The first ever Devsigner Conference is happening in Portland May 23-25, and we'd love to see you there!
Devsigner is a brand new event that will bring together frontend developers and technology-oriented designers and invite them to share their expertise, helping them take frontend development to the next level. We will be using Drupal as an assumed base platform, but since frontend development isn't tied to a particular backend, our audience includes any frontend dev and web-focused designer.
More information and registration: devsignercon.com
This is an opportunity for us to come together and learn from professionals beyond our spheres and explore new artistic directions for Drupal development, both classical and technical. This event will help creators expand their horizons through workshops and speaker presentations, as well as educate designers who would like to start creating for the web.

When: May 23-25, 2014
Where: The Eliot Center - Portland, Oregon
Tickets: $50 ($60 with after-party admission)
We're accepting session submissions until Friday, April 25 -- and if your session is selected, you'll get a free ticket! (Plus the combined admiration of designers and developers everywhere.)
We're looking for sessions like
- responsive web development for graphic designers
- color theory for coders
- industrial design for web apps
- why bad user experience is a bug
- what web technologies can learn from analog design
- iterative design in open-source communities
Sessions can straddle the designer/developer boundary, or they can offer lessons from one background or discipline to another.
Anyone is encouraged to submit a session!
If you have any questions about session ideas or the event in general, please let me know.

We've been watching the excellent proposals roll in, and spoken to a few people who were interested in submitting but hadn't been able to do so. We haven't made our final session selections yet, and after some discussion we've decided to extend the session submission deadline in order to bring everyone possible in.
New session submission deadline: THIS Friday, May 2 at 5PM (Portland time)
Submit your session to Devsigner now!
Let me know if you have any questions.
