He's awesome, help him get a Wacom. My brother is entering the new Wacom contest, so help him get a nice Wacom by faving his submission, titled I want to leave this place. All of his work is really great, but this one seriously takes the cake. The detail is just so great!

He's a really hard working artist, so he'd definitely deserve winning the contest. Help him make his dreams come true! Just favorite his work, and it will count as a vote.

Please answer truthfully. This is something that has caught my curiosity. As a user interface designer, I do believe it's very important to take all criticism, even if it's from people who aren't designers. However, as a guy who was self-taught in design, I never had the privilege of collaborating hands-on with other designers in school - so in better terms, I've never really learned to be a team player. Despite that fact, I try my best to take in suggestions, as it's the average user who will be seeing it in the end.

But I'm curious.. Do you take criticism/critiques from lesser designers, or even people who aren't designers at all?

For those of you following the progress of WPmonk, and our themes, we've got some great news! Our theme called Flowhub is relatively close to being developed. I've just completed the homepage PSD - which took quite a bit longer than expected. But that's because I made all layers and folders very organized, and every colored element in the theme will have 10 different colors to choose from. As you can imagine, that's quite a few layers. The subpages should be completed in just a few more days. As a rough estimate, the theme should be up and for sale by around December 5th.

Some of you web designers may have noticed a House orly animated GIF that has gotten over 350 favorites in the web interface section over the past 24 hours. This is just fucking ridiculous. Does anybody else agree with me here? Not only do people submit garbage animated GIFs here, but somehow after placing them in the wrong category, they still get massive amounts of favorites. WHAT THE FUCK.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not just about the favorites. But when I've worked hard for years to gain my standpoint on dA, and then someone topples my work with a random animated GIF.

My point is; Do you think DeviantART is getting filled with too much garbage? I mean seriously, can you call this art? Also, please feel to call me an asshole, if you feel that I'm being one.

Like the post title states - PSDsensei has finally been coded. However, it's only the xhtml/css markup, so I still need to have it integrated into WordPress, before it becomes functional. There's also a few issues, particularly with the rendering of the graphic text. I'm getting that done by my good coder friend, Ayrton De Craene. With him doing that aspect, I'm sure it will be done a lot faster than it took for the markup to get done.
