Another day In the life of me, Shot and edited on my iPhone 4

My wife Got me an iPhone 4 for my birthday.. I’m loving the upgrade from my crapped out 3G. I thought I would take a few seconds of clips throughout the day and try out the new iMovie iPhone app. I was surprised with the speed, and ease of editing. plus the quality turned out pretty good at 720p.. obviously you can tell which shots I took with the front facing camera. As you can see as a designer I don’t live to exciting of a life… But I get to do what I love. and spend it with the one girl I love.

Free WordPress Child Theme: Standard Simple

Jared — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 15:38:07 +0000

Had some time over the weekend and a quick burst of inspiration.. So I created a WordPress Child theme for the Standard Theme’s Monthly Free theme! Just like the name explains its… simple, But I took a little extra time on the navigation, and pagination, throwing a little awesomesauce into the mix.

So if you have the Standard Theme support license you can download it in the forums. If you don’t… Maybe you should get one, there is tons of help.

Found this cool Mouthpath script you can start and it tracks your lil’ guy while you work.. crazy to see all the movements you actually make.. this is over an hour or so when I was finishing up a project.. pretty intense!

you can find out more about it and download a mac or pc version to try yourself over at iso50.com
