Icon Color themes

Under my theme Wizard and Sorcerers I've compiled 5 themes to base my color on. Most of the colors we created from tavern like atmosphere. The mood feels medieval and warm. Usually medieval themes are more based on realistic colours. Trying my best to find the mood to blend into my UI design.

Burnt Wood

Enchanted Tavern

Bloody Edge

Rune

Old Jewelry

Inspiration Abduzeedo

Personally I think Abduzeedo is a great source of inspiration, tutorials, wallpapers, info, etc. I don't know what I'd do without it! Something worth visiting!!!


Thunder Fuel

A Website I discovered about 2 years ago. Very interactive I'd say.With interesting graphics and copy this website managed to create some kind of vintage flow. The website was also specially designed for various resolutions to be viewed at. These web designers really took into account 'Good Design' with this interesting place for them to show their portfolio.
Give them a visit. The site has great Flash Animation.

Deviousness

I share my photography, art, graphics,..etc at DeviantArt.
Please visit my page! :) CLICK HERE!

I mostly deal in photography and I really love doing so, so if you're interested give me a call and maybe we can arrange an outing or so. I like portrait photography ranging from commercial to model shoots. I also do filming as a new thing (Still very noob at it). Anyways here are some of my work if you're hesitant to visit my galley.
