The arrow of time

Awesome perspective of personal evolution over time…

On June 17th, every year, the family goes through a private ritual: we photograph ourselves to stop, for a fleeting moment, the arrow of time passing by.

Nice. I love peeking over the shoulder while folks craft things digitally.

From friends who are digital artists, retouchers, or illustrators, I sometimes hear stories of clients who suggest projects should go faster or simply cost less because the software “does it all for you.” While the tools are indeed more efficient and impressive with each new Photoshop

Man, I wouldn’t mind having one of these! I’d also like to pay $4.00 to see them.

Illustrator Recreates Quirky Childhood Drawings.

Awesome. For me anyway, I think if my I reworked my childhood artwork, it’d come out looking pretty much the same.

Nice little video tutorials for using Twitter Bootstrap. I only had a chance to check out the forms video, but plan to check out the others soon.

Latest In Anti-Theft Technology

(Via the TechEBlog, via Digg) the Brief Safe. How clever! They’re a pair of fake tighty whitey underpants with a secret compartment for hiding your valuables. Nothing special there, we’ve all seen clothing with special pockets like that before. The Brief Safe goes a step farther by adding a realistic looking skid mark on the hind quarters. If I was a burglar, rifling through your drawers, I’d pass those over, for sure!

Eh? What’s a Live Redesign? Its pretty simple. Blow away your current CSS styles and let your audience live with the unstyled content as you work out the new design. I saw it first on Simple Bits, but now other players are giving it a go.

Thu, 31 Aug 2006 00:00:00 +0000

If you haven’t noticed already (or you keep up to date via RSS), I’ve wired in Flickr photos and my latest Del.icio.us links. Things are coming together nicely now. I’ve gotta put my design hat back on for the next step: figuring some navigation for the rest of non-blog (resume, portfolio, running stuff, etc). Stay tuned!

Interesting, Web 2.0 Color Pallete

Wed, 23 Aug 2006 00:00:00 +0000

Modern Life Is Rubbish had a quick round up of colors made popular by the so-called Web 2.0 sites. Hmm, I think I might borrow a couple of them for my upcoming website redesign.

Mmmm. del.icio.us...

Mon, 24 Jul 2006 00:00:00 +0000

Ok, I’m not making any progress on my master plan to reinvent my website. In my grand vision, I’d like to use a single home brew tagging system to cover my blog, links, and photo gallery. But lack of energy and time pushed the delivery date some time into 2010, if make it a rush job at the pace that I’m going.
