On a personal note, I would like to present to you my latest project, which goes live today: minimalist-approa.ch!. This new site is dedicated to serve as an inspiration source, when it comes to minimal design. The topics covered will include web design, graphic design, architecture, furniture and packaging. If you are interested in one of the above, then please have a look and I am sure, you’ll find some interesting content.
A few of you may already have noticed that since last friday, a new page has been added to the top navigation. This means that from now on, you are able to submit your own textures and upload them directly to my server. If you would like to gain some exposure for your photos, this is the time to get started!
After 9 months it was about time to give this website a new look and after lots of hard work, I finally went live with the re-design. The most remarkable changes are:
In the following days I will add more features to the site, like a form, where you guys can upload your own textures. Next to that, I will install a gallery view so that it is possible to browse visually through the texture categories.
I would love to get some feedback from your side about the re-design and it would be great, if you could inform me about bugs or minor glitches, in case you encounter any. If you are normally reading my blog from inside your feedreader, you might want to visit the site directly in order to get an impression of the new look. So have a look for yourself and let me know in the comments, if you like the fresh design!
Grant over at colorburned.com is closing down his online shop and has a huge sale of hi-res textures and vector patterns. For a mere $ 6, you can purchase 352 textures and 10 vector pattern swatches, so this is really a steal. Be quick though, because the sale only lasts until next monday (2nd febuary). Here is what he has to say about it:
Hi folks,
last weekend, I had to move the feed address of highresolutiontextures.com to a new location, because all feedburner accounts will be merged with Google accounts within the next 2 weeks. In order to make sure that you receive all future updates, please unsubscribe manually (from within your favorite RSS reader) and then come back to this website and re-subscribe using the following link or the big RSS button in the sidebar:
http://feeds2.feedburner.com/Highresolutiontextures
Google will still re-direct to the old feed address, but I am not sure for how long they will keep doing that, so I strongly advise you to re-subscribe.
I would like to thank you all for being subscribed and taking so much interest in my content!
Hi folks,
the year is coming to an end, so I would like to take the opportunity and look back on what has been a very successful 7 months for highresolutiontextures.com. Since going live in May, the site saw a steady increase in visitors and RSS subscribers. Already in June, the first stone texture pack was being featured on Smashing magazine, which of course is a great start for a young blog. Lots of features on various CSS galleries (see the list in the footer section) and other blogs followed and as a result, the search engine rankings for relevant keywords improved a lot.
