So I’ve been meaning to make one of these for some time now and I finally got around to trying it out. I chose George Eads for my custom Firefox persona because I didn’t find one that’s readily available. Nothing too fancy with it—probably could’ve used more grunge in the effect, but it’s a test—so, [...]

Sidney the Baby Otter
This is probably the most cutest thing I’ve seen today that just melted my semi-cold heart lol. It really is adorable but 1) where can you get an otter for a pet and 2) they really should be living in their natural habitat. The cute big eyes, the fluffy-looking fur, and its chew toy got [...]

Another Redesign
So kmendaros.com gets another make-over. I did like the theme I had up before, but there was definitely a lot of scrolling down to do. I like this one better because there’s definitely a lot more room like I’m used to and I can move out content that don’t belong here (but will be relocated). [...]

I Finally Got the Shots I Wanted
These are a couple pictures of some of the rabbits found around my neighborhood. This baby spotted my sister and I out on a walk and it hunched down hoping I wouldn’t spot it. I was surprised how it didn’t run off after I did the best Jeff Corwin or Steve Irwin attempt to get [...]

Illustrator Tutorial Section Added
I’ve added a new tutorial section covering Adobe Illustrator. Currently the conveyed material is text-based and examples will be added to it soon. Graphic designers familiar with this software can create some of the most mind-blowing designs, graphics, and text using vector-based images.
Vector art is where it’s at
