Jupiter Pro, a better Trajan? Or just a really great titling font with lots of extra swashes? Beautiful either way. And there's a condensed version too.

Type Heavy Posters




Sometimes the challenge of focusing on the type with little or no other graphics can make a poster even more interesting.
University of Otago Magazine




The University of Otago's magazine cover design has interesting and elegantly modern typography. The inside design is restrained with lots of white space.
Photoshop Annoyances: Turning off the Pixel Grid
I never noticed the pixel grid in CS4 but somehow it was turned on by default in CS5. I found it annoying to zoom in and have the pixels outlined in white and I couldn't figure out where to turn the grid off for a while. Once I found it, I was relieved because it's so easy to turn off (unlike certain other frustrating CS5 interface upgrades that won't turn off like InDesign's frame edge selection feature).
In Photoshop, select View > Show > Pixel Grid. To turn it off make sure Pixel Grid is unchecked.
Gail's Artisan Bakery


Gorgeous red lacy detail on Gail's Artisan Bakery package design.
Lynn Magazine




What a sweet cover photo for the Lynn University's Winter 2010 magazine issue. I also like clean modern layout and use of circular elements in the magazine design.
White Rabbit Studios


White Rabbit Studios: an interesting vintage-style website design with a realistic lace background and appropriate typography.
Art by Natalia Campbell
Here are a few of my favorite photos by Natalia Campbell. I love the colors and the play with depth of field.
