Seeing “Coming Soon” or “Under Construction” on a website, especially if it’s been “Coming Soon” for a while now. If you can’t afford a web designer or have no means of designing something yourself, you’re probably better off putting up a link to your blog, flickr or myspace; rather than have someone visit your website only to see “Coming Soon” - it’s such a waste of time for the visitor, especially if you’ve been promoting your website, or have a url advertised on your business card or flyer and yet there’s nothing to show. Also if you’re waiting for a super fancy website, you’re better off putting up something simple in the meantime. Personally, I prefer simple, especially if the content already speaks for itself.

I also think that if you have a website, you should update it from time to time. What is the point of having a website if you don’t update it? It becomes stale and uninteresting. Your visitors will lose interest and will probably never visit again.

found on ffffound. i guess i would fall into the red category = rebellious, radical!

On a better note, I am pleased to share with you Axis’ revamped website: www.stylepig.com. The art and the design of the actual website itself - from the handwritten links to the web graphics - all fits with the style & persona of the artist.

I managed to scrounge up some dough to buy one of his paintings (not shown)…I guess that’s one of the perks of being a 9-5 slave - you actually get to afford your famous artist friends’ artwork!

thanks, alfie!

I don’t usually brag, but I got this in the mail over the weekend; stencil caps and stickers courtesy of Swank One…thanks again dude! Now if i could just motivate myself to go out & paint and practice with these caps…it’s been a while. Now I just veg on the weekends from working too much. Sad.

of boredom…with Adobe Illustrator

It’s always exciting to see your friends succeed doing what they love to do; especially when you know they’ve put their blood, sweat and tears into a project. Anyways if you’re in LA, check out Marka at Munky King on Melrose this Thursday for his Mexico Minigod Release Party and Art Show!
