POWER OF WORDS

I am very intrigued with words that we give too much power to, such as Nigger. Check out what he has to say about the title of his new album. The most fascinating part of this is the reporters demeanor and reactions to his comments.

junkprints site beta


junkprints site beta, originally uploaded by junkprints.

These days I've been feeling really techie. Me and the interenets have a real "intense" relationship. I absolutely love browsing and all the wonderful stuff that exists on line, love designing sites but when it comes to building sites, that part drives me a bit bonkers and I tent to hire a programmer for the dirty code stuff.

I recently completed Temporary Gallery's site (with out a programmer) and like how it turned out so that inspired me to give dookyblog.com a facelift. I always intended dookyblog to be a stand alone site but out of I guess lazyness it ended up a blogger blog. I love google as much as the next person and was super happy when they aquired blogger because it made the whole interface alot easier to use, but like all good sweaters I out grew them and am in the beta staged of dookyblog.com still attempting to export my blogger blog to this one...worpress keeps telling me it should be easy but i beg to differ ;) It's not like I can have only one pot on the stove...so I've takin' on junkprints.com.

Here's the goal: To get a few items up and for sale direcly through junkprints.com, while directing customers to my whole line which is showcased on etsy.com. Don't worry etsy, I'm not leaving you...just expanding. I tries OScommerce and zen cart as cart applications, and I was able to modift the CSS info to get the 'store' looking okay...but not great and I kept having stange security problems so for now I've settled on 'buy now' options for each item. Until I cand find a snazzy PHP programmer who wants a but of buisness. In the mean time These are screen shots of the site so far. Let me know yer thought...and any programmers out there, let's be friends!

Twisted pineapple bag

Fresh off the presses! I just made this one today and it's on the site. I need to draw...just sit and draw and as part as my procrastination with drawing I've been designing these nifty huge bags. This one is already available for purchase. Think I'm just making one, so that I can keep making new ones...(and have time to draw)

Düsseldorf DOES NOT MESS AROUND!

A friend of mine sent this to me this morning, its a paper mache float of Bin Ladin bathing in blood (doesn't he look like a chef in tomato sauce) and was used along with Düsseldorf's Rose Monday Carnival. They must think that Americans are retards, and w/ the type of leadership we currently have, who could blame them! This parade looks like fun, they have a good sense of humor, 100 times better than the Macy's Day Parade! Read more here.

SAD SKATES


SAD SKATES, originally uploaded by junkprints.

as if the cloudy day wasn't enough...some bloke left these wonderful skates on the curb...was it that depressing?

When I saw these I was instantly reminded That Empire Roller skating rink had closed...the last Roller rink within the boroughs...pour out some liquor...it was home of the Roller disco for goodness sake!
