Gaya Design is back in business and hitting hard with a redo of the 2009 script QueryLoader. I kept getting e-mails and comments about it and thought I had left it just hanging there for way too long. It had become very outdated. So here it is: version 2 of QueryLoader!

Last week a friend of mine, Sieb, launched his new website for his design company called Siebstudio.
The website got mentioned on creattica and got some nice exposure through it.
This article will explain my part in the development and what we did to create a site like this.

As you might have noticed I kind of put my blog on a low. This is simply because I didn’t have the time to create new posts and give answers to all the questions that I got over the time when I ran the blog.
Don’t get me wrong! I really love how you people like my scripts and are expending this blog every day! You, the readers, are awesome for that.
This doesn’t mean I am done with Gaya Design though. I am planning on writing some stuff in the future, but for now I am very busy with commercial scripting and some other personal projects.

One of these projects, and you might have already heard, is Arcade Superstar. A music project!

Personally, I am a huge fan of negative space in design. This got me thinking while I was trying to accomplish something different. Normally a textual caption would be positioned above a background, but I wanted to do it the other way around: place the background in the letters.
I also wanted to add some nice dynamic effects to enhance the effect. This was amazingly easy to accomplish in jQuery with the use of a little creativity.

This article will explain what you need to do create an effect like this yourself.

On this day, but about 365 days ago, I published my first article. From that day I devoted quite a lot of my free time to this weblog, and still doing it with a smile!
It’s great to know where my little blog is after a year and I am very thankful for the people who made this possible.
