A Spare Update — No. 1

I’ve been pick­ing at FontLab — learn­ing the basics and start­ing on some advanced OpenType pro­gram­ming. I’m begin­ning with my very own hand­writ­ing, as I’m pret­ty famil­iar with it. My other awe­some project that I’ve put into action is some fun but­tons that I think are pret­ty cool and witty. I’ve put togeth­er a quick online shop­ping cart.

Headline Heads Up — No. 5

One Tues­day every month, I’m going to round up a cou­ple (maybe a few) awe­some dis­play type­faces to show­case and give a lit­tle break­down on each one. If you have a sug­ges­tion you want me to take a look at, drop me a line. Let’s jump straight into some head­line good­ness. Reina Foundry : Lián Read More > >

Wallpaper Wednesday — No. 7

On the first Wednes­day of every month, I’m going to pull togeth­er some inspi­ra­tions and resources I have around and make some sweet desk­top wall­pa­pers. It’s usu­ally just going to be one or two at a time. They will be all over the place, from type relat­ed to what­ever cool pat­tern I might be dig­ging Read More > >

Roman Type Wasn’t Built in a Day

I orig­i­nal­ly wrote the fol­low­ing post as a research paper for an under­grad­u­ate art his­to­ry class. Later, I took the text and used it as the basis for design­ing a book in a graph­ic design class. I’ve always loved all that I learned on the project and can hon­est­ly say that I enjoyed every hour Read More > >

I’ve been work­ing on this site in my free time for what seems like for­ev­er. Things are still not fin­ished. There is func­tion­al­i­ty and design improve­ments still to be made. There is still things to be tidied up in the back­ground. But I’m tired of wait­ing. I want to start putting myself out there. So, Read More > >

Firefox 4 Panorama Tutorial

Here is a quick screen­cast of the new Firefox 4 Panorama/Tab Groups fea­ture. I think it’s a pret­ty nifty helper for orga­niz­ing things since I some­how wind up with 2 win­dows open with 10–20 tabs in each win­dow. That can get pret­ty crazy jump­ing back and forth and around. Let me know what you think Read More > >
