WTF Musée May 21, 13, 6:52 a.m.

I noticed the different "I" between the two sentences. I'd like to find out what font is the one with the serif "I".

Thanks locos.

What is this thing called... May 21, 13, 6:53 a.m.

Hi,
I wonder about the english word for this little plastic toy tv's that contain 8 or 10 picture. You see them if you look through a little hole on the back:

Thanks

Server-side Video FX May 21, 13, 6:53 a.m.

Server side video effects.
Is this possible?

As example:
- User uploads video
- Server adds effect to video (e.g Cine Cam effect)
- User is presented with final effected video that could be downloaded or shared etc

If anyone has links to info about this kind of thing it'd be mucho appreciatedo.

The Purge May 21, 13, 7:53 a.m.

Some years ago I proposed a hypothetical national murder day. This movie parallels the idea almost exactly. Common philosophy or what?

Internet laptop things May 20, 13, 6:49 a.m.

Alright?

You know those netbook/Chromebook/small laptop things you can get these days – are they any good?

I quite fancy something with a proper keyboard that is portable that I can chuck in a messenger back that doesn't cost the earth.

I'm an Apple fan but blowing £1000+ on an Air or 13" MacBook is a little out of my budget these days so I don't mind sacrificing OS X if I'm only really using it for internet and basic document creation/editing.

What do you peeps say? Anyone got one?

Studio VS Agency VS Consultancy VS Firm May 20, 13, 9:59 a.m.

A question for everyone: How do you determine which noun is the proper semantic when describing you design/creative business?

To give some background - The company I currently work for is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a much larger company. We are a small group - about 15 employees, and are wondering what is the best term to describe this venture.

Studio - we feel studio might earmark us as 'too small' for our audience. Although our staff is relatively low we don't want to give the impression that we are just a couple of people in someones garage.

Agency - We feel this makes us appear larger than we are, although the term is not inaccurate. We just don't want to be mistaken for a really large agency.

Consultancy - this makes it sound like we don't actually do the work but rather simply 'consult' on it.

Firm - too boring?

Anyway, i'm curious to see what others think.

CSS WebKit image buttons? May 20, 13, 10:28 a.m.

Name this design style May 20, 13, 11:09 a.m.

I know it's kind of hipster-y but does it have a name? It reminds me of Delaunay Triangulation but that's more related to fracturing photographs.

A good Booking Calendar for WP? May 20, 13, 4:24 p.m.

I need a booking calendar for Wordpress that will display a calendar and highlight multi day events - and will accept booking though a form and via Paypal? Any good tips? I've been through a bunch and some have elements that are OK but nothing with the overall functionality I need...

I know someone posted recently about this and was given the link: http://demo.wp-events-plugin.com…

Any others?
