WordPress functions help sheet

I’m a fan of WordPress.

I started using it a couple years ago and from then on I’ve applied it to almost every website I’ve developed. Its capacities are just huge, plus it has an enormous community willing to help you out whenever you get stuck.

Today via Design:Float I came across this nifty help guide that the guys from DBS Interactive just released for free.

A list eith several functions you’ll use oftenly when it comes to create or edit your templates on WordPress.

I’m sure it’ll come in handy to more than one out there.

60 Unite for Children in my hands

It’s been a while ago since I told you about 60 Unite for Children, a project by I told you about 60 Unite for Children, a project by UNICEF dwhere 60 designers and artists from around the world showcase graphics and thoughts related to children.

After a lot a lot of thinking, and when I realized that now shipping costs are free, I decided to buy it.

And yesterday, after a week, the book got to my hands

A kickass purchase. The 180 pages book contains a huge amount of top notch works plus some beautiful thoughts.

The KDU: featured members interviews

KDU Interviews

Down at the Keystone Design Union headquarters everyone is always busy with the pile of work that keeps on coming in, however, good ol’ coleague David Harris (A.K.A. SON) has been taking the time to interview a few of our family’s featured members.

So far he’s gotten his chat on with Neil Duerden, Nelson Balaban and more recently Pawel Nolbert.

Pretty cool interviews to get to know and see what different members from around the globe are up to.

Stay sharp for interviews to come down at the KDU global news site.

Desktopography 2008

4th release of the always breath-taking Desktopography has just dropped in.

Brand new creations by amazing artists from all over the world directly to your desktop.

The work above is by far one of my favorites and comes from the hands of insanely talented mr. David Fuhrer.

Diego Quintana x KDU x Slick Corea

Phil Chang (A.K.A. Slick Corea) is an excelent designer, music producer, apart from being a KDU creative consultant.

A while ago he asked some people to collaborate with his senior thesis project: A full length rap album alongside a graphics book with images related to each one of the songs.

Being a rap and design fan, I couldn’t let this chance slide.

Now Phil just released the album under the title of Children of Idiom along with the book, and they’re both kickass.

Inside the album you’ll find excelent excelent tracks (the beats are insane) alongside top-notch musicians; and in the book you’ll find the incredible works of people like Emeric Trahand, Adhemas Batista, Josh Vanover, Radim Malinic just to name a few.

Also, of course, there’s my modest collaboration to the project (second image above).

An absolute honor to be in such a fun project with exceptional artists, plus working with Phil was a joy by itself. Cool cat indeed.

Thanks a bunch to mr. Chang for making me a part of this kickass project, and much success on works to come.

Of course the invite is open for everyone to download the album, a the book, and the sweet little Extras pack on the website.

Graphic Design: 25 Interviews

Via Design Float I found out that the always interesting Noupe recently made a list of 25 interviews with graphic designers from around the world.

YayMonday

Today, with great surprise, I found out I just appeared on issue 21 of the great website YayMonday.

The thing about this site is that each monday, 9 new creatives from around the world are displayed.

Quite an honor to be there, plus, they also featured my man Veggie, so it’s a double-pointer for the chilean folks.

Also, big up to Ricardo Villavicencio who was featured on issue 19.

The list overall is very well made and several videos are inspiring to say the least for their innovation and execution level.
