Netdiver Mag is in lalaland. In the wee hours of November 5 there was a freak accident which sent our server into limbo.
Due to major server meltdown and unprecedented data corruption, Netdiver Mag site is out of order until all content is restore. Working on the double to fix it.
We miss you. Can’t wait to be back.

Redesign from top to bottom of the Design Made in Germany (Dmig) — founded by Christian Hartmann — website which offers jobs, featured projects, a blog and a magazine. A thriving community is contributing meaningful comments.
The black on white grid is successfully incorporating complex information that could easily be overwhelming.

Also interesting is the Dmig online magazine format with nice functionalities as sharing (hidden behind the heart in a round) and transparent sections that work as seperator between previous and following article.

Uppercase (luv-luv-luv the logo) is all about books and papergoods. Vibrant blog covering all above and the makers of such. An online store too. The space is a design studio and doubles up as a gallery. It is home to the gorgeous printed mag of same name. Running under the bright direction of Janine Vangool, she steadily plows her way. And her way, can only be up.
Really admire what she has been building over the years. Can’t wait to see what else, she enterprises.

The new Creative & Live website is astonishingly beautiful and highly functional yet retaining a very minimalist grid and white interface with black fonts and accents. They cover photography, design, advertising and illustration.
Hats off!

Found this (circa 2000) Netdiver index splash page screenshot. To those who have been following since then, or prior, this may pop a rapid eye visit down our communal memory lane. Version 5.2.. Oh my, happy to have come a long way. Those were the days.. no regrets.
Do you remember that?
