whew, it's done. here it is - the winter special, formerly known as "autumn issue", formerly known as "summer issue" ;-).
if you wonder why it took more than 6 month to complete this update, then let me explain in a few words what happened in the meantime; i've been in holidays for 3 weeks, have some work to do (you know: earning money..), completed some free projects and played around with the tools to get my mind free for new ideas.
there are some things left which i have not completed until now like the "robokit"-font, my second commercial typeface "girl" and the first issue of the 72dpi mag. but eyesaw is updated again and i think there's enough stuff to keep you busy for a while, so that i can find the time to do some other things.
rock on and let me know if the sun is shining
