N-vent related news:
Tonight I finally got around to updating my design portfolio, adding 5 new web designs. I’ve been blessed with a lot of work this summer and fall, and therefore have hardly had time for my own site updates due to the workload. My freelance brethren out there can attest to this.
I’ve been very happy with some of the websites I’ve had the opportunity to work on. It’s great to end up with a project that goes down successfully and is something worth showing in the portfolio. I’m pretty strict about the projects that make it to the portfolio page. Things that typically remove a design’s chance of making the portfolio are 1) design by committee, 2) excessive changes that result in a watered-down or less cohesive end product.
I also got my first “support request” from a link in the footer of one of my open source web designs. In extremely broken English, the individual asked me if he was being scammed or not by some provider of web services.

Uh… [Delete]. I wonder how many of those Andreas Viklund gets per day.
In addition to designing and building a handful of websites, I have been working hard on package design, and recently found out that Target stores now carry more of my work for Greenlight Die-Cast. These little cars really look good on the shelves, and have been a hit with collectors. It’s nice to be doing packages that see retail, expanding out from the relatively niche Indy 500 market. As far as I know, these packages can now be found in Toys ‘R Us, Target, Tru-value, Meijers, and K-mart.
