• projecttree 12/31/05 
  Description: photography, web development tutorials, and other projects
  Comments: "Primary reason for the making of this site was a desire for a meaningful web presence." I've encountered Mike's web articles several times recently, linked from sites I follow regularly. He provides an assortment of development-related tutorials "missing or inadequately covered elsewhere." Topics include XHTML and CSS and Javascript and the site's a fine example of super clean design and functionality in may opinion – "passed validation" is no surprise. His interest in web development in just part of the equation. "Photography trains a keen eye that listens to the environment and recognizes the elegance in the surroundings." I love his photos! In the albums, check out Color & Light before enjoying collections of shots from 5 different countries. And if taking in music at clubs is your thing, Mike's in New York and carries his camera with him when he goes out (yummy). Speaking of clubbing, I'm tickled Mike announced his newest project (pretty cool in itself) 'cause it prompted me to further explore projecttree – and here we are...;~))
   
• Art on the Net 12/29/05 
  Description: a virtual space where artists join together in sharing their art with others on the Internet
  Comments: "Enjoy visiting artists studios and roaming the gallery rooms." Over 11 years ago, the site launched as a result of a barter between Lile, an artist, and a friend who was interested in one of her oil paintings. She got a free internet connection for a year out of the deal and soon launched art.net. Today, it houses the works of over 400 artists, presenting their works in a non-commercial setting (see the Manifesto). The design is somewhat old fashioned but the site's navigation is pretty good – more important, the content is remarkable (and vast). Here's a fun starting point... 
   
• SELFish 12/28/05 
  Description: photo and video art of Giovanni Antignano (Flash)
  Comments: If the site consisted of Giovanni's Nightshift series of 15 photos and nothing more, it would probably still be today's pick – though surely a matter of personal taste, I just love his night shots. There's 4 other series of his artistic photography, plus a Videogallery of visual/aural artworks in itself quite special. View Wondering Tabla and Postcard to see what I mean. Have a tasty day...;~)) 
   
• JeremyDower.com 12/26/05 
  Description: illustration and character design
  Comments: Jeremy's crazy mixed-up world includes the 2-headed salaryman figurine who would prefer you call them "graham" and erwin the baby carrot figurine who warns he's "a bad seed" – incredible characters especially when you mutate or disassemble them. There's plenty of other crazy characters to amuse you too...

  Description: digital imagery, motion, and music (Flash)
  Comments: If you wanna have some fun, download the variason Flash sound toy, turn the lights down low and the volume way up, and go to town with your keyboard – sort of a symphony and color light show all-in-one. Also in the media and algorythmes section is a collection of home made music you can listen to while you view the tasty art and design works in the galerie. There's more, but you'll have to explore...;~)) 
   
• Nature and Travel Photography by Rick Walker 12/11/05 
  Description: a love of the outdoors and traveling
  Comments: Rick and his family love to travel. Their last trip was to Alaska back in August. It was Morocco and Spain in April and southern Florida in January. Those destinations represent just 3 of 19 photo galleries. Living in Colorado, Rick certainly has an eye for beautiful landscapes and wildlife – if you appreciate the great outdoors, you're gonna love his collection...
