I'm now making games

A year has come and gone since this blog became too popular overnight, my web server crashed at over a million views and the blighters at Namesco (not my choice) tried to charge me £1000. Times are a changin' and I've left the web design world for the land of computer games design.

I've started my own indie games studio and we're well underway on our first title. Thanks to everyone for their comments and support in my web design years and no doubt I'll delve back into the web/print arena when it comes to launching our first game.

Free Icons & Dropdown Navigation

I apologise for the short gap between recent blog posts but I am in mid-preparation for a round-the-world gap year experience and time isn't falling at my feet. I have however decided to spend an evening creating a sort of web designer toolbox in which your average Joe designer can just quickly pull out a themed set of icons and other design elements and plonk it into their mockup.

These will hopefully save some people some time and should be of use to beginner designer's who wish to learn how to create scalable artwork in Photoshop.
