  • Take action for change…with your mobile carrier

    This is guest post by Chris Reynolds, one half of the design team at Arcane Palette Creative Design. If you’d like to guest post on 10 Times One, click here. About a week ago, I got an interesting piece of snail mail.  It came from CREDO Mobile — a name that didn’t ring any bells… (read…

  • thinking about redesign…again…

    So now that Museum Themes is up, WordPress 3.0 is out, and web fonts have made huge strides in browser-integration, I’m thinking about redesigning jazzsequence.com.  Again. Okay, yes, I am fully frakking aware that I redesign my site more frequently than a hooker gets checked for STDs, and even the Browncoat theme lasted longer than the current…

  • Free Texture Pack: Miscellaneous Textures 2

    This texture pack is a hodge-podge of random objects and textures that have the common theme that they were all taken from an old house.  Screens, mesh, old fabric, vintage wallpapers and retro-tastic heating vents to add to your collection.  All images were taken at 2272×1704, large enough to do pretty much whatever you want.…

  • amnesty international: death to the death penalty

    This new Amnesty International ad is gorgeous and inspired.  Gets the message across while being appropriately eerie and unsettling.  Which, given the subject matter, it should be. The folks who did this ad also did this crazy dog short (also awesome): “birds” (pleix) from pleix on Vimeo.

  • oil spill…but not in the gulf of mexico

    Look familiar? While this looks like it might be a bird that got it easy in the gulf oil spill, or maybe just got lucky (at least compared to these poor animals), this duck, in fact, lives no where near Louisiana.  Instead, it was living right where I live. You know things are bad when you can…
