Back in 2006 i did a 1600 x 1200 wallpaper to help me organise my life desktop. Ever since i’ve got my 27″ iMac last year, the very first week I did this wallpaper to again help me organise my desktop.
I used the Linen Wallpaper from OSX Daily + the Effektive Inspired Grid Wallpaper and made this. My digital life is blissful and I wish you good health.
Got any other good grid wallpapers for the 27″ iMac to share? Comment below. Thanks. :)
So, Ernest Hemingway, Zelda Fitzgerald, Scott Fitzgerald, Pablo Picasso and even Salvador Dali were all sort of in the movie Midnight in Paris. This is a really nice time travelling romantic movie starring Owen Wilson. If you’ve not caught it, you should and you would be glad to know it won so many awards.
The film on its surface looks like a simple comedy, but its really a deep thought provoking story. It challenges you on the motivation of what you desire. It questions you on who you really want to be. It makes you ask yourself questions that will unlock the questions that you’ve not even thought about.
Simple and nice story. Well done Owen Wilson. :)
If you’ve not see the above ad, you should. It uses the classic three little pigs story to showcase The Guardian’s multi communication platforms. From print to web, from twitter to social media in general.
The amazing thing to me was that it’s the SAME message from their 1986 ad. See below.
If your brand have the same message for a good 25 years and adapts well over time, technological and social advancements, then you’ve done something very right.
Great job to The Guardian.
Now I’m off to be ZOMGBBQ amazed at their Data Journalism.
Had a fun time doing up this video with the girls. Pls forgive our super amateur attempt.
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I’ll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, Don’t leave me here alone
But all that’s dead and gone and passed tonight…
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe & sound…
Don’t you dare look out your window darling;
Everything’s on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music’s gone, gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I’ll be safe & sound…
Oooooo, Oooooo,
Lala… Lala…
Oooooo, OooOoo,
Lala… Oh Lala…
Just close your eyes
You’ll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I’ll be safe & sound…
Oooooo, OoooOooo, Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo, Oooooo, OoooOooo,
Oooooo, OoooOooo, Oooooo, OoooOooo…
Safe and sound
I’ve finally made myself sit down and update the theme of this site. The one above was a layout I hand crafted when “widgets” were introduced to WordPress back in 2006. Now with with a huge percentage of us surfing the net with multiple devices, adaptive web design is the way to go especially after reading Adaptive Web Design by Aaron Gustafson.
I’ve updated the theme with a free theme called Yoko, Its simple design made it a good base for me to build upon. The very first thing I did was to make the search results have 100 results and for it to only show the titles.
Next up will be to convert it to use LESS, so that I can have even better control of the site’s style.
