64 VECTOR ARROW ICONS

January 9, 2009

Found these very lovely Vector arrows on Liquidicity’s website. They are all very well done and will help save me a bunch of time in the future. Usually, I’ll remake something like an arrow from scratch for each project because it’s such a good place to start to define the esthetic of the design.

May 15, 2008

I tried out tweedclouds today and found out just how boring my tweets are!  Actually to be fair it’s a mix of my delicious and tweets.  I already knew my delicious was chocked full of “interesting” stuff.  That’s mostly what I use it for.  To bookmark stuff that I won’t remember after a first reading, [...]
