Monday morning tabdump

January 28th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under
A new week, a freshly cleared desktop, it can only mean one thing: tabdump time! Yay! Alison Jackson’s fake paparazzi shots are great. As is RichardsonMag (a tad NSFW, that, hurrah), and the unworldly divine Natalia Vodianova shot in colour for Vogue Italia two years ago by Paolo Roversi.Very interesting, as Roversi has taken some of the most famous Vodianova shots ever, and their relationship gets ever more confident. Plus, the guy uses large-format polaroid and natural light, and so hence rocks it old school. (It’s also how he gets that lovely creaminess. Sigh.) And it wouldn’t be a month with a vowel in it without a new Agyness Deyn shoot. Also totally NSFW is FHM’s old video of the new Bond girl, Olga Kurylenko, discussing bondage. On the non-photographic side, we have Scribus, an open-source page layout tool, ala Quark or InDesign. Looks very spiffy. Just in time for the Shark-Jumping, here’s how to build a Facebook App, and should you require translation doing the pros at Proz.com are so keen as to have filled my inbox with 300 or so quotes for work. Quite terrifyingly keen, mais oui.
