I’ve worked on a lot of online projects and campaigns, and such commercial projects have probably been seen by a million, maybe more people.
However, my single most successful piece of work is this animated gif:
I shit you not. I used adobe ImageReady, back in 2001, to make a “spur of the moment” smiley (or emoticon) for the now defunct were-here forums. Since then I’ve seen it adopted by a ton of forums, sites and blogs… Bastardized in different sizes, colors, with additions (hair, bracelets whatever)… Just do a couple image searches:
google/images “buttrock”
google/images “headbangk”
It’s always a pleasure to bump into it.
A non-tech friend of mine from Lebanon once contacted me over MSN, and his avatar was… buttrock, said he got it from his little cousin.
I’ve seen a website promote it printed on a t-shirt. (I’ll try to find the link).
Here’s a two more of my smileys, needless to say less popular than good ol’ buttrock:
<- Yarrrrr… I’m surprised this one isn’t the popular one 
<- this one has made the rounds
If you spot buttrock, lemme know 
Enough about smileys.
…I will add more accomplishments as they sporadically surface into my corrupted cranium. Stay tuned.
