RE: FLASH: OT:Drawing a big ole thick line...

[Ray Frenden]

I have been experimenting with minimalism in design and how it applies to

the web. I am using NOTHING but web safe colors and simple 'microsoft paint'

style editors. Quite a change for me as I have been bred on photoshop and

big convoluted photo-intensive design. I will be posting it when it's

'running.'

philosophy behind netart and how you've

implemented this to web.

very interested.
