A question to the community at large. I’ve been asked to give an opinion on the PNG file format. More specifically, if it would be worth it to include a PNG version of products in the process of creating web photo assets. Note that I’m referring to a large number of product images (in the […]
Having a couple extra minutes today, I thought I’d renew my Costco membership online.
Here’s the process I expected:
Click Membership in the top nav of Costco.com
Click on a ‘Renew Now’ button
Enter my membership number and a credit card number

I’ve never ventured out on Black Friday. In fact, as I get older, the more I despise Xmas. Or at least America’s version of it.
But I do have kids, and it’s hard to deny a child a toy that they really want. Our 4 year old wanted a drum set for xmas. We did […]
