Welcome

Hi. I’m Aaron. I design stuff. If you’re here, it means you probably went to check slickpixel.com. First of all, thanks for being interested. Unfortunately, SlickPixel had become stagnant. I felt that I needed to justify my presence on the web by having a site that was dynamic and actually had something to offer. A two year old, stale site wasn’t it.

I have been thinking a lot about what I want SlickPixel to become. I have some really big plans which, when mixed with procrastination and anal retentiveness, mean big timelines. Which brings us both here. The SlickPixel blog site. This site will offer more up to date content, and serve as a nice replacement until the new full SlickPixel site is completed.

I hope you enjoy, and if not, you can always visit my old site here.

April Fools

So, I was going to do an April Fools post about how I'm giving up design, or getting a sweet neck tattoo or something, but I wasn't feeling it for some reason. So instead, I'm just going to recap a few of my favorite gags from April 1, 2008.

New Gmail Custom Time Feature
As much as I tried to stay on my toes for April Fools, this got me for a second.

Helvetica Serif
I knew this couldn't be serious just by the kerning on the H-e-l.

Noah's Mug-A-Day
I think everybody breathed a sigh of relief when they realized this was hoax.

Project Virgle
I can't wait to see the video submissions they get for this one.
