Dirty Hard Drive is my second Icon set for Mac OSX. I have been working on this one on-and-off for a while now and yesterday I finally got round to finishing it. It was a bit of a learning process for me when it came round to packing it for general use but I got there and I’m very pleased with the final out come.

It seems that some how Muxtape has got itself into a spot of bother with the RIAA. The Muxtape site doesn’t go into any details as to what the “problem” is but for the time being the site is offline. This is very unfortunate as I always found Muxtape to be a great site for listening to and finding new music. I’ve bought a number of new records solely because I heard a track or two on Muxtape and I can bet I am not the only one who has done this. It’s a shame the RIAA doesn’t realise this but even then, I bet they would still be after royalties for Muxtape allowing us to stream tracks for free.

In this one-on-one filmed by Michael Kemper, Joshua Davis talks about his work, inspiration and his love for design. Although it’s not very long it is very inspiring to hear how Joshua feels about how one should approach design. It is definitely worth the watch.

There’s also a one-on-one with Milton Glaser (here) that is also worth checking out.

No no, that isn’t a play on “bend me over and spank me”… Ok ok, I lie, maybe it is.

Lately I have been working on a couple of projects of various kinds. One being an OSX Hard Drive Icon set, some client work and a wordpress theme called Fold. So yes I have been somewhat busy and no I haven’t disappeared off the face of the internet.

Anyway, Fold is my first Wordpress theme that I will be releasing for public use. Before now I had only ever made themes for my own personal use but now I figure it is time to make something that anyone can use. It has been a big learning process, trying to figure out what the public may or may not need within a theme and trying not to keep it overly cluttered with feature’s some people may not need or want. As this is my first theme, I am taking my time with it to get it as perfect as possible for release, so at the moment I don’t have much of an idea when this will be ready. I have set myself the target of getting it available for the start of next week but if I need to go over a day or two I will do so.

In the meantime here is a preview of the theme in it’s current state, it’s not complete but it does give you an idea on it’s style.
