FULL PAGE SCREENSHOTS
Thanks for this great find Tyler Wolff –
Ever wanted to take a full page screen shot of a website you love? I know I’m always wishing there was a simple way to do just that. When I find a site that inspires me I normally end up with a bunch of mismatched screenshots all from a single page and this makes it hard to get a grasp of how the full page flows, not to mention the mess of screenshots I’m left with.
Luckily, I recently stumbled upon a browser extension called Awesome Screenshot that is the perfect solution for capturing full page screenshots. Available for both Safari and Chrome (firefox coming soon…), this simple extension really makes taking screenshots a breeze. Here’s what it looks like:
How To
Browse to a page that you want to capture, and click the small lens icon in the menu bar. You can take a standard screenshot of the window or choose to grab the full page. Once you choose, the page is captured and then you are free to do what you will with the screenshot.
What’s also cool about this extension is that it allows you to make annotations on the screenshot from within the browser. You can even blur sensitive information right then and there.
Capture Options
Once you’ve captured the page and made your annotations, you are shown the page below. You can share the screen shot via services like twitter and email. However, you can also instantly share the screenshot online via www.awesomescreenshot.com.

HUF 2011 Fall Lookbook
I love this concept for the latest HUF lookbook. Taking more of a creative approach with the help of LA-based collective taps photographer Brian Kelley for a bit of vintage-style flair, with appearances from Luke Clerkin, Caleb Weiss, Emilio Cuilan, Joey Pepper and Thane Wright. Fall 2011 is now available via Hufworldwide.com, as well as select retailers worldwide.
STOP THE WATER WHILE USING ME
Stop the Water While Using Me is a German brand of all-natural cosmetics predicated on a mutual promise. The consumer stops the water while using the products, the producers don’t use artificial ingredients, animal testing or waste energy during production. The line includes a variety of different products, including body lotion, but focuses on the places where people waste the most water, like washing hair and washing hands. Stop the Water While Using Me excludes ingredients like mineral oils, paraffin and silicone. It contains no synthetic fragrances and is packaged in minimalist, re-fillable bottles. The line doesn’t skimp on smell, though, with strong natural fragrances like rosemary grapefruit and sesame sage. It can be found at colette, or online via Stop-the-water-while-using-me.com.
Can’t wait to see the Master tonight in Hong Kong!
This will be the fourth time I’ve seen him live. If you’re reading this Scuddy. Remember the first time we saw him and went straight to work Monday morning after his gig on zero sleep? Hahaha

New Zealand All Blacks: all heroes

Androp ‘Bell’ Interactive Music Video
Japanese band, Androp, breaks out from the mold with an interactive music video for their single ‘Bell’. Created by creative company, Party, listeners are given an opportunity to be part of the music video as they play the game.
Found at the Androp site, you are able to create an animal, which varies from a rabbit to an elephant depending on the number of words you type in, that you control to dodge oncoming obstacles.
Beautifully illustrated with simple black and white graphics, each time you knock into an obstacle, a letter of your message changes. Thus you’re challenged to make sure your message stays intact, while the band’s song plays in the background.
Have a go at it here.
