So in light of of this I’ve decided to help in whatever way I can. The Childrens Society have organised an event called the London Walk, which is basically a 5 mile walk around London to help and support children in need. These kids really have no where to go to. They are often from abused households and are living on the streets because condistions have become so unbearable. They also help young refugees, helping them rebuild their lives into communities and life in the UK. They have alot of other programs, in schools, children’s centres and mentoring programs.

All in all they are a pretty cool charity doing some important work for the future generations of this world.

I’m not asking for a lot, just a few pence or pounds to help raise £100 for the London Walk. Its for the kids so every little bit helps.

I would apprecaite any support you could give. Thank you!

As you can see, you are now on the homepage. Here you can see updates on the site, my latest post(s), my latest work, my Twitter, Stumbles, work availability and what I am currently doing to entertain myself these days. All for your viewing pleasure. You can dive deeper in to the site either by using the main navigation above, or going straight to a piece of work or journal post. From there you can navigate through sections, search for something specific, log in to see NDA-protected work and browse through different topics. The rest of the site is pretty self-explanatory. Have a browse, get lost in it all and if you like what you see, let me know!

Enjoy the site! Its been a long time in the making.
(You can read about it here if you like.)

It’s here now though, so it can’t be all bad. But Its almost been a whole year since I first designed and concept-ed this site. It was combination of having a lot of work on and the fact that my developers were dropping like flies. I must have gone through at least 4 or 5 before having Shannon come aboard and finally get this thing together. I don’t want to dis or publicly mention who they are, but if one you is reading this…

HA! ITS ONLINE! *Clears throat* Right… Anyway have a look at some of the earlier versions of the site.

As you can see, I decided go html from the very start. Even though I am a Flash advocate, I decided to go away from the Flash-based website for my own use. Why?

1. Because it just isn’t easy to update, plus I do so many different things that making a really cool Flash site to go along with all the content would take forever to build.
2. The time it would have taken to build it would be even longer than this site.
3. I just can’t take looking at XML constantly to update my own site.
4. I wanted a robust CMS system, so WORDPRESS it was.
5. A fast loading site!
6. Uber Google-friendly.
7. Ability to easily change the look and feel of the site for when I get bored with it.

I know that Flash can do all of these things above by all means, but it takes a great developer to do it. Which I am not. Those developers aren’t cheap either.

At the time of writing this, the site isn’t completely finished. I still want to make this custom theme available for download for all. That will take some time, as it still has some way to go to be a Wordpress certified theme. If you notice anything that could help me and Shannon make this site reach full maturity… Don’t be shy! Give us a holla!

Back to the point. I find it interesting to see people mock up their dream technologies. It doesn’t happen with any other company (maybe someone can prove me wrong?), where mass press is generated off fan-created art. Still some of the concepts are quite imaginative and cool. Probably caused by the massive amounts of designers sitting in front of macs.

For your viewing pleasure I have scoured the internet for some interesting Mac Tablet / Touch mock ups. Click images for more info.

See all the pics after the jump!

It’s a truly amazing effect to see. I am guessing though, that you need to be recording in HD and then outputting to SD in order not to compromise on quality. None the less, I have never seen a “de-shake” software quite like this. My only question is … Whats the render time on these shots?
