Happy New Year

happy new year to my loyal reader. singular as most of the rest of you have probably given up on me by now.

And no, I didn't write this at midnight!. much later than that, although 00:00 seemed a more symbolic time.

hope 2007 brings you all love and happiness. or money/chocolate as personal preferences take you..

a "relaxed" SMF

Happy Christmas

Well hello there,

It's kind of been a while since I last posted stuff. Not really sure why, other than general apathy, but hey, enough of that, I'm posting something now!.

Here are my Christmas card designs for this year. From top to bottom it shows the progression of the idea I had.

The starting version:
[Notice anything missing?. I didn't until I'd printed out 10, although it does look very minimalistic, which is kind of what I was aiming for anyways...]


The first alternative:
[Santa can see again, although he appears to be opting not too...]

[Several other minor versions were created, but I forgot to keep copies, so we'll skip right along to...]

The final version:

[then I was trying other colour combinations and came up with...]

Something a bit more sinister:


Have a nice Christmas and a make sure it's a relaxing time too!

well well well...

here I am a couple of hundred miles away from my evil twin and what do I find in my possession...



some people will just leave these things lying around anywhere won't they :)
