Illustrating a Hologram in Vector
During a Mozilla Labs week a while back, I was tasked with creating a logo for a yet to be realized project that centered around a person’s contacts. That initial experiment has matured into a full Labs project and is now up and running as Mozilla Labs Contacts, so head on over and check it [...]

Yet Another Blog Theme
It’s that time again, when I decide a couple of weeks is far too long to have the same old theme for my blog. I have to say, I think I may have an addiction of sorts with CSS and discovering all the fancy new things it is capable of in Firefox 3.5+. From all [...]
