Issuu: Free online publishing

June 4, 2008 · Posted in news, resources, web · Comment 

Issuu is a free online service that lets you publish e-books with a slick interface. I discovered it through DT Magazine which features James White in their latest edition.

It would also make a great portfolio since you can view every e-book in fullscreen.

16 Ultra Bold, Techno Style, Fonts for free

May 16, 2008 · Posted in fonts, resources · 3 Comments 

So here we are again with the free fonts list. Today I have restricted myself to ultra bold, techno style, fonts. I didn’t really know what to call them. Some might describe the fonts as retro or disco. The block letters are ideal for poster graphics. I bet you have all seen the amazing video of D.A.N.C.E by Justice. It offers a great illustration on how you can use this kind of fonts in simple, effective, t-shirt designs as shown in the screenshots below.
