Wanna Help Send Some Fellow Designers to FOWA?

Last year, I did my best to help send David Bracetty to FOWA. This year, I’ve been contacted again, and I’d like to spread the word to anyone who might be willing to help. A couple of our collegues in Tel Aviv, Israel are stating their case, and asking for help to get to this years FOWA (Future of Web Apps) event in Miami, FL. There are ways to help, even if you can’t donate, like spreading the word if you have a blog, for example. Anyway, I’ll be sponsoring these two guys, because I took one look at their website, and their work, and FOWA is where these 2 belong. Good Luck Guys! :)

Congrats to the 300 Hi-Res Texture Winners!

Congrats to Alex, Jesse, and Melody. They were the lucky 3 who won 300 Hi Resolution textures from Colorburned. But remember, even if you didn’t win, you can get all 6 texture packs for $25 by using the discount code “BITTBOXFRIEND.” (That’s roughly $0.08 per texture) I’d also like to thank Grant at Colorburned for making the contest possible. Thanks for everyone’s participation :)

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! :)
