Access theme for activeCollab

Here at Creative World we use activeCollab to manage and collaborate with client projects every day. It’s a great application and I don’t know where we’d be without it. Over the last few weeks I’ve been working on a new theme for it which I’ve decided to make available to the aC community.

This theme is called Access. Using web 2.0 influences, Access is designed with a soft, easy to view interface while still highlighting important events and actions to the user.

A Web 2.0 browser for a Web 2.0 world

Google Chrome - Because web pages are more then just HTML and javascript

A new web browser called Chrome was launched into the world today. It’s built by Google, is completely open-source, is currently only available on PC and is aimed to “make the web faster, safer, and easier”.

From a design perspective, one of the first things you’ll notice is the minimalist styling. Similar to google.com, Chrome’s design is striped down, fast and functional with very few bells and whistles. I have never seen a browser like this, and I actually like it a lot.

Pour Pritt - featuring Michael C. Place from Build

Pritt (a producer of stationary supplies) has commissioned Build to create a tv commercial to promote their new correction rollers called ‘MyStyle’. The results are simply beautiful. The commercial (which will only be aired in France) shows graphic designer Michael C. Place go through the complete creative process - from rough sketches to finished product - as he creates an original hand painted artwork using the new Pritt supplies. The music throughout the clip is from the awesome Midnight Juggernauts from Melbourne Australia.

If Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 is crashing for an unknown reason, it might be worth checking your CSS file sizes. Over the last 4 days I have been pulling my hair out over why Dreamweaver CS3 suddenly crashed, and stopped working, period. Here’s what happened, the problem and the solution:
