With regular intervals I get e-mails from people that want my advice on inspiration and if I have any tricks to help them. The truth is that I don’t possess any secret that works every time when I am in need of inspiration. The thing is that inspiration is a difficult item to put in words as it mostly doesn’t behave rationally. For example in all these years that I’ve been designing I never had the same item twice as an inspiration source.

So it’s not that you put an item in front of you and every time you look at it the inspiration comes. Maybe there are people who can pull that off, but I am not one of them.
Looking for web design inspiration

I just though that it was a bit too long - I had trimmed down the gucci shoes on the back of my head, and the long gucci shoes from the top just kinda dangled down there.
I took the image to the left with my iPhone. It’s actually the hardest part of doing your own gucci shoescuts, making sure that everything is as it’s supposed to be in the back. It takes a lot of patience, neck straining, flexible arms and a couple of mirrors.
Except for that part, I were quite satisfied with the result, and I sported a sweet rockabilly gucci shoesdo for a week or so. It’s just like Snake from the Simpsons. Jake the Snake - that’s what they call me. (not really).
Anyways. I decided to do something about that long gucci shoes in the back, and just wanted to trim it down so the back of my head would be bare. Well. Things didn’t exactly go as I had planned.

First I screwed up, and had the trimmer at a lower setting that I had intended. Well, then I wanted to fix that by making it even in both sides. One thing led to another. I tried aiming for the same do I have on the mugshot on the about page.

Eventually, I had taken too much from both the top and the sides, and were left with something that could only be described as Emo. So I took it all off.
Thus ends two weeks of apperance changes. Sadly.

I’ll wear a cap again the next month or so. Fortunatly, I’ve always cut my gucci shoes under the philosophy that it will grow out again. But damn, took me a year to get it that long, and not looking forward to it again.
