<p><a href="http://www.jetpacksandrollerskates.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/skitch-jetpacksandrollerskates.jpg"></a>I stumbled upon a great tool to work your designs over with clients. The program has been out for awhile but I haven&#8217;t really gotten to using it until recently. That piece of software is called <a href="http://www.skitch.com/">Skitch</a>.</p>
<p>As a web designer sometimes I don&#8217;t want to boot up <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/?promoid=BPDEK">adobe photoshop</a>, point out items on a graphic and then re-save it and send it off. Skitch is not a very intensive program so it boots up in a second, you edit what your crap then drag and drop it directly from the program into something like your email, desktop or whatever. I feel this is a great tool to communicate certain items with your clients quick and easily. All the is for low low price of <a href="http://skitch.com/signup">FREE!</a> (click to signup)</p>
<p>WAIT there&#8217;s more! (as those sales types say) and I don&#8217;t feel like I can explain it as well as the good people over at <a href="http://www.skitch.com">Skitch</a> can so if your interested check out the <a href="http://www.skitch.com/">3min video on the website.</a> (look at the very bottom of the page)</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Downfall: </strong><span style="color: #000000;">No Windows version. Only <a href="http://skitch.com/signup">Mac</a></span><span style="color: #000000;"><strong> </strong>(if you click here you will go straight to the sign up page)</span></span></p>

So, i decided to approach <a href="http://www.darrenkitchen.net/">Darren Kitchen</a>, one of the hosts of the show (<a onclick="return trackEvent('Show Page', 'Host Link - shannon-morse', 'hak5');" href="http://revision3.com/host/shannon-morse">Shannon Morse</a> co-hosts along side with Darren) in the Revision3 live chat.</p>

<p>Darren first set me on the task to drawn the entire cast of Hak5 along with some show mascots: <a href="http://www.hak5.org/store">WIFI Pineapple</a> and <a href="http://www.hak5.org/store">Network Monkey</a> (my illustrations were used for the intro of <a href="http://www.hak5.org/episodes/">Season 6</a>). My second task was to create both a background and postcard for promotional uses. Finally Darren approached me not knowing what he was going to do for the Season 7 graphics. So, we scraped together a concept and I did the vector graphics for him you can see them on the <a href="http://www.hak5.org/episodes/">upcoming episodes</a> of Hak5.</p>
