Today I started work needing some avatars to add to some Photoshop comps I am working on. There didn’t appear to be a pack of avatars available for download that people had consented to be a part of, so I set about making one.

I collated it throughout the day, and it’s now available for you to download. Everyone within the pack has consented, within reason i.e. please be sensible, realise you are using the face of a real person (of course!) and don’t use them on anything controversial, or anything that will cause distress or defamation to their character.

If someone wants to reduce the file sizes for me, that would be fabulous. I’ve simply batch processed everything, entirely usable but I’m sure could be smaller.

Enjoy!

This is a bit of an out-of-the-ordinary blog post for me, but apparently, our industry loves whisky? I posted on Twitter last night about some rare whisky (or Whiskey if you’re American) that my Dad is in possession of and my feed lit up.

Some history…my Dad and my Grandad started an off-licence/liquor store, 30 years ago. What they both don’t know about Wines & Spirits isn’t worth knowing. Since Grandad (Pops) passed away and my Dad, as some of you know, had an accident last year, he’s is shutting up shop, and retiring early.

My Dad did some canny buying a while back and purchased some of the rarest whisky in the world. He’s now offering them online to all those who appreciate a good 36 year old Murray McDavid. All of them are brand new, never opened, still in their boxes.

The reserve prices are the lowest market value, all ranging from £150 – £300.

So here’s a list of everything currently on ebay – click on the image to take you to that auction.

The rarest is the Murray McDavid Glenrothes 1968
bottle 177 of only 300!

Murray McDavid – Macallan 1969
Bottle 792 of 900

Due to a fault with ebay, which is an entirely different story, this is the only one that doesn’t have worldwide postage on the listing, however we will post worldwide.

Murray McDavid Caperdonich 1968
Bottle 467 of 500
