View: Will Murai
After watching Will Murai raise to the level that his work naturally taken him, we found it interesting how his earlier sexy work - shown in the fine examples above -has been toned down. Not knocking what he does to get paid, but you can't keep all that pent up creative frustration to yourself. When your ready to release get at us!

View: The Ultimate Members
Unable to pimp of the fine members of the Too Sexy Radio team to our single ladies a few weekends back, we went in search of the next best thing and came across a team of 6 that would get the job done without us ending up in jail. A team who need no introductions to there skills after you have read each of there bios. The Ultimate Members by Jimmyjane and Kabaret's Prophecy.
The six colorful characters were created by acclaimed artist Jamie Hewlett. Each offers a unique personality and is accompanied by a titillating backstory. So we thought we would give you the black member of the team, Major Maja Flink...
Major Maja Flink
Major Maja "Mother Load" Flink's bomb bay doors are lubed up and primed. One flick of her switch is all that it will take to send her ballistic. She's a cute assed cripple with a cause, after a near death vodka induced mile high pile up over Krakow left her crutch bound and callipered up to her hot little cold war crotch.
If this tail gunning bird of prey has you in her MIG's sights you better believe you're gonna have to go vertical and pull massive inverted negative G before you get her off. Lock, load, stay on target, get your shit straight and keep it tidy because Kabaret's got incoming and nobody's gonna be cleaning up after you Mister. Not Major Flink or any other sonic-boom-boom-baby in Prophecy Squadron either! So get airborne, get in under the radar and let loose the heat seekers on their ass. Over and out.

Event: Murs 3:16 w/ Guerilla Union | Paid Dues Festival
Now we are not saying that we don't appreciate our American artists of choice when they find themselfs to the UK, but are having difficulty dealing with the extortionate price tag compared to what our state side cousins pay. The above is a prime example. $54... And thats it!
$54! And that includes parking and donating money to charity. Now unless you happen to be in San Bernardino in April, then there is the cost of the flight to add on top of that. So who does the responsibility with on this side of the river; the artist, promoter or us for accepting and paying money to see the artist we love.

Its like waiting for Arsenals sexy football to produce a trophy... #justsaying

"Inspiration | I get ideas when im cycling and swinning. I have a large pile of drawings in the corner of my studio with possible new characters. Freinds inspire me, as do people on the street, pictures on the internet, freaks contortionists, fashion, fat bodies, different races, sexy bodies, animals, androgyny and the east. I dont understand those people who get inspired by drugs or alcohol; as soon as I have either I stop caring about my work entirely."

View: Rankin x Oxfam | Congo
Would we donate more money to charity if the focus was on the smiles rather than the cries, more than likely. So when we came across one of RANKIN's projects with Oxfam found it somewhat refreshing spin on a very dated concept.

News: Secret Wars | Euro League
After 3 and a half years of single battle series locally in over 20 countries, we have decided to try something different and potentially more exciting for 2010... Introducing the Secret Wars EURO LEAGUE!
"When we started Secret Wars 3 years ago, it was influenced heavily by various things from the Marvel comic, to Warriors and Fight Club. After experiencing the team battles around the World and seeing the benefits of this compared to the singles battles, we decided on trying it as a complete 6-8 month series!"
"I have noticed the crowds are more vocal and patriotic towards team battles - there seems to be more at stake and I love watching the artists free-styling alongside each other.... You never know what will come out the other end!" Terry Guy (Founder of Monorex and Secret Wars)
The rules are the same but the structure of the competition and dynamics of the battle are slightly different - check the Secret Wars Euro League site for full/entry details.

News: How iPad Affects the Way we Design Websites?
The iPad has received mixed reviews. While the geeks (people like you and me) have looked at it with disdain for being “just” what we expected, the media publishing industry (read print media) has seen it as the salvation they had been waiting for. Whether the iPad is able to change the world or not, is not the issue of this article. But the fact of the matter is that it is here and sooner or later we need to learn to design the web keeping it in our minds. So what are the things we need to consider?
Fluid Width Design
The iPad has no RIGHT way of viewing websites. That means you can view it either in landscape or in the portrait mode. But for the designer that means two completely different layouts for which to design. It is for this specific reason that the iPad highlights the need for smart fluid width design. Using a smart combination of CSS and Javascript the User Experience can be made to improve drastically.
It is time for designers to get their skills together for designing for the iPad is going to be a roller coaster. While Fluid layouts are the best bet, but there are many instances where we just cannot use them. In such cases, we need to look beyond them to the basic styling.
A prominent option would be to use multiple CSS styles for different configurations and devices. Another is going for an adaptive content that changes according to the screen resolution.
There is NO Fold: Vertical or Horizontal
The iPad establishes one thing for certain. The website need not look the same on every platform. We have gone on to include Style Sheets for iPhone to include mobile devices, now we need to include them for iPad to keep in view the No Fold Policy.
In Portrait mode a very good portion of the website can be seen at one go. At the same time in the landscape mode the touch interface makes it very natural to browse sites that display content horizontally.
Links and Hover Effects
Primary method of user interaction with the iPad is and will be the fingers. The users will interact with our websites using fingers. So all those brilliant hover effects that were favorable for pointer-based devices, will be a hurdle in user experience on the iPad.
Also the links can no longer be concealed in a text and left for the user to dexterously click upon it. We might want to resize the links so that the user experience does not suffer.
Flash & HTML5
While the world has been divided over Apple’s stand on doing away with Flash, we need to understand that the step in the direction has already been taken. With Google openly adopting HTML5 for Youtube, it is only a beginning of the things to come with HTML5.
As designers we need to understand this paradigm shift and devote our efforts in not only learning about HTML5 but at the same time doing away with Flash. I understand that is a bold statement to make. But answer this:
“Would you rather have a Blue Lego?”
Conclusion...
While a lot of hidden points can be further raised 9 (Issues like typography, and webkit) I think the article serves as a good and sufficient point for the discussion to begin. I would love to hear your views on how exactly Apple’s iPad changes the way we design websites.
