Lovely to see my static image for James & James moving ❤️ I should really commit some time to learning some motion. In the interim I can provide all the assets your project may need and how they can move to help your project sing . #branding #illustration

I don’t know what it is that early reviewers expected from INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY and didn’t get, but I saw it this morning in Dolby Cinema and really liked it. It’s not as good as the first film obviously, but it’s right on par with Last Crusade for me, and WAY better than Crystal Skull. The action it delivers isn’t Mad Max or M:I intense, but the set-pieces are clever and Harrison Ford is as good as ever. Dial is fun and a perfect throwback to the 1980s action-adventure vibe of the first three films. I’ve it said before: @mang0ld never lets me down. The man just makes good movies and this is one of them. Ignore the haters—take the whole family to the cinema and enjoy one last ride with the good Dr. Jones to the fullest. #Indy5

Today's Blast from the Past (by popular demand) who remembers Banana Man? Makes me wonder if he started life in the comics or cartoon first..

I saw that many people are at a loss as to where to buy their cards/stationery now that #Paperchase has gone bust. If you're an indie designer-maker, perhaps you can add your link to this thread, to help those shoppers out?

Peter Saville: The very first Factory club night was advertised with this poster. Now its designer wants it back to complete a major archive. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023…

Sometimes readers are a bit embarrassed to say that they borrow our books from libraries rather than buy them. DON'T BE! At the current rate of 30.5p Public Lending Right we get for each time someone borrows our books, that's more than we get for a book sale in most cases!
