A recent video we produced at RHED Pixel for the Family Online Safety Institute. Some important information for parents and educators (and good animated typography for the design crowd).

Asking for Your Help - American Diabetes Association
in Personal
I will be walking October 24 to raise money for the American Diabetes Association. If you are able to, would you consider making a small donation to the cause? Every dollar raised goes to help in the fight against diabetes. Someone is diagnosed with diabetes every 21 seconds, this is quickly becoming the leading cause of death in America. America's Walk for Diabetes is my chance to give back (and yours as well). If you find this blog helpful or entertaining, please consider making a $5 donation. Thanks!

New Photos Posted
in Personal, Photography
I've added several new galleries in the Photography section of the site. I mainly grabbed old photos, but I did spend 2 hours editing some new pictures today.
There are now pictures from Croatia, Bahamas, and Nevada as well as new HDR and flower photos.
I hope you enjoy
Design Police Strike Back
in Personal
If you've ever fought back the urge to pull out a red sharpie to mark up a sign or poster, then you'll like these stickers. There's a new website called Design Police that offers handy labels for identifying designer gaffes. While the labels are good for a laugh... I am sorely tempted to actually print these out on adhesive sheets. Be sure to click through all five pages... or download the set as a PDF.
