Late Update

15. July 2008

This is a very late update, but my shirt was selected by Design By Humans. I have moved to accommodate the new job and I've just had access to the internet at work. This is going to change soon so expect an update bonanza.

New Job

27. January 2008

Well, two weeks ago I started working at a small web design firm in Atlanta called DeepBlue. As irregular as these updates have been they are about to be even fewer in-between I'm afraid. It is definitely not a 9-5 job, as I have stayed till 10 o'clock on a few occasions already, so I don't foresee having a lot of spare time to work on personal projects.

The good news is that I am rapidly improving at CSS. I feel a bit overwhelmed at the other things I have yet to learn... Javascript and PHP, and that doesn't even include becoming more proficient with Adobe's software suite and learning Flash. I started some tutorials on Flash this weekend and it is becoming obvious to me how far I am from where I want to be.

A few weeks ago I submitted the frog t-shirt to Design By Humans. Out of the 29 comments so far, all are positive. Only one person is someone I actually know; the rest are completely organic. I feel very pleased with that fact, which is at odds with many of the designs on there where it's obvious the submission is being voted on by friends of the designer. This was not a problem on threadless because of the sheer number of votes made it difficult to artificially inflate the score. With DBH's small community, it makes it tempting to try to game the system. It is fairly obvious when that is happening so I trust that the site will take that into account when selecting designs.

I am eager to give Skeleton Party a facelift when I get the time, but that might be months away.

New Comics

Duck Conservation Society Brochure

09. December 2007

I added a brochure to the portfolio page. Just checked threadless again and they've sold out of all the children's sizes too, so it is officially 'sold-out'. I'll try to get a new comic up soon, things have been super stressful this week.

Monday Threadless announced my t-shirt design, which is now available for purchase. A day later it had sold out of all adult sizes, which I'm very excited about. New comics also.

RSS / New Comics

15. November 2007

I made some changes to the blog page and added an RSS feed. Two more comics are up, with a couple more in various stages of completion. There is a lot of work left to be done, but this site is starting to shape up.

Work Up

10. November 2007

My portfolio is now on display under the Work page. More to come.

Grand Opening

31. October 2007

Happy Halloween! This website is still going to be going through a lot of changes in the upcoming weeks as I get things ironed out. I may switch this blog over to a content management system in the future if I start making a lot of posts, but right now it would just be extra overhead.

I'm still working on materials for the shop, it will be a few months before that section of the website is up.
