Counter example!

December 14th, 2009

So there’s this website that let’s you convert regular image files into icons. You’ve probably seen it before, maybe used it once or twice. It has a donate button, which allows donations by way of Paypal. That button is there for one reason, and one reason only: to prove Karl wrong.

You see, he once posited that no one ever donates. And now, finally, after all six of these months and 100978 icon conversions, someone has. An entire American(USD) cent, and all the way from Italy. I mean sure, it may have been a mistake. I might even concede that it probably was a mistake. Either way, it’s a counter example!

Theory disproven.

Thursday is for squash

At least in theory. It didn’t work out.
I came by one of those recently printed Poseidon Plumbing business cards! I like them TBH.
I am happy with them.

Newspaper ads

November 3rd, 2009

It’s mysterious lack-of-website aside, Altered Effect is quickly becoming a design company. Which is cool! Design can be fun – and, you know… suspenseful.
Clients are definitely clients, but like many I suffer an urge toward diversity in task.

Am I traveling toward a lopsided portfolio, if ever one exists? Will I lose credibility when it comes to programming complex web-systems and sweet interfaces? It could happen – though, frankly, I doubt it.
It would surprise me if many noticed or cared. Still, it’s time to get more programming contracts if I can figure out how.

That being said (up above, in case you missed it), I am very confident in my ability to program, less so to design. So all this design is hopefully a good sign!

Dr. Stephanie Tsang newspaper advertisement design

Above is a newspaper ad for Dr. Stephanie Tsang of Tsang Dentistry. It still needs some work (I’ve only recently altered the layout, and need to play around with it a bit) but that should be pretty much it. Hopefully it is clean and clear, and attracts the eye in print. I’ve never designed anything for a newspaper before and can’t be sure what it will look like.

Yeah so.. I got a new monitor, and it is pretty large! It comes from Dell and is 30 inches in you know.. metric? No wait, that’s the other one. Anyway, It has a resolution of 2560×1600! Which is convenient because my old, and now tiny monitor was 20″ with a resolution of 1600×1200. So I turned that guy sideways!
Now they match and everything. It’s pretty awesome tbh :D

Here are pictures.
