In the Spirit of Election Day: Vote for Your Most Wanted Freebies

In the spirit of Democracy on this historic day, I’d like you to cast a vote for your favorite freebies, and I’ll get to work for you. I’ve added a poll in BittBox’s sidebar, where I’d like to give all of you a chance to chime in on what you want the most. Just another way to let you interact with me a little more. I’ll be changing the poll questions regularly from now on. Now go Vote !:)

Vectorstock Launches Re-Design, Adds “Free Vectors” Section

As many of you know, I’m all about free stuff here at Bittbox. I’d like to bring to your attention Vectorstock.com’s latest re-design, and the addition of a new “Free Vectors” button on the homepage. I’m not entirely sure if the button itself is new, but it’s clearly easier to locate the freebies all in one place. Vectorstock regularly releases free vectors and it’s even better to have them all in one place. As for the re-design itself, you’ll probably agree that its a great improvement on the old site. It’s peppy, responsive, easy to navigate and a new popup preview/zoom script has been added as well. Overall, I say the redesign is a success, especially 1 click access to the freebies! :)

Check Out My Article in Computer Arts 151

If you find yourself at a bookstore with nothing in particular to read, grab a copy of Computer Arts #151. I had the opportunity to write a small column on digital asset management. I had a heck of a time finding a copy of 151 myself, but I’m sure there are plenty of copies floating around out there. There is also a collection of my free brushes and textures on the CD. I’ve been a contributor to many magazines before, but this is the first “article” I’ve had published, hopefully not the last :)
