Vermont Graphic Design

From Gaming to design,audio production, graphics and just about everything digital.

Heres the prototype /draft of a new project of ours. Vermont PC Builders and Repair crew Punkpc.com. From full system builds to upgrades and instructions.Our inhouse techs are moonlighting ,to the huge approval of devdes.
So as they start up the pc production shop.We figured we would lend a creative hand. And started working on the graphics for them. Pro Bono.(Alright we will extract some PC building at slave wages but..) .
Anyways.This is just a draft and screen shot.Playing with some GUI ideas as well as the logo. Kinda thinking a skull might be needed. So as a quick example of some of the graphic designs coming out of Vermont.And as a favor to friends.Theres the first draft. More soon with Devdes.The VermontGunblog.com. Some up coming changes and upgrades to jimmzpizza.com. And some new clients are getting welcomed to the dev des ever growing family.

Winter is soon to be on us up here in Vermont. Expect there might be some local ski reports to the Stowe Ski Areas. Or heck most of Vermont. And oddly enough or not some recipes for some tradional and not so traditional (to Vermont at least) recipes. And a heck of lot more…in our spare time hehe.

Thanks

Well when this blog of ours started one of the first postings we thru up was about an
Antec 1200 Case..Its a beast of a case.Mostly metal and menace. One of the reasons for spending some good hard coin on
pc furniture is its airflow and in this case its filtration system.

(edit: this rig is used mostly for.Photo shopping huge images/or web design graphics.Digital video editing/rendering and of course some serious gaming..with all settings set to BarBQ)

Now this machine has been running hard for months. Under load for months. Overclocked and naturally aspirated not liquid cooled..
Even with all 8 cores of my intel i7 920 overclocked.The ati 5890..over clocked…the machine stays just below the danger line..so after several months of hard usage and at my brothers suggestion of “hey ya got a dust buffalo”..I pulled out the 20 some odd thumbscrews.Popped the drive bay cages and removed the dusty filter…Blew them with the devdes electrical can of air..rinsed em and a quick scrub..then dry and …Pc is running bout 10 to 13 degrees cooler…so even with the front air intakes some what clogged the Antec 1200 runs cool…with the filters and fans cleaned.Its like adding a cold air intake to your car…Great job and Devdes officially recommends this case for any serious computer usage or heat issues with your current or future rig.

Well something like that. Ok so September started busy and hot. The temp has fallen as fall rolls in,but Devdes is still thankfully slammed with some very cool and fun projects and or clients.

Firstly.
Vermontgunblog.com is up. However we are still adding form and function, so check back soon over there. We’ve got some videos and firearm reviews going on. Teaming up with Cy from Parro’s gunshop and Police supply. We managed to get our hands on a T&E gun from Ruger, And ran several hundred rounds thru the new Ruger Sr9C. Some Wasr-10 reviews and some videos as we work on modding the weapon. And a explitive ton more
We got some GREAT NEWS!, from James Roy, That Irish Guy who makes some of the best damn pizza (ever).
Apparently the website we designed and built and do some marketing for(ie www.jimmzpizza.com) .Has had a
recent string of new customers, or old customers placing old orders because of yep..jimmzpizza.com in Watebury Vermont.
Best of all, They had an order come in over the phone,from a bunch of tourist from China. And by bunch I should probably say a literal,BUS-LOAD! of people looking for excellent Thin Crust Pizza.And best of all from China. Thats kinda far to go for a slice…but ya know..I cant blame em.
So huge smiles and proof in the pudding.. or make that pizza. Should ya decide to roll on over to Jimmz. Order the Devdes “Craxycotton” why the crazy name?… cause its addicting. Well as long as as you like grilled chicken, smoky vermont bacon,bbq sauce,purple onion and black olives. Tell em Devdes sent ya.

Well more soon as we try to get back here and or remember we have a devblog for projects. Alright back to making Vermont Pizza sell in China, and other fun Vermont Seo and design stuff soon.
