If there is one thing that is more desperately needed than a new post on miLienzo.com, it is an update to the I Love Social Bookmarking plugin. Two birds. One stone!
Since its release ILSB has had a few minor niggles related to certain themes’ CSS and which sometimes caused display problems and browser discrepancies - [...]

Those of you who have lurked around these pages for more than a few months will know that I finished college back in the summer after two years of being a part time ‘mature’ student. Well guess what? I’ve somehow talked myself in to going back for a third and (hopefully) final year studying Interactive [...]

Just over a month ago I designed and printed personal business cards for my graduation exhibition. In fact, I ended up printing a few more cards than I needed, but that’s another story altogether.
The design uses the coloured circular elements from my personal logo design, and the branding is consistent with my business website, printed [...]

My end of year exhibition finished today so I managed to grab a few photos of my stand, plus a few of others’ work which I liked. Generally the standard throughout the show was very good, particularly from the illustration students.

A few days ago I posted a personal logo conceptual design and asked for your feedback. What became clear from the comments I received was that everyone’s instinctive first response upon seeing the logo was not the response I desired. It drew the wrong connotations in the viewers mind.
So, back to the sketchpad I went, [...]

For the last two years in my spare time I have been studying New Media Design at college. It all comes to an next month, and for the end of the course I need to exhibit all my work at the end of year exhibition. The exhibition serves as a great opportunity for showcasing my [...]

Since redesigning miLienzo.com, I have had lots of positive feedback and one or two people have emailed me asking if they could use my WordPress theme.
The style and branding of this site is unique and that is important to me. However, it struck me that I could tweak the overall feel of the theme simply [...]

A couple of months ago I introduced you to my conceptual iPod with a roll out screen. As an extension of this project I have created an advert for the concept which carries through the branding, Widen your horizon.
This is still a work in progress, and you will see the last cut gets a bit [...]

At the end of February I gave a sneak preview to a work in progress on a spoof advert - a mash-up of the dance scene in Napoleon Dynamite with the iPod nano ‘colours’ advert.
I’m pleased to report that I have finished adding the colour swooshes - a process that took me well over 20 [...]
