Your chances of being hunted by a turkey are low, but never zero.

What are user experience best practices when it comes to menus? We tend to take well thought out interfaces for granted, but much of the time they are the result of research and expertise. Sandstorm's own @JannaFiester breaks it down for brilliantly for us here: sandstormdesign.com/blog/mega-menu…

We were fortunate enough to to have our tech leader @JohnBuckBrooks spend some time with @Dries (inventor of Drupal) at #DrupalConPortland last week. Technical opinions, insights, and passions were shared with the openness and curiosity that are hallmarks of the #OpenSource movement. Both Dries and @acquia are 100% committed to rapid innovation, Drupal, open technologies and community collaboration.

Greetings from Sandstorm at #DrupalConPortland! Lots of exciting Drupal news, including "Starshot", #OpenSourceAI, and more. Our team is ready, and 100% committed to Drupal now and in the future!

@gaborhojtsy Well done! You know folks are committed to the future of Drupal when your session is so packed thatfolks are lucky to find an open spot on the floor.

Fantastic turnout for my Drupal 11 talk today. Almost out of stickers 😅 That said, I should have been better prepared with live captioning properly setup ahead of time to support you all! My mistake. Sorry! Slides are open source at slides.com/gaborhojtsy/dr… with speaker notes.

@NNgroup , thanks for recognizing our user-centered and accessible design choices on Crown Holding's homepage (crowncork.com), a long-time client that we love to work with. Interaction-triggered animation, while super cool, isn't for everyone!

At Sandstorm, #Accessibility is front and center of our design process. Here are a few basic issues we look for: - Elements must have sufficient color contrast - Links must have discernible text - Ensure headings (h1, h2, h3, etc) are in a logical order - Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text If you are looking for more accessibility tips from an @IAAPOrg CPAAC Certified expert, check out the full post: sandstormdesign.com/blog/how-make-…

We use #LayoutBuilder every day here at Sandstorm Design. It is great to see companies like @acquia innovating #Drupal tools like @SiteStudio, and providing an excellent comparative analysis.

Congrats to Nelson-Jameson (@nelsonjameson), on the launch of their reimagined website - nelsonjameson.com. Through our #usercentereddesign approach, we developed a new brand strategy and essence, “Delivering the Exceptional,” and a new #digitalexperience that is simple, intuitive, and responsive. We couldn’t be more thrilled with our amazing partnership. Nelson-Jameson is another great example of doing “good work for good people.”
