Nik Ainley is probably one of the best illustrator in the world. I’m pretty sure that all of you know this guy… Guy, who has been working for brands like Adobe, Nike, British Airways, Audi, Smirnoff, Starbucks and many more. So even if you know his works I think there’s no reason to not see them again… Artwork called ‘Origins’ totally blow my mind!

New version of WordPress is here! 3.1 brings lots of new stuff:

• Now you can easly link to already created posts & pages. No more need for search&copy&paste URLs. That’s huge and helpful improvement
• Admin bar visible on front-end… I’m not sure how it’s going to look like on buddypress pages, where’s there’s already one bar
• Postformats – that’s huge! Already love it!
• Archive Pages for Custom Posts Type – that’s something I was dreaming about… Thanks, WordPress!
• …and more!

Now take a deeper look at the changes in latest version, then start upgrading your blogs.

http://easyframework.com/ – this is really interesting tool for front-end developers. I’ve just played with. It’s actually real framework, not something like those pseudo css grid frameworks and stuff like that . For sure it’s something worth attention because it saves your time.

Some of the built-in js functions:

• tooltips
• overlays – not only for images but also html elements, external links, videos etc.
• dropdown navigation
• forms – validating & labels as placeholders
• …and more!
