Header Images

[Alistair Durie]

I'd like to use some new images for the coffeed.com header, if anyone would like to send some images to use for the site that would be cool.

I will code a subtext to put below explaining the image and crediting the photographer (if you wish).

send images to alistair()coffeed.com

thanks tonx! always admiring your photo's.

[Jimmy Oneschuk]

do you have the capability (or time) to tie the backgrounds into a PHP rotator?

[Alistair Durie]

thanks jimmy for the new header image.
i thought i would do a rotation script but i think i'll just do a new image every week.

if and when I get down to Hines (looks like Monday), I'll bring my super wide angle Alistair, and take some shots for your header, if you like. Should give a good wide scope for the low vertical pixel count.

Soo lucky... It seems a fruitless endeavor to convince my dad to drive down to Seattle so I can visit Hines... so I'll have to rely on your pictures! Do you plan on taking many?

excellent. its such a great place to shoot (pictures and espresso).

i feel like i'm just only falling in love and yet the girl is leaving the country.

Hines has, other than fantastic coffee, proven that typical items like menus, tills, fancy cabinet/millwork, uniforms and logo shwag seem almost unnecessary.
I don't think it will work for everybody, but if passion for the coffee is #1 then you might be able to duplicate their unique and eclectic style.

Haha... love the current header image with Horny.

Too funny: the paranoid, scared look on his face as he picks up the Espresso Vivace anniversary capp cup... as if he fears that David Schomer himself may be crouched down inside, waiting for the chance to POUNCE!

[Kyle Larson]

just curious, but does john know that you have his picture up on this website?

[Alistair Durie]

i have invited him over

[Kyle Larson]

so...does he know you have his picture on this website?

[Alistair Durie]

he does if he has seen it

[Alistair Durie]

Mark Prince shot this one during the last days at Hines, Hornall nailed 10 macchiato in, how many minutes was it mark?

[Jimmy Oneschuk]

great photo.

did mark drink all 10?

"krups" on john's sleeve. photo has been flopped; a no-no when there is print/logo in the photo. i once reemed an ad agency for flopping a photo of june while she was wearing a logo apron.


i know it's not a big deal here, but it's just one of those nail-on-the-blackboard things for former layout/graphics folks.

--barry "back when 'cut & paste' involved razor and wax"

[Alistair Durie]

when i flopped, another bonus (other than having a darker space for the coffeed logo), was that the krups logo turned into jibberish.

searching for new images, i'm almost tempted to use one of tonx's poisonous mushrooms... http://www.flickr.com/photos/tonx/55458139/

I have a lot of photos of equipment mainly roasters of all ages that have been rebuilt or waiting for rebuild.
