My name is Alvaro, a.k.a. Digital*CHET.
I\'m a Graphic & Web Designer with a passion for Interface, Web, Corporate Identity and other types of Design, as well as Photography and Digital Art.
This site showcases some of the journeys and results of my efforts, as well as serving as a storehouse for my often random thoughts and activities.
These are the fruits of my Digital Impulse.
So it's been quite a while since I last posted anything here, but in between the limited time between work, rest and everyday life, I've finally managed to come up with something cool to upload and show off. :thumbup:
Introducing the Pliant Redux set of cursor pointers for Stardock's CursorFX product.
The Windows (2000/XP/Vista/7) interface is well established and pretty much usable, for the most part. It offers a good platform upon which to accomplish tasks quickly and easily without too much time wasted, but that isn't to say that it can't be improved upon. There are certain areas that, for some reason or another, leave the user wanting more.
Thankfully, there are individuals and companies out there that are clever and willing enough to extend the functionality of the Windows interface to make things even better for the rest of us.
Below are just a few of the applications I simply would hate to do without... in fact, I wonder how I lived without them in the first place. :unsure: Read More »
Well, after I dunno how many years now... -5, I think- I've finally found some backups of my earlier skinning work which I thought was lost for all eternity. :O
It's unbelievable that after all this time they should resurface, as I'd given them up as lost forever (although I still have the crashed drive that I hope to somehow be able to restore when I can afford it), and it was all thanks to my little bro's curiosity and looking through a bunch of CDs I unknowingly left at my dad's house.
So I'll be posting up additional icon packs from the Novacons series, and some others. Unfortunately, the photoGraphic Folder icons artwork was not recovered in this batch, but you never know, it might just turn up again. ;P
Stay tuned for the icon packs....
As it's been a while since I've posted, here's an update with a bonus. :thumbsup:
Continuing in the legacy of the Digi*Cons --a set of smilies designed and created by BebiBulma :bebi: and I :digitalchet: for the Wincustomize :winky: website-- I present to you a new set based on some of the characters of the fantastic Star Wars series.
Making their new "Digi*Conic" debuts are:
More may follow in the future... as time allows, but in the meantime these are available for use in the comments below and downloadable for your sites as a pack Read More »
Well, just a quick note to say that I've pretty much finalized my move with only a few things left to unpack. My computer and electronics are all set up and rearing to go but I'm now just waiting for the telcos to work their crap out and get me connected. iiNet, my new provider, would have done it sooner if it weren't for Telstra's arcane and draconic connection processes. Thank a lot 'Hellstra'. :angry:
As a result, I'm scheduled to be online as of the 23rd of this month. :(
I also decided to change providers. Internode was ok, but iiNet offered a better deal right now. I'm going to be getting Naked ADSL2 + VoIP so I won't be paying line rental charges, and all for the same price I was paying with 'Node. They also offer a higher off-peak download cap, which is always a good thing.
So until then I'm borrowing my dad's net when I get the chance and at work during the week.
So that's it for now. I'll try post up some pics of my new home when I get a chance this week, but until then, y'all take care now, y'hear?

Peace out. ...
