After numerous delays crossing the border, we finally made it to the Darwin Martin house tour in Buffalo. I’ve always been interested in architecture so the tour was a great chance to learn more about Frank Lloyd Wright’s attention to detail, his style of architecture as well as indoor decor. It was a blistering 43 degrees, and finally rained once the tour was over (breaking the humidity), but worth the trip for sure!
Overall our tour was very informative, and I would recommend it to anyone!
While watching the slideshow at my friend’s wedding, I realized that there are lots of photos we never saw over the years. We always intended to send each other the photos, but it’s easy to forget, and just never ended up happening.
While Lisa and Mike were away on their honeymoon, I collected photos our friends took from the wedding and created a gallery that matched the design theme Lisa created for her wedding.
FITC noticed that there is a huge discrepancy between the number of males and the number of females that attend their conference each year. As a way of encouraging females to attend the conference, they had a contest for the top 50 submissions of video or animation. The rules were simple, tell them why you want to attend and you get bonus points for using Flash to make it.
I had the privilege of going to FITC a couple of years ago and loved how inspiring it was to hear all the new technology that was coming up and seeing the incredible diversity in applications for Flash and other related programmes.
So, without further ado, here is my submission that was chosen to receive a free ticket! Yipee!

Freelance Switch has really been my “go to” site lately for articles and questions and even just for reading comments from other designers. It’s amazing how comments can sometimes have the same amount of information as the article itself!
