Freedom Walker

Freedom Walker


Ello ello all u Leapers out there!

This blog has a two-fold function!
First: I want to highlight an awesome new submission for the Faces of Africa design theme competition called Freedom Walker by none other than design master Tu.
Second: talk about design that may have potential beyond t-shirt design.

Ok so first off Tu’s new design Freedom Walker! Unfortunately we had a small glitch on the backend and this fabulously awesome design only appeared for voting almost a day late. Hopefully this won’t reflect on the votes, because I know quite a few members hit the voting page as soon as it goes up.
This seriously funky design borrows the idea of the well known Johnnie Walker branding and transforms it into a truly South African design which suits Face of Africa down to the ground.
This design has mega potential and even though it is a late entry I feel that it could go all the way for the win…in fact if it had been posted sooner when I did my voting it would have ended up on my Top Picks for the compo list.

FNB ATM


Hi there one and all.

I never thought I’d write a blog on this subject, but hey, here is a blog about bad banking.

Ok, so we have all had sucky experiences with the band. They overcharge us with ridiculous service fees and lead us to believe that they are really our friends….lol. No, no, friends don’t usually hold onto your money and deceive you…just do what you are supposed to, don’t mess us around and help OUR money grow…simple as that.
 Anyway that aside, when I talk about bad banking, I’m actually talking more about the fact that I had a bad experience with one of the FNB ATM’s the other day.

If you are in the Sea Point are and use the ATM at the Checkers you will know exactly what I’m talking about. Recently they must have changed the software because they have a new “idle” screen that pops up whilst waiting for a human to put in their card. I’m not sure why, because FNB’s colour scheme is blue and orange, but for whatever reason it displays a full red screen…bad banking!

Hustle Kings

Hustle Kings


8 Ballcorner pocket!

Yep this blog goes out to all you pool hall junkies out there. While many of us spend our weekends standing around some or other pub/club trying to sink the black, some of our more introverted human friends would rather stay at home on a Friday night and huddle around their PlayStations.
For those who would rather stay at home and play pool, here is an awesome new game called Hustle Kings, which is pretty much as real as it gets….well without actually holding a cue and leaving your room.

The new release Hustle Kings is an absolutely beautiful (yet simple) video game simulation of the real thing. While Hustle Kings may not be the most original game out, it still has potential for a high fun factor that will thrill those at home who like to play competitive games against their buddies…but what is the “lastability” of a game like this??
I remember back in the day, shooo I must have been in like 1994, we had a similar 3D style pool hall game….think it was simply called 3D Pool, can’t remember. But yeah, my buddies and I had loads of fun jamming that game…that was until we were old enough to sneak into pool halls and pubs lol.
