Back when the internet was good, you could search for any image and get back thousands of results. These days 90% of the results take you to stock image sites that want money. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Spotted this relic today. Been awhile since I’ve seen a pay phone. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Recoloring art using gradient maps are so much fun. Endless color schemes that look sooo good. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: A few weeks ago, I shot a friend's 1976 Datsun 280z 2+2. Such a beautiful car. My dad told me my first ride in a sports car as a little kid was a Datsun 280z and that must have been what sparked my joy for cars (probably other things as well, but I'll roll with that nice story!). npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Had this idea pop up when I was listening to music while working at the coffee shop today. Execution could be much better and maybe I'll try again when I have more time, but I do love the concept and this is totally me. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…2fyy https://tapbots.social/@paul/115035510920354061 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…k482 noooo… npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…k482 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ja2d Nope. Straight install to a Mac Studio that shouldn't have any issues. Paul looked at my logs and it showed some failure because of attached hardware (some USB device?), but I removed everything from the machine, tried again, and still failing to install. I'm on the Sequoia beta so Paul thinks maybe it's just a bug on Apple's end and hopefully gets fixed in some future update. 🤞 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…5hmn I already have it on another machine, but I need it on my main one. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…a0dn Thanks for that info! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…4fn8 That made me chuckle. 🤭 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Trying to install MacOS26 developer beta. It downloads, prepares, installs, computer restarts and continues to install. After 20 or so minutes I'm back on my login screen, but I'm still on 15.7 (Sequoia). I check software update and it's asking me to install MacOS26 again. Did this 3x and MacOS26 won't install. Anyone else run into this? npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…maqv they do look like a painting at a glance! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: I love the clouds/sunsets here. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…66kr I loved mine! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…xaqe Very cool! I'll be honest, if I'm ever in Washington, I'll be riding my bike somewhere questionably dangerous in the woods. 😝 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…xaqe I had to look it up! 😅 https://www.galvestonnavalmuseum.com/uss-cavalla npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…9xn6 I went through a bunch of custom recipes when I first got it, but they tended to not work well in different lighting scenarios. So I just stick with the default simulations which give me inspiration when shooting and I end up editing my photos in Lightroom. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Some photos I took last week in an old Naval Submarine with my Fuji X100vi. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…4k06 I used to have a smaller 4Runner, but I have 3 growing kids and a dog and it was just too small for family trips. I need a vehicle that has a tow hitch with a good tongue weight because I put a lot of weight on it with bikes. Also good ground clearance and soft suspension for the places I take bikes. I don't like big cars, but it's a necessity for me. And where I live there's plenty of space everywhere to drive a bigger vehicle. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…4k06 I can’t speak for everyone else, but I just have a very small penis. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…4g3s There probably is, but I have no idea. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: #design npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…98xz Sweet! Looks promising! I don't play many games these days, but definitely always interested and love watching videos on them. Followed your channel so I can keep checking out updates as it progresses. 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…exqk it’s a mountain bike specific trail! A lot of hikers and runners like to enjoy them too though. They intentionally keep things challenging for riders. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…c8q7 That was my buddy riding in front of me. He got caught up on a rock and so made room for me to get by so I don't have to stop and try again. haha. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: One of the more technical trails in the area. Only about 8 miles, but it's littered with rocks and more complex technical features. Extra painful in the Texas summer. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: My Oakley Metas arrived today! Not sure why it came with a CD though. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…7mcl awesome! Hopefully there are some great trails near you. See if there’s a non profit mountain biking association in your area as they will usually have a website with all the trails they maintain. Then there’s sites like Trailforks that might help with discovery as well. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…jx7s Your trails are probably a bit more gnarly than the ones I have in my area. 🙂 No mountains here so it's hard to get above around 22mph or so at the fastest. Also summers are humid and 95-105 degrees (fahrenheit) so I'd probably faint in a full face. I do wear one anytime I hit bigger jumps or ride somewhere with more elevation/steeper grades. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…jx7s yea that’s probably true being closer to the ground. Chin mount is probably the best of both worlds, but I don’t want to wear a full face helmet if I don’t have to. 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…gl3w haha yea it is relatively loud. I like it because hikers generally can hear me coming from further away. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…05yk the one I ride most around here is a Revel Ranger. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…jx7s mounted on my helmet just under the visor. Chest pov is good too, but I feel like the head doubles as an extra gimbal and sweat/mud doesn’t find its way on the lens. And you always see where im looking. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Ended up doing a quick evening ride at one of the closer trails to my house and did a test record with an external mic. Sounds so much better! More bike/trail sounds and less heavy breathing. 😅 This trail has a lot of really fun features. I uploaded to Mastodon, but the size and compression makes it barely watchable so I recommend checking it out here (in 4K) if you want to see more than mushy pixelated artifacts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIzq006-g4Q npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…7mcl it’s a blast! And you get to enjoy the outdoors and get exercise as a byproduct. 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Fun little ride with a buddy this morning. Testing out a new camera placement on my helmet. Video is a 3 minute supercut of some "interesting" moments. Camera placement also reveals all the dumb sounds I apparently make while riding. 😅 I have a small wireless mic that I want to mount lower on my bike to capture the tire/trail sounds, but I have to figure out a way to secure it so it's safe and won't fall off. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…wxz0 I’m using a dji action camera which has a remote control accessory. This accessory has gps and other sensors built into it and syncs that data to the video. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Fun little video I shot while going on a paved bike ride with my youngest. He was on his Super73Kid while I was on my regular mountain bike. We ride from our house out about 4-5 miles to a big park and then back. This video is the ride back which ends up being about 4 miles. Sped up 2000x, slowed to 2x for my wheelies (I have to wheelie every bridge) and 1x for manuals because they are so cool (and much harder than wheelies). 😁 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ga54 @nprofile…uctk @nprofile…50af @nprofile…52z9 I went down this rabbit hole last year and Glyphs app is probably the best way to do it right. But when you have a ton of icons to make and time is money, who's got time for that? So I've ended up going the easy route and just use Custom Symbols which is an app that makes it easy to generate SF symbols from a single SVG: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/custom-symbols/id1566662030?mt=12 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: ✨ 🚀 https://radiantmars.com npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…z8r9 Definitely a classic!

I mean the story was kind of meh, but I was overall entertained by the music, visuals, and quirky/funny moments. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…sq68 Fuji X100 VI! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Created an LLC so I can eventually sell goods on my website. To get good pricing for apparel, I needed a business tax ID and resale certificate to get better pricing and not have to pay taxes on goods I plan to resell and collect tax for. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…jcm2 yes! But swap Takedown with "Free" for me. Takedown would be a top 4. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Confession (might delete later): npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: This video is old now so I’m probably late to the party, but saw it for the first time last night and love this so much. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…t25n Well I'm glad it's not just me. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: I feel like I'm holding it wrong, but a lot of basic object manipulation/selection tasks don't seem to work anymore in the latest versions of Sketch. That or they have changed and I don't know how to do them anymore. Feels like I'm using a different app. Half the time drag-to-select objects doesn't even work. And when I shift select multiple objects, it doesn't seem possible to deselect one anymore. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…66kr we get rejected all the time for the dumbest things so these apps can thrive! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…apkd Danny Macaskill is probably the Ken Block of trials. 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…pnf0 no timelines at this time. Between life and all the new OS changes, we are pretty swamped and overwhelmed. Will announce as soon as we are ready. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…d50a Nope. Trials. 🙂 Here's one of his videos on actual trials bikes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q7h9OJt2Ts npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Fun video from one of my favorite trials riders: npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ard0 Sort of? It's all very confusing. I just wanted to make sure I got one of the newer models that had the better touch screen. Most of the different models are just colors and what clip art packages it comes with. If you don't care about clip art, find the model that doesn't add and charge you extra for more packs. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ard0 Depending on the complexity of the sticker designs, the ScanNCut can automatically generate the cut lines for you. You can even set offsets if you want a white border. You can load your printed sheet into the machine and do everything from the touch pad. I just prefer to have fine control over it all and not deal with weird edge cases. Watch a few youtube videos on creating stickers with the machine. Most do it the easy way. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ard0 I used to have so much anger because of my Cricut and dealing with their software. The ScanNCut has been such a joy to use in comparison. Brother software is terrible from a design/ux side as always, but it works and doesn't get in your way. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…rnt9 Appreciate it Luke! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Wrote a detailed post on how to make your own vinyl stickers! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: 13 years ago today! #wwdc npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: It finally took a dump today and I was so not ready for what came out.

I'm aging backwards, mentally. 🙃 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…gawv Oh I haven't grown up one bit, unfortunately. I'm like the reverse Benjamin Button. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…qz7t Yes! But I also heard that they are becoming less common there too (especially new cars). It's a running joke here that a car with a manual transmission is now a theft deterrent because most modern thieves are too young to have learned how to drive a manual. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…pnf0 A dedicated tool designed for a single purpose is better than a swiss army knife. I know there are conveniences of an app that can work on both, but also a lot of compromises and causes for confusion. I'm sure there will be many other apps trying to tackle it, but not something we want to do or use. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…jm9n thanks! 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…zzkp Oh yea I guess that's a possibility. Will have to take a look! Thanks for the idea! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…zzkp I'm using Sass which I've always done for many years which is how I'm nesting everything. Wouldn't think that would be the issue? npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…zzkp Yea that's the issue I ran into and have no idea why half my css isn't loading on some browser versions. Will have to dig into it at some point. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…datw Details on what you are viewing it on? My website is very photo-centric and so it's going to be a bit bandwidth taxing. I expected that from the beginning. I can optimize it much better for mobile devices, but as I said, it's all a work in progress and I wanted to ship something vs only ever seeing the site on my local device. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…3rf5 thanks! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…t9v8 thank you! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: ✨Soft launched my new website today! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…0jz7 Yes it will be fixed. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…5a3a Well I meant the "local network" IP of my Mac so I could access it from another machine. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: You'd think this is something basic that Apple Intelligence could answer, but nope. 🤷♂️ npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…6wyj I only got into this because I have an Xtool laser engraving machine and so I bought their screen printer which is extremely basic (but well made) and there's a system to engrave screens and get them to perfectly align. One of these days I might end up diving into making screens the traditional way and getting a more capable screen print setup. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…0jz7 Good to know! But I do want the photos to look like they were shot that way. 🙂 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: One of the more ambitious things I want to do is also take "lifestyle" photos with people wearing them. Will probably start with my oldest son and I as test subjects, but I'd love to hire models once I get the look I want/like down. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Still not sure how I plan to shoot my shirts for the store photos. This one was just quickly thrown together with a single light just to see if I want to lay them flat on the ground (I'll attempt to remove most of the wrinkles when I take final photos.) npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Me after watching the Last of Us episode from 2 weeks ago. (I used to listen to the original song all the time as a kid when it was released because of my dad.) npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…8emn Nice! It's been stressful and fun at the same time. I definitely don't have any room for proper screen printing equipment (even the smaller stuff), so the heat press is working fine for now even though everything takes longer. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…8emn Heat gun enough so I can apply each color and then a heat press after. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…qz7t Thanks! I love when things unintentionally come together nicely. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Screen printed another shirt design over the weekend. Until now I've been only using water-based inks which I love the look and feel of, but tried plastisol for the richer colors. Also working with 2-3 colors this time (depending on the shirt color). Happy with how this one came out. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…ytx5 It’s fun trying to keep them charged so the battery doesn’t fail. npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: @nprofile…8emn I remember that. But that’s the limit of my memory on that subject. 😅 npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: Cleaning up my office and found this again. Must be around 14 years ago now. I was definitely in very good company including @nprofile…50af! npub1d7f6076m3c22yac8r3whq9h6jn5ncvj7c3l9d97m8cmukl50ynyss5dpvn Mark Jardine :misc_mtb: #design
