Detour to Osteopathy

After many years of thinking about it I decided I wanted to study osteopathy. Searching around I found out about the European School of Osteopathy in Barcelona. I couldn’t study in this school because they don’t have a full time degree, so I came to Boxley in Maidstone, Kent, England where I will be studying for the next 4 years.

Who knows what will come next but definitely something new, new adventures and new perspectives for life.

Kill internet explorer 6

Yes, looks like my last posts are related to killing and death. But this one definitely has a point and it’s about the death of Internet Explorer 6. I am tired of hearing programers/front end developers complaining about the hassles of IE6. As you can read in Cristian’s post stop pixel perfection for Internet explorer 6, no more IE6 in our site and no more unnecessary work for clients that don’t care about alignment or pixel perfection.

We will be writing an extended post about our process in re-designing the rating interface. So, i will link it here when it is done. Meanwhile you can check the improvements in the jovoto blog or in the jovoto website. I really like what we have done and any feedback will be highly appreciated.

Gimmicklab portfolio upload

After Cristian has spent too much time gathering all the work we have done in the past years at gimmicklab, which you can visit in here, I would like to mention, with great satisfaction, all that has been done for hydroponic since the very first day. Not only the logo or illustrations for t-shirts, but all the creative direction, which has led to improve all the designs by unifying the collections into one theme.

Finally, our latest attempt in order to deliver the most innovative designs for hydroponic, was to set up a contest in jovoto; which gave an amazing result in the designs that where submitted, and form my point of view the best collection concept ever produced.

easyJet Contest Running in Jovoto

Looks that we finally made it and manage to get easyJet to set up a contest in the platform. It wasn’t an easy task but it’s a great opportunity for Jovoto, for easyJet and for the creatives in the platform. 

The briefing is pretty interesting and fun. The actual campaign for easyJet is based on representative or symbolic objects from the cities and beach locations the company flies to painted in orange. The city and the price is overlaid on it. 

Now easyJet needs more objects to promote these cities and beach locations, so they are asking the community to come up with ideas on which are these objects from these locations. Paint them in orange and if they like the idea they will buy it and publish it outdoors.  

Some really good ideas have been submitted already and the contest has just started.
