For Your June Bulletin Board Displays and On The Road

As usual, taken from my copy of Bulletin Boards For All Occasions, by Margaret B. Randall, 1966.

Heh/Meh signs by Extraface
When asked about what started his first “Andre The Giant Has A Posse” sticker campaign, Shepard Fairey tells the story that it was for an assignment that asked him to “affect the quality of the day.” I think that’s what motivates the parts of my work I’m most proud of. For ROFLCon(which [...]

It felt much bigger than last year, and that both helped and hindered my travels through it. On the upside, there were lots of fresh faces and more [...]

Comment Formatting Tweaks

As my first real WordPress Theme I have a feeling Extraface(currently at version 0.3) is going to be a work in progress for some time. I’ve been trying out some different things in the comments section over the last week or so, and tonight I uploaded some changes the templates and stylesheet. I’m not done [...]

Know Your Extraface Side Projects

Here are a few of the side projects I’ve started, thought about starting, or am in the middle of, all in various stages of animation from just born to undead zombie. If this looks like a foolishly large number of balls in the air, mental clutter, or a team of horses pulling in 5 different [...]
