In this video I go over the best easy cap set-up available. It’s the cheapest, most simple and also offers the highest quality compared to other set-ups such as the ‘splitter’ method.

In order to use this set-up you will need some sort of available output (from TV, Amp or any other unit your console may pass through. ) If you do not meet these requirements other less preferred methods such as the splitter method are recommended.

What you will need.

- EasyCap
- Male to Male (connections) RCA/composite cables (red, white and yellow cable)
- And of course an available output ( as mentioned above)

The cable and EasyCap can be found quite cheap on online resellers such as Amazon or eBay.

This is an overview on the ideas behind creating a creative logo, in the coming weeks I will be making another tutorial on how to actually build a site logo looking at many aspects of other famous logos.

I recommend having a read of the smashing book 2 which is an amazing and in-depth read into the many different elements of design and development.

With portal 2 being gradually completed by the many that purchased the game, will we stop playing it? Once everyone completes the single player campaign, which tipped the scale towards the shorter side, as its length being arguably shorter than some would hope. With then the major shift of players tacitly the fantastic co-op, is there really a basis for re-playability? Once all the test champers are completed is it really that fun to re play them through and through?

With the lack of multiplayer that offers a unique experience all the time (unlike the linear co-op) will be see a major shift of players leaving portal 2?

With the announcement of new DLC already, I hope this is not the case, with introduction of new test chambers, leaderboards and new modes there should a new influx of user’s running back to portal. But I think until we see a level or map editor the major crowd of gamers will simply move on after the DLC.

What do you think?

This took an amazing 91 hours to render! due to all the tiny fragments, and after all that there is an issue/bug in the lighting and you should notice a flickering that is quite annoying, especially after the long wait. I’m also concerned that there was some timing issues between the music and editing, but overall it wasn’t a bad render, what do you think?

This was the poster design that was accepted (slight changes where made before printing)

Here is also another design that I submitted in as well.

With the commercial realise of CS5 packs (Design Premium pack) being sold online at adobe for US$1,899.00 (or at Adobe Australia: AU$2,172.00) with Photoshop Extended just along (separate sale) costing a whopping US$999 (or at Adobe Australia: AU$1,168.00) is it really worth it?

Some people can’t justify paying for bits and bytes and with these massive figures could we all? Should Adobe do something about these rising price tags and these continues upgrades and offer free upgrades to excising customers? Instead of alienating them with upgrade after upgrade costing an arm and a leg.

Tell us what you think and drop in a comment.
