Through much debate on how the Facebook‘s Face Uplift was horrible, unorganized and looks ugly. I beg to differ. I was attracted to the Facebook uplift and thought that it was better than the unorganized, application-filled profile page. Though people are still getting used to the uplift, Facebook has recently announced that it, will once again, do another uplift. Seen on the photo above, it will have a better sense of organization, it got rid of the iconic blue bar at the top, and they apparently went away with the multiple paged Facebook and just put them all together into one page with everyone’s updates, posts, etc.
If you’re a fan of the Half-Life Series, chances are, you know the company Black Mesa. And if you’ve played Portal, you know all about it. As technology progresses and as the Source engine tightens, they decided it’s time to revisit the past. They planned on recreating the first ever Half Life story, how it happened, and put a deeper more stable story to go with it. A triler has already been released but the unveiling hasn’t been… yet.
Here’s th trailer (watch it in HD if you can):
It is basically the first ever Half Life game with better graphics and gameplay.
Ever wondered what cartoons look like in REAL life? Then say no more! Mr. Pixeloo has done just that – creating masterpieces of cartoons brought to life – in a creepy kind of way.
I have been admiring Pixeloo’s works for a long time now and, just recently, I stumbled onto his YouTube account where he showed the very making of this magnificent untooning. Here’s the video:
His process of work starts from using a reference picture then layering tons of other reference pictures on top of it.
Another actress who assumed the role of Jessica Rabbit was Heidi Klum:

Looking at Graffiti works on Facebook came to the discovery of the very Mr. Pixeloo himself. An artwork he featured on his blog showed up on Graffiti and I’m sure that this is him as his art style is the same. Check out the work on his blog here that’s similar to the Graffiti he drew here. I can now tell you that Mr. Pixeloo has definitely a name: Mr. Alex Rodriguez. (SEE EDIT BELOW)
[EDIT: 05/21/2010]:
I quickly assumed without confirming. Mr. Alex Rodriguez may have been simply copying Mr. Pixeloo’s works as I have found substantial evidence that Mr. Rodriguez is NOT Pixeloo – Pixeloo’s Twitter account states that Mr. Pixeloo’s real name is Jan Pixeloo. Also, I have found Mr. Pixeloo’s DeviantArt account!
