half the fun of designing a layout in photoshop is slicing it up for the web. to me its just fun, yeah its production work but i love it.

i love production work, but i prefer playing with copy and layout.
splicing together mock-ups is very meditative for me too.
- BonSeff0
yep mayo, next comes the style sheets, choosing text color and sizes and the like

and for some reason. i love my rubber cement lift. though i haven't used it since my last art class years ago.
- BonSeff0
lol - thats so funny. is it in your "art bin?"
- mayo0
yes :) and my art bin smells like graphite and the gray kneadable erasers. very comforting :)
- BonSeff0
smells like mine. did you take still life and nekkid drawing classes? i got an art bin stained with charcoal, blending stomps, a gang of worn out erasers, a charcaoly old sock, big and little chunks of charcoal sticks and good memories. oohhh and arches paper. ah those were the days
- mayo0
i still use my art bin constantly. it's filled with charcoals, pastels, pencils, erasers, pantone markers and the bottom is still stained with india ink :)
- mayo0
oh and i just added a brand new brush pen to my art bin
- BonSeff0
respect mayo. you dun lernd the right way
:)i still got shit stuck at the bottom of the bin cause of that damn ink. not the black ink but the colored ink that came in the fat bottom with the eye dropper top. you know what im talkin about, notorious for leaking
- mayo0
that's the bastard! ruined my favorite sumi brush >:(

did you go to a college? i went to nmsu. it was the old gym from the 60's we dubbed the sweatshop, but a lot of good times were had there
- mayo0
any art classes i took were in high school or when i was able to work them in between degree classes in college. other than that, i am mainly self-taught (and sorely lacking in skills IMO). which means i have no sweatshop of my own to speak of. dammit i want a sweatshop!!!
- BonSeff0
sweatshop or no sweatshop, we end up with a leaky art bin
:) its all about the leaky art bin!
- mayo0
then i'm getting a leather jacket with an illustration of an art bin leaking blood on the back.
- mayo0
that's mine :) have you seen the new ones though? i think they even come with their own artist.
it makes me feel old. like comparing todays cartoons to what i watched growing up...
- BonSeff0
lol - their own artist, like bob ross pops out of each and every art bin and teaches each new buyer how to paint a happy tree
- mayo0
if you get the super deluxe one, you get an official Bob Ross wig.
- BonSeff0
bob ross is the base model - fer an extra $8.00 art bin will coat the base with monet's ashes to ward againts indian leakage
- mayo0
now do his ashes actually help or do they just give the "impression" that they do?
okay, that was even too cheesey for me...
