Carhenge

August 24th 2009 02:53
Carhenge, Nebraska


Located in southern England, Stonehenge is a circular arrangement of earthworks and massive stones thought to date from about 2000-3000 BC. The site's actual use or purpose is not known, although it was probably built for rituals and observing the sun and heavens.

Such is the fascination of the monolithic structure with modern day humans, artist Jim Reinders has re-invented Stonehenge with scrap vehicles. The structure lives in Alliance, Nebraska and it also attracts thousands of enchanted visitors each year.

belgian girl tattoo stars
Scarred from life: Kimberley Vlaminck shows her tattooed face. The 56 stars will cost G8,500 to remove

As reported around the word, this report from the Daily Mail tells of how tattooist Rouslan Toumaniantz says that 18 year-old Belgian girl Kimberley Vlaminck 'absolutely' agreed she wanted 56 stars tattooed on the left side of her face. However, Kimberly is suiing the tattooist cliaming that she wanted 3 stars only.

The procedure cost only G55, but laser surgery to remove the stars will be more like G8,500. Toumaniantz has thus far agreed to pay half the cost of removal, but Kimberley is suing him for the full cost plus damages as the surgery will leave permanent white marks on her face.

Kimberly says the mistake was made because she conversed with Toumaniantz in French and English, both languages of which he knows little. She fell asleep during the procedure, awaking to a nightmare of 53 stars too many.
However according to Toumaniantz, Kimberly knew exactly what was going on during the procedure, even looking in the mirror. The trouble only started when she got home and her boyfriend and father threw a fit.

What is Graphic Design?

May 27th 2009 11:51
Can you define design?

Let me try:
Design is to make a synthesis of needs and information and colours in order to create something that is greater than the sum of its parts?

Actually, I have no idea what design is, but here are a few opinions......



graphic design posters - knowing where to put the pixels


Design is capturing what is most elusive


Graphic design and communication


what comprises graphic design?


design is the sweet frosting on a cupcake

Creative Soaps

December 8th 2008 00:00
Soap is made by reacting fats with lye, where it is then poured into a mould. Man has been manufacturing soap from the Roman days, and since then we've refined the process into a fine art form. It can also be very creative, with the use of various colours and moulds the soap maker can create an endless number of shapes and figures. Check out some great examples below!
