One of the best sites I’ve seen in a long time. This is why Flash should exist. Click through and play around. It’s beautiful.

This might be the ugliest status/progress bar I’ve ever seen. Damn Apple.

I really can’t stand the type inside those fingerprints. Apple usually does a good job keeping Myriad looking good, but not here. If they wanted to use the regular weight the letters should be scaled down to fit more comfortably within the prints. If they wanted really big type to KO most of the color, they should have used a bold weight to fill it out more. Now it feels awkwardly proportioned, like it was supposed to be another font but Photoshop replaced it with Myriad Regular by default.

how to be a great writer
You’ve got to fuck a great many women
Beautiful women
And write a few decent love poems.And don’t worry about age
And / or freshly-arrived talents.Just drink more beer
More and more beer.And attend the racetrack at least once a
WeekAnd win
If possible.Learning to win is hard —
Any slob can be a good loser.And don’t forget your Brahms
And your Bach and your
Beer.Don’t overexercise.
sleep until noon.
Remember that there isn’t a piece of ass
In this world worth over $50
(in 1977)..…
Get a large typewriter
And as the footsteps go up and down
Outside your windowHit that thing
Hit it hardMake it a heavyweight fight
Make it the bull when he first charges in
And remember the old dogs
Who fought so well:
Hemingway, Cline, Dostoevsky, Hamsun.If you think they didn’t go crazy
In tiny rooms
Just like you’re doing nowWithout women
Without food
Without hopeThen you’re not ready.
Drink more beer.
There’s time.
And if there’s not
That’s all right
Too.— Charles Bukowski, Love is a Dog from Hell
