I love the look of typography. Never had the opportunity to use it in my business yet. But as part of this new project of mine, here is a result of me messing about.

The Daily Photoshop (Number 1)
Monday, January 12th, 2009Starting today I have a new project. Every day I am going to post something interesting I have done in Photoshop. Doesn’t have to be smart. Doesn’t have to even look good. The importance is that I maintain a healthy relationship with the software. I’ll muck about. I’ll try whatever comes into my head. Hopefully I’ll learn some techniques and maybe even inspire myself and others out there.
So here is TDP (The Daily Photoshop) number one.
Just a gradient. Sprayed strokes filter then liquefied a circle in the middle.
Colonic Interrogation
Sunday, January 4th, 2009A friend of mine has started a new blog ‘Foodology’. Quite a fun idea. He plans to document every meal he has over the next year.
I liked the idea so I thought I’d help out if I could. These type of blogs tend to catch on, and have people coming back for more. A simple idea, but maintained regularly. The best way I thought I could help was to spruce up the look of the site. I mucked about with the stylesheet for a bit and you can see the result through the link below.
Best of luck with the site Jon!
