good web

 

David CraneGameLife of Wired just posted some nice images of David Crane, creator of Pitfall!, in front of a running Atari. Since my game Skatefall! came out, anything promoting David Crane peaks my interest. It’s good to see these guys getting their due.

Nintendo street campaign“Wii’ll not forget” is a street campaign that re-creates classic game images with post-it notes. On the back of each note is a message about the Wii Virtual Console. This is not the first pixelated post-it note experiment, but good ideas will get copied, always.

Pattern Sample Pattern Sample Pattern Sample

Pattern Fun Pattern Swatches

I love patterns, repeat patterns and if you add some pixels then I’m all set. I needed to create a small hash mark repeat pattern recently and I got way distracted and created over 50 pixel repeat patterns. I decided to share them with the world. You can download the illustrator files here. There are also some simple instructions on how to alter the patterns, change them, and colorize them. Download the CS3 version, the CS2 version, the Illustrator 10 version, or for you old school heads, the EPS version.
