  • Dismiss Photoshop

    I rarely use a pencil these days. Which is unfortunate since I love drawing when I was studying. Perhaps I need to be more crazy in my future career choices. If you want to pay $20 (if your paying for shipping to Australia other $3) for a pencil you buy it here.

    Earlier this week I found an article on the web designer’s depot on Jakob Nielsen. Jakob Nielsen along with Donald Norman are considered to be experts within the web usability field.
