Fortune Cookie Wisdom
Exceptionally great advice from a cookie.
Color Branding
So, I posted the teal photos yesterday because I had been considering altering my biz color palette. After spending a whole day tweaking and considering, I’m back to purple & grey. Oddly enough, almost the same website layout as my last version. I actually didn’t even realize exactly how full circle I had come until just now. I can personally attest to the fact that as a graphic designer, creating a personal brand is literally the hardest project you will ever take on. I’ve never had a client anywhere near as annoying as myself.
Studio Snapshots
So, I like seeing where other creatives, freelancers & independents work & make things. My studio is messy, but a here’s quick photo of things on my work table. And a close up.
Customer Photo Gallery
I’ve added a new section full of customer submitted photos. If you’re interested in seeing what other people are doing with their wall graphics and laptop decals, you can check out the new gallery which is currently located under the Interactive Section.
Rocket Wall Decals
If you’d like to submit your own photos, I’d love to add them! You can send them via email or if they are already somewhere online (flickr, photobucket account, etc) you can use the contact form and send the link!
Also, if you have photos already in the gallery and want them to be linked to you in some way (to your website, blog, twitter, etc), just let me know and I’ll add your info.

So, a quick look back at the different (and occassionally cringe worthy) forms michellechristina.com has taken on:
