New Look

fusion

After a long while with my old theme, it was long overdue to update the look of this site. Big thanks to the creators of Fusion, which is the basis of this new look you see. I’ve adjusted the header height, tweaked some elements in the sidebar, new custom bullets and did some color shifting. Overall, I didn’t really change it too much – it’s a nice clean theme.

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.

WhitingMy buddy Snacks sent this link over. An artist from the + gallery in Denver, Colorado named Michale Whiting created this sculpture at the left, “handplant” and many other cool things.

 

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.

retrostickers.comOld school skate heads always need a good place to reminisce – retroskatestickers.com is the place.

Pinball emulatorPinMAME is a pinball emulator along the lines of MAME, the arcade emulator. PinMAME does it’s best to re-create the pinball experience, and like MAME they work right from the original ROMs.

SpotcovrI had this same idea some time ago. I even bought a domain name. But, I didn’t act on it. The idea is pretty simple – a web site that users can log into and post their favorite skate spots. Spotcovr did it, and they built a powerful site, that users can log into and edit, post, and show spots the world.

I Love Patterns, you can too

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.

iPhone icons for OS X and Windows

iPhone icons

Apple iPhone is now days away. Some icons to celebrate. These icons are Jaguar ready, or they should be at least, in full 512 x 512 glory. Of course, I don’t have Jaguar to test them. So, I’m going off specs, but it should work. Download them for Mac OS X >download. And for all you windows suckas, I have finally given in and created icons for you fools also. These are optimized for Vista too, damn! Download them for Windows >download.
