Design Federation

Just a note to anyone noticing some weird things here, we have migrated to an australian server finally, so it should be nice and fast!

Also, we have changed location and our permalinks, a bit of a hassle, but worth it in the end. This means you will need to update your old links to articles and also our RSS feed.

Hello friends - we would just like to thank everyone for supporting us, and let you know that we are almost 1 Year old. So instead of a party, we have decided to work some magic and come up with a new look for the site, we hope you like it. We will be having some more giveaways soon too, so stay tuned to this space.

The D-Fizzle team.

Our good friend Agi from http://www.ideaography.net/ has created a christmas flash fun game which looks pretty cool, you can check it out here. Today being the third, there is a cool frogger game, which will give a few of you oldskool folks some flashbacks.

To everyone who entered the Dendy Contol competition we hosted, Thankyou! We sent the tickets out and hopefully everyone has them now, quite a few people got the answer wrong too, if you were wondering it was 3!

We recently relaunched the Design Federation Forums! It has a new design so it looks more like the front news page. Featured is an RSS ticker up the top so you’ll never fall behind on what’s happening in the design scene. Now is the perfect time to register and start chatting with other designers.

You may have noticed the Google Adsense on the sidebar there. They are ugly, but to help us keep this site open and pay the hosting bills etc we have decided to put them up. If you hate them, let us know, or just buy software such as admuncher (which is made my an Aussie coder). It’s cheap as and you wont even see half the ads or popups online.

Design Federation are looking for new contributors to the site! If you would like to become part of the Design Federation team, send an email to info@designfederation.net and tell us about your interest in design and your background. The criterion is quite lax; we only ask that your writing skills are decent and you are passionate about design - whether these interests be limited to illustration, motion, web or are all-encompassing! We look forward to your response.

Today we launch the new look ‘n’ feel of Design Federation. We hope you enjoy it! The redesign should be friendly to all browsers, however, we recommend the use of either Firefox or Internet Explorer 7 and higher for optimal experience.

To anyone who may have received spam that appeared to be from us we would like to apologise and let you know we would never spam anyone and any mail you would be likely to receive would be from our designfederation.net email addresses. So it appears that someone has done this without our permission and did it to try to harm our image.

Thanks again for your letting us know.
- Design Federation team
