@dave_sherratt oh dear - whats happened to you?
-
anyone recommend a freelance retoucher/visualiser please? It's to recreate something - photoshop work I'd say
-
I don't understand why Photoshop is incredibly unresponsive on this mac here. It's unbearable to work with. CS5 was fine, CS6 like a dog

Finally got round to putting up print from blackout blisters (Taken with instagram)
Seems like Youtube have a slight sense fo humour with their server error 500 page
Fantastic concept from Japanese band SOUR. All you need to do is give them your access to your facebook account, twitter and webcam. Then hold tight and watch yourself take part.
It’s similar to Arcade Fire’s online interactive video they did earlier this year although perhaps this involves you even more.
I connected Tumblr to my http://flavors.me page - http://flavors.me/cwiss
Lovely idea from the www.opendesignschool.com . Essentially an ‘I-spy’ to see how many cliches your old Uni degree show has. Also beautifully and simply designed. Give it a whirl.
Hope they do something equally fantastic with the data/results
Lovely set of film posters redesigned by Chris Thornley. Diamonds Are Forever is fantastic
Great shower curtain. Only £7.50 too - bargain
http://mydeco.com/p/bloodbath-shower-curtain/c280c2ee087d4032b924ae29ab5fd563329ef63b/#variant=3
Great presentation from Tom Uglow from Google featuring some great uses of Youtube and it’s API
A link of 99 things you should have seen. Expect kittens, bad singing and fat people amongst the rest.
Stunning stop frame animation. Plenty of hard work has gone into this and it’s well worth it.
