The Wildlife Concervation Society

Hello again,

Just an little preview of a project that I worked on from an awesome client, the WCS (The Wildlife Conservation Society).

The task was to remake their Staff Training Handbook into something more appealing to the eye. The final result ended up being 3 big posters with a lot of beautiful illustrations to be display in all WCS’s Parks (The Bronx Zoo, Central Park Zoo, The New York Aquarium, etc). Here are some close-up views…

** Project done with the collaboration of Gabriel Gonzales and Tak Yee under the supervision of Susan Spivack from KCC

Enter Amaya Media!

Rene — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 05:39:17 +0000

Hello,
Today I would like to take this opportunity to announce a major change in the site. As you may all know this site its been know as ScyberSpace Designs for a while but I wanted something new and fresh. (no! I’m not changing the name a lot, this is the first and last time!).

Enter Amaya Media!

Why Amaya? Well I was discussing with several of my friends and colleagues about a proper name that was well suited for me personally, and ScyberSpace was something a little too vague. And so I came up with Amaya Media. Amaya is one of my last names so what better name for the site than my last name. Also I got some feedback that although the name ScyberSpace was a unique name a lot of people were confusing it with “Cyberspace” and so everything somebody asked me for my site i had to explain that there was an “S” before the “C” in ScyberSpace and it got a bit frustrating at times.

With this new name I plan to re-brand everything that I’ve accomplished under ScyberSpace and go beyond my limits. And although I have a new domain http://amayamedia.com you can still access the site with the old http://scyberspace.com. That link will still be available for quite some time. I hope everyone enjoys this new name as well as I do, until next time.

Portfolio Up

Rene — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 22:19:08 +0000

Hello everybody,

As you can all see I’ve been doing a makeover to the site. Latest update is the portfolio page is now up. In this portfolio page I’ve included some of my works. I still need to fill it up more with more work as well as making more updates to the site. Also I noticed that the SGraw nuke theme became very popular in the nuke community in clan sites and I’m very happy for that. Due to the success of this theme there is a very high posibility that I make v2 for phpnuke. I also noticed that is being sold at www.tinyportalmedia.com for the system they use. Please dont buy it! this theme was intended to be free and not for any kind of sale no matter the system its being converted.

Until next time.

New Look v4

Rene — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 14:52:22 +0000

Hello;
ScyberSpace Designs has a new look! Yes, this is the new look for ScyberSpace v4. As I mentioned in my previous post ScyberSpace is back and is here to stay. I will be bringing new features to the site and more downloads. All previous downloads are available in the download page. I dont think I’ll be making more PhpNuke themes because of the time it takes to built them but who knows maybe I make some more or if you want a custom one.

The new theme is still in its building process because of all of the features I’m adding to the site. If you find any bug please report it in the comments for this post.

Stay tune for more updates.

I’m Back!!!!

I’ll continue to bring high quality themes and soon some Wordpress themes also. I’ll be having my portfolio up real soon with all my work and some recent work that I’ve done. If you have any question, comment, suggestion don’t hesitate to contact me in the contact page or in the Forums.
