YES WE DID

As I mentioned to a close friend minutes after the monumental occasion, this “has given me the new faith I needed”.

Thank you Swiss Miss.

“I’m a PC” part 2

Microsofts’ new “I’m a PC” ads appear to have made using CS 3 on a Mac. I don’t think there is any need to say anything more.

Thanks BoingBoing.

Another great artist is lost. Rest in peace, NYT article here.

“Be warned that you probably won’t have time to maintain it, which isn’t to say it isn’t worth doing.”

First post…

I have always been hesitant about writing thoughts and ideas down for a good part of my life, mostly because of the fear of looking back and saying to myself “What the hell was I thinking?”.

Now here I am writing my first blog entry documented not only for myself but for the world to see, now I can ask myself “What the hell am I thinking?”

Why?

The question every designer must ask themselves when working on a project. What is the purpose of what you are doing? Who is your audience? etc. I am having a difficult time answering the “why”. It might be as simple as I had seen someone else doing this and saw how easy it was and realised that I might be able to do it better. Or it might be that I needed to take a risk and put myself out there and see what happens. Regardless here I am or better here it is.

I would like to thank a few people out of many that have been a catalyst in getting this going.
Thank you Nadene, T3, Chris Williams, and Etta.
