If you do web design, i believe you would love to see the entire 1024 x 768 screen on your working area in Photoshop, but if you are only using 1024 x 768 thats not possible. So the solution is to go 1600 x 1200. With this resolution, you can happily see 1024 x 768 and yet have all your tool bars, palettes on the left and right side. I’m a convert!

Also, I can’t stand messy desktops with icons everywhere. I honestly think the “Auto Arrange” feature in windows should be removed. But even so, there are logical groupings that you can do with your icons, programs, files, work stuff, in-process stuff, new downloads, etc… So i’ve created this wallpaper for all those who would like to start organising their desktops. Have fun and go ahead to create your own version too.

When you have kids, you wanna spend time with them. When you have money, you don’t wanna spend them. But what can you do if you wanna spend time, yet not spend money? You can make stuff for them to play with. introducing Nick Pan’s Custom Slippers.

30 mins for 2 pairs and 3 hours of them loving it and walking around the house with it. I wonder what we should do next.

The girls are both growing up. Its was just like yesterday when they were like tiny fragile things. Now they they can both walk, communicate, laugh, cry… Life is just amazing. Thank God for kids.

Don’t know why but i’ve been thinking alot about death lately. Not so much of the actual dieing, but more of working backwards the amount of life i have left and thinking of how best to spend it. We will all die one day, we all know that, but i think its cool to work backwards and then have a different perspective.

Now i’m asking myself, “how much money do i want in my bank account at 50 years old” and i work backwards to see how i can achieve that. I’m also asking myself, “what would i want to be doing at 50 years old”, but more importantly “how many lives do i want to impact”.

hmm…
