joyce says hello from joycesayshello.com

Blogging is such a joy now that I'm on my own domain with my customised blog layout thanks to Yoko!
:)))
The satisfaction and happiness of having my own domain reminds me of when we were launching ttr.com but a lot less scary, hahaha.

If you're aspiring to be a full time blogger or just wanna have a nice blog for yourself or you own a webstore and are thinking of revamping it or looking to start a webstore and you want a really nice design...

GO LOOK FOR YOKO!
I even went to copy her information from her contact page in case you're THAT lazy, haha.

contact@yokoyeap.com
whatthepong@gmail.com

Yoko is really damn talented and I immediately liked what she showed me the second time we met up.
She's also damn efficient please.
Only took a couple of days to create this layout from scratch!
I actually met up with her about a month ago but my blog took quite some time because I was too fickle and didn't know what I want. Haha.
(And also partly because I took such a long time to get my blog header pictures ready, bwahaha.)

She was complaining how my previous blog layout gave her a headache because of the 'think happy thoughts' all over.
Hahahaha.
I still quite liked that though!!!
;(

Other than the logo Yoko designed for me (DAMN NICE AND IT SHOWS A HEART WHEN YOU HOVER OVER IT),
the function I love most in my blog is the 'OOTD' button at the top.
When you click on it, it shows all my OOTD photos from my Instagram.
Oh yes, by the way if you didn't know, clicking on the logo brings you back to the main page if you're on other pages like 'OOTD' or 'CONTACT ME' or 'ABOUT'.


So happy just looking at them!
Hehehehe it also means I gotta be more diligent in my OOTDs from now on.

Yoko is really damn awesome because she takes care of every single tiny little detail.
Like for some people, they don't really care about what font they use or how their social media icons look like or what effect there is when you hover over a button/link...
I remember changing the font 100000 times for ttr.com when it was still under staging.
And everything has to be properly aligned if not I will feel uncomfortable all over.
I'm very picky about these detail and they matter quite a lot to me.
Or you can call me anal also, up to you, hahaha.

But for Yoko, everything got nods from me and I didn't even have to request for her to change anything!
:)))
So happy to work with someone who cares about the same things that I do.

Took 2 days to take photos for my blog header and I shall post up the photos which I briefly considered using for the header.
But I didn't want my layout to lag too much when loading so I had to eliminate them in the end.





























Both sets of photos are taken by Sissy.
Quite talented also right!
HAHAHAH.
I told her I'm gonna hire her as TTR photographer next time.

Xiaobai was being terribly uncooperative that day though.
Hahaha.
She kept refusing to look at the camera and we had to try all kinds of tricks to make her do so.
Eventually gave up after a while (after we got the shots that we wanted).


Ending off this blog post with the 'contact me' information that Yoko did up for me.
Which I find quite amusing!
LOL.
