A work colleague just introduced me to a fantastic website called Subtle Patterns.

It does exactly what it says on the tin – provides a library of subtle patterns to create some beautiful textures in your designs – all in a fluid and well thought out interface.

Click Preview on any of the patterns to see the pattern applied as the background image of the website.

 

Definitely one to bookmark for all designers.

A beautiful sculpture showing all the planks of wood which are cut from a single log.

Nice to see that each log isn’t shaved down to a single toothpick like in the Bugs Bunny cartoons (I couldn’t find a YouTube clip!!)

Creative Custard on Google Plus

By Ajay in All Posts | Google

Following the release of Google+ Pages earlier this week, I have created a page for Creative Custard.

First impressions…

Although it’s about time that brands etc can have a presence on Google+ too, the first release of the product is somewhat limited.

  1. Google+ pages are linked to an individual’s profile and do not allow multiple admins (yet) – something facebook pages have pulled of very well.
  2. No verification process in creating your page. Anyone could create a page for any brand/product and pass it ff as their own.
  3. Very limited profile information – only an Introduction, Contact info and Website link so far

Hopefully Google will be improving the product quick enough to keep brands interested… time will tell.

In the meantime, add Creative Custard to your circles.
