Image and video smoothing with actionscript 2008-03-06 11:29:00 Image Smoothing
For some reason when Adobe released Flash 8 they gave the user the option as to whether to smooth an imported image or not. In the past this has been done by default and I can't really see why anyone would want the image not to be smoothed when scaling up but maybe that's just me.

This involved creating a clean, crisp, stylish site that was unique and utilized white space to maximum effect.

Font Creation Online 2008-04-10 07:27:00 Amazing idea this. Back in the day at university I had a go with Fontographer and haven't really touched it since. This is similar but online. There are limited shapes so you don't have anywhere near the control you get when created characters in illustrator but it is still impressive. The tools are intuitive and the keyboard shortcuts make it feel like a desktop program. The fact you can

I created a cover to go with my book and although it is seen as not very professional to include your own artwork when submitting manuscripts I wanted to do one anyway for the fun of it.
The original idea and

New site design 2008-05-27 11:40:00 As you can see the layout and design
of the blog has changed dramatically over the past day. I have been working on a redesign for the whole Nypocreative site and thought I'd implement this on the blog before anything else.

Tattoo design 2008-06-18 05:27:00 I was recently asked to design
a tattoo for a colleague which I have enjoyed doing so far as it's not something I have done before. Luckily he is into the vector type stuff that I like and I used some vectors from vecteezy.com to create this. I also like it as a t-shirt design.
