Free Halftone Tree Vector Graphics

I haven’t posted a free­bie for a while, so I thought I’d share one. This week some mid-century styled halftone tree vec­tor graph­ics. I made them in illus­tra­tor using gra­di­ents and the color halftone fil­ter. You can get some pretty cool halftones that way.

Free for use on per­sonal and com­mer­cial. If you use them just give me a quick shout out.

Down­load the vec­tor halftone trees here.

Friday Freebie: Barking up the Right Tree

It’s Fri­day, so that means it’s time for my Fri­day free­bie. This week a small col­lec­tion of bark tex­tures and one photo of some impos­ing conifers. So nat­u­rally I call this “bark­ing up the right tree.” Corny I know, but as Walt Dis­ney once told a reporter “We’re sell­ing corn, and I like corn.”  Well, I like corn too and I also like free­bies, tex­tures and bark. Hope­fully you do to.

These images can be used on any projects com­mer­cial or per­sonal. Just drop me a line and let me know how you used them.

Friday Freebie: Vintage Hawaiian Map Wallpaper

Feel­ing the Aloha Spirit today, so I thought I’d pass along a lit­tle desk­top wall­pa­per I cre­ated. I made it by mash­ing up a cou­ple of images from a 1950’s United Air­lines pro­mo­tional brochure of Hawaii. Very mid-century mod­ern. Mahalo!

Speak­ing of the Islands, I saw this again today, the late great Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo’ole  per­form­ing “Some­where Over the Rain­bow.” Chokes me up every time. Rest in Peace IZ.

Freebie Abstract Desktop Wall Paper

Another free­bie. I was play­ing with pho­to­shop layer effects, fil­ters and blend­ing lev­els. This was pure dig­i­tal explo­ration for the ocean. Add a lit­tle help from photoxpress.com with a decent look­ing sky and I think it tied it together.

I found the results very pleas­ing, if a bit mys­te­ri­ous. To geek out just a bit, I think it turned out to look a bit like the ocean after the island in LOST dis­ap­peared or some tech­ni­color Atlantis after the Gods enacted revenge for their hubris.

Happy Groundhogs Day!

Happy Ground­hogs Day! Looks like we’ll have an early spring, if super­sti­tions be believed. In honor of that I’d like to offer a lit­tle graph­i­cal goodie! You can down­load my Free Twit­ter Back­grounds for Illus­tra­tor and Photoshop.

These free tem­plates for your own use, pass along the link if you like them. The tem­plates for Pho­to­shop and Illus­tra­tor with guides and are in the three most com­mon browser sizes (800x600, 1024x768 & 1280x1024), though the 800x600 might be a bit use­less, but you might as well have the com­plete set. These were cre­ated in the CS3, if any­one is inter­ested I can save down the Illus­tra­tor ver­sion to an ear­lier version.

Down­load the files here.

By the way,  you can fol­low me on Twit­ter.

T.S.A. W.T.F. for Adobe Illustrator

I’ll prob­a­bly end up on some list some where for this, but there you go. I saw this great post on boing boing about the recent hub­bub over frisky and overly aggres­sive TSA screen­ing pro­ce­dures. I loved the  photo of the TSA WTF sign con­tributed to the BB Flickr pool by Sam Ley, (view the full “mak­ing of” set here) and thought I’d try to dupli­cate it in Illus­tra­tor and share it for my Fri­day free­bie. Down­load the TSA WTF in .eps, .ai, .jpg & .png. Enjoy tweak­ing the man.
