Designing Frenzy
News, Projects January 5th, 2008The title itself is self explanatory. I went on a designing frenzy for two days, which resulted in me forgetting to update all of my blogs when I really should. I’m trying to get my online store project up as soon as I can. It’s not much, actually. Just a small store offering print-on-demand and high quality silkscreen-printed t-shirts, custom-design service, mugs, caps and other small stuff. There are many similar store like these, but almost 95% of them are US-based or international-based. I thought it would be more convenient to set up a Malaysian-based store for us Malaysians. I hope to be able to launch the shop before the term starts.
Which reminds me… I have to add extra $2 to my monthly hosting bill for a dedicated IP. Else, I won’t be able to properly install my SSL certificate. The Visa credit/debit card payment gateway via Siteheart is settled and the payment gateway is secure (encrypted, 128 bit). I just thought it would be nicer for the whole store to run in secure https mode. Go me! Work harder!
I made a few t-shirt designs yesterday, and my personal favourite is this:
Wait, I love these too…
Click on those pictures to get a better view of them. I really want to get them printed and wear them around!
I also played around a bit with Stylish Geeks. You can go play around with the ‘Skin Me!‘ module. I added a new theme to the site to those who are fond of cheerful colours.
Okay. I think I better go and work on my store project… And finish uploading Junjou Romantica scans to Junjou.info. Uploaded Volume 5 - 9. I need to upload Volume 1 - 4.

Nice. My friend and 1 are on the midst of doing this kind of project too, but we’re doing baby related apparel.
But, it still in a very early stage though

Or maybe I’m just looking for trouble by drowning myself in all these
Yep, bloggers gathering, my thought exactly. I’d love to walk around with that shirt. It has another version, ‘Malaysian Geek’

You’re definitely talented and workaholic, I’m not good in design, so I just provide the ideas and capital.

Well, I am aware of netbuilder.com.my but I’m not talking about setting up a mall with lots of products. It’s just a small part time business, self-managed (probably with other designers later) offering unique merchandise
After all, 2008 has been announced as ‘The Year of Small Business’.
