  Time for another inspiration post. This post is long, long due. I remember when I first saw Anand Sharma’s work at Dragon Interactive. I was stunned by his clever gradients, pixel precision, cross-fading animation and level of detail put into everything. I remember wrongly thinking that his site used Flash because of the smoothness of his animations, and clever way of producing text shadows. No, he does it all in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

• Vote for Komodo Media!

  Apr 15 98 competition, design, tweetie, wpwebhost

  

  Deja vu? No, this is a bit different this time around. Last time, I was in a contest hosted by WPWebHost for Coolest blog powered by Wordpress and I won! I gave away everything. That’s right, I gave away all of the prizes and I gave away the money to Intermountain Children’s Home . It was an amazing experience, made possible by you.

  I’ll make it short this time. Komodo Media is now in the “Best Wordpress Design Contest” running for best Hand-drawn style. That’s right baby. Komodo Media was all done by hand, no stock graphics here ;) This time, granted I win, I’m gonna keep the cash for a much-needed video card upgrade for my wife and I’s late night habits of video game playing. All I’m askin’ is for a vote.

  Will you vote for Komodo Media?

  andCulture needed a smooth and silky set of 36 icons for an Adobe Flex web application that they had been working on. I was happy to provide them with this icon set and it was a great learning experience, as it was my very first icon set to design for Komodo Media.
