Twodded - a more detailed look

Posted on July 17th, 2005 in

Twodded Kid - Have you been Twodded yet?

Nearly a week after Twodded was released to the public, everything seems to be going well :) Not only have we expanded our staff team with raenef (CSS/XHTML guru) and Masak0 (Photoshop guru), but our existing staff are already pumping out the quality tutorials for you guys to read.

We currently have over 20 people on-trial to be staff for Twodded, but of course only the guys YOU select to be worthy from the trialers get onto the team..

Heres a big list of tutorials we have added to the site (from launch to now):

That caps off the Twodded update this time round :) You might also be pleased that we have begun to look at converting the Twodded layout (leading possibly onto the Pixel2life layout also) into a CSS based layout with XHTML strict standards. raenef of course will be helping with this and we are looking at the practicality of it.

Oh, and on a final note, you should see all of Fakens tutorials moved over to Twodded in the near future (his Corel tutorials that is, not Slicing Guide..)
