I profiled Blackout in my 10 Free & Amazing Display Fonts article, and decided to use it for this week’s Free Friday Design Wallpaper. Why? Because I’m predictable like that. Anyway, hope you enjoy this week’s version – the thought process was Black = dark, and Blackout = a city without power. Dig it!

Zapfino. Weird name, classy font. It sounds like a 70′s era Batman-punch sound effect. You know – he goes up to the bad guy, and ZAPFINO! knocks him out cold.
Speaking of cold, I think I’m coming down with one, so that would explain why I make no sense. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this installment of the Free Friday Design Wallpaper. If you have any suggestions for future versions, drop me a line – in the meantime, share and subscribe to the RSS feed!

I was recently hired by two local Edmonton singer/songwriters – Daniel Moir and Stephanie Bosch – to design a tour kickoff poster for them. I enjoy their music, and had shot photos for Daniel before, so it was great to be able to work on one of my favorite items to design – the gig poster – for a couple of great Edmonton musicians. Edmonton has a great music scene, and I’m always happy to be able to contribute my skills to it!
Here’s the poster I made, and how I made it. Follow along to create your own vintage gig poster!

…Extra Bold, that is.
I like Rockwell. It’s a classy typeface at its heart, but the Rockwell family can be used in a variety of ways; for instance, in this aggressive, in-your-face wallpaper. Enjoy, share, and subscribe to the RSS feed!
