Logo crit Oct 5, 08, 7:37 a.m.

A bit of background: this is for a friend who runs a mobile recording studio. I've developed the logo from a concept that his girlfriend (fine art graduate) did.
He's pretty happy with my idea (the first one just in black) but he asked for having the "skyscraper window at night" effect. And yesterday i was working in that direction.

What do you people think?

Is there any way to copy an effect from an object to another (as you can do on photoshop with layer styles)?

Quick crit Sep 14, 08, 1:04 p.m.

I'm doing a website for a friend's business: a mobile recording studio.
As you can see, the big drawing is clearly a very early draft and will be a flash piece.
Now i'm working on the look and feel of the underneath html
I'd like to know from you if the bottom (the golden boxes) part is conflicting too much with the withe part, or is ok, and overall if it's working or not.

Have fun ripping me apart.

Iphone = doomsday machine Aug 12, 08, 7:06 a.m.

to make it short:
Seems that apple have implemented on the iphone software a remotely controlled switch that deletes unwanted (from Apple, not from the user) applications.

"Apple raised hackles in computer-privacy and security circles when an independent engineer discovered code inside the iPhone that suggested iPhones routinely check an Apple Web site that could, in theory trigger the removal of the undesirable software from the devices." (from http://online.wsj.com/article/SB… )

Summery font Jul 16, 08, 1:57 a.m.

Morning everyone.

I'm looking for a font that has a summery feeling,
yet it's not too fancy/swirly/extreme but it remains quite clean but... interesting and something more than a common sans or serif font.

Am i making sense?

Thanks in advance.

Designing with grids Jul 2, 08, 8:43 a.m.

I'm about to start a new design for a website.
So I'm setting up margins, grid and stuff.

Do you guys have a method or a reason to go with a grid with an even number columns than one with odd number of columns?

I used to work with an odd number of columns (usually 7 or 9) because the space is less boring/static yet balanced, but since i've seen the "Grid systems" Book by Muller-Brockmann
this time I'm trying with an even numbered columns grid.

Anyway i'd like to hear your opinions about that.

Annoying IE6 bug Jun 18, 08, 10:25 a.m.

anyone can point out how to solve this thing?

Basically the checkboxes are inside a div and when the div is closed i get the repetion of the last 6-7 characters of that div... any known and painless workarounds? (usually adding br helps, but i can't in this situation)

Thanks in advance
