design, diary, posters, sweden
Once in a while, I invite a few friends up to our family house in Sweden for a weekend. We enjoy the fire in the garden, good usually cholesterol-laden food and alcoholic beverages. Sometimes, even music. Most recently, my dear sister whom is also a proprietor of our fine house, has purchased a phonograph. Convinced that such a device is all it takes to mount a successful expedition to said location, I have not only acquired a fine selection of gramophone records, but I have produced a poster to celebrate the occasion. The poster will also function as an invite-to-be-sent. Eventually.

design, Projects, Work
With barely a tweet, I’ve launched a wallpaper website entitled Deskvu. Yes, part of the name is because the .com was available.

design, photos, zenphoto
The team behind the now sweetest photo gallery offering has just released version 1.1. Zenphoto now offers EXIF file information, sub-albums, auto-watermarking, video embedding, tagging and searching.
I’m proud to say that I was once a tiny minuscule part in the development, as I designed what to my surprise is still the default Zenphoto theme. [...]

design, gmail, google
There’s a new version of Gmail on its way. Supposedly it’s speedier and has better contact management. New screenshots also show a graphic change: it’s no longer Gmail, it’s now Google Mail.
Why? Here’s a few possibilities and observations:
Who makes Gmail? Google does. Did you know? Maybe your mom didn’t. She will now.
My my look at [...]

adobe, design, photoshop
It only makes sense. After all, it’s been almost 10 months since the last rebranding. It’s about time. Right out of the blue (heh heh): it’s the new logo for the Photoshop “family” of applications.
Let’s put on our scrutinizing academic design goggles for a second and look at the significance of this design.
It’s a [...]

adobe, design, flash, macromedia, software
Since we were shown the new Adobe CS3 icon set a while back, I’ve been, well, interested in how the new Adobe CS3 designs turned out. While they were set to launch tomorrow, March 27th, a canadian Amazon retailer has leaked promo images early.

design
Favicon2Dots turns your favicon into a 3D dot projection. It works rather well and is a quite interesting way to see a 16×16 picture. For a future update, I’d wish for semitransparent pixels to be not quite as tall as the other dots.
What does your favicon look like?

adobe, design, macromedia
Adobe has released a color wheel showing the new Adobe CS3 icons. But wait, a color wheel? Yep. As it turns out, the new brand includes icons that are simply colored squares with periodic-table-of-the-elements like names; Ai for Illustrator, Ps for Photoshop, Fl for Flash.
Sure, I recognize a … ahem … whole palette [...]

design, shuttle, wordpress
My good friend Khaled writes for all of the Shuttle team in his latest post, Contributing to Open Source. Shuttle was a redesign of the Wordpress administration section. 6 team-members worked hard to make sure it was the best it could be. Unfortunately, it seems, it might never reach Wordpress. See also a Flickr photoset showing some of the design process. I’m still hoping it’ll reach Wordpress.

art, design, random, spam
I’m proud to have supplied Sebastian Schmieg with fresh spam using his modified Wordpress anti-spam plugin. The results are in, and they’re pretty.
While millions of “bloggers” are annoyed SpamPaint tries to win something from this problem. SpamPaint converts comment spam into interesting and refreshing graphics and thus turns the table: looking forward to spam.
Spam is beautiful. Visit SpamPaint. Be sure also to read how it was all created.

design, flash
Lucky me, I’ve been nominated for “Most influential Flash site of 1998″ with my Turtleshell Flash site. It’s an honor just to be nominated, but I would really enjoy actually winning the title. So please, be a pal, vote turtles’ hell. Vote!
