Some Redesigning

So here I am, stuck in my 5 hour intermediate computers class. This clearly calls for some blog redesign to match the website I'm working on. Nothing's live on the site yet, but I'll be sure to share when it is.

Personas!



For those Firefox users out there, you should know what personas are. Regardless, you should see my custom personas. And if you're also a designer, or do computer artwork stuff, you should make your own and let me see!

Someone Tells me to Shoot Things. And I Listen.

I have a new old hobby- Photography!

Thanks to that flickr account, and The Daily Shoot. I have an endless supply of inspiration for my photography needs.

But this is not a big ad for my Daily Shoot photos.

(They can be found here.)

Now Showing Indefinitely on Delkab Street

I have made it to the local scene of design.

I know this because I am now the proud father of a sign outside of O'Neill Graphics in Bridgeport.

I could go into how I designed it to look unique and easily readable, extending the second "l" and duplicating the dot of the "i" to create the '.

But I won't.

Here's the pictures to see for yourself.


And of course, should you ever want a shirt, you now know who to ask.

Flickr It!

Hello there, bloggy. You've been in neglect ever since I left Rome, and my life no longer seemed noteworthy. But, alas, my life carries on.
And here's what's new!

Flickr!
Thanks to the fun and amazing World Wide Photo Walk I attended last Saturday, I made a Flickr account. It can be viewed here. Right now, it has only 5 photos from the walk. At some point, out of sheer boredom, I will transfer all of my Digital Imaging photos from Rome on Shutterfly over in neat and organized piles on Flickr. (This may also mean that I remove them from Facebook, but I haven't decided fully yet.) I would like to keep Facebook for candid pics, and use Flickr, now, for more "artistic" shots.

Comics?
Don't hold your breath, but I do have BIG plans for the dormant M-Comics. I am writing out the premise, so I can get my "script" straight. This should make it easier for me to draw enough comics in the coming month to last the fall semester.

New and fun stuff!
This will help me get back on track with taking pictures. I highly reccomend it to nyone with a camera who just doesn't know how to get motivated.

And Then It All Came to an End

I've been home for a few days now, and have finally gotten around to doing a post for my last week in the Eternal City. All I can say is that I could not have wished for a better last week. I guess it all started when I went running on the Ancient Appian Way- 43:30. It was one of the most liberating experiences I've had. The weather was perfect, the trail was beautiful- there were ruins just kinda strewn about along the trail- it was AMAZING. The following day I went to the Colosseum and Roman Forums (the link to the pictures are at the bottom of the page), and made sure everything was packed.

The last day I was able to get to the Vatican Museums, the Capuccian Crypt, and Campo dei Fiori, where some fire jugglers were performing. Here's some video:



And here's some pics!

Now that I'm back home, this blog will most likely shift towards more design topics and photography. Hopefully I can stay up with it. So until next time...

Venice & Padua

So the last full weekend abroad I was fortunate enough to go to Venice and Padua with Sara. We saw all that there is to see in Venice, including St. Marco's Square at 5:30 AM. In Padua, I dragged Sara along until we found St. Anthony's Basilica. it was nice to see the final resting place of my namesake. In this last week in Rome I hope to do some last-minute tourism. Until then, you'll have to settle for the photos from Venice and Padua, which can be found here. I didn't take many photos throughout the week, so I'll add them to last week's photos when I get the chance.

EDIT: I got the chance. Here you go.
