I’ve been wanting to get some work up on CafePress but there was always never enough time. Until now! So if you have friends who are getting married*, you might wanna consider giving them cute and functional casual wear that they can use in pre-wedding activities.

In case you missed it the first time, the link to the shop is here. Again.

*it might be more practical for you if your friend lives in the US, just a friendly reminder.

Hmm, I just realized that the lower half of this page looks odd in IE for both Mac and PC.

Left: how it’s supposed to look like. Safari and Mozilla both get it right;
Right: Apparently, IE shoves the third column (containing the links and, *cough* the Google ads) downwards… I wonder why? Help, CSS experts?

“Building Stories” (or what a building might think if it can).

Chris Ware fans (me included, natch) will be happy to know that he has an ongoing downloadable strip at the NYtimes Funny Pages.

I would love to own everything they sell at Pixel Girl Shop. Check out these goodies:

Origami patchwork wristlet, patterned belts, sushi necklace and bracelet set.

There’s more where these came from.

For most of my career life, Ad Congress season would mean sleepless nights and extra-long working days spent toiling over work to be entered in the prestigious Araw Awards. This year though, it seems that I will have a feel of how it is to be on the other side, so to speak, as I’ve been invited to be one of the judges* for the Design competition — something I’m quite thrilled about because (a) I’m very interested to see what the corporate design world is up to and (b) I would certainly love to catch up with former colleagues again — I guess it’s like coming home.

*My first time for the PAC. The only other professional competition I’ve judged for was the PWA (2x), the rest are various UP and Ateneo student org art/design contests. Like I told Shei, I’m flattered although it kinda makes me feel… old, eheh (nervous laughter).
