SCOT LEFAVOR UPDATES

By: Lifter Baron

Scot Lefavor
After Scot’s fantasimal work for the Manifest Hope show in Denver during the DNC, he has done some much deserved basking in its wake. Scot doesn’t sit still for long, and after swinging by his site to see whats new in his world, I noticed he has added some tasty treats to his store. Make sure to swing by and check out some of the limited run Obama posters, unsold work from the Manifest Hope show and delightful little trinkets from shows long past.

NEWWEBPICK - ISSUE 17

By: Todd Berger

Newwebpick issue 17 just dropped.  It’s really fresh and super inspiring.  We seriously recommend a download.

Enter the Dragon, “Bruce Lee (1940-1973), founder of Jeet Kune Do, had brought on revolutionary influence to the world of martial arts (and still does). Not only was he a ’super actor’ of sorts, he was also an incredible expert of the martial arts, mastering the mind, body, and soul in the virtue of expressing oneself honestly. On top of being an international star, he was a man of wisdom. With his unique views and mastery of the martial arts, he went so far as to creating his own style of martial arts: ‘Jeet Kune Do’.  I hope that through looking into this special edition of “Bruce Lee 32 35″ issues,  that you may find inspirations in your own life.”

 

CSS X iPHONE EMAIL SIGNATURES

By: Lucian Foehr

Something Norm Shearer of Cactus said at the Applied Ideas talk inspired me to share this with you all.  Not to say that this is earth shattering shit, but it can brighten up your and your client’s inboxes.

Here it is:

The whole thing is optimized (in particular) for iPhones. For example, if you get this baby on your iPhone, clicking on the address will open up the Map app, clicking on the phone number will prompt a call and so on…

Be warned that this signature is not compatible will all email clients, but if you write everything right the information will still come through.

So here’s the code!

<style>
p {font-size:11px; color:#666;}
a {color:#666; text-decoration:none;}
a:hover {color:#EF5BA1; text-decoration:none;}
</style>
<div style=”background-image:url(http://www.cypher13.com/images/efooter/v5.bkgd.jpg); background-repeat:no-repeat; width:325px; height:250px;”>
<div style=”background-image:url(http://www.cypher13.com/images/efooter/v5.lf.gif); width:217px; height:42px; text-indent:-9999px;”>Lucian Foehr</div>

By: Todd Berger

A great big thanks goes out to Ian Coyle and the MCA Denver for hosting the first of what we hope is many, Applied Ideas, talks on design.  It’s really fantastic to see the Front Range design community coming together for the greater good.  It was a real pleasure to have the opportunity to engage in a design-driven discussion with Chris Beatty of Cultivator, Norm Shearer of Cactus, and Ian Coyle of Superheroes - some of the top creative minds in Colorado.  Thanks again.
