Reading the QA proofs for AH Magazine and I'm just stunned. @harleygin.bsky.social did amazing work on this, and it's been a pleasure working with her on the project. As I've said, and will keep saying, hire her and Chris. @hand-designed.com

We helped Patricia migrate her webcomics from Squarespace over to WordPress! Lots of quality of life that came from it! Patricia is an absolutely delightful client and does great work! ✨ If you need web design/development done, let’s have a chat: hand-designed.com

Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs. However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

You can flip a switch that makes Bluesky prompt you to add ALT text to your images! It's the first item under Accessibility in your Settings.

@handdesignco.bsky.social did the new Anime Herald, and I couldn't be more thrilled with their work. Hire them if you need a website.

✨ Site Launch! We had the honor of working with @breelundberg.com to design & build them an adorable & fun portfolio site! We’ve been big fans of Bree’s work and had such a great time working with them! 💖 Check it out: portfolio.breelundberg.com
