Friday 28th July 2006 Well holy freakin' hell... no update in over 3 months. What can I say, it's been a busy old time! I'm currently working on the final touches to the artwork of the debut album from KLAY. That should be approaching the finish line soon. I've also recently finished setting up a website for a musicians network called SOUND SKETCH. That was fun, alot of jiggery pokery with tricky coding. The other website on the go right now is for a new independant online record store called LOUD HORIZON MUSIC. It'll feature mainly underground bands and may soon offer some label prospects for bands wishing to get their music heard. More on that as it develops. Expect it fairly soon. Other than that, keep your requests and questions for work coming in, the more the merrier. Thanks for reading. .......................................... Wednesday 26th April 2006 The photography page now has some samples of past work. Pricing is very competetive (as is the entire point of Ruptured) so please do get in touch if you wish to make a booking for your band, for a gig or promo work. For a quick look at some pictures, I've linked them below... how nice of me (pictures open in popup)        .......................................... Monday 20th March 2006 So there we go, the new design is up. It's very minimalist, and that's on purpose. The last design was FAR too cluttered. Anyway, I'll be back soon with proper updates. .......................................... Sunday 19th March 2006 Ok, so another wee while between updates. Things have been ever so busy. This is just a quick update to let you all know I'm still alive and kicking, and that I'm working very hard on alot of projects. There's going to be a redesign of this website soon, as I'm sick to death of this one now. At the moment there's a website underway for a project called Soundsketch. More on that when the website is finished. There's also various other things that will pop up. So aye, keep em' peeled. I'm rather knackered right now so excuse this very droney update. .......................................... Sunday 15th January 2006 Well a very belated Happy New Year to you all. The updates have been non-existent for over 4 months and I can't believe how time flies. Ruptured (as any Ruptured fans will already know hardeehar) has branched out into recording and producing. So essentially you can now have your CD recorded professionally, the artwork designed, and a website uploaded, all by Ruptured... nifty isn't it? I think so anyway. So because of all that, the designing has taken a back burner, but things are well under way again. There's a very exciting new CD artwork in the pipeline which will appear very soon. It is for the fantastic band KLAY. So look out for that. I'm also working on a couple of websites, well actually a fair few, so keep 'em peeled for that all appearing before too long. Please do get in touch as I'm always taking on work. I'll also be redesigning this homepage, FINALLY, coz it's been pissing me off for a while now... far far too busy looking. What was I thinking?? Take care people xxx .......................................... Saturday 10th September 2005 I'll try and keep this thing updated as much as possible. I'm currently working on websites and designs for the following people: Art Is Dead Clothing Jagged Alice Band Richard Nixon Band The Panic Band The beginnings of the AID Clothing site is at this big link here. Nothing much yet, but it's being worked on. Been really busy, lots of work on... keep's me on my toes so who's complaining eh .......................................... Sunday 4th September 2005 Ok so there's been a big gap in the updates around here, for a good reason. I've been BLOODY busy. Not just with designing, but that plays a heavy part in it. At the moment there's only really a couple of things to show. First of all there's a CD sleeve design for Scottish, Ayrshire based band NOTHING FROM NOWHERE. The CD is called AN INTRODUCTION and if you're into your new bands, particularly of the screamo/metal type genre, then give them a listen. [ see the artwork ] The other fruit of my recent labour is a t-shirt design for KLAY who I recently also finished a website for. [ see the t-shirt ] There's some websites, some more CD sleeves and various other bits and pieces that are gonna make their way online soon. I just can't get my head round whether or not I should redesign this site first though, I just never seem to have the time to do it. .......................................... Tuesday 28th June 2005 Hey kids, another wee update from uncle James. Just finished work on 2 websites. The first of the band KLAY who are from south-west England. Check that shizzat out HERE. Secondly the temporary website (a blog style site) for the almighty Biffy Clyro is now online... check that out HERE Coming soon is more work for KLAY, and some other bits and pieces which will appear... remember, I'm a cheap-ass designer who appreciates any money at all, so shout me HERE if you need any work doing... J x x x .......................................... Monday 30th May 2005 Summer is but upon us... well nearly, it's nice day today though. The Nothing From Nowhere t-shirt design is now online available to scrape your eyes over. In development we have a new website for Biffy Clyro, GoRolling (a Glasgow skating community site) and others which are being discussed. Stay tuned for all the details mofo's... take it easy SEE THE NEWS ARCHIVE
