Mon, Oct 5th, 2009 The Amazing Moustache Man

Cuckoo Design took part in 'Tacheback '09... a whole month of not shaving the top lip in aid of the Everyman charity... or just an excuse to grow a large, flowing, incredibly handsome moustache.

View my 'tache below, and please... enjoy.

Mon, Sep 14th, 2009 Flash AS3 / XML banner

You may or may not be interested to know that the homepage of this website now has a shiny new flash banner that uses ActionScript 3 and XML to create an animated slider. I made it, you see... that's why I'm telling you about it.

Thu, Aug 27th, 2009 Punk PR website lu-hive.

Tue, Mar 10th, 2009 Bird feed.

Hello there. You may have already noticed that I'm now hanging upside-down on this website, looking somewhat disgruntled.

This is because I am now using Twitter as a way of throwing random musings (and probably lyrics) onto this website.

Tue, Feb 17th, 2009 Souza Winds web design.

In a slice of that good news stuff, I will be designing and building a website for classical music / wind quintet Souza Winds.

Wed, Feb 11th, 2009 Safari / Chrome CSS fixxx

For all users of Safari or Chrome, you may or may not be thrilled to know that the wonderous Your Opinion, Sir? website now works for you.

It seems WebKit browsers don't like the '*' wildcard CSS hack / trick / tool /thing. But it's all good now, so go and give your opinion. And stuff.

Visit Your Opinion, Sir?, it will make you a better person.

Sun, Jan 4th, 2009 Gallery Show / Hide

To prevent the full gallery snippets and information being displayed on the initial load... there's now a nice jQuery feature that will show / hide information on the gallery page. To have a play with it, please visit the Freelance gallery page.

Happy New Year, by the way.
