Design A Day 07/26/2010

I always have grand intentions of creating Flash games. These are aircraft that I designed in Fireworks to use in a side scroller Flash game that I am building.

Tribal gone 3d! Just a little work inside Adobe Fireworks.

A Yudu screen printer! http://www.jeffthurston.com/2010/07/new-toy-a-yudu-screen-printer/ http://www.jeffthurston.com/2010/07/new-toy-a-yudu-screen-printer/#comments Sun, 25 Jul 2010 01:39:38 +0000 admin http://www.jeffthurston.com/?p=68 I have a project for a number of shirts. We looked at doing the ink jet/iron sheets but it just was not going to work for the design I wanted to do. The wife has been wanting a Yudu Screen Printer so, we pulled the trigger (luckily Micheal’s had it for a $100 off). Looks like it might be fairly easy to do. I will update after I get my hands dirty.

Design a Day 07/24/2010

Created the Urchin base in a freeware apps called Wings3d, the rocky shore and waters in another application and brought those images to manipulate in Photoshop.

Design a Day 07/23/2010

This makes a great wallpaper! There was created using a freeware application called Chaoscope (http://www.chaoscope.org/) it allows you to generate really cool mathematical graphics. I used it to create several different “Chaoscopes”. I then combined them into Adobe Fireworks, tweaked some colors and masked some items and ended with this result. I have a few more of these that I will be posting. (Yes, I did cheat and have a few designs ready for the days I do not get to create one on that day).

Design a Day 07/22/2010

This is my first initial design for my “Design a Day” project. I used a web application called Cacoo using the an arrow stamp. This would be a great design for a delivery company or a data sharing application.

Of course, I found a Word Press application and had to test it out. This post came from the droid’s keypad.
