Just taking a huge break from the blogosphere

I’m taking a huge break to focus on life and saving money for Creative Suite (Design Premium) from Adobe. I won’t be gone forever, but I won’t be in front of the computer for another 6 months. Here’s this: I’m avoiding free alternatives (such as GIMP and Paint.NET) as they don’t work out for me and I’m not really a fan of open source (or alternative)...

Top 15 Fonts

This is my first “top 10/15/20” posts. There are mainly free fonts, and only one pay font. If you didn’t know the abbreviations to the social networking links, here they are: TW means Twitter, FB means Facebook profile (or page), G+ means Google+. 1.

Warning to people who steal other peoples' artwork...

I’m telling you: it’s really bad using other people’s artwork or photographs, you know. That’s mean. And you could get in trouble. Really. It’s because they have to put watermarks on their artwork or photographs so people won’t use their stuff without asking them first. Using anything that doesn’t belong to you without the original...

Nintendo Wii and Desperate Housewives rides off...

The Nintendo Wii has been around for five years from its original launch date. The reason why they are discontinuing the Wii is they’re not saying is why. The console dropped 10% of its sales. Wii U will be released on the second half of 2012. On the end of March, I will discontinue playing (and purchasing) the single-player Wii games. No single-player Wii games will be purchased, including...

2012 Resolutions

This is the final post for 2011. This is where I kill off autism and disability. This is for 2012! End autism and disability. Tell your parents/siblings/etc. that you’re not autistic and disabled anymore. Also, community centers for the disabled are served as “enemy” buildings. And most importantly, do not trust your DDS case manager, and also, call your DDS case manager and...

One Life to Live may go off the air next year...

The 43-year-old soap opera has reached its final moments. The stars and creators of One Life to Live will move on to new ventures. The first episode aired on June 15, 1968, which it was before the internet, and my time. I was too young to watch that soap at that time (I was only about 4 or 5 at the time). I’m putting One Life to Live in the deadpool. If you read the article at Huffington...

say goodbye to laziness

I’ve already told a lot of you I’ve been away from the blogosphere until May. I don’t have much to write with, but, here’s the first interview. Welcome, “Commander”. “Commander”? Really? No, I’m not the “commander of the household” anymore after I lost the rights to give orders to everybody in the household. I’m not in the...

Exo Typeface Family by Natanael Gama →

What you should do while I’m gone is to back that project (it’s a nice font, but what this font family costs?) for that designer, if you want that font family in Google Web Fonts. If you want to know more about the font, check after the jump. Update 12/21/2011: It has been fully funded! Update 01/04/2012: Although this project by this guy has been fully funded, it isn’t...
