Hello, I'm a Designer and Front-End Developer. I design and build front end systems and interfaces for the web, and graphics and layout for print. I work full-time for a wonderful organization called appendTo.

I write some times, teach, speak and have some side projects too. I love Jesus, am a proud father and husband, and am also a B-boy, skater, and Steeler fan. I've been to Kenya three times and my Kikuyu name is Mwaura. Sushi is probably my favorite food.

Now that you know so much about me why don't you say hi!

Sep 11	comment	How to edit pdf files in Photoshop without bloating the file size? You could also use InDesign.
Sep 11	comment	How to raster vectors (AI) into 1bit tif in 2000dpi I'd love to know what output device has 2000dpi??
Sep 11	comment	How can I remove a space between two words and still make it accessible? Probably is the best way to accomplish this, since CSS doesn't affect how Google sees your page or screen readers. And it's most appropriate because the markup is still semantically meaningful, while the CSS is only affecting presentation.
Sep 11	comment	How can I remove a space between two words and still make it accessible? Not "ex", "em". Em is the relative measurement to the width of the inherited font-size.
Sep 11	comment	How can I remove a space between two words and still make it accessible? Since this has to do with code, I'm not sure why it was migrated to the Graphic Design forum.
Sep 10	comment	Illustrator: Opacity Mask doesn't scale (i.e. follow vector art when scaling up/down) That will do it every time. Same thing in Photoshop, too.
Sep 10	comment	Is there a way to copy guides from one Photoshop document to another? Ugh. Sadly - no.
Sep 10	comment	Illustrator: Snap at some distance from existing objects you can also specify distances in pixels in Illustrator.
Sep 10	comment	Illustrator: Border effect for a path Sadly it doesn't appear there is. Unless you tinker with Offset Stroke some - although I've had a heck of a time really understanding how it works.
Sep 9	comment	How do I create symmetrical curves on vector shapes in Photoshop? This is the point where I get frustrated with Adobe for making software that is supposed to appeal to the broadest possible audience, rather than a truly remarkable tool that can fairly easily accomplish any technical task you throw at it.
Sep 7	comment	Photoshop produce a specific effect Also. to achieve the level of random lighting that the actual diamonds have, instead of one diamond, you could do four, or six, and make some of them seem to shine brighter.
Aug 4	comment	Creating a bokeh-like background effect in Photoshop @Jack, you can simply go to this page for instructions: graphicriver.net/wiki/selling/author-selling/…
Jul 29	comment	Creating a bokeh-like background effect in Photoshop Sorry Jack, I'm not understanding your question. What do you mean by how to "roll in"?? Do you mean how to join their site as an author? And thank you for the kind words.
Jul 26	comment	Graphic Design Conferences In my experience finding a good conference that focuses on both web design and graphic design is going to be difficult. I was at Photoshop World in February, but that conference tended to focus way more on Photoshop for Photography than anything else. And I just got back from an excellent conference called Front End Design Conference. It was an excellent web design conference, but no focus on print design. You may want to look into attending a couple conferences that specialize in one or the other.
Jul 19	comment	How do you make image masks? Your question seems to be about making a hexagon shape, but the title is about image masks. Please either reword your title, or adjust your question to make them coherent.
Jul 15	comment	Clickable stickers sticking out of a notebook @citelao - open a separate question for what?
Jul 14	comment	What's up with the one-page website design fad? Shauna, while I am familiar with the horizontally scrolling sites, I'm not familiar with the others you are referring to. I can however point you to a half dozen of those I'm talking about off the top of my head. (see edits above)
Jul 14	comment	Clickable stickers sticking out of a notebook Just realized you have the "some link" part, and the facebook/twitter parts. My answer is regarding the "some link" part specifically.
Jul 13	comment	What font is the “Sears Roebuck & Co” found on the doors to some Sears stores? Def you need to provide a source image please.
Jul 13	comment	How can I paint with 90% opacity over existing areas on a layer mask without increasing the opacity? There are always multiple ways to accomplish anything in Photoshop. Can you try to explain what the end effect is you are trying to accomplish? That might help us understand your question a little more, and give you an answer to get you to the end result. Also, it would be helpful if you could provide a screenshot for an example.
