The MOO Blog
You and the awesome things you do
Hello, it’s been pretty busy here in MOO office, as we’re frantically working on new stuff. I can’t tell you what, of course, as it’s Top Secret, but rest assured it’s all looking very exciting. In the meantime, here’s a quick round up of great creative ideas we’ve spotted. A feast for the eyes and the brain…
We featured allisonisugly’s sticker lamp in our last post, and she’s been at it again, with this cool MiniCards set. You put the top and bottom halves together to make a huge variety of faces. They’re all kinda scary looking, but the idea is great. It reminds me of the polyorama cards, featured a while back, so if you like this kind of thing, check those out too.
Game designer joshleejosh has also been having fun with his MiniCards, creating a set of Bunny/Pig/Robot/Monster/Ninja cards. You can use these to play a game like Rochambeau (Rock, Paper, Scissors). I love this idea – and now I’m intruiged to know, does he have to hand out 5 cards every time, or are people happy with just the one? (I’d like the whole set, please)
Developer Aral Balkan has also been getting creative, but this time with code. He’s made a set of MiniCards featuring the code needed to get the 100 most recent photos from Flickr into Flash, using SWX. (SWX is the native data format for Flash – if you want to find out more about that, hot-foot it over to Aral’s site.)
And Flickr user anneso_cachemireetsoie has been creative with her designs, in every possible format! She’s made beautiful looking Stickers, MiniCards and Notecards, featuring her lovely illustrations. I must admit, I spotted these as they were being processed, and it’s great to see how well they’ve turned out.
And last but by no means least, look at this cute photo spotted in Doc 18’s photostream! Doc 18 takes wonderful photos of vinyl toys, and this photo shows one of his NoteCards, (made with this photo) cheering up little Miss ChuBB. Get well soon, from all of us at MOO.
I received my first pack of mini Moo’s 6 days ago – they were so popular I’ve run out and have just placed another order! Wow!
Dearest Moo,
I got my Moo mini cards yesterday, and posted about them on my blog. You guys are so awesome, I just have to order more of these, and will encourage all my quilt buddies to do the same. If you want to do any publicity in the quilt community in the California area, please let me know…I would love to pass out your cards at quilt shows or do what I can to get the word out. Your products ROCK!!!
Best wishes,
Marisa
