How will you spend your Holidays ?

Traditional Christmas dinner with my close family, in Bangor, Northern Ireland. Then it’s getting ready to move home/office to Edinburgh, Scotland (leaving in January).

Greetings to readers :

I hope that you, Alex, and all the CrazyLeaf readers have a fantastic holiday season, and an even better 2010.

How will you spend your Holidays ?

This particular holiday will be uneventful for me. I’ll be using it to catch up with tasks that I’ve neglected, as well as getting prepared for the next year. On Christmas, I’ll be video-conferencing my mom, dad, and brother in the morning, and then I’ll be having a nice and peaceful dinner with friends.

Greetings to readers :

I’d like to wish all Six Revisions readers a happy holiday and a happy New Year!

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I will be spending Christmas at my home. My parents, my wife’s parents and her brothers are coming to our house. Last year we ate and played games most of the day, so I’m thinking this year will be more of the same. I have no plans for new years aside from watching some football (American football that is).

Greetings to readers :

I hope everyone has a great time with friends and family during the holidays. Try to take plenty of time away from work and enjoy all of the things that you have been blessed with in your life.

How will you spend your Holidays ?

This Christmas we’re hosting a large family gathering at our house. The conservatory is being converted into a dining room with a 3 metre long table, nicely decorated with all kinds of Christmassy objects and pretty fairy lights surrounding the room. We have 11 people coming over including Laura’s parents, my parents, Laura’s brother, my two sisters and both our Grandparents. Following this is an evening of games for the youngsters and falling to sleep on the sofa for the oldies.

New Year wise, we don’t have any plans as yet. It’s tradition for my Auntie to have a gathering, so if things are going ahead this year, that’s likely to be our destination for New Year partying!

Greetings to readers :

Best Christmas wishes to all CrazyLeaf readers, and a great new year filled with exciting design projects!

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I was lucky enough to spend the first half of December soaking up the sun in Jamaica with my beautiful girlfriend. For the second half, I will be visiting family for in Tampa, Florida and relaxing with close friends. Hopefully not too much of my time will be spent on work or thinking about websites.

Greetings to readers :

I hope everyone has a great, safe, and fun filled Holiday season spent with those you love most!

Umut Muhaddisoglu | Web Resources Depot

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I’m trying to launch a web-design-related project that I had in mind for a while. Some days of the holidays will include coding for sure. For the rest, it seems to be a snowboarding vacation very close to where I live or a dream-plan which is going kiteboarding in a warmer country (the plain tickets are currently too high and trying to catch an opportunity). All with my wife and few friends (except coding J).

Greetings to readers :

Wishing all CrazyLeaf Design Blog readers happiness (and, hopefully, the rest follows).

Alen Grakalic | Css Globe

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I will spend it with my family. Holidays are usually far less busy than usual so it’s a perfect opportunity to be with people you love. We’ll just spend a lot of time at home with friends coming over.

Greetings to readers :

May all your wishes come true not by waiting for something nice to happen but by going out there and make it happen!

Johnson Koh | 10Steps.SG

How will you spend your Holidays ?

Christmas has become more meaningful now as it is also my wedding anniversary. I will probably reserve a nice place for a Christmas dinner by the riverside.

Another activity that I am looking forward to, is to photo shoot the fireworks on New Year’s eve. Other than these, see you guys on Facebook!

Greetings to readers :

Merry Christmas to Alex and everyone! Greetz from 10Steps.SG!

James Qu | PSD Vault

How will you spend your Holidays ?

Don’t really have a plan right now, but I definitely will be spending some time on PSD Vault. Otherwise just have a good rest and get ready for a busy 2010.

Greetings to readers :

Hello everyone, I’m James and I run PSD Vault, which is a personal blog for everything Photoshop – tutorial, resources, freebies and inspirations!

Andrew Houle | MyInkBlog

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I will be back in my home town spending quality time with friends and family. I’m really looking forward to the nice break I hope to come back reenergized with a positive outlook and plenty of post ideas.

Tom Ross | PSDFan

How will you spend your Holidays ?

Rather depressingly I have a very important dissertation due after the Christmas holidays, and so need to be working on that over the entire break. However, I’ll also be spending time with my family and girlfriend, and with any luck drinking far too much. The good news is that despite being preoccupied with this dissertation I’m feeling incredibly inspired lately, and so can’t wait to pour my efforts into PSDFAN in the new year!

Greetings to readers :

I hope that all CrazyLeaf readers have a fantastic holiday, and remember to take time to relax with your loved ones.

Naveed Javaid | SmashingApps

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I use to spend my holidays specially with my family. Wherever I am, I back home and go for shopping and dinner. My Coolest hobby is to play with my little daughter. Oh yes! I always try to keep my blog updated even in holidays.

Greetings to readers :

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.

Chad Engle | Fuel Your Creativity

How will you spend your Holidays ?

I will be traveling & participating in four different X-Mas’s. My longtime GF and myself have split families so I will be traveling all over the state. After X-Mas I will be enjoying a long break all the way through new years. Which will probably consist of eating, drinking & working on personal projects.

Greetings to readers :

Best wishes to you and your family on what ever holiday you participate in. Happy Chrismahanakwanzika to you!

Dainis Steinbergs | Psdeluxe

How will you spend your Holidays ?

This Christmas holidays I will spend with my family: with wife, daughter and parents. I always believed that the Christmas holidays are for families to spend a lot of time together and that’s what we will do. We will spend Christmas holidays in Latvian and will enjoy all winter amenities and will wait for Santa.

Greetings to readers :

May your world be filled with warmth and good cheer this Holy season, and throughout the year! Wish your Christmas be filled with peace and love. Merry Christmas to all CrazyLeaf Design Blog readers, to designers, bloggers, webmasters and to yours families.

At the end we would like to thank all our readers, advertisers and supporters and wish them a world of health, happiness and Happy Holidays !

Photofonts allow users to make fonts with real calligraphic brush strokes, photos of everyday objects, multi-color hand lettering, scanned historical documents, felt pen doodles or any other set of bitmaps.

These advantages can be used by :

Photographers and Graphic Designers

• You can think of a photofont as a collection of bitmaps that can be inserted into your projects at the touch of a key. A series of plugins have been developed so you can use photofonts with the most popular publishing applications (QuarkXpress, through Photofont QX Illustrator, Photoshop, through Photofont Start, InDesign through Photofont ID). This makes it pretty easy to add color to your typography.

Web Designers and Developers

• … can use photofonts in standards-compliant, search engine friendly pages without converting the custom fonts used to “flat” graphics. In order to implement the photofonts into your projects you have to embed the font in the website, done through a conversion using Photofont Webready. The product of the conversion is a Flash®-based embedded web font, which is a combination of Flash® (.swf), JavaScript (.js) and CSS (.css). The glyph shapes are stored inside of an .swf file, while JavaScript and CSS is used to dynamically substitute normal HTML or XHTML text with the embedded web font in the user’s browser. If the browser does not support Flash® or JavaScript, or if those are disabled, the original HTML text is rendered unchanged.

• It sounds pretty complicated, but the results can be quite worthwhile. Look at the headline and subheads on this page. We made them all from Photofonts, but the headline (in the SmallStones font) was prepared in WebReady. If you click and drag across the letters in the headline you’ll see that they are selected just like regular text. You can copy and paste them and search engines will recognize them. If you try this on any of the subheads nothing happens – because we made them out of plain bitmaps.

Lettering Artists and Calligraphers

• …  can convert their lettering and calligraphy into fonts with photographic effects. This makes it a lot easier to use these kinds of fonts in digital documents.

Software Developers

• … can implement photofonts as resource files with the .phf extension. The plugins for Adobe Photoshop and InDesign can be automated for work flows that require personalization of outputs. And that nice keycap font just above would look pretty good in a user manual.

Photofonts are not very difficult to create. All you need is a paint program and a text editor. You just make the bitmaps you want to use for the characters and then you write an XML file to organize them. But if you don’t want to do the technical heavy lifting there’s also the possibility of creating your own photofonts or convert your existing artworks to photofonts with a special tool, BitFonter that does the XML stuff (among other things) for you.

Well, in Russia you can find a baker that can make you say that anytime. Her name is Zhanna, she’s from St. Petersburg, and she manages to make incredible cakes. What I’m really curios is what is the price for such a cake?
Maybe I’ll get a comment with a list of prices…

Anyway the artistic side of this baker really shocked me. I kept looking at her cake photos and just imagine how it would feel to cut the first piece from such a cake? From my point of you cannot name Zhanna as a baker but as a truthful artist.  What is the most interesting part of her work is that everything you will see is backed with 100% eatable ingredients. So no help from plastic parts of anything else. You can just eat everything from them until the last little piece.

Here below I have a few examples of her work. For more on that you can just visit the official place where this were all presented and you can see 50+ examples of tasty pictures( maybe not the one with the fishes but …)

Start playing….or eating…depends if you take a really good look at this cake or not

With this cake you can experience how is it to eat a microscope.

I would really like to see this in a bank an hidden camera the customers.. that would be a very funny video.

I keep this to the end as I think this is the only masterpiece that I think I won’t have the courage to eat, but still a masterpiece.
