It’s always a pleasure to be working with Transmission and this time it’s the website for the forthcoming “Life in 2050″ art exhibition, curated by them as part of the Sci-Fi-London film festival, now in it’s ninth year.
Along with an impressive list of invited artists and illustrators, Transmission has held a competition inviting the public to submit an image of their vision of ‘life in the year 2050′ for a single place in the show. The winner will be decided by a panel of judges and submissions will appear on the site.
The site will launch early April at life-in-2050.com and you can catch the show from the 22nd April to 4th May 2010 at Proud Central Gallery in London. All artwork exhibited in the show will be available to view on the site, with prints available to buy online.
Rest assured, I’ll be back here with screen shots a plenty when the site goes live…
The new site for the international volunteering agency, 2Way Development, has just gone live with a nice new clean design by Tony Hung.
The home page makes use of a slightly modified version of upsidedowncity’s Twitter feed function combined with the jQuery Cycle plugin to create a nice little scrolling news feed. The cycle plugin is used throughout the site for all the image slideshows.
Go take a look.
Here’s something I found completely by mistake….
I often have to convert design templates from photoshop to CSS layouts, which means isolating small elements of the design to create icons, repeating tiles and so on. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to hide all layers except for the active one rather than scrolling endlessly through the list and hiding them one at a time?
Hold on, there is!
Hold down alt and click the little eye icon next to the active layer.
Maybe you all knew this already, but it’s made me happy today.
Another graphic design site – this time for Tony Hung, art director / graphic designer for a wide range of high profile clients including Kylie Minogue, Mo Wax, Sony and Parlophone.
The site, designed by Tony, is very minimal with it’s focus primarily on the images.
Features:
The site build makes heavy use of the jQuery javascript library for all the image transitions sliding info-boxesull CMS, giving Tony full control over both the image selection, image display order and menu options.
The main image area is resized to fit the browser window on each page refresh, based on 3 common window sizes.
