yay!

March 24th, 2009

I always like to show people work I’m proud of, maybe to ego trip or for an innocent pat on the back, I’m not sure. Lately I haven’t been able to share much I have done either as I’ve had to be secret or the sites haven’t gone live yet, hence the stagnated blog :-/

But anyway, I should explain the reasoning behind the ‘yay!’.

I’ve had 2 morale boosters which is always good.

(1) Recently I did a post on ‘top 10′ type lists overwhleming digg.com. Well I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that I usually tend to dislike them unless I appear on them! :)

It’s pretty cool that I managed to get on this as I’m trying to further my illustration skills and it’s nice to know this site is still getting some attention even though I designed it over a year ago. + extra morale booster for appearing in the same list as a bunch of design agencies and famous designer Andy Clarke.

(2) Second morale booster is that mach4cs.co.uk, a site I did for Pontefract based, computer repair company got on a design gallery site, generating a few hundred visits, which is bound to help the site’s SEO:
