Great Resource- Great New Look

By On 05:40
One of my favorite designer blogs, Media Militia, just got a facelift.

The new user interface has the main navigation right at the top of a huge image area that highlights recent tutorials and freebies.
For those of you  who haven't visited the site recently, it's gorgeous.

We Could ALL Use a Good Purge!

By On 16:07
It's finally spring, and time for the 2nd installment of my awesome clothing swap, Binge and Purge!  I asked everybody that I know to design the logo.  AND they were all too busy--except for my fabulous boyfriend who drew me an interesting logo in HB on a piece of card; needless to say, I ended up doing it my self.

I've been seeing a lot of times New Roman of late and decided to use that for my incidental text, plus the elegant and fun Avant Garde (I love you, Herb Lubalin!). Binge is a big, fat, dated typeface whose name escapes me--my little nod to the ironic. I hope you all like it!

In keeping with the theme, I also chose an incredibly thin chick to grace the FB event.  Here's what I came up with: and here's the autumn version.

This go round, we'll have the donations go to families in Nigeria.  I can only imagine that Jess' red and black french maid outfit went over really well when the packages were opened :)

That's all I've got for now, the new job keeps me pretty busy.

I just recently got back in touch with a designer friend, Chris Undi, and was inspired when I saw his CMYK ink

Yay, Chris!
And these folks too!

American Typewriter, if you will!


I should probably not really say anything about this last pic; I have ONLY branding and logo tattoos on my person--most notably Mister Boh! Here is the WTF moment of this post...
