专题介绍
I'm a graphic/web designer living in Belgium. My personal journal is an online source for topics ranging from XHTML/CSS to graphic design tips.
I began my career in 1992 as a freelance graphic designer under the name of Duoh!. The first 3 years were mainly filled with print orientated work such as logos, stationery and brochures.
From 1995 onward, designing websites and user interfaces for intranets together with multimedia development was my main focus.
In 2000 I've founded Duoh! n.v. together with Geert Leyseele. I'm the CEO of Duoh! n.v. and live in Deinze, Belgium a small but beautiful country in the heart of Europe.
During the past years Duoh! has been working for the Library of Congress in Washington DC for a project called "The Learning Page". An overview of all this work can be found here.
In 2003 I've discovered Web Standards after seeing the CSS Zen Garden and the work of Douglas Bowman. Since then I never looked back and I'm actively promoting the benefits of Web Standards through this personal journal.
My dream is that I have a small contribution in making the interweb a better place.

One of the questions I often get from readers is if I could write a tutorial on how to create a certain logo. Its something that I think is not very good material for a tutorial because its so very specific. The hard part is not the execution in Illustrator, its the design itself, the creative process. Then again I think certain parts are explanatory e.g. a logo made of letters you draw yourself u...

Today I have a very easy to follow step-by-step tutorial for people who just started out with Illustrator. This is another request from a reader who asked if I could explain how to draw this ring shape (see image on the left). Looking at this shape I can see its made of 2 overlapping crescents which are then rotated at 45 degrees. There is also this interesting overlapping effect which adds a bit ...
