Hi all, in the view that IPB 3 is going to be released soon a few guides will be posted up on this blog to help new and advance users to understand the new structure and interface.

So for the first in the series I have created a quick overview of the skinning system of IPB 3.x.x. This should help new users to get familiar with the interface.

I’m free and feel

I’m free, disheartened, confused, willing less, tired, bored, unconscious, stupid, guilty, dumb, discouraged, unforgivable.
I tore a wall inside of me today.
I explored the depth of a known barrel, today.
I know who are my friends and foe, today.
I saw an event that happens again, today.
I felt naked but not naked, today.
I realised what it takes to seek the end, today.
I know what it takes to get there, today.
I won and lost many things, today.
I tore a wall inside of me today.
Today I finished my second year and my phone is off the hook.

Let’s look at tomorrow.

I was looking for a Digital camera lately and I have stumbled on panasonics’ digital camera homepage and I was amazed and loved the color scheme they used on their website.

Illustration technique

.net magWell after 3-4 months with illustration technique they sort of stop publishing and now they subscribed me to the layers magazine.

The new magazine subscription seems much better as it has more than 30 pages. the good thing about this is that it covers all Adobe softwares and even more. It has a pretty good coverage of all aspects of design, photography, video and general tutorials.

But I still prefer my .net mag, which reminds me that i have to check to renew my subscription.

If I were to recommend a magazine subscription it would be .net or t3 mag

You can subscribe to any of them at myfavouritemagazines.
