I’ve made a couple tote bags before. They’re easy to make (with very few 3D parts) and surprisingly useful these days when the bulk of your outside trips that require a bag are only to the grocery store.

Livesurface is awesome
So I snagged a beta key to the new Livesurface Context layered image library, and I’ve been playing around with it (and Illustrator) all morning. First impressions: just so awesome. I love it.
