(via FUN STUFF! | iPhone wallpaper | STUBBORN SIDEBURN®)

Due to high demands, I made some iPhone wallpaper for you! The images are already set to the iPhone pixel dimension. You can jump to this Fun Page section and choose the one you like. I am planning to add more fun stuff later too. Just remember, these images are for you to use only for wallpaper. I still own all the rights to artwork (these are registered and protected) and you are not allowed to reproduce the images in any means. I just wanted to pointed out because of copyright theft I encountered recently. Enough with the boring stuff. Hope you like these!

8of9 asked: What's your average finishing time for a "simple" project, say, 3-colors max, non-pattern based, at maybe 11x17? I'm asking this because I've been having the hardest time keeping even the simplest designs below a work-frame of under 5 hours, often many hours more. Thanks!

In general, I would say if I have 2 full days, I could finish it. But that’s the best case. Most of the time, I would have to discuss with client to understand what they really want. but typically I can finish that kind of job between 2 - 5 days assuming I work 8 hours a day.

I just updated my web site design. It was mainly because I used third party programs to display images before and it was fancy and nice but a little complicated and if something happened, such as malware attack, it was hard to fix it. So I had to re-program with pure css code this time. That lead to re designing the whole site design. I made it a little simpler but easier to organize and navigate. Most of the updates are for my back end to make it easier to update the contents. But it’s done. It ended up with a major updates but I am happy and I feel like I am ready for 2012! Check it out!
