The friendly folks from online printing company MOO kindly sorted me out a couple of sticker packs along with their generous giveaway for my Blog.SpoonGraphics Access All Areas members. I chose to have my cool vector character (originally designed by the talented @BehindCadi) made up as a set to give out along with my little MOO cards at events. I also created a little badge design for my fiancee Laura’s driving school business that she can give out to her newly qualified drivers.

Since following James White’s awesome Tron inspired artworks I’d been itching to have a go at playing around with some cool techno lighting effects myself. After a long journey of ups and downs I finally polished off the last few pixels of my own Tron Legacy fan poster design. Here’s a brief look behind the scenes of its creation along with a little background story to go with it.

After attending multiple design events with no business cards whatsoever, I thought it was about time to get myself some fresh designs printed up. I always joke with people at conferences how after writing all these ‘design a print-ready business card‘ tutorials I really should have some myself, especially since I have about 5 potential print ready files just saved on my hard drive. Thanks to the awesome printing company Moo I finally have a series of cute MiniCards to give out in 2011.

Thanks to Clive from Harris and Wilson I recently got my hands on a freshly baked copy of the Threadless Book. Chances are if you’re a designer you will have heard of Threadless – The community t-shirt design site that is home to millions of awesome designs and illustrations. The Threadless book honours their 10th Anniversary and showcases 400 of their best designs on a year-by-year basis.

Long time readers of my SpoonGraphics blog may remember the project where I designed a unique logo for Vivid Ways, then write out the ‘making of‘ as a blog post. Since the design was finished in 2009 I’ve received numerous emails from my readers who took the time to let me know when they had spotted a rip of the design.
Recently I’ve started taking screenshots to create a little hall of shame, so here goes with the first 5! It’s a shame I didn’t think to take a copy of some of the earlier rips.
