Quick update... awwww heck! we're getting some killer Speakerdog designs coming in for Series 6, it's going to be ace! Also sweetened up the Paper Toys section of the Speakerdog site recently, bit tidier, take a little look...

http://www.bentheillustrator.com/speakerdogpapertoys.html

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!

The website looks very good, but I already liked it, so that hasn't changed.
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?

The deadline for designs is July 17th, that's end of next week.

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!

Ah yeah, hadn't thought of that, I'll try and put together an even blanker template, without a face, I'll let you know when I've done it! Hold tight though, things get busy round here!
