Ads against drunk driving

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 05:29 PM PDT

Dont-Drive-Drunk-Ads1-640x426

Our life is valuable and we all know that but when we are drunk, we subconsciously damn care about our life. Driving when we are drunk is very dangerous. When we drive with a high blood concentration (BAC), there is an increased risk of accidents that lead to deaths and injuries.

Awareness plays a very vital role and sometimes it seems like we need to implement shock tactics to remind people about haphazard of drinking while driving. Leo Burnett Thailand was requested to design a series of prints by "Don't Drive Drunk" Foundation in order to raise awareness of the dangers driving after alcohol.

Below given are some of the mind-blowing images by Leo Burnett under the name called "Suicide" which reminds us of the deadly scenario that we are introduced to while we are drunk and driving. So, keep yourself safe and stop drinking while driving.

Tiny people’s big adventures in a world of food

Have you ever thought of playing with food? Well, it might have never entered your mind before and nor it was in my mind until I saw spectacular creativity of a Brazilian artist William Kass. The imaginative "Minimize – Food" photo series of Kass is simply exceptional.

Kass says, "My “Minimize” Project began in February 2013. I established a visual style, and from there, I began to produce the scenes. The project is a work produced at studio, where I try to study composition, light and shadow, etc. The project is focused on the art market and the advertising market."

With the combination of fruits, seeds, vegetables, ice-cream and any other edible items, he creates amazing and amusing miniatures. The way he portrayed an orange into a juicy, luminous pool, zucchini into cannon in a circus show and chilli pepper into bonfires with lovely tiny people are just out of the world and no words could describe how amazing it was. If you do not believe then the given pictures will surely blow your mind and you'll remain surprised.

5 amazing drag and drop themes for WordPress

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 06:55 PM PDT

Drag and drop themes for WordPress add easy customization to your favorite blog engine. Sounds easy right? It definitely is, even more when you get to realize that you need to have a background or experience in web designing or programming. All you have to do is select the elements that you want in on your WordPress and just drop them on your desired location. So without further ado, let's take a look at 5 amazing and cost effective drag and drop themes that can make your WordPress charming and elegant.

1. Modernize – Flexibility of WordPress ($55)

The most popular drag and drop theme of 2013 is currently on its third version for 2014. The new version allows more flexibility in customization and has new options in layouts. You can go for either full or boxed layout. With Woo Commerce supported, you can easily create an enterprise website, along with:

  • Pages using the simple drag and drop module
  • Change background colors and different elements from 15 unique theme patterns.
  • Add social media sharing and price tables among others

2. Jupiter ($55)

Jupiter is no short of fan base and is only behind Modernize in that matter. WordPress themes don't get any more comprehensive than this. Over 100 shortcodes along with narrative videos can turn your website upside down within seconds. Jupiter is 100% responsive and retina display ready. In other words, it's fantastic and has the highest resolution possible for Retina devices!

3. Blue Diamond Super Smart ($45)

Blue Diamond is one of the best corporate themes that is SEO friendly. Like other drag and drop themes, Blue Diamond is easy to use and set up. It provides your website with a look that can win clients. Its minimalist approach is just what a corporate website needs to integrate short and precise content. It also has an advanced admin panel along with live color changer.

4. Delight ($45)

Delight is one of those WordPress themes that just make you say 'wow'! It's an ideal drag and drop theme for artists, designers and aspiring individuals that value artwork. With equipped shortcodes, page, and internet widgets, there are unlimited skins available for Delight. However, Delight can be a tad slow and is more complex than other drag and drop themes. Hence, check the loading time with a demo before you purchase it.

5. Green Earth – Environmental ($55)

For environmentally conscious and nonprofit organizations, Green Earth is the best drag and drop theme on WordPress. Green Earth is a 100% responsive theme that offers you unlimited sidebars, millions of shortcode, and over 450 fonts (or uploads your own fonts). With a built-in translator, and customized slider options, the level of control with ease of use is unprecedented.

The surreal work of Erik Johansson

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 06:03 PM PDT

coverup

When it comes to using Photoshop, Erik Johansson is talented, very talented. However, all this talent would be put to waste if he wasn’t also incredibly creative.

In his artworks, Johansson combines poetry, realism and humor in his surreal landscapes. In his world, grass is not limited by the laws of physics anymore, but can do pretty much anything, even become a waterfall.

Johansson, based and working in Sweden, is a professional (obviously) photographer and photo-retoucher. He creates both commissionned and personal work, but in this post it’s the illusion type of work that really interests us.
