Mac OS X Leopard Network Icon for Windows

Tuesday, December 11, 2007

We've all seen the "PC" guy in the "Hi, I'm a Mac" commercials. These ads uphold a long standing tradition that Apple has of poking fun at Windows. I don't love them for their subtly, I save up that appreciation for more covert branding, such as Leopard's representation of a networked PC.

I first snickered at the beige CRT monitor (I still want to know who said "hey, lets paint them dirty so they look like new in 5 years!"). Then I noticed the blue screen of death, the likes of which most PC users haven't seen too much of for years, yet the memory remains clear as yesterday.

While on the topic, I use to consider Windows a predecessor of Free-BSD (it's an acronym joke, now laugh).

Redesign IIb

Friday, November 23, 2007

Turns out I'm super picky. I just couldn't leave it alone. I've tweaked this design moure than Paris Hilton tweaks her nose. Still plugging away at it, but I'm much happier with it (again)... now if I could only get onto some actual content! ^^;;

Redesign Part II

Sunday, November 4, 2007

My sin is definitely Sloth. I sat on that last design in 'beta' for so long that I got sick of looking at it. Meanwhile, doing a bit of css and stuff at work inspired me to get my butt in gear on something that doesn't suck... and lo! I feel this design is reasonably better. It's also moure flexible (at least in my head... got ideas for future development).

While I haven't quite got it working in it's fully embedded format, I have at least a couple galleries in the works, so I don't have to rely exclusively on Deviant Art (not that I don't love DA).

I'd also like to go on record saying Blogger has some shortcomings... I'm already using a couple php hacks and foresee a couple moure. Still, it's enabled me to get moving again, ever so slowly.

Moure to come, and I'm always open to suggestions on what to put up here.
