It all started innocently enough with me buying a trash can at Wal-Mart. I bought a nice-sized trash can. I picked up the grey one and just threw it in my cart. As I was leaving, a kind worker handed me the top for the trash can - I had stupidly ignored the DO NOT FORGET THE TRASH LID THAT COMES WITH THIS TRASH CAN plastered across the plastic cover.

Anyways, we had no intention of using the trash can lid. So we did what anybody would do - we converted it to a prop. Want to see the results?

See the SPACE CADETS gallery. We will be adding to this as the year goes on.

By the way, the gallery you see is the default template that will be used for Tokki. Coooooool.

edit: oh yeah, check out the hard copy presentation of that album. pretty hot, eh?

side note: presentations are created primarily for aesthetic purposes; if you want to present a gallery without a lot of extra clutter. these files are also statically generated so you can easily download them as ZIP files (this specific one doesn't have one) so you can share them or download them and run them straight from your hard drive or you can upload it to another website or something.

i'm still kinking out some major bugs and building some more default templates. i'm not rushing the development of tokki like i did for tabulas.

the UI is a bit ... complex, even for me. but i'm not sure how to make it easier; with more tools you get more complexity :(

good thing most of the powerful features won't be open to free users so it'll be easy to use for them :)

I'm curious to see how the UI is developing. Afterall, supposedly I'm specializing in UI design and development...

That's one of the funniest things that I've ever seen. I am going to look for one of those now. I want to be a space cadet.
