Incredible Examples of Superman Illustrations
Mar 12th 2010 by
I am sure many designers will agree with me when I say that comic illustrations are amazing, and I never get tired of looking at them. The core of a good comic is amazing illustrations, because, in my opinion, the words on the page come secondary to the graphic depictions they accompany. The essence of a comic is to lure the reader into an imaginary world through spectacular graphics, which include the use of color, shading, expression, action, and of course characters. One of the most famous iconic comic characters is the superhero, Superman, which is part of DC Comics. The coloring of Superman is composed of the three primary colors, Yellow, Blue, and Red, which give an aesthetically pleasing effect to this renowned comic character. Here are some incredible examples of Superman illustrations for you to enjoy! Get inspired!
1Interview with the Web Designer, Damian Herrington
Mar 10th 2010 by
As I have mentioned in our last interview, here at Admix Web we are doing an interview series, where we will conduct informal weekly interviews of fellow designers and developers. It is our contention that these interviews will not only give us great insight into the people behind the designs, but they will also help with networking, collaboration, and generally getting to know each other on a more personal level. We are still looking for people to interview, so please contact me at hlamarche[at]Admixweb[dot]com if you are interested in being interviewed or would like to nominate someone for an interview. Last week, I had the pleasure of interviewing the well-known designer, Brian K. McDaniel of bkmacdaddy designs. This week, I went on over to the UK and interviewed the new up and coming UK designer, Damian Herrington. Enjoy!
6How to Create a Fancy Image Gallery with CSS3
Mar 8th 2010 by
Even though CSS3 is still in the development stages, it is the new craze that many web developers are excited about. CSS3 is something that will take web development into newer and greater heights, while modernizing the web and allowing web designers and developers to make their creativity a reality. CSS3 allows for web techniques such as: text shadows, rounded borders, animations, custom web fonts, and much more. Recently, while talking with colleagues about CSS3 animations, many of them agreed how CSS3 animation is going to replace most of the JavaScript animation once it is supported by all the browsers. However, that is the downside currently to CSS3, because right now the only browsers that support it are Safari and Chrome, even though Opera 10.50 is going to support it soon. Today, I have prepared a tutorial about how to use CSS3 to make an image gallery with animation. I recommend to use one of these browsers to see the animations; however, the gallery is going to be usable in browsers without support of the animation.
1930+ Sites to Promote and Submit Your Articles
Mar 5th 2010 by
Most design and development bloggers post their articles in the more famous websites that accept community news, such as Digg, Reddit, DZone, Design Bump, Stumbleupon, Design Float and The Web Blend, but there are so many other sites out there to help promote your articles. In this post, I am listing 30+ websites where you can promote your design and development articles. Even though these websites my not be as well-known as the ones I just mentioned, most have a strong diverse viewing group, which can help to bring unique viewers to your site on a regular basis, as well as increasing the number of incoming links. Moreover, posting your news in the smaller sites tends to increase collaboration and networking because the people behind these smaller sites are more personal and want you to help them, as much as they want to help you. I hope you find this list of community news submission sites that fly under the radar useful! Feel free to add some additional community news sites in the comments section. Enjoy!
32Interview: Brian K. McDaniel of bkmcdaddy Designs
Mar 4th 2010 by
Two weeks ago, I wrote, We are Calling all Web Designers and Developers: We Want to Know the REAL You, an article where I requested designers and developers to nominate colleagues in the field for an informal interview conducted by myself. It is my contention that these interviews will not only give us great insight into the people behind the designs, but they will also help with networking, collaboration, and generally getting to know each other on a more personal level. This is our first interview to be shared with our viewers on Admix Web, and I am honored to say it is a great fellow designer who does so much for the design and development community. Enjoy this intriguing interview with the non-traditional, unconventional all around great guy, Brian K. McDaniel, of bkmacdaddy designs.
