Found a old blast from the past, a birthday present I made for Casey.

Don’t pay too much attention to the Lush medley… rather, observe the amazing design features of the site.
This is something an actual, real life, semi-human being asked of one of my colleagues when designing a logo for their website:
Logo: need a stable, recognizable image the elders will find comforting and the younger will find secure; was thinking of using a sillouette of a victorian era nurse as part of the logo, But to consider on individual and selected pages–to include a woman listening into a seashell for a page that talks about how we listen to them –they are our eyes and ears. I also like using the C three times like waves as the logo. Comforting pictures of elders with their pet and in their home–maybe I could get someone to hold snickers (her fucking dog)
Colors: studies are showing that red and yellow are more visible to the older eye than blues and greens. Maybe a primary combo of red, yellow and black or green would be good?
It always amazes me how few webmasters go crazy and end up shooting up design conferences.
So Halloween is here again, and once again, it makes life a little difficult having facial hair. Now other than the usual lame Jesus, Osama Bin Laden, ZZ Top or possibly Evil Spock (totally not lame). So I did some digging into what is out there for bearded men looking for Halloween ideas for the modern nerd – I figured cartoon characters, video game folk, etc etc. Almost nothing… other than some guy with a blog complaining that he didn’t have any ideas. Anyway, I put together this list as a start… feel free to add to it if you find this site… which you won’t.
Shot a while ago on the old green screen, but recently rediscovered.
Ok, not the greatest of the DSLRs… in fact I think it is the cheapest that Nikon offers, but these are unedited and look pretty good to me. I found this guy sitting outside of my house yesterday. If you know my, you can imagine this was a difficult experience.

Yes, that’s right folk, I posted a new story on lushforlife.com. Now you may ask yourselves, “What the hell does anyone care about a defunct comedy newspaper?” and the answer is “no one really” but I had a satirical news piece that was lying around with nothing to do. You see some of the boys here in Tampa (with previous L4L experience) were invited to try and spice up Toms Hardware Guide a bit by adding some comedic fair. However, yours truely’s second piece for the online giant was deemed too racy/racist for the clean-cut corporate image of the online magazine. Any way, if you’re interested in reading it, it’s here (RIM to Release Crackberry Standard and Pro), or if you want to read what we’re doing on Tom’s, we’ve done these so far. Enjoy!
So my brother has a band, and lives in Pittsburgh, so it’s was a little difficult to get out to see the show. However, they were gracious enough to film some of the songs. Not a whole lot of people around, but for a first show, I think they did pretty freaking well. They’re somewhere around the eels, New Pornographers and such indie rock with a bit of talent fare.

They also have a nice little website hosted by yours truely here.
Enjoy…
