Hello.
Hello. I'm Alex, a 14 year old interested in filmmaking, photography, the web, coding, technical theatre and making things. Welcome to my domain (hehe). Here's some stuff I've made.
I'm interested in making websites. In fact the one you're looking at now was made by me, with only Sublime Text 2 and Photoshop.
I like the idea of things integrating with eachother, and this is one of my main uses of the internet. I use If This Then That a lot to help me achieve this. Here's how just a little bit of my internet works: I take photos using Intragram on my iPhone. Those are then sent to Flickr automatically, and every photo on my Flickr ends up on my Tumblr-run photos.alexforey.com. But that's only the tip of the iceberg. I get a text every time it's going to rain in the morning, and all my Instagram photos are saved into my Dropbox for safe keeping.
If you're interested in how this site works, then keep reading. All the files are hosted on my own (shared) server, but the subdomain photos.alexforey.com is hosted with Tumblr, with a custom designed theme to work with the CSS files on my server. Of those I have three - one for the main styling of the website (style.css), including CSS3 Media Queries; the second (fonts.css) that includes the custom fonts I use one this website; and lastly I have another one that contains some fixes for iOS devices (idevice.css). These include getting rid of text shadows and including the icons in the nav bar even at smaller screen resolutions.
