I put a little one page portfolio site together for a few of my favourite photos the other week, please take a look when you have a few spare minutes. http://takenby.benjaminreid.me/ Behind the scenesThe photos are pulled in from one of my sets on Flickr called “Personal Favourites”, which I use to easily manage what appears on the site. It has some CSS3 niceties including transitions and fancy fonts as well. The site is really easy to theme in terms of colour. It uses one variable in LESS to set the main hex colour (the true colour of the name, “Benjamin Reid”), then all the other colours/shades are modified based of the original colour set in the variable. I was thinking about making the codebase open for tinkering on Github if there was any interest. So give me a shout if you want to know how it all works.

Each day (maybe) we’ll be posting those witty, “end of your tether”, and utterly useless commit messages. Why? Because they’re nerdly funny.

Please submit any commit messages you’ve come across as well, and we’ll post them them up in due course.

Follow along and join in the mockery!

I launched a new blog!

The Pirates!

thepirates-movie:

Have you ever been to a beard meeting? No? well you’ve missed out, I can tell you! I’ve been to loads. You wouldn’t believe the amount of beard action on this film! It’s beard this and beard that some days.

It all started a few years back sometime in 2008 when we were designing the Pirate…

Night Out at the Movies Painting – Pack Hunters

brandonjamesscott:

So this was my contribution to the Night Out at the Movies art show held this week in Ottawa. The theme was to take a movie, any movie, and do a piece for it, no words, no titles, ect. So of course I went with Jurassic Park. Big thanks to Kyle Marshall for inviting me to take part!

I love this illustration!
