Hipster Pinback Buttons and Magnets Excerpt - Skinny Tie, Moustache, Cassette Tape, Square Rimmed Glasses, Cowboy Plaid Shirt with Pearl Buttons

Hipster Buttons and Magnets

About two months ago, I made this awe­some wall­pa­per with some hip­ster icons. I liked the glass­es, mous­tache, skin­ny tie, and cas­sette tape so much, I decid­ed to make a set of but­tons and mag­nets. And if you are so inclined that you would like a set — maybe because they are flip­ping sweet, or maybe because they are such a great deal at only $8, or maybe because you can’t live anoth­er day with­out show­ing your hip­ster pride in a 2.25 inch cir­cle — you can pur­chase them through the shop.

Jewel Tone Gradients Preview - 16 Free Photoshop Gradients - Vibrant, Saturated Rainbow of Colors

Sixteen Free Jewel Tone Photoshop Gradients

I real­ized yes­ter­day I have been draw­ing on the same col­lec­tion of gra­di­ents as a go to resource and decid­ed to build a new basic set of col­ors. The col­ors I chose are very vibrant and sat­u­rat­ed — thus I am call­ing them jewel tones. I also worked the bright­ness and sat­u­ra­tion across the set so all six­teen are nice and consistent.

Synkron Main Window - App Review - Two way file and folder comparison

Folder Synchronization Made Easy

I’ve spent the last month or so look­ing at var­i­ous back­up and syn­chro­niza­tion options try­ing to find the per­fect solu­tion. I found count­less apps, Automator scripts, even ter­mi­nal com­mands — but every­thing kept com­ing up short. Finally my back­up prayers were answered. The app is called Synkron and it has com­plete­ly stream­lined my back­up and sync jobs. The ver­sa­til­i­ty and range of con­fig­u­ra­tions is absolute­ly amaz­ing. I can’t think of a back­up sit­u­a­tion this appli­ca­tion could­n’t han­dle. Read on for a full review.

Hipster Icons Wallpaper Preview - Moustache, Cassette Tape, Glasses, Skinny Tie

Wallpaper Wednesday — No. 17

I shaved my beard off the other day before spend­ing a week in the woods camp­ing. It’s just too hot to be deal­ing with all that. So with it went most of my hip­pie street cred. So I start­ed think­ing of other sym­bols of the hip­ster look — mous­tache, cas­sette tapes, glass­es, and skin­ny tie — and a desk­top wall­pa­per was born.

It’s About Time

Seems like things have been pret­ty hush around these parts late­ly, but I would like you to know that work has con­tin­ued on in the back­ground. I final­ly got so deject­ed and repulsed with the design of the blog that I start­ed work­ing on a new one. Then, I slow­ly spi­raled down the WordPress theme devel­op­ment hole along with respon­sive design and over­all aesthetics.

But now, for your view­ing plea­sure, the new SpareType!
