Better World Books package

After 15 days of eagerly waiting, my package from Better World Books finally arrived this morning. Better World Books ships for free worldwide. They promote the reduction of carbon footprint, thus, orders are shipped carbon neutral through Carbonfund.org.

Better World Books collects and sells books online to fund literacy initiatives worldwide. With more than six million new and used titles in stock, we’re a self-sustaining, triple-bottom-line company that creates social, economic and environmental value for all our stakeholders. -BetterWorldBooks.com

**Update: Since the 2nd semester of 2011, I started receiving my orders from BWB after a month or so. Apparently, the orders are being held by the customs so I have to claim my package in the post office. Plus, I have to pay Php40.00 for the tax.

Anyway, I got the Handcrafted CSS Video Edition by Dan Cederholm with Ethan Marcotte, so the book comes with a DVD. This should keep me busy this yuletide season aside from family gatherings, celebrations, and what not. Dan Cederholm wrote other books as well including: CSS3 for Designers, Bulletproof Web Design, and Web Standards Solutions.

I did a couple of illustrations last October for Vivid Creative Media. These illustrations will be used for custom paper goods and gifts.

Illustration Friday #10 “Afterwards”

8 Comments

It’s been more than a week since Halloween. I know it’s late already, but here’s something I made for the fun and creepy holiday of the year. For the “Afterwards” theme at Illustration Friday, here’s what happens after a trick-or-treat activity in the neighborhood. What else would the little kids do but enjoy the tons of candies they earned for the night.
