmer, zig-zag pattern, which invokes both elegance and fun. And the layout (the configuration of building blocks that make up the email) of the template conforms to best practices — with one picture, less than 20 lines of text, and a company logo prominently displayed (without overshadowing the focus of the content).

What? This isn’t an invitation?

With a little imagination, it is.

With a few color changes, some different text (what writer’s call “copy”) and a call to action, this email template is now an invitation to a fundraising event for a nonprofit, hosted by a real estate company. Yes, you can fit all of that into an invitation with less than 20 lines of copy too!

February – Valentine’s Day

An event doesn’t have to be a party. “Event” is basically synonymous with “occasion.” It can be anything that’s new or special with your business.

So, for Valentine’s Day, your event could be a fundraiser for an animal shelter, an online sales event, or whatever else you can think of.

March – St. Patricks’ Day

Ah! The luck of the Irish!

This holiday is so lucky, it has an invitation template that’s perfect for a grille, pub, restaurant — any place that’s serving green beer on the big day.

What makes this invitation template so great is that it has all of the pieces already in place: company logo at the top — so readers can instantly confirm who the email is from; an image to catch the eye; followed by the actual invitation; an enticing image and description of what’s going to be at the event; finished off by an image of people attending the party (last year). This event invitation template also has space at the end for extra information to be added. In this case, charitable contribution information.

And my favorite part of this template? It looks brilliant on mobile!

With all of that already set up, all you have to do is type your copy over the placeholder text in the template.

April – Easter Besides being a great layout, this template has the cutest little background of hand-drawn bunnies, holding eggs.

I love this template because it’s lively, simple, and straight to the point. There’s no beating around the bush with this one. And very little copy that needs to be written by you.

To use this template as-is, just update the date and time, change the address, update the links, and “voila!” — done!

With that said, each component of the template is customizable.

Don’t want the church icon? Put your logo in its place.

Not sure about the colors? Change them.

Have your own Easter image to use? Remove this one and add yours.

If all you want from this template is the adorable bunny outer background (which you can’t get anywhere else), then you can strip the rest down to its core and rebuild it any way you like.

Easter email invitation template stripped down to two “spacer” blocks.

It’s up to you.

Now, I know that not everyone celebrates Easter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate spring or Earth Day.

Just like this invitation to get free yoga classes, your invitation doesn’t have to say “You’re Invited!” to be inviting. May – Cinco de Mayo

In the United States, Cinco de Mayo brings with it parties, margaritas, and tacos. And while Constant Contact’s Cinco de Mayo invitation templates are geared for Mexican restaurants hosting parties, it’s a breeze to customize them to your own company or organization.

June – Wedding Invitations

I know this was the one you couldn’t wait to see. After all, sending out a wedding invitation via email is still considered unconventional, but it can be done — and beautifully.

Since it is so unconventional, you won’t find a premade template under a search for “wedding”. However, you will find some lovely templates to work with by searching under other categories.

For instance:

This one comes up under “Invitation,” “Event,” and “Save the Date” —

This one is marked for “Mother’s Day.” But, depending on your colors, this is a great option as well:

I love the image of lilacs that’s exclusive to this template.

This is another template that I like for a summer wedding invitation:

I like this one because of the soft, understated flowers that trim the top and bottom of the template. I can’t get those on any other template. And although it doesn’t look like a wedding invitation, it doesn’t take long to change that.

July – Fourth of July

Okay, this is where I confess. This template is probably my favorite because I love the main image.

There are other, flashier Fourth of July templates out there, and I know this particular email invitation template doesn’t fit everyone. As an avid camper, this email template evokes an emotional response in me — every time I look at it.

Your invitation should evoke an emotional response if possible, and appropriate.

If you ignore the main image, the rest of the invitation is pretty straight forward. However, I want to point out that this is an example of a very informal invitation. As such, even though the “what” is clear, the “where” is implied. As long as your readers are familiar with your business, location, and facilities, it’s fine to not state the address in the body of the invitation. Also, the “when” is ambiguous — this particular invitation template gets away with that only because they’re inviting attendees to “come early” to camp on the property.

August – Back to School

For those of us in the United States, the kids usually start heading back to school in late August. And while it may not seem like a time to celebrate, school fundraisers seem to start earlier and earlier in the year.

With that in mind, although the placeholder copy in this next example says September and October, using it in August isn’t that far fetched.

If you’re not a school that needs to get started on your fundraising right away, think about having a special event for parents to celebrate sending their kids back-to-school. Or host a sales event for your readers to spruce up their wardrobe for the coming weather change. Or make an occasion of the first PTA meeting of the year.

Check out this postcard-style invitation for the Grand Opening of a building:

The possibilities for an event are endless — make one up!

September – Labor Day

The ideas I listed for August can work for September as well, but if you’re looking to host something special for Labor Day, let me suggest this template:

I like this particular template because it’s reminiscent of a backyard bbq. It’s also fun, bright (but not overwhelming), and it has all the important sections mapped out for you. Easy-peasy.

October – Halloween

I have a couple of favorite Halloween email templates.

This first one is set up for a sales event, but I love the layout and the fact that the entire template looks like one complete image, with text placed inside layers of dirt. Too fun!

This second one contains a .gif, and although it’s set up for a coupon, it doesn’t take much to change it into an invitation.

November – Thanksgiving, BlackFriday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, & Giving Tuesday

The month of November has a lot going on! And I’m not afraid to admit that it can be a little overwhelming.

Tip: Create and schedule your holiday season invitations early. That way you won’t have to worry about them when things get hectic.

There are so many great templates to choose from for each of these special days, that I found it impossible to find just one or two to share. So, here’s five:

Thanksgiving – I love the backdrop image on this one, and the fact that the text overlay can be changed makes it extremely versatile. Black Friday – This is my favorite template for Black Friday because it’s incredibly clean and neat, with an outstanding call-to-action button (the only part of the template that isn’t black or white). Small Business Saturday – I like this template because of the little “main street” image in the middle. Enough said. Cyber Monday – My favorite part of this template is the outer background. I can’t get that anywhere else. Giving Tuesday – This particular template is incredibly versatile. The main image is one that can fit almost any nonprofit. No matter if you’re looking for donations or volunteers, this one can make a great invitation to help. December – Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Chrismukkah, Friends-mas…

Whatever the occasion that you’re celebrating, there’s a template for that. Well, you might have to make your own for Christmukkah or Friends-mas, but by now you know exactly how to do that. But, just in case, here are a couple of templates to consider:

I love this template for Chrismukkah because it has a great Hanukkah background, as well as accents, and it’s super easy to add Christmas elements to it.

What about Friends-mas?

This template is just plain fun! And with some content changes, it’s a Friends-mas invitation!

How to create a completely customized email invitation

So, maybe you’ve used all the templates, or you just didn’t find anything that suited your needs. No problem. You can create an email invitation from scratch, or have one built for you.

Create an email invitation yourself

Creating your own template from scratch is much easier than it may sound. If you already have some pictures you’re thinking about using and have a couple of colors (like your brand colors) in mind, you’re ready to go!

Just start with a blank template.

Constant Contact’s blank template contains a single image placeholder.

Set your inner and outer backgrounds in the design tab and use the drag-and-drop blocks to build your template.

For this example, I inserted an image for my outer background, added a headline, a two-part block, a divider, and the social media icon set.

Once you have a layout that works for you, you can start inserting your images and writing your copy.

For more information on creating your own email template, check out our article: How to Create an HTML Template.

Have an email invitation template made for you

If you don’t have the time or inclination to create an email invitation from scratch, but you want something different and unique to your event, reach out to Constant Contact’s professional services team. The design team can create a unique email invitation template for you, where you can then insert the images and write the copy yourself. Or, you can have a member of the full-service team create the design and write the copy for you.

What to look for in an email invitation template

Whether you want something really simple and easy to put together, or you want an event invitation that is highly customized, there are a few things to pay attention to when looking for the right template for your event:

Outer background patterns. Not every background pattern is available for every template, so if you fall in love with a certain background, find a way to make that template work for you.Back-drop images. These are what I call the images that have text block overlays (the main image of the Easter template is a prime example of this type of image). These images are only available in the template they’re shown in, and they can’t be replaced, only removed — by deleting the block that they are part of.Accents. These are the little things that make each pre-made template unique. From the hearts on the Valentine’s Day template to the curly little dividers in the St. Patrick’s Day template, there are a plethora of little things like that which can’t be found on other templates.Exclusive imagery. These are images inside any given template. Each image is specific to that template, and while they can easily be replaced, resized, and removed, they can’t be moved from one template to another. The mustache, beard, and belt of “Santa” in my last example are all exclusive images. Annual Events and Consistency

If you’re planning an annual event, use the same template every year (unless you have theme changes). That way, everyone who received an invitation last year, will instantly recognize the invitation again next year, and that alone can get people to click that “Register Now” button.

And this is something that I cannot emphasize enough:

When it comes to online marketing, consistency is key. (Tweet this)

So, if you have a branded template that you use now for your newsletters. Think about how you can keep some of the main components (e.g. logo placement, and brand colors), but jazz it up to make it into an invitation.

You can create a unique email invitation for your event

With a bit of creativity, any email template can be made into an invitation.

And now that you’ve seen a variety of email templates, and I’ve shown you how they can be made into invitations with just a few changes, you too can create your own email invitation template. So get out there and start getting your subscribers excited for an amazing event!

How to Create Unique Designs Using Before and After Pseudo Elements in Divi

As web designers we are always looking out for new ways to add individuality to the websites we create. Divi provides endless opportunities to produce unique layouts but there are always little additions we can include to bring a design together. This is where CSS pseudo-elements come in really handy.

What are CSS pseudo-elements?

Put simply, a CSS pseudo-element can be utilised to style specific parts of an element. There are five types of pseudo-element that do different things. For the purpose of this post we’ll be looking at ::before and ::after.

These two pseudo-elements are used to insert something before or after the content of an element. This is particularly useful since we can use them to add extra visual elements to existing images, text and anything else!

So why would we use these pseudo elements? Before and after are perfect for unlocking design possibilities without needing to add more elements or modules. Equally, they are useful for adding additional elements without having to touch html templates or core theme files.

How do you use before and after elements with Divi?

If this all sounds a little confusing so far, do not worry! If we were to use ::before and ::after when writing the CSS code from scratch, it would look a little like this:

Imagine we have a line of text with the class “text-example” – the CSS to style and customise this line would be:

.text-example {*This is where you add the styles*}

Now if you wanted to add and style a ::before or ::after element, the CSS would look like this:

.text-example::before {*This is where you add before content and styles*}

.text-example::after {*This is where you add after content and styles*}

Fortunately Divi provides easy access to ::before and ::after pseudo-elements with much less hassle. In fact, if you have ever opened up the “Advanced” tab for any module to add custom CSS code, you’ll have seen the areas that we are referring to.

These boxes provide a quick shortcut to add and customise content before and after any existing Divi module and we can utilise them to create some really flexible and interesting designs.

Sneak Peek

This is what we’ll be creating in this tutorial:

Example 1

Example 2

Example 3

Getting Started

For this tutorial we just need a copy of the Divi theme and a blank slate. To begin with we’ll create a new page and, after adding a page title, click on the visual builder.

Now we’re ready to begin!

Example 1: Numbered blurb modules using Pseudo Elements

The blurb is probably one of the most flexible Divi modules at your disposal. In this instance we will use pseudo elements to add numbers before each blurb to create a step by step “how it works” section. We’ll also add an arrow shape to the right to indicate the process.

What we’ll be creating:

Although this design will work with any blurb design, we’ve borrowed the blurb section from the Web Agency Layout. If you’d like to use these as a starting point you can access the Web Agency Landing Page by creating a new page and accessing the front end builder.

When your page loads you’ll have an option to use a premade layout, one of your saved layouts or build from scratch. Select premade layout and use the search bar to find “Web Agency” Layouts. The blurb section in this tutorial can be found on the Landing Page.

Once loaded, the only difference between the premade layout and our example is that we’ve changed the background of each blurb, the title and text font colour and added a little padding.

Once you’ve changed these settings on one blurb, you can right click on the module and use the “Extend Styles” to apply them to the other three.

Now that we’ve customised our four blurb modules to look as we want them, it’s time to add some code to create the numbered element. However for this design to work we first need to add one line of css to the Main Element custom css box.

overflow: visible;

This will simply allow any elements we create in the next steps to be visible wherever they overlap the edges of our blurb module.

Once you’ve done this, open up the module options and navigate to the “Advanced Tab”. Within the “before” box, add this CSS snippet:

content: '1.'; /* Adds the number 1. as before content */ font-weight: bold; font-size: 80px; opacity: 0.7; /* Makes the number slightly transparent */ color: blue; /* Changes the color of the number text */ position: absolute; z-index: 9999; left: 0; /* Positions the content 0px away from the left border */ Top:-20px; /* Positions the content 20px above the top border */

Once you have added this code snippet you’ll see the number appear to the top left of the blurb module. You can amend the number’s position by altering the “left:” and “top:” lines or change the color and font size of the number within this CSS snippet.

Once you’ve completed this for the first module, go into the three new blurb modules and change the “content:” line to:

content: ‘2.’; content: ‘3.’;

…and so on.

Now that we’ve got our numbers sorted, we need to add a little bit of css to create the arrow shape.

Open each module and enter this into the After box within the Custom CSS area:

content: ''; display:block; height:60px; /* Size of the shape */ width:60px; /* Size of the shape */ position:absolute; top:40%; right:-30px; z-index: -1; background-color: #e8e8e8; /* Colour of the shape */ transform: rotate(45deg); -ms-transform: rotate(45deg); -webkit-transform: rotate(45deg);

Now your four blurbs should look like this:

Example 2. Adding unique shapes to your existing modules

This design relies on simple but effective little code snippets that are added to both the ::before and ::after custom CSS boxes within each text module.

The beauty of using pseudo-elements here is that we can integrate unique shapes and objects to our existing modules without needing to add any additional elements or modules to our page. Because these pseudo-elements are contained within our existing modules, they don’t add any extra space to our designs and remain looking great on all devices.

What we’ll be creating:

To create the initial layout we need to add a regular section with a three column row, set to default width. Once you’ve done this, add a text module to one of the new columns.

Again, you can style this text module as you’d like however if you are following along, these are the steps to achieve this design:

Open the text module options and add your text content and a background image or background colour as required. We’ve used a normal background image with a transparent gradient on top:

Next, configure the following design options:

1.Top padding: 120px & Bottom padding: 120px

2.Text Alignment: center & Text color: #ffffff

3. Heading Alignment: center & Heading color: #f5ee5d

Now that we have all of the visual aspects in place for your first text module, it is time to add the CSS to make the magic happen. In the Advanced tab of the text module, add the following code to the “before” box:

content:''; height: 30px; /* change the size to suit your design */ width: 30px; /* change the size to suit your design */ display: block; position: absolute; border-top: solid 3px #f5ee5d; /* change the colour to suit your design */ border-left: solid 3px #f5ee5d; /* change the colour to suit your design */ left: 20px; /* change the position to suit your design */ top: 20px; /* change the position to suit your design */

And then add the following code to the “after” box:

content:''; height: 30px; /* change the size to suit your design */ width: 30px; /* change the size to suit your design */ display: block; position: absolute; border-bottom: solid 3px #f5ee5d; /* change the colour to suit your design */ border-right: solid 3px #f5ee5d; /* change the colour to suit your design */ right: 20px; /* change the position to suit your design */ bottom: 20px; /* change the position to suit your design */

Once you’ve added these code snippets to the module you will see our fancy new shapes added.

If you wondering what this CSS does, it’s actually quite simple. All we are doing is creating a transparent square that is positioned 20px away from the top and left (and bottom and right) of the text module. We then add two borders to these squares to create the arrow effect.

When you’re happy with the look of this first text module, simply copy and paste it to fill the other columns and change the text content, background and styles to suit.

The bonus of this method is that it will work with pretty much any Divi module with a little customisation. If you want to be more fancy, try adding some additional CSS to rotate, skew and customise the ::before and ::after elements even further. Have fun!

Example 3. Adding icons and descriptions to tab titles

Within this design we will take advantage of the ability to add an image icon before some existing content as well as a small text description below. This is perfect for customising the Divi tabs module a little further than you are normally able to.

Note – Although adding content via css is great for design, it isn’t readily indexed by search engines (although Google does in fact index CSS and Javascript content, it takes much longer and is unreliable at present. Search engines like Bing and DuckDuckGo do not index this content at all). For this reason your content should be minimal and you should not rely on it to influence your ranking potential.

What we’ll be creating:

First of all we need to add our standard section and a 1 column row, followed by the Divi tabs module itself. Within the tabs module, we only need to add our titles and content to each tab as we’ll be handling the styles in the next steps.

Once our content is in place, we need to begin adding content to the ::before element of the module. Since we cannot add custom CSS to specific tabs using the method we’ve followed above, we’ll need to accomplish this slightly differently.

Open up the tabs module options and within the Advanced tab give the module the class “fancy-tabs”.

Once you’ve added this CSS class we need to do a little preparation. To add some icons or images to your tab titles we obviously need to add these to WordPress. Go to the Media tab in the WordPress dashboard and upload your chosen icons as you normally would.

With your images uploaded, we need to click on each one and copy the URL that WordPress has generated for us. Go through each of your images and copy and paste these URLs into a document or your chosen notes application.

With the URL’s of your chosen images at hand, go to your Divi Theme Options within the Divi menu in the WordPress Dashboard.

At the bottom of this page you’ll see a box where you can add your own custom CSS. It’s within this box that we’ll be pasting some CSS code.

The following snippet will add the images above each tab title. Simply copy and paste this snippet into the custom CSS box and replace the content between (and including) the asterisks (e.g. *Replace this with the URL for your first image*) with the URLs you noted earlier.

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_0 a::before { content: url(*Replace this with the URL for your first image*); padding-top: 20px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_1 a::before { content: url(*Replace this with the URL for your second image*); padding-top: 20px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a::before { content: '' !important; }

If you return to the page with your tabs module on, you should now see that the images have been added above each title – success!

So what about adding descriptions? Fortunately this is quite simple as well. Right below the code you have just copied into your custom CSS box, paste the following:

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_0 a::after { content: 'this is a description'; font-size: 10px; padding-top: 5px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_1 a::after { content: 'this is a description'; font-size: 10px; padding-top: 5px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a::after { content: '' !important; }

As before with your images, you’ll need to replace “this is a description” with your own content. Returning to the page with your tabs module on you’ll see we now have fancy descriptions too!

Finally, we just have to apply a little more CSS to achieve the complete design shown above. Again, copy the following snippet into the same custom CSS box:

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a:after { content: '' !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li { width: 50% !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li a { width: 100% !important; text-align: center; } @media (max-width: 768px) { .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li { width: 100% !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls { padding: 0 !important; } }

This code centers your tab text and images and increases the width of your tabs to cover the entire module.

We also added some CSS to ensure the tabs look good on all devices – if you’d prefer to not have your tabs full width and stack on mobile, we’ll need to go back and surround the original CSS code in a media query. This means that on devices the size of a tablet and wider we add the descriptions and icons, however on smaller devices we will revert back to the Divi default styling.

To do this, copy the amended CSS code below and paste it into your custom CSS area in the Divi theme options panel:

@media (min-width: 769px) { .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_0 a::before { content: url(*Replace this with the URL for your first image*); padding-top: 20px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_1 a::before { content: url(*Replace this with the URL for your second image*); padding-top: 20px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a::before { content: '' !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_0 a::after { content: 'this is a description'; font-size: 10px; padding-top: 5px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_1 a::after { content: 'this is a description'; font-size: 10px; padding-top: 5px; display: block; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a::after { content: '' !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_content a:after { content: '' !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li { width: 50% !important; } .fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li a { width: 100% !important; text-align: center; } }

Adding more tabs

In this instance we have created a tab module that includes 2 different tabs, however in practice we sometimes require more than this. If you are in a position whereby you are seeking to create more than 2 tabs, we will need to amend the code you’ve just added.

As you can see from the snippet, Divi automatically assigns a class to each tab title – the first starting with 0 (.et_pb_tab_0), increasing by 1 each time (.et_pb_tab_1, .et_pb_tab_2 and so on). We’ve already taken care of the first two tabs, so when adding more we can simply copy and paste a section of the code for every new tab:

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tab_0 a:before { content: url(*Replace this with the URL for your first image*); padding-top: 20px; }

and change the number in the class (.et_pb_tab_0) to 2, 3, 4 etc. You’ll need to do the same for your descriptions too.

The final amendment we need to make is to adjust one more line of CSS. Take the number of your tabs and divide it by 100. Note down this number and navigate to the following section in your custom CSS:

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li { width: 50% !important; }

and swap the 50% with your answer. This will ensure your tabs are equally spaced across the width of the module.

For example, if you are creating a third tab, the additional CSS code you need would be as follows:

.fancy-tabs .et_pb_tabs_controls li { width: 33% !important; }

In closing

And there we have it, three great ways to utilise CSS ::before and ::after elements to create new design possibilities. Hopefully this guide will inspire you to explore how you can use pseudo-elements in your future creations – the opportunities really are endless!

Fictional Websites Reviewed

The moment you notice some movie or TV show has decided that your area of tech or websites building is relevant to the story, and they are going to degrade it! (This is your yearly reminder that CSI: Cyber was a thing, and that NCIS once had two people type on the same keyboard to “hack faster”.)

Oh dear God…why? Thankfully, the representation of web design hasn’t been nearly as ham-fisted as that of information security. Sure, there are plenty of badly designed websites in movies and TV, but it’s getting better. Some may hate to hear this, but we probably have pre-made templates and frameworks to thank for that, because it now requires less effort to create a passable-looking prop site. For the heck of it, I went down memory lane (and did some Googling, if you must know) to list some of the best and worst web design that our fictional universes have to offer. Some of them exist only in fleeting screenshots of shows, while others have real, live builds up right now. Some exist in both worlds. Here they are, for your enjoyment. (Note: Some of these are old, and not all have working HTTPS. Just sayin’.)

1. Chumhum

There’s a moment that every techy in every corner of the tech industry knows all too well. It’s that moment when you see that some movie or TV show has decided that your area of tech is relevant to the story, and by golly they are going to butcher it in the cheapest and most simplified way possible Ah, The Good Wife. Was it a bit soap-ish? Yes. Was it also littered with stunning performances by amazing actors? Was the sometimes-over-the-top drama balanced by interesting characters, and genuinely hilarious moments? Yes to all of that. Protagonist Alicia Florrick represents a tech company or two in the show, and many plot points revolve around web technology and the information age. One of the most notorious examples is that of Chumhum, a Google stand-in that copies the dead-simple aesthetic, but adds a cuddly mascot. The screenshot featured here is of a live mockup that is integrated with DuckDuckGo, a search engine with a mascot of its own. My ranking: I can’t fault the UX or aesthetics for much beyond maybe the small height of the text box. I mean, how complicated do you want your search?

2. Trask Industries

In X-Men: Days of Future Past, Trask Industries is a corporation dedicated to dealing with “the mutant menace”. For all that, their website looks like a fairly standard corporate presentation-style site with a heavy emphasis on background video and simple animation. My ranking: It’s a bit JavaScript-heavy for my personal taste, but the aesthetic itself feels understated in a clam and professional way. I am gonna give it extra points just for the photos/video of Peter Dinklage, and say this is one of the better ones.

3. Masrani Global Corporation

The Masrani Global Corporation site (from Jurassic World) has a sort of low-key corporate feel like Trask Industries, and much less in the way of fancy flourishes. It feels a lot like a premade template. My ranking: It’s rather middle-of-the-road. While perfectly serviceable, it feels like they spent about as much money refining the details of their site as they did on not letting dinosaurs eat people. It loses a couple more points for having a splash video. Seriously, who does that? People who are bad with dinosaur security, that’s who.

4. Pawnee

The City of Pawnee’s website (Parks and Recreation) is what you get when you use a government budget on the cheapest, oldest HTML 4 template you can find. It’s got illustrations, very small photos, very little in the way of typography, and even less in the way of layout. My ranking: As a website, it’s terrible. And because it’s terrible, it’s the perfect prop. It’s exactly what you’d expect a small-town website originally built in the ‘90s (probably) to look like.

5. Pied Piper

Let’s bring it to the tech sector with Silicon Valley. This is Pied Piper’s website. It’s simple, it’s corporate, and it all looks exactly like it was designed by a developer who has a general idea of how modern websites look, but hasn’t practiced a lot. My ranking: As a website, it gets the job done. What really sells that “designed by a developer” feel for me is the typography. It has all the basic elements of a good website without the polish you get with experience.

6. War of 1996

Ah Independence Day 2. It’s a perfectly mediocre movie with a website to match. The design is presentational and modern, but kind of stuck in the ‘90s. I feel like that’s appropriate, though, since web design and many other aesthetic disciplines might stagnate with interstellar war on the horizon. My ranking: It loses points for auto-playing audio, even if it’s epic music and that fantastic Independence Day speech from the first movie. It’s alright, otherwise.

7. Save Walter White

The Save Walter White website (Breaking Bad) looks like it was built with GeoCities in mind. Since it’s supposed to have been built by Walter’s son, who is most decidedly not a professional. He just wants to save his dad. I think we can let this one slide. My ranking: It’s awful. It’s ugly. That’s appropriate.

8. John Watson’s Blog

9. Grade my Teacher

Last, and definitely least, we come to Grade my Teacher from How I Met Your Mother. This one doesn’t even warrant a ranking. It’s abominable. It’s an image mockup on a repeating background. Approximately half an hour of Photoshop work went into this, and then they called it a day. Look, if it was just going to be a static prop (nothing wrong with that), why would they bother making it live? This low-effort “website” should have stayed purely fictional.

For the heck of it, I went down memory lane (and did some Googling, if you must know) to list some of the best and worst web design that our fictional universes have to offer. Some of them exist only in fleeting screenshots of shows, while others have real, live builds up right now. Some exist in both worlds.

Here they are, for your enjoyment. (Note: Some of these are old, and not all have working HTTPS. Just sayin’.)

1. Chumhum

Ah, The Good Wife. Was it a bit soap-ish? Yes. Was it also littered with stunning performances by amazing actors? Was the sometimes-over-the-top drama balanced by interesting characters, and genuinely hilarious moments? Yes to all of that.

Protagonist Alicia Florrick represents a tech company or two in the show, and many plot points revolve around web technology and the information age. One of the most notorious examples is that of Chumhum, a Google stand-in that copies the dead-simple aesthetic, but adds a cuddly mascot. The screenshot featured here is of a live mockup that is integrated with DuckDuckGo, a search engine with a mascot of its own.

My ranking: I can’t fault the UX or aesthetics for much beyond maybe the small height of the text box. I mean, how complicated do you want your search?

2. Trask Industries

My ranking: It’s a bit JavaScript-heavy for my personal taste, but the aesthetic itself feels understated in a clam and professional way. I am gonna give it extra points just for the photos/video of Peter Dinklage, and say this is one of the better ones.

3. Masrani Global Corporation

My ranking: It’s rather middle-of-the-road. While perfectly serviceable, it feels like they spent about as much money refining the details of their site as they did on not letting dinosaurs eat people. It loses a couple more points for having a splash video. Seriously, who does that? People who are bad with dinosaur security, that’s who.

4. Pawnee

My ranking: As a website, it’s terrible. And because it’s terrible, it’s the perfect prop. It’s exactly what you’d expect a small-town website originally built in the ‘90s (probably) to look like.

5. Pied Piper

My ranking: As a website, it gets the job done. What really sells that “designed by a developer” feel for me is the typography. It has all the basic elements of a good website without the polish you get with experience.

6. War of 1996

My ranking: It loses points for auto-playing audio, even if it’s epic music and that fantastic Independence Day speech from the first movie. It’s alright, otherwise.

7. Save Walter White

My ranking: It’s awful. It’s ugly. That’s appropriate.

8. John Watson’s Blog

John Watson’s Blog was created to market the BBC’s Sherlock. While it certainly wasn’t a perfect show, they did pay great attention to detail in crafting the world. This would include what appears to be a standard blog theme that could run on any platform.

My ranking: It’s one more of those sites that I couldn’t call “pretty”, but it doesn’t need to be. It needs to hold words and make them readable.

9. Grade my Teacher

Look, if it was just going to be a static prop (nothing wrong with that), why would they bother making it live? This low-effort “website” should have stayed purely fictional.
