Every month smashingmagazine.com does a monthly calendar wallpaper, and I entered one my daily design doodles (that ended up being an etsy banner) in the July 2009 version.



I wondered why I was getting more hits than usual, and it’s because the July 2009 calendars are out!


Mine is a little more simple than some of the others (perhaps not so suited to a wallpaper . . .), but I’m pretty stoked to have something up there, and to see that some people liked it in the comments was pretty nice.


In terms of design I feel that I’ve got a craazy long way to go to be where I want to be, but the only way to get there is to keep trudging forward, so trudge on, I say! :)
