Hello my name is Steve Lam and this is my portfolio. I’m a freelance web designer based in Toronto, ON Canada. I love cats, playing music, valid css/xhtml and generally all things music and design related. My aim is to work with indie artists, musicians and small businesses in achieving frenetic designs while adhering to today’s web standards.

For those who are curious, as an open-source advocate my favourite content management system (cms) is Textpattern!

That’s it. Feel free to contact me for a quote, creative brief, whatever.

Finally back online

15 August 07

Bare with me as I iron out the kinks on this site in the next few days.

Hopefully the ajax/mootools powered ‘live search’ above works for everyone. It completely breaks in IE 5.5/6.0 on my machine (though i’m using multipleIE and thus may be some msxml conflict?) but it should degrade gracefully as a normal search form when a user presses enter.

I just registered iblastoffmedia.com and will be transferring over soon enough. My current host (netfirms) is unbelievably HORRIBLE. From random database outages to random RESTORES. I had lost nearly 16 hours of straight work because netfirms reverted my entire sql database to some backup from yesteryear. Not to mention you get limited sql queries per hour and the fact that the mysql server itself is on a different machine resulting in timeouts coming out of the wazoo!

For now I go to bed listening to the semi-new Interpol album.
