So today I decided I would take a little time and blow up a building with Photoshop. This is actually for a client, but I thought it would be fun to share what I ended up with. Check it out here.

Fantasy Game UI Design
So today I had a craving to do some UI design which is great since I need to start pulling together design elements for a game I am working on. Today is dedicated to main menu design. I am going to be posting images for every step of the design so you can follow along and so I can review each step when I am done. You can follow along here.

Leave a commentWeb Wireframing Software . . .
OK, so the last few days I have been sucked into researching new webpage mockup software to help myself and my team develop in a more collaborative and low-fi manner.
I have narrowed down the search so far to:
- Balsamiq (http://balsamiq.com/)
- Flair Builder (http://www.flairbuilder.com/)
- Pencil (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/pencil/)
I would have liked to just used Pencil, but it is not Firefox 4.0 ready yet and it does lack a few of the features I like from the other two. I will update this blog as I try them out and let you know which one I end up going with.
I do recommend looking at this great post (23 Best User Interface Design/Website Wireframing Tools with Features and Comparison) thought to get a list of all the different packages out there. Also a lot of them are free to use as well so give them a shot.

Leave a commentNew Site!
Well I finally got around to redoing the site in an effort to fit in all of my recently re-acquired portfolio. Over the next week or 3 I will keep updating the site until I have worked through my back log of work from the last 5 years.
I am also going to start to use this site to track my weekly design projects and blog about them as a way to a history of what I learn and to share it with others.
