Rock on dude

Here's a great image of Jack Black by US illustrator Arthur Mount - cool vectors. He's also just won a Silver Award in the D&AD 2005 awards. I commissioned him for an image a few years back - good to see he's still going strong!

Evil ads

You just know this kid is up to no good in this ad! He must be thinking of the end result of eating beans. Do not pull his finger. You can find more demonic kids in this gallery.

It's a heavenly read!

.net mag February 2006 edition - Heaven and Hell

On sale from now is the latest edition of .net. This issue shows you the good and the bad side of the net. For the good we have a feature listing 25 heavenly web design tools (and all free), plus an article on how to write a winning design brief. On the darkside of the net we question web standards, "Is usability killing creativity?". Also we take a look at the evil "healthcare" sites that peddle dodgy remedies to the gullible and unwary.

Artists providing illustrations this issue are: Gavin Strange, Humandescent, Tom Hughes, Jan Martin and AkA. Gavin provided the excellent cover image - I'll make a separate post about this guy later...

Corporate Zombie, by Nik Holmes

Threadless T-Shirts have reprinted Nik's great t-shirt design. Get over there and buy one (unless your arms have dropped off). Threadless have also introduced a new line of hoodies for those that want something a little warmer for the winter. Nik has produced some great images for me and .net in the past.
