This is the place where I post my “graphic design” projects. I’m still learning, but I get better with each image. You can find my video projects on my Vimeo channel.

It may not look like much, but I’m pretty proud of it. I did it using only the elliptical selection and paths tools, along with some effects for blending and the lens flare. My only worry is that it may look more like a button than a ball. Let me know what you think!</p>http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/580602054http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/580602054Sat, 08 May 2010 00:50:21 -0500<p>I updated my tumblr theme again. I like this one because it fits my blog title, has a unique menu system, and is Disqus enabled (so I don&#8217;t have to dig through the HTML just so people can comment).</p> <p>I created the header graphic myself. I think it turned out pretty good for about an hour&#8217;s work.</p> <p>I found the new theme by searching Google, and found it <a href="http://m82.tumblr.com" target="_blank">here.</a></p> <p>We&#8217;ll see how long this theme sticks.</p>http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/574063736http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/574063736Wed, 05 May 2010 13:57:05 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l1wv3qd3eq1qak3bno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/571507087http://kobyrussell.tumblr.com/post/571507087Tue, 04 May 2010 14:50:14 -0500<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/11330259" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Re-exported my final video in widescreen format, but it took about 9 hours to replace the first version on Vimeo.

But then I watched it.

So&#8230;.my video may kind of come off as a news piece, because I did a voice over for it.
