“Why does pretty much every designer or art director have a laptop computer? I know that there are certain people who need one (i.e. freelancers) but I believe that if you are going to own a laptop, then please, take part in some laptop etiquette.

For starters, print out your proofs. Do not sit there and expect everybody to crowd around your screen. Simply put, I cannot be bothered. Guess what, we have printers here and you can print stuff off for free. Or take 5 minutes to go to Staples or Kinkos — or are you too busy pinching every penny you get? And why wouldn’t you print it out anyways? Do you not understand that the RGB gamut is larger than the CMYK gamut?

Do you not understand that computer monitors translate colour differently than that of printed material? Do you not understand that the proof on your screen is 50% the size of what the actual printed proof will look like? Dumbass. ”

Quem j? viu o video de Bullet Poof Skin sabe que Gavin Rossdale est? de banda nova, ap?s o fim do Bush ( a banda, n?o o presidente) Rossdale virou ator em Constantine e estampou capas de revista ao lado de sua senhora Gwen Stefani, at? que resolveu botar sua garganta a servi?o do rock mais uma vez.
Juntou o ex-Helmet Chris Traynor (guitarra), Cache Tolman (baixo) e Charlie Walker (bateria). E a associa??o com o Helmet n?o para por a?, a produ??o do disco ? feita a quatro m?os por Gavin e Page Hamilton, o frontman do Helmet.
Armado de amigos, est?dio e aparatos, reuniu as boas coisas do Bush e o peso met?lico do rock nova-iorquino na d?cada de 90 num disco seco e bem acabado. Quem gostava do Bush, ver? que a voz de Rossdale continua possante e com aquele timbre pesado que combina perfeitamnete com as palhetadas nervosas do disco.
Assim como o Dave Ghrol, Gavin re?ne amigos em prol do rock pesado bem feito.
