I was playing around with CSS grids and decided to recreate some typographic posters I had seen on the Futur ’s YouTube channel years ago. I think it turned out quite well and I learned a ton!

Huge thanks to @jensimmons as well since I used her site as inspiration on how to actually solve it.

RIP Fernando Valenzuela. Only 63! I just saw him on TV a month ago and he looked happy and like he was doing well announcing the games for the Spanish broadcast.

Last summer I watched an excellent documentary about Fernando from the LA Times and I can't recommend it enough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dcvx9i-ahg

YouTube

Like @marcoarment, I am interested in apps that can find patterns in my behavior and make useful observations.

For example, I learned that as long as I watch a lot of YouTube and stay out of southwest Massachusetts, I get more steps.

This is called data science.

Idea for a custom Apple Watch face inspired by one of my favorite watches, Fossil JR-1286. Its totally unlike any watch I have ever seen, which is why I love it so much!

Apple Watch Face — Jonathan Cunningham

I had always been a casual watch wearer up until the Apple Watch was launched. I owned that very first model and really never looked back at my mechanical watches. With one notable exception, my Fossil JR-1286.

Vector graphic exercise. Seeing as it's the 65th anniversary of Kind of Blue by #MilesDavis, I thought I'd re-create the test/white pressing & 1st pressing labels from the US, UK, France and Japan (Columbia Records & Fontana).

Hello, dear newly disgruntled Adobe Illustrator / PhotoShop / InDesign users!

You may like to know that the Affinity Suite is currently on sale for 50% off. No subscription. Perhaps there'll be one in the future for fancy Canva-integrated collaboration, but the base products will always be free. I'm an optimistic soul, so I believe them.

Yes Affinity apps can open native Adobe files. I've been a satisfied customer for many years, happy to endorse them.

I've said it and I'll say it again: Layout software needs CSS as a method of building repetitive patterns. How is this not a thing?

@onpaperwings I love the Affinity Suite so much. I really hope this bring big things for them.
