Something about the 2000’s Ads was just captivating!
I still try to search for brands that might still use this kind of marketing in their Ads, seems like a lost type of advertising nowadays.
Here's a little collage I made of old Urdu adverts and posters from 1930s-1970s Pakistan (and colonial India)!
There's also a really funny intro to a short story, titled "Gunah" or "Sin." I think it's meant to be a "sexy story" but I was never able to find the rest of the page.
I stumbled upon it again. Cool to see marketing from my great great grandparents' time!
I can’t find the Creator and i am mad about it because i wanna credit the one who made sure to put this for free.
I’ve found this website RetroPrint where they show the details of how you can make a Windows 95 customised theme on your phone (with over 800 icons app to choose from 27 of them are already made for the modern apps like netflix twitter etc - some graphics for the widgets too And 3 sounds.)
If there is one style that literally calms me is stippling.
The endless dots, the slow process, the nuance effect, the final results.
I just love it and appreciate it even more when i spend hours/days to finish one.
The fact that i can stay in bed warm with my phone or laptop and music in the background as i watch my favourite movies/series/youtube vids with a warm tea is simple enough to make me grateful for wherever i am today.
Worrying about what I should wear to work is a beautiful thing because it’s a privilege that sadly some people can’t afford :(
Complaining about to cook is a beautiful thing because someone somewhere sadly can’t even afford/have access to a simple bread piece.
Literally feeling the warmth of the sun while standing waiting for the bus is a beautiful thing to cherish and be grateful for.
