I have to double check my posts now. I’m starting to bookmark the same designers on GizMag. Well, what you expect. It’s getting a rather large database.

And so there is issue number fifty!

What do Eric Tan, Rey Ortega, Antoine Perez, Céline Desrumaux, Francois Pons, Gary Levesque, Rod Hunt, Stella Im Hultberg, Catherine Campbell and Wagner Pinto have in common?

They are all part of issue 49. Go and see it!

Somebody added the GizMag cover to Ffffound… Cool.
It wasn’t me! :) I still don’t have an account yet. :(

New hot stuff over at GizMag:
http://gizmag.eu/issue/48/

Today, GizMag turns 1 year!

Yep that’s right, I started with the web magazine exactly one year ago. I honestly can’t believe it myself. What started out as a rather spontaneous idea, became a full-time hobby. :)

I’m not really a designer myself (well… maybe I am, maybe I’m not…), but you could say that I’m the biggest fan. :P I consider myself part of the MTV generation (MTV actually started 2 months after I was born). So I have a great passion for images and popular culture. With this passion I try to find quality designs in different fields (such as graphics, video, fashion, photography, …), which can give you some inspiration on a daily basis, and let’s you discover some fresh, new talent.

I hope you all enjoy the magazine as much as me making it, and that it can go on for at least another year. I might have some ideas to expand it in the future. But for now, let’s keep it going, there is still a lot of great talent to be discovered!

To give you some figures on the magazine:

• There are 47 issues online (so yes, I skipped a few weeks).
• That means there are 329 links to be discovered.
• At this moment there are 3 PDF magazines available to download, with a 4th coming really soon (sorry, still working on it).
• All together, the PDF magazines have been downloaded more than 12.000 times. So that’s around 4.000 downloads for each PDF.
• At this point I have more than 25.000 visitors coming from 141 countries (yep, that covers every continent).

47 x 7 = 329

That’s how many neat links are on GizMag.eu.
And you thought the worldwide web was boring… Tssss…
