| Mazda Dealers and Designers Split on Future of MX-5 Styling | | 2008-06-05 08:12:00 | | Autocar is reporting in the May 21 issue of its print magazine that Mazda dealers are pretty pleased with the looks of the current generation Mazda MX-5 convertible and don’t want the boat rocked too badly when the car gets a facelift next year.Word is that the new-look Mazda MX-5 won’t carry any of the design cues from the recent Nargare concepts, despite the fact that the next generation of Mazda vehicles will. Mazda is characterizing their dealer network as “very happy” with the profitable MX-5 as presently constituted.Meanwhile the Mazda design team would like to push the envelope a bit more, saying that the MX-5 is “never radical enough” for them. The all-new MX-5 isn’t due out until 2012 so perhaps they’ll have time to make their case. | | By: Autoshows | | |

| Ford designers create color in virtual world | | 2008-05-17 07:19:00 | | Dearborn, Mich. - The same virtual process that enables Ford designers to create new vehicles without the use of clay is helping designers develop colors without opening a single can of paint. It’s all part of Ford’s continued advancements in virtual design, which are helping the company bring more products to market faster.“There is no room in our competitive industry for waste,” said Peter Horbury, Ford’s executive director, Design for The Americas. “We can’t afford to do business the old way. Digital technology reduces development time from months to minutes and gives customers the relevant products they want today – today.”Ford Chief Designer Jeff Nowak is spearheading a team of software developers, paint suppliers and designers to develop unique solutions for mapping colors in the virtual world, pouring the traditional paint verification process down the drain.Until now, designers couldn’t create vehicles in the virtual world with their representative paint | | By: Auto Blog India by Infibeam | | |

| St. Patrick’s Day Tips and Tricks for Graphic Designers | | 2008-03-17 14:55:00 | | As a graphic designer, it is your job to make your clients’ marketing materials truly stand out and set them apart from their competition. They have to look great to maximize their return on investment; which in turn will generate repeat business for you. If you have the basic thematic association design concepts down pat, it’s time to take your clients’ St. Patrick’s Day promotions to the next level with striking creativity that looks professional and elegant. Here are a few St. Patrick’s Day tips and tricks for graphic designers. Stray from the Norm Many designers stick to green and orange for their clients’ St. Patrick’s Day promotions, but you don’t have to. In fact, straying from the normal color selections help your designs become instant attention-grabbers. One example would be to make a shamrock in your clients’ company colors. Because designers often cover St. Patty’s Day promos in green backgrounds, you can also accentuate your designs by using | | By: Print This! | | |

| How Fashion Designers Manipulate and Give You A False Identity | | 2008-03-10 04:11:00 | | What you have to remember about the latest in trendy fashion gear is: that all new designs shipped over in bulk from the country of manufacture, is that, not once were you ever given any consideration i.e. in the designer's thoughts when their creations were being pieced together. This therefore tells you - not to expect to stand out in a crowd because, everyone else will be wearing the exact same garments as you, and it is because of this - that the latest fashion in trendy gear gives off a false identity for the wearer. How can a designer you have never met dress a stranger without an introduction and get it right. For example: Will the pleasantly plump Bessie Bunter look alike, look as voluptuous in an outfit designed for the more petite curved figure like that of Lara Croft. So there you have it - the real reason behind the meaning of the word Fashion freaks.

I have always been an environmentalist and with three children, I am naturally concerned about their future. Relating to fashion, I think it really started in 1990 when I commissioned some research on the impact of the clothing and textiles business on the environment. I was horrified at what I found. The first issue was that there are 10 thousand deaths every year due to conventional cotton agriculture, mostly from pesticide poisoning. It was a real shock, because we designers thought we weren?t doing any actual damage using natural crops when actually we were having this colossal impact.

Create an ambiance at your place of rest at home with lights (one night lamp should be sufficient), plenty of cushions around you on a posture friendly bed, sofa, settee or mattress & comfortable airing (air conditioning or natural air: take advantage of calm breeze) put on some soothing music like light jazz or a romantic ballad.Now that you have a cozy atmosphere, take a deserving 1 hour nap after a hard day's work. Ensure you had had freshened your self & you exude little or no perspiration. After an hour, wake up to feel more focused & do more work easier. I find it works for a good night’s sleep too although you may want to get a night lamp with an automatic off timer so there is no waste of electricity while you are asleep. | | By: movie special | | |

| Web Design Tips for Web Designers | | 2007-11-18 21:38:00 | | For those who work with web designing, they know a number of different aspects go into creating an effective website. While designing a website, one needs to create a design that is easy for visitors to use, is compatible with different systems, and is search engine friendly. Creating a user friendly website is crucial and should be common sense for those wanting to create a successful site. First off, you want to make the text easy to read and the navigation links easy to find. Another key tip to promote your site is to put your contact information on every page. Make it obvious what you want the user to do after reading a page. Also make it easy for the user to reach your homepage from any other page. Those are a couple of the easy tips one can do but creating a good website is more in depth than that. Keep in mind when you web design to make it cross platform compatible. The main factors you need to consider in platform compatibility are the user's browser, screen resolution, color depth, and plug ins. Browser compatibility is easy - just test your site in various browsers, and fix any incompatibilities. The same goes for screen resolution - just be sure that your site looks good and is easily navigated with any common screen resolution. Color depth is also relatively simple. Try and limit yourself to just using web safe colors. Plug-ins can be somewhat complicated. If at all possible, try to use media that is compatible with most versions of a plug in. For example, try not to use a flash movie that requires the latest version of a flash player. The best thing you can do to make your site friendly to search engines is to give it a good link structure. Be sure that each page on your site is linked to at least two other pages with a plain text link. Image links are OK, but not as good as optimized text links. Javascript and flash links are very bad for search engine usability. After all you want as many visitors as possible. Although web design can get extremely c | | By: All of Web Design | | |

| How To Identify Fake Web Designers -- And Choose A Real One | | 2007-11-11 04:13:00 | | Like going on a blind date, choosing the right web designer can be an adventure fraught with false hope. Unlike a big corporation, a small business generally has a tight budget--especially when it comes to advertising and promotion--to engage a big web design agency to serve their online marketing needs. With the understanding that a cheap-looking website is not the best way to represent your business--or that you do not have unlimited funds to throw at web designers on the off-chance that you'll get something that resembles what you want--there exist good small design studios and professional freelance web designers with reasonable rates, fortunately. Here are some tips on how to choose the right one to meet your small business needs. Identify the Fake Web Designers Check out their portfolio! Do they look professional?

| The 5 hats of graphic designers | | 2007-08-27 01:15:00 | | If novice can work their way around a photo manipulation or page layout program, why do designers still charge large figures for their services ?Today’s designer must wear many hats, and I’ll talk about some of them here.The problem solving hatDesigners are presented with a problem, and it’s their task to find a solution. The problem could be to set a business apart from its competition by using an effective logo design, or to increase product sales with a cleverly designed advertising campaign. Whatever the initial brief, there’s a clearly defined problem and the designer puts on their thinking hat.The teaching hatBy educating clients, customer-satisfaction is improved and the designer is more likely to be called upon in the future. What might a designer teach? File preparation is an important part of the print production process, and a lot of my time is spent educating clients about file types. You’d be surprised just how many of my clients don’t understand that a thumbnail image off a website can’t be used for a full-size A3 poster. This design guide for print provides a little more info.The graphic designer hatThis is actually just one function of a modern-day designer. Ask any self-employed designer just how much time they spend designing and you’ll probably be surprised at the answer. I can’t say for sure how long I spend actually designing, but I think it’s between 25% to 40%.The salesperson hatWhether it be attracting new clients or selling an idea, graphic designers need to have enough confidence in their own ability to persuade a client that they’re making the right decision. Every design pitch must be treated like a sale. When meeting people for the first time, I make sure to focus at least my first three questions on topics not related to business. It’s much easier to develop a relationship with a person than it is a business, so don’t be pushy.The manager hatAccounting is a vital aspect of my business operations, and I’ve not | | By: Cost effective website development | | |

| Copyright for web designers | | 2007-07-30 05:46:00 | | For the inexperienced, developing sites and software can be a legal minefield. This issue Brian Miller, solicitor and partner in the new media firm Davenport Lyons, explains how to keep control of your copyrightEvery lawyer’s favourite adage is ‘never assume’. It’s especially relevant for companies hoping to take part in the development of new sites. Each company may ‘assume’ that it will own the copyright of the final product, even though their contract makes no provision for it.In the creative world of web design, it’s not uncommon for a client to commission a developer to build a web site, only for the relationship to collapse. If there is no contract (or even where there is and the contract isn’t specific), the client often believes that they will own the copyright of the work.It has always been the case in common law (English case law) that, in the absence of prior agreement between the parties (it’s always best to get these things in writing), copyright remains in the hands of the author of the work, namely the developer or designer. This may come as a shock to many site owners, when they realise they don’t actually own the piece of software, or site design, for which they have often paid a substantial sum of money. The ClientThe precise nature of the rights that the client will acquire on purchasing a piece of software or a design will largely depend on the circumstances of the individual case. For instance, if it was made clear by the client that they would want to sell the software to third parties, although there was no express clause outlining this in any agreements, it’s more likely that the client will have not only a licence to use the software for the purposes for which it was commissioned, but also the right to licence it to third parties. In most cases, the law states that the client, in the absence of any specific agreement relating to copyright ownership, will generally have a licence for the software based on the following c | | By: Web design services | | |

| Simple Design Tips for Non-Designers | | 2007-05-29 03:24:00 | | Web design is an interestingly unique skill. Due to its infancy, it is a career in which many professionals have very little formal training. Designers may not have training in programming and programmers rarely have training in design.
