I’ve been taking test video shots from my Lumix TZ7 and playing with iMovie. Here’s what I’ve got so far (better viewed in HD):

I’ll be posting more of these clips and video recipes as well.

I have revived my other blog – Argonship. I have a lot of exciting ideas running my head but I thought that it would be much better if I put them in their proper places. Thus, the plan is to post all design-related things and musing here in Pixeleden while all other stuff will be in Argonship.

As for Pixeleden, I will do another design re-alignment and move it to WordPress. I have built Argonship on WP so it makes sense to have the same engine for both sites.

My upcoming articles will be web design tutorials (possibly with short screen capture clips). It will feature some of the techniques I personally use with my design work. I am eager to share as a humble appreciation to the design community which in turn has been contributing openly.

After more than a year, I finally able to update Pixeleden! Got my hands dirty again on updating the site engine to the latest version. Although I am impressed and tempted to migrate to the shiny new WordPress, I am still loving the elegance of TextPattern.

I am currently making some touch-up here and there. I have removed the “Featured Projects” section in the homepage and just have the Work section for all of my previous clientwork. I will be updating the Contact page as well and put up some long due ideas.

I got a few tutorials and recipes coming up too. Stay tuned!

It is about time to get some design updates and upgrade to the latest Textpattern release.

First things first, I have updated the copyright statement at the footer. Pixeleden has been ripped few times now and some of those designs are still up live as if they have not received my C & D email.

Following the Creative Commons [CC] guidelines and suggestions, I have changed the usual copyright terms “All Rights Reserved” to “Some Right Reserved.” I am not changing the the CC license I have been using: Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works. I just update to the new version URL.

It has always been my intention to share my design works to inspire others as much as I am inspired by other’s great work.

Be inspired, creative and respectful.

After Pixeleden appeared in CSS Beauty on January 2006, it instantly got two types of reception.

First, Pixeleden got recognized and appeared in numerous Web standards/CSS gallery websites. Among of these are SmashingMagazine, CSS Reboot, CSS Import CSS Mania, CSS Green, CSS Blast (Russia), CSS Drive, CoolHomepages, DesignLinkDatabase (Japan), CSS-Demo (France), ProEstilo (Mexico). I would also like to mention personal blogs that featured my website, Cue.Zusan (Japan), PixelGangster (Germany), Andy Budd (UK), Patrick Haney (Flickr set) and many more that featured PIxeleden which I can not remember at this point. Thank you.

Second, pixeleden has been a victim of disrespect. It has been ripped several times last year and I would like to thank the people who took time to report these sightings: Denford.dk, Catholic.Net, Zygmunt Legutko, Marcel.Tv, Enstyled. I would like to stress out again that my site, its photography and all of its design elements are under full copyrights.
