I don't claim copyright over this image. I upload it for commentary and criticism, and because it's wicked cool.
Taking a break from the equine sketches mini-series (which will be resumed later) I am offering this playful page filler incorporating text and imagery. It's just fun (I hope), atleast it was to produce. Enjoy! I love Flickr and all the interactive fun it offers. Peace and goodwill to all Flickr users (even though it's not Christmas). Julian.
I've been using this desktop setup for a few months now. Removed most of the clutter (alot of the geektool scripts didn't survive the upgrade to SL).
Like? Dislike? Comments? Observations? Random Monty Python Quotes?
Wallpaper is: Blank 009267 by *lethalNIK-ART on dA.
Folder Icons are: Opacity Folder Set by*Thvg on dA
Font is Caviar Dreams (Free on dafont etc)
HD Icon is unknown (cant find the artist or name)
To Do list is a plain text doc that with quicksilver used to add items.
I've been thinking about getting dragthing to make the icons on the left an actual dock as opposed to simply alias icns. Anyone else use dragthing? Like? Dislike?
From the Fallout Shelter Handbook, 1962. The copy of text that accompanies this photo (on following page):
"Card playing is a pastime that can easily occupy the whole family. Note also the variety of equipment and the neat compactness in this Permco Steel Fallout shelter photo."
Check out the fold-out bed to the left of Dad. I would love to see the "after" shot to this "before" after about two weeks of close quarters living.
Todos necesitamos nuestro propio jardincito secreto, el mio casi se seca hace un año pero de vez en cuando llueve.
Para La vuelta al mundo en su tercer aniversario ♥

Here's this year's Xmas card/self-promo piece that I sent out to everyone. I was going for an old boxing poster look.
I laid out the card and all the copy in InDesign (because it handles text much more easily than Photoshop). It was fun coming up with the old-timey text and phrases.
Once I got the layout looking the way I wanted, I imported it into Photoshop, where I drew and colored the characters on the graphic tablet. I also used the halftone filter to give it a printed look. Lastly I added the aging effects.
I guess the aging effects were successful-- my boss thought his wife had actually bent the top right corner of the card when taking it out of the envelope!

I'm fascinated by the text layout on this sign. I would have put 'blame and' on the same line, then 'punish the' on the next line, and then 'individual' on the last line. And I would have centered it all, but I like to center things. I also would have considered adding a smiley face.
I was caught in the act by street art photographer Mitch who sneaked up on me and I had no idea he was there,

I had the opportunity to illustrate a text of @MarcosBeccari for the Ciano magazine (v.2 n.1 2012)

Scan of the napkin from Carneigie Deli, featuring the trademark big green dill pickles served with your freshly prepared Reuben.
This is one of the old slides that I used to project in The Riverside, the music venue/nightclub I worked in in the 1990's. Back then, the only way to get text like this was to type it into DPIV on my Amiga 1200. Such a shame that software never evolved for today's machines. It had a great kaleidoscope brush feature and could produce animations ridiculously easily, which could then be recorded straight onto VHS tape to play on the bank of knackered old TVs from Uncle Hamish's dodgy 2nd hand electricals shop. Much fun.
It was also used as part of one of my favourite projector games, where by we'd sit in the dark with the projector lens cap on, and wait for a bunch of drunken chavas to wander up the bank. Then the lens cap would be quickly taken off and replaced a couple of times to flash the message onto the wall opposite. This usually caused a bit of harmless and entertaining confusion.
In the unlikely event that anyone is even vaguely interested, the whole set is probably best viewed as a slideshow.
