It’s Photoshop, HTML, CSS and a little jQuery. I was really excited to work on an art thing using my HTML skillz since I’ve never really done it in a visual way like this. It’s mostly a tech demo/proof of concept, I hope to tighten up some of the art in the next couple of weeks. <br/> Working on this convinced me to have an HTML component in my senior project, but I don’t really know what that means yet.</p>http://masonsklar.com/post/22523377282http://masonsklar.com/post/22523377282Sun, 06 May 2012 11:41:00 -0500artillustrationportfoliocomiccomicsdigital comichtml5css3jquery<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3lyooh8NA1rsyauro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://cptnelliott.tumblr.com/post/22520255809/this-is-for-my-screen-printing-final-the-final" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">cptnelliott</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>This is for my screen printing final.
