I’ve completed the first tutorial for PSDFan! The site still isn’t live but should definitely launch this week. Just to give you a quick taster of this first tut I’ve attached the final image - a cool music themed wallpaper. Don’t ask me why I went with music imagery, it just felt right.
I’d really appreciate any opinions from people if they like the final result and are interested in knowing how I made it.
Thanks!

I’m sure many of you are getting sick of these ‘coming soon’, ‘quick update’ posts, as I certainly know that I am. However, I can’t leave the blog without updating for yet another day. I leave you with a very quick message:
PSDFan is coming. Soon. It will be awesome.
Thankyou for your continued patience and support.

Ok, this is getting ridiculous. I’ve been so busy and had so much client work on that my personal projects have dragged on far longer than expected. Another main reason for the delay is that I suffered a major creative block trying to come up with a design for PSDFan.com However, I was evidently feeling creative today and managed to finish a really nice looking design for the site! It should be ready to go live really soon and then this blog may actually see some activity!
The whole waiting around period really hasn’t left me with a lot to write about. However, this site is going to really take off if all goes to plan and it will also have 3 sister sites that I’ll be focusing on over summer. Launch expected in a couple of days!

Summer has finally begun! Time to make blog posts. Time to work on web stuff. Time to get rich (I hope!). I’ll be blogging about my many summer projects here over the next few months.
First up…
DiscoverUnsigned.com has had delays in development and album launch but should relaunch within a week and see the debut album go live.
PSDFan.com is about to be started on in Photoshop by moi - I’ll try and get some opinions on the design right here before launching it officially.
Other sites include:
A Wordpress themes shop
A VERY useful resource for bloggers
A coding tutorials site (really a sister site to psdfan.com)
And that’s just to start things off. Of course I don’t want to give myself too much to start with - so the priorities right now are my design clients, discoverunsigned and psdfan. After that will come the coding tutorials site, and then hopefully the theme shop and blogging resource. Then I have a few more site ideas up my sleeve.
My plan is to be making $2000 per month from advertising alone, as well as cash from designing for clients. On top of this will come the profit from selling albums via DiscoverUnsigned.
More updates soon when these projects get off the ground!
