Free Icons, 1300 of them.
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008
Great icons, I’m surprised I never came across these before, the largest set I’ve ever seen and nicely done to boot! Amazingly useful if you work in this field.
Go grab them at Everaldo’s site, he’s the maintainer of the project.

Illustrations for The Economic Times
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008
I added another gallery of illustrations done between 1994 to 1996 for The Economic Times, India. These were done in Photoshop 2.0 and 2.5, before layers were introduced in Photoshop 3.0.
I’d do a rough pencil sketch, scan it in and go crazy with Paths and Kai’s power tools, remember those. Some of the more detailed ones would end up with approx. 200 paths before my 40mb ram Mac IIci would choke.
Luckily they were all greyscale, when I started doing full color illustrations for Business Today, I’d work them up as miniatures, in half size, but that’s another tale…
You can view larger images on this page: Gallery, or you can see how they were published on this page: Print

I should have talked about how it would make people feel…

Our clients demand results, not labour. Why aren’t we pricing our value as such?
An excellent point made by: Eric Karjaluoto on the value of design.
