Hey all!

We'll be launching Series 6 of Speakerdog Paper Toys in late July and we're still open to anyone else who wants to get involved and design a Speakerdog Paper Toy. If you've designed one before, then you're more than welcome to do another!

If you're interested, send your name and URL to Speakerdog@bentheillustrator.com

Series 6 is the only regular series we'll be releasing this year, so we're hoping it's a real biggie!

I'm no web designer, and the Speakerdog paper toys have become bigger than I ever dreamt so it's a little tricky for me to design and keep control of the site, hopefully it's all easy enough to use and find the toys! Any feedback much appreciated!; ▶ Reply to This

But if you want a little point of improvement: you should have your own favicon.

Over the series 6: do you have some sort of deadline?; ▶ Reply to This

I need to figure out this favicon thing, I really do! I'll get onto it.

Gabriel, you don't necessarily need Illustrator. One option would be to print out the template, then do a design by hand, pen, pencil, paint, etc, then re-scan it (at 300dpi) and submit it to us!; ▶ Reply to This
