Welcome to the water cooler
We are proud to announce another newly designed and developed website that was launched yesterday!
The new site is for Derek Weaver of Weavco Homes, Derek and his crew have been building custom log homes in Central Oregon for years and also build log homes nationwide.
Weavco Homes offers it’s clients a multitude of Log Kits and Log Packages. Go to the site and visit the showcase to see what they are capable of building for you.
If you have not heard of Adobe’s Flex then you are in for a big suprise!
Flex is an IDE for building Rich Internet Applications (RIA’s) and let me tell you it is the coolest thing since sliced bread. In fact I am just getting ready to launch my first Flex application within the next few weeks to give you a peek at just some of it’s capabilities.
Now with that said I am just a rookie and don’t have many hours into Flex yet, but I plan on making it my primary focus, that’s how exciting it is.
So stay tuned as I deploy new Flex applications and add that to my bag of tricks.
I am really excited to start finding clients that need Flex Applications in Bend Oregon.
Enjoy the heat!
This one just saved the day! IE6 was not rendering my pages using min-height by itself.
I have been so frustrated with getting sIFR to work that i was about to throw on the scrap pile!
I cam accross this tutorial that actually explains everything that nobody else tells you.
For example what type of export settings to use when using Flash, font sizing, font coloring, etc….

Hope you find it to be as valuable as i did!
Don’t forget to check out the latest in new projects and happenings over at our site.
I have been using this technique alot lately, here is a good tutorial I found.
There are many advantages to using a single image for your navs, easy updates, additions, etc.
Enjoy this one!

I came across this little article on another site and thought it was really cool!
Thanks to CSS selectors you can use CSS conditionally. For instance…
a[href $='.pdf'] { padding-right: 18px; background: transparent url(icon_pdf.gif) no-repeat center right; }
This would attach a pdf icon to the right of any hyperlink who’s URL ended in ‘.pdf’ like this. I could show the file type visually with that application’s icon just by including a few lines in my master css file. I didn’t have to worry about it at all in my html, css would add the icon for me automatically.
This trick makes use of what the official specifications call “attribute selectors”. For instance in our above example we have our anchor tag which says to style this element for anchors and then, defined by brackets, [href $='.pdf'], we see if the anchor has an href attribute and if it does if that attributes value ends in ‘.pdf’.
Here are some nice Doc Type Icons for free download
Have Fun!
GelFuzion is proud to announce that we have had a great response from the local community and have just been awarded three new websites for local businesses in Bend.
We have just completed the new website design and business cards for Dusty Niles who is a local Life and Business Coach.
Next we are also in the midst of completing the new website design and development for Bookwise.
Lastly this month we will be launching the new website design and development for Tri County Climate.
We just want to thank everyone for your support in helping to put GelFuzion in the limelight here in Bend.
GelFuzion.Org is a new website to compliment the GelFuzion.Com corporate website.
This site was built to be an additional resource for locals looking for web designers + web developers in Bend, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco.
The site is standards compliant (thought we wouldn’t?) and is using a little bit of dynamic code to serve up the navigation items. This is just another place to showcase our work in a simplified cut down version of our corporate site.
Check out the site, get in touch with us, and let us know what you think or if you are interested in refreshing your own website, implementing standards compliant methodologies, and promoting yourself to a larger target audience.
If anyone out there in the Pacific Northwest is seeking a web designer or developer in Bend, Portland, Seattle, or San Francisco don’t hesitate to give us a call. We are currently accepting new clients.
Kind Regards,
Greg Buchanan

Hello there,
We just launched the new EcoDynamics LLC website which is basically a Rubbersidewalks representative for Arizona, Utah, and Hawaii. EcoDynamics, LLC focuses on eco-friendly products made from recycling tires. I love the idea of keeping tires out of our landfills and using them for sidewalks, mulch, playgrounds, etc. I think we should have started the green kick long ago instead of scrambling to catch up.
Anyhow we hope that you will visit the site to see what our Bend Web Designers and Developers did this time.
Since GelFuzion has moved into the Bend Oregon web development community we have found a lot of developers here. I was actually surprised at how many web designers and developers are in Bend.
We are just another fish in the enormous sea of designers and developers, although most of our work was being done for the San Francisco Bay Area we have been having a lot of fun building sites for the locals in Bend.
We just wanted to say thank you Bend, Oregon for being such a wonderful community.
The GelFuzion Team
