Mike Davidson - Fun With Brits

Fun With Brits

April 17th, 2006

What on earth is going on here? I don’t know, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to create another Brit Pack Vanity Fair cover.

Click for a larger image… suitable for wallpaper in size. Questionable, however, in content.

The men’s scent will smell like CSS while the women’s version will smell like HTML.

Observe my bare chest… that’s ’cause I don’t have a Newsvine t-shirt.

Where’s your other hand? That’s what I want to know.

Shocking! Hilarious! A great excuse to look at this picture again!

But seriously, you’ve got time for this and you don’t have time to answer the meme I sent you?

Wilson: Don’t you know that Mike Industries is where memes come to die? I thought that’s why you sent it. :)

Now that’s genius!

As far as who’s really behind this, I haven’t one clue, but it’s been good fun.

Kartoonists beware!

I first found reference on Mike Industries’s blog which refers to this hilarious blog at Jeremy Keith’s Adactio which all leads back to Erik Sagen at Kartooner

I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of Scarlett Johanson in order to properly inspect it.

Woh! Jeremy who knew you were a model! The look on your face is PRICELESS!

Great photoshop Mike… The fact that Jeremy looks to be saying ‘How you doing’ to the hot makeup artist off camera makes it all the better… Jeremy lets show some proffesionalism please!

Anytime I wear more Adactio, my wife suddenly wants to jump my bones. Only I have to remind her not to call me Keith ;)

I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of my beautiful girlfriend in order to properly inspect it. And thanks to Adactio for Men, she can’t keep her hands off of me.

PBS Frontline - Breaking the Bank: An entertaining and illuminating hour-long look by PBS into the near collapse of the U.S. banking system. Frontline has done an excellent job of covering the financial crisis over the past year. Lots of good Ken Lewis/John Thain footage in this particular episode.

Long exposure shot of a Roomba cleaning a room — I owned one of these things and found it to be substantially more trouble than it was worth. While this shot makes the coverage area look good, a lot of “stuff” collects near the edges, cords and other impediments often stop the thing, and it just doesn’t pick up enough at the end of the day. Great photo though.

LogoLounge: Trends in 2009 Logo Design

A nice roundup of what's going on in the world of logo design. Looks like we're finally moving away from the whooshes and ovals of the last several years. Good stuff.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: The Unstoppable Skyhook - “I don’t recall ever being blocked by someone who was guarding me.” I’ve always wondered why NO ONE in the NBA has made the skyhook their go-to weapon. It is the most unstoppable shot ever invented and yet no one learns it anymore.

TiltShift Generator - Need to get myself a legit tilt-shift lens. Until then, I am more than happy to roll faux with this slick online tool.

How to create an HDR effect using only Lightroom and Photoshop

Great tutorial by Russell Brown. I really need to get up to speed with editing photos in RAW mode. Then again, I'm sure cameras will automatically take bracketless HDR photos within a few years as well.

Scripts which create interesting effects in Adobe Illustrator CS

... and here I am not even knowing you can run scripts in Illustrator.

Share Your Google Analytics Data With Everyone

Apparently, Google Analytics has a public API now. Pretty cool. Not sure this is enough to get me off of Mint, but maybe I'll start running both for a little while.

Hivelogic's Top 10 Monospaced Fonts for Coding

Will have to try out Consolas and Inconsolata. I've always been a staunch Monaco 9 guy, but hey, might as well get ahead of my eventually failing eyesight.

Overshared

Nice, Hi-Ball just redesigned their bottles so they are easier to open. Thanks, now I won't feel like such a wuss.
