Got Add a Friend Working
Last night I got my Add a Friend page working. You can type in a name, I’ll do a lookup and show the avatar. If you click the Add button, I add the friend to the friends list, and also navigate back there. Now I just need to add a few details to the add page, and also clean it up to make it look nice.
Getting major functionality like this done is always a satisfying thing.
Now I need to start thinking about how to do the graphics for this app. I need a nice background for this page. Do I buy Pixelmator? Or do I run upstairs to my PC and boot up Photoshop every time I need some graphics work done? I can’t buy Photoshop again for the Mac, it’s too much money. I have an old friend who works at Adobe who can get me a copy for relatively cheap, but since I haven’t talked to him in a while I think that would be gauche. Right now I’m thinking that’ll probably have to pick up Pixelmator. It’s an easier workflow to have the app right on my Mac.
