Due to problems with setting up the payment processing system, IconResource has been delayed by a week. I found this most disheartening and extremely annoying, but there’s very little I can do about this; it’s all in the hands of my payment institutions at this moment, so all I can do is wait patiently. Again, my apologies; I look forward to seeing you all when we do launch, in a week on April 2nd.

Edit; if you want to give some valued input, fill this one-question Google survey about the pricing of the pack. Your input is highly valued!

Although a bit earlier than I wanted to announce this, an inside scoop on the latest Mac Developer Roundtable forced me to put up at least something. IconResource is my biggest new project.

What’s IconResource? It’s a video series aimed at intermediate computer users (no Photoshop knowledge required), and aims to teach you about the theory and techniques of icon design. Basically, it teaches you A-Z how to make icons, directly from the source. To get a good insight into its ‘features’, visit the preliminary website.

A select amount of individuals have already been invited to ‘sample’ the videos before release, and I will adhere to my March 26th release to the public. Pricing will also be announced at that time.

For now, don’t hesitate to leave your feedback on this great new endeavour Cocoia is embarking upon!

Latitude, my dream browser project, has now got a website. Since we now have a real team together, you can keep your eyes on this webspace for updates on this project. Of course, we are in an early stage, so please don’t ask for a tester spot yet, but we’ll update this as it goes along, with the design document and all coming up.

In the next few days, a few recently acquired domain names will open teaser pages. I hope this whets your appetite for the upcoming surprise. As of today, IconLog went public, and I’ll edit in more in this post with an explanation as the next sites follow. I expect to launch these websites no later than March of this year.

Well, since there were comments without line breaks, the sidebar went weird, and the typography was getting less pleasing by the day, I decided to do some weekend work on fixing the blog. You’ll find that there’s numerous improvements, including a real about page, and several preparations for a big new plan. So what are you waiting for? Get out of that RSS reader and give ‘er a spin!

Well, the old Cocoia.com has been retired forever. For the sake of history, here’s the old website design, which I did in the third quarter of 2007;

In its place will be this teaser page, until the new, dynamic combination of Icon Designer and Cocoia will be opened. I will assure you, it will finally be a logical place where you can easily find a lot of downloads and resources to download. The release be accompanied by the release of my Forgotten Mainframe and Orion Extended set – and oh, some extra’s.

Check out the new design and my favorite internet places on Cocoia.com – and I’ll see you all when the new site goes live!
