Today the dream of becoming rich beyond my wildest dreams by selling a highly stylized derivative of two display fonts ends.

I first tried to sell this font for $19.95, to no avail. Then I marked it down $5 — no takers. So I’m giving up and giving it away.

There are a few strings attached: Do feel free to use this font in any private or commercial manner you see fit. Don’t redistribute, sell (good luck), redesign, or otherwise re-anything this font. If you are lucky enough to use this font in a project, please send sample so I can see the wonderful things you’ve done with it.

Enough gabbing, go get it.

In a spirit of giving inspired by DesignBum, I’ve decided to offer some of the graphic resources that I’ve found handy over the years. This post marks the fourth entry in a four part series

Some call it the wicked worn look. Others call it machine washed. In the circles I run in, it’s called the distressed look. Each of these four patterns are actually 1-bit TIFF files. Each file can easily be imported into Illustrator or opened in Photoshop and colorized to your liking. Just lay your favorite pattern on top of your existing design, set it to match the background color, and you’re like two seconds from taking your designs from a’ight to tight.

My only request of those who download this artwork: if you use this in any your projects, send me a screenshot, URL, or printed sample.

Enjoy!

In a spirit of giving inspired by DesignBum, I’ve decided to offer some of the graphic resources that I’ve found handy over the years. Over the next week or so (at least until I run out of stuff to give away), you can look forward to free downloads of Illustrator files, images, and textures.

I’ve been using this dummy for a few years to mock up all of my screen printing projects (Fig. 1), and I think it’s time to share the t-shirt lovin’.

Feel free to download this snazzy, completely vectorized, customizable template….my only request of those who use this artwork: if you use this in any your projects, send me a screenshot, URL, or printed sample.

Enjoy!

Part two is a badge. But it’s not just a simple starburst-style badge, this one has scalloped edges, and those aren’t easy to make. I used Bartleme’s Photoshop tutorial as a starting point and recreated this bad boy with Illustrator’s vectory goodness.

I’ll set it off with a generic mobile phone I recently created in Illustrator. This is loosely based on the ubiquitous RAZR, and it’s great for mockups, demos, etc.
