It is a name I came up for while on the way home from London for my studio I am planning on setting up when I’m older :)

This post is all about my setup and what I’m designing on. I have been meaning to write this for a while and it gives a break to all those who need it from the usual tech demos that have plagued this blog for a while :). Don’t worry, they will still be here.

Hearing how one of the legends of Flash came to be and what the driving force behind him is.

What Eric says in this video is exactly what I stand for. Eric was my main inspiration in web design and what I enjoy most, creating. If it wasn’t for this guy I wouldn’t be where I am now.

Harry.
