Selective Content in Wordpress

I was reading David Airey's post called "What are your favourite creative quotes" and having a good laugh at the "You cant polish turd" quote, when I came upon his concern about including quotes in every footer. He definetely expressed a bloggers genuine nightmare of too many outgoing links. I started to type my tip in his comments page, when I figured that the larger population may benefit with this tip. The solution is very simple, and which I have used quite a bit in the Chilligavva site design.

Who would have thought?

A liitle while ago, my husband Massa was reading to me about Robin Williams and her books on design, typography, Mac operating systems, the iBook, and the iMac. I naturally was piqued and promptly googled her name. Getting into her personal site, and reading her personal bio [A good read by the way!] led me on to the location of her illustrator John Tollet's sketchbook. What a find! If you like sketches, you would like this site.

Something Happened at Webcreme

I have been quite a regular visitor to webcreme the design showcase site for CSS based websites. But sadly, the site is down, for more than a day. Wonder whats happening? Have they forgotten to pay their hosting dues?[Unlikely!] Has it been bought? [possible!] Has somebody posted an adult site and got reported ? [Probable!] Whatever it is, this is a sad way to go.
From a branding point of view, they may lose their niche position.. All that you get to see is a url that reads "http://baylor.hostingzoom.com/suspended.page/" with a message "We're still here and have not gone anywhere. Please excuse the mess and check back shortly. Thank you! Webmaster: Contact support as soon as possible." Quite a mess I must say..
UPDATE:  Its up and back as of today, 16 March, with never a note or acknowledgement about the off time.. Aw.... This kind of behaviour is not too good... Sad..

Poster Work

underwater_odysseyThis was an attempt at poster work. I had a picture of Miti at the Aquarium, and one of Massa walking. As usual I worked both the pictures in, and since it dealt with a lot of blues, etc. i named the effort, underwater odyssey, based on the colors and some mixing in of Miti and a fish image. Enjoy :)

Collage of Karate Images

karatecollage_smallThis is work that I did ages ago, but decided to upload today, after I reorganized my site. I used a free graphics tool called "Serif Photo Plus" to create it. I blended in a lot of Karate images from Mitis Karate class.
