I don’t know about you guys, but I’m always one to take pen to paper before doing anything on the computer. Stuffing boxes within boxes to show divs with padding and margins,  scribbled lines for text, stick men landscapes for images etc.  It seems that this au natural design method is the way to go, have some early concept sketches for flickr, twitter, vimeo and all your fave haunts!

This week I added 2 new necklace designs to the finestimaginary online store! Go check them out and declare your geekery netspkery to the world!

What loonacy!

If you saw the advert, the Heinz deli advert, you’ll know what I’m on about. Basically, it’s a family situation on a morning but the mother has been replaced by a new york deli counter guy. He uses the mothers dialogue whilst making sandwiches, patting the kids on their head as they go off to school and giving them their lunches. Then the father comes down, grabs his lunch and heads for the door. At this point the deli guy’s all like ‘Aren’t you forgetting something?’ and the father returns and pecks the deli guy on the lips in a ’see you tonight!’ kind of way.

Here’s the video from youtube:

200 Homophobic cretins have complained to the ad watchdog about this example of dudes kissing, and the ad has now been taken down and Heinz have had to apologise… APOLOGISE FOR WHAT?!
Seriously? Watched the news lately? kids getting blown to pieces half way across the world? bloated bodies floating in rivers in Burma? Get some freakin’ perspective.

How’s it going? Any of you not on a feed will notice that there’s hundreds of balloons floating across hiphop right now…

How cool! I think it’s pretty, but loads of people are getting annoyed with it - srsly, just turn it off and stop your bitchin’.

Go support my balloon, Gerald, here!

Just came accross another good blog post over at the makeeda blog featuring links to some great photoshop/illustrator tutorials! Go check them out here.

This is one of my favourites, a really simple yet effective peeling sticker tutorial.
