CDS on The Best Designs
We’ve had some of our work featured on The Best Designs in the past, but our own website was always passed up. We’re happy to say that our new design made the cut today! Please have a look at all of the amazing sites on The Best Designs… there are some simply phenomenal websites out there. All designers have that one coveted award or recognition they always strive for, and this site is mine. It’s been in existence for quite some time, and I’ve been following it for years.

New Site Design
Hello fellow bloggers and design freaks, you’ve probably noticed the new site design this week. We received quite a bit of kudos for the last design, mainly for its use of bold colors and giant header. We wanted to keep that appeal with this new design, but add a bit more “organic” feel to it. I’m a big fan of the watercolor look and wanted to do something like that for a long time. It’s always risky to change something that has been received so well, but after a year or so we get the itch for something new. Hope you like it!

The CDS Shop is Live!
We recently started a new CafePress store with some CDS merchandise, and other non-branded stuff. The goal is to raise money for charitable oranizations, including Unicef, ONE, Fight Global Warming, and the WWF. We started with two prototype tote bags branded with our signature floral embellish and contact information, one for myself, and a one as a gift for my Mom. Surprisingly, everytime I use it at the market I get inquiries about where I got it, and the same with my Mom. We’ve had so many requests for the bag we decided to launch the shop now, before it’s finished. So, please note that available products are limited right now, and that we plan to grow the store with dozens more products and designs in the near future. And, if you have any product or design requests, please send us a note and we’ll do our best to provide it.

3D Text
In my humble opinion, one of the best 3d text creation applications is XARA 3d6, http://www.xara.com/us/. 3d6 basically eliminates timely rendering, and doesn’t take up nearly as much comp resources that comprehensive 3d apps do. This is not a full 3d suite, but it does come with dozens of shapes, objects, and 3d methods. Did I mention how easy it is to work with. When used in conjunction with photoshop, illustrator, etc., the possibilities are endless. Here’s a sample of one of our promotional postcards, front and back. This was created using XARA 3d6 for the CDS text, illustrator for for the illustrations, and photoshop for the effects.
