He Jumps, He Shoots, He Scores!

Jumps Shoots Scores

I've been tagged to complete five main projects before the end of January 2009. Almost scares me to think that I would complete a project or two within the next few weeks, but I feel sure it is possible. 1. Create new logo for a new web friend. A little project that was given to... Continue Reading →

I Started A Meme!

I made the suggestion upon plurk for photographers to choose the best twelve photographs of 2008 (either one from each month or simply the favourite twelve) from their Flickr photo-gallery. Within an hour, I had chosen and published my favourite photographs of 2008. Over the last few days, three of my plurk/flickr friends also took... Continue Reading →

Keeping Boredom Out of the Office

For all those web-designers out there who want to use their time more effectively, you'd enjoy these five easy things to do when absolutely bored. 1. Design a Better/New Logo I call this 'doodling'.

I had an idea whilst perusing my photography uploaded to Flickr throughout 2008: Upload 1 photograph from each month of 2008 from our own photo-gallery's upon Flickr.

One Day Before Christmas

A few days prior to Christmas 2008, my father-in-law's mother passed away. Reaching the grand old age of 93 is quite formidable, so I was happy to attend though not directly related. Although she had been flown to Adelaide for some check-ups, her health deteriorated considerably so her family decided to fly her back to... Continue Reading →

Pixel Manipulation

If you hadn't realised by now, I am quite a GIMPaholic! In mid 2007, I took an interest in editing photography. Someone suggested Photoshop™ and another friend suggested GIMP. Whilst photoshop looked enticing, I won't deny that the idea of an opensource freeware program was the selling-factor to convince me to go with GIMP™. Consequently,... Continue Reading →

Comedy of Colours

I was digging through my archives looking for interesting photographs that had people in them to test the Orton Effect upon. When I found this, I changed direction. I figured I'd have more fun breaking this into three separate layers so I could put some colour back into the wall-art whilst making the wall monochrome.... Continue Reading →

Defining Findings

Nothing has changed in ten years: I am still an INTJ. After answering 100 interesting question within an application within Facebook, I have proven yet again that I am an Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging INTJs are very analytical individuals. They are more comfortable working alone than with other people, and are not usually as sociable... Continue Reading →

The Other F Word

The Other F Word

There is an old saying that's often said by people when people beginning an arduous yet not nearly so impossible project: "Failure is not an option". For those of us of a less-cynical, more adventurous and self-forgiving attitude, I have refined this to a more positive statement: "Failure is a consideration but not a hindrance:...
