Hello there. I am Terry and I am a full-time undergraduate based in Singapore. I take photos, write a blog and design websites.

And no, I'm not a teddy bear.

The Butterfly Effect

I stumbled upon a Photoshop tutorial on Dayna's blog teaching people how to create the beautiful butterfly effect. Initially I thought it requires Photoshop Illustrator plus a lot of really professional skills but hey, check the tutorial out, it's easy and clear (and most importantly only Adobe Photoshop 7.0 and above!). Textures used in creating these images are from Vered in a set called Textura. I just realised that the Butterfly Effect tutorial can be applied to other things too… like flowers!

Due to the large size of the images they've been placed under the read more tag :mrgreen:

Here you go! Do tell me in the comments which of the 6 you loved the most ;)

Terry Mun (Teddy)

I'm relatively new to the design world - only to start learning HTML in secondary school and then moving on to (X)HTML and CSS in college. Since then I have been hand-coding my designs using notepad, alongside with the amazing help from Firebug. I embrace photography as a personal persuit during my free time, and I prefer spending the rest of it doing meaningless quizzes on Facebook and destroying the world (in Rampage World Tour, that is).

    这个很有趣。

    表姨常常在想，如果我的左边脸和右边脸的比例是一模一样的，眼睛啦，鼻子啦，嘴巴啦，都是一样的话，我看起来是不是会美一点点？哈哈~~

    读者文摘里曾经看过这样的文章：有人搞实验，让婴孩看一组人脸的照片，发现有一些人脸婴孩看得比较久~~ 这些人的左右脸比例都差不多一样，看起来很整齐，也就是所谓的俊男美女。所以表姨很好奇，如果我左右脸比例一致的话，那么我究竟长什么样子呢？

    原来用这个BUTTERFLY EFFECT就能知道了么？有空我来学学。

    Those are gorgeous. Except you have to take the ‘butterfly’ part out because obviously, you didn’t use butterflies!

    That’s a nice blog– either she knows flash, or someone did that part of the site for her. That’s a nice tutorial too. I’ll check it out in a while.

Your name is required. Why?

  • So that I can address you personally (which I'm more than happy to do).
  • Everyone loves their name to be called, right? Nobody wants to be referred to as 'a certain someone' or Mr X (X-Men members aside).
  • If your post too much spam, your name will be imprinted on a personalised voodoo doll, completely free of charge. I'm just joking!

Your email is needed. Why?

  • Your email is, and will, never be given out to any third party under any conditions (except for people sneaking up behind me when I'm on WP admin).
  • So that I can contact you personally in case of certain issues that I wish to address personally.
  • If you post too much spam, I'll email the same spam you've posted 10 times back to you, completely free of charge.

You can always leave a personal URL behind

  • It can be anything - most people put their blog URL, their facebook page, their Twitter URL, their MySpace or etc.
  • I give love back by saying NO to no-follow. All of your webbie links are dofollows instead.

Twitter. Twitter. Twitter.

  • What is Twitter?: Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 bytes in length.
  • What is my Twitter ID?: To get a Twitter ID, you simply have to sign up for an account at Twitter.com. Your ID will be in the format of your profile's URL - http://twitter.com/[userid].

Hello Easter Egg hunter! You've discovered the magic of the Konami Code!

Yea. You probably know what the Konami code is before getting to this page. So now what? Here is a randomised YouTube video on my favourites list... which includes Rickroll, if you're luck enough to get it.

You are currently watching George Washington. Loving it? You can even watch the video in its full screen glory :)
