Dribbble invite winners
Phew. Crazy week, and thanks to all those who entered and took the time to create your @dribbble related masterpieces. If your reading this and have no idea what I’m on about, best check this post which explains everything. Done that? Grand. So… The winners!
Again, huge thank you’s to all of you, from the ridiculous, to the hilarious to the downright I have absolutely no idea what the hell you were on about. If you want to look at all the entries I received I’ve made a Flickr album, which you can look at here

Dribbble in your hands
Hello internet chums. So long story short – I haz @dribbble invites. Three of them to be exact. If you haven’t managed to get your mits on one yet – why not? It seems the latest internet trend is to start some ridiculously long winded way of getting those without invites to bow down to those who have. This is no exception.
Well sort of. Is this a competition? Yes! Does it rely on your design skills? Hell to the no! I’ve blown past invites looking for talent, and look where thats got me 90% are yet to @dribbble more than 10 images. The point of this competition? Well if I can’t draft in the best designers for my ‘team’ I’m sure as hell making sure I get the funnys in! The one thing @dribbble is missing (if anything) is a bit of gorilla humour. Adding some funny where you wouldn’t expect it. So… If you think you’re a funny little monkey – you better read on…

Launching the unlaunchable
Its taken *roughly* around 2 years, 24 months, 720 days, 17,280 hours, 1,036,800 minutes and 62,208,000 seconds in the making – as well as the last 10 extra minutes to work that post padding arithmetic out – but I finally have my site alive and breathing once again. I wish I could say that every minute of every day, (prior to now), has been filled with amazing things that have stopped me completing this most urgent of projects, but the sombre truth I’m afraid is, I haven’t.
As anyone who i’ve worked with will testament to, I tend to fuss over the tiniest of details. This, coupled with a sharp loathing I have for everything i’ve been creating for more than a week (always because i’ve come up with a better solution to the one i originally devised), were definitely contributing factors, but I don’t believe in all honesty I could say these were defining reasons why this site has taken me so long.
