<p>Meu freela do momento é a criação de vários patterns para um livro. Como eu não tenho muita experiência com  seamless patterns, pesquisei na internet tutoriais que ensinassem a criá-los de modo simples no illustrator. Achei várias dicas legais no blog do <a href="http://joaofaraco.com.br/" target="_blank">João Faraco</a> (ele também escreve no <a href="http://www.caligraffiti.com.br/" target="_blank">caligraffiti</a>) e para testá-las fiz uma <strong>estampa de porquinhos</strong> (claro, hehe). Depois de terminar meus testes decidi colocar a brincadeira final aqui para download, para quem quiser usar como background do twitter <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Escolha sua cor preferida!</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">I’m developing a set of seamless patterns for a book. Since I don’t have a lot of experience with this matter, I browse the internet for tutorials that teached how to easily create them. I found some cool tips at joão faraco’s <a href="http://joaofaraco.com.br/" target="_blank">blog</a> (he also writes for <a href="http://www.caligraffiti.com.br/" target="_blank">caligraffiti</a>) and to test them I did a <strong>pig pattern</strong> (of course). After I finished this test I decided to share the result here as a freebie. Feel free to pick your favorite color and use it as a twitter background.</span></p>

<p>Fazia tempo que eu não curtia tanto uma rede social! O <a href="http://dribbble.com/shots/popular/" target="_blank">dribbble</a> é uma espécie de twitter para designers e ilustradores, onde em vez de<em> tweets</em>, você posta <em>shots</em> (pequenos previews do projeto no qual você está trabalhando no momento &#8211; leia mais sobre o site <a href="http://webinsider.uol.com.br/2011/01/28/o-modelo-da-dribbble-rede-social-para-designers/" target="_blank">aqui</a>). Eu amo ver processos criativos, então adorei o site. Mas o maior diferencial é a qualidade do pessoal que está no dribbble. A rede social consegue manter um nível fantástico, praticamente tudo que você vê lá é de cair o queixo. Eu fui drafted pelo Herson Rodriguez (<a href="http://dribbble.com/HersonRodriguez" target="_blank">Thanks Hero!</a>) e agora descolei um convite para arrastar alguém para lá também. Se você é designer e/ou ilustrador, gosta de mostrar seu processo de criação e é a fim de ganhar um invite, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;"><strong>avisa aqui nos comentários</strong>, que até sexta eu escolho alguém para convidar <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">It’s been a while since I got this excited about a social network. <a href="http://dribbble.com/shots/popular/" target="_blank">Dribbble</a> is like twitter for designers and illustrators, but instead of <strong>tweets</strong> you post <strong>shots</strong> (small screenshots of the designs you are working on). I love seeing making ofs, so I immediately loved the site. But the biggest differential is the awesomeness of the images, almost everything posted over there is jaw dropping. I was drafted by Herson Rodriguez (<a href="http://dribbble.com/HersonRodriguez" target="_blank">Thanks Hero!</a>) and now I received an invite do draft a new player! If you are a designer or illustrator, enjoy showing your creative process and want an invite, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">just mention it here at the comment box. By friday I’ll choose someone to invite. <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></span></p>
<p>Edit: Draft already made! I&#8217;ll let you guys know when I score a new invitation.</p>

<p>No ano passado recebi uma proposta muito legal de um ex-colega de faculdade: <strong>fazer a capa do livro </strong>que a mãe dele estava escrevendo. Para deixar o projeto mais interessante ainda, o livro era sobre mulheres e suas aflições de ordem cotidiana, emocional e principalmente espiritual. Os textos da escritora eram muito inspiradores, nem preciso dizer que adorei fazer esta ilustração <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Preparei para os queridos leitores deste blog um making of bem completo de<strong> todo o processo</strong>. <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/?p=2001" target="_self">Clique aqui para ver o post completo.</a> #vemgente! <strong>(Tem sorteio de um exemplar do livro! <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> )</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">Last year a former college colleague invited me to<strong> create the cover</strong> for his mother book. To make the project even more interesting, the book was about women, the emotional, daily and spiritual afflictions of them. The texts were great, I had an awesome time making this illustration <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I prepared a making of for the <strong>whole process </strong>for my dear blog readers. <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/?p=2001">Click here and check out the full post</a>!<strong> (+ a book giveaway at the end of the post! <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> )</strong></span></p>
<p>Edit:<strong> Sorteio encerrado! </strong>Quem tirou a sorte no <span style="text-decoration: underline;">random.org</span> foi a querida <strong>Giuliane Ramos</strong>!</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><span id="more-2001"></span></strong></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-858" title="line2" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="3" /></p>
<h2><strong>The briefing</strong></h2>
<p><em>&#8220;Mulheres &#8211; suas aflições de ordem cotidiana, emocional e principalmente espiritual. São contos e relatos reais e ficcionais de mulheres &#8220;nascidas&#8221; no Caminho de Santiago de Compostela, na Espanha, peregrinas do caminho e da vida. Como tema secundário há o caminho como um espelho onde elas fazem um encontro consigo mesmas. Sem restrição de cores, com preferência a cores sóbrias e/ou elegantes. Gosto também de elementos estilizados e abstratos, da imagem de uma espiral representando o caminho interior &#8211; setas também podem indicar caminhos. A ilustração deve refletir a personalidade enigmática  da escritora, sempre se questionando, na busca frenética por uma identidade própria.&#8221; </em>(Resumo do texto enviado pela própria autora)</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;"><em>&#8220;Women , their afflictions of the daily life, emotional and spiritual. The book is about fictional and real stories. It&#8217;s about women &#8220;born&#8221; in Santiago de Composta, Spain, pilgrims of life. As a second theme there&#8217;s the path itself, a mirror were women experience an encounter with themselves. There are no color restrictions, but I prefer the sober and elegant ones. I like the idea of a spiral representing the inner path, arrows can also symbolize paths. The atmosphere of the book should reflect the author&#8217;s enigmatic personality, always questioning herself, in a frantic search for a true identity.&#8221; (an abbreviation of a text written by the author).</em></span></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-858" title="line2" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="3" /></p>
<h2>The epigraph</h2>
<p>Na epígrafe do livro, fornecido junto com o briefing, já encontrei elementos interessantes que poderiam ser utilizados na capa:<br />
<em> Gotas do barro fundo / Garatujas / Asas de sombra e lume<br />
E pelo caminho planto palavras / Caracóis do meu pensamento<br />
E em cada viagem / Chego mais perto das estrelas</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">On the book&#8217;s epigraph, given to me with the briefing, I could find interesting elements that could be used on the cover:<br />
</span><span style="color: #ada382;">Drops of deep clay/ scribblings / Wings of shadow and light<br />
</span><span style="color: #ada382;">And by the way I plant words / My thoughts spirals<br />
</span><span style="color: #ada382;">And on each journey / I get closer to the stars</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-858" title="line2" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="3" /></p>
<h2>The brainstorm</h2>
<p>Antes de iniciar uma marca, uma ilustração, um anúncio, gosto de elencar alguns conceitos e palavras que se encaixam com o projeto. Isso é bom parar auxiliar na criatividade, mas também ajuda a manter o foco e a coerência com o briefing. Eu já havia feito <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/blog/making-of/" target="_blank">algo parecido</a> na criação do blog da minha irmã.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">Before starting a logo, an illustration or an ad, I like to list some concepts and words that fits the project. This is great to help the creation, but also to keep the focus on the project&#8217;s briefing. I did something similar on my sister&#8217;s blog <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/blog/making-of/" target="_blank">making of</a>.</span></p>
<p><strong><img title="palavras" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/palavras.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="338" /></strong></p>

<h2><strong>The visual alphabet</strong></h2>
<p>Comentei uma vez <a href="http://www.twitter.com/carolrivello" target="_blank">no meu twitter</a> sobre uma técnica de criação que <a href="http://www.twitter.com/reneemelo" target="_blank">uma amiga</a> havia me ensinado. No estúdio que ela trabalhava eles chamam este método de criação de alfabeto visual, que é associar vários conceitos à marca, campanha ou ilustração a ser desenvolvida, e então depois traduzir estes conceitos em signos, e elaborar uma espécie de alfabeto visual para todo o projeto. O legal desta tecnica, é que a ilustração criada não tem função somente de embelezar o produto, mas tem todo um significado por trás. E além disso, ao criar este alfabeto você faz uma composição mais elegante e personalizada.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">I <a href="http://www.twitter.com/carolrivello" target="_blank">tweeted</a> a while ago about a creativity technique that my friend used. On the study that she worked, they called this method &#8220;visual alphabet&#8221;, that it&#8217;s connecting the brand, campaign or illustrations concepts to symbols, and elaborate a sort of a visual alphabet for the whole project. The cool thing about this technique is that the illustration created isn&#8217;t only ornamental, but has a whole meaning behind it. The final result is a more elegant and meaningful composition.</span></p>

<h2><strong>The inspiration</strong></h2>
<p>Ao invés de ir procurar na internet por inspiração para este projeto, preferi largar o computador e ir na minha coleção de livros. Eu folheei o livro &#8220;<strong>O poder dos limites</strong>&#8220;, que fala sobre harmonia e proporção na natureza e me abasteci de ideias e conceitos legais para aplicar na ilustração.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">Instead of going to the interwebs to find inspiration for this projects, I browse my books for inspiration. I read the &#8220;<strong>The power of limits</strong>&#8221; a book about proportional harmonies in nature, art, and architecture and I was fueled with ideas for a abstract illustration.</span></p>

<h2><strong>The roughs</strong></h2>
<p>Antes de iniciar o rascunho final, eu fiz alguns estudos livres, sem compromisso:</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">Before starting the final rought, I made some studies, check them out:</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2068" title="rascunho01" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/rascunho01.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="384" /></p>

<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2070" title="rascunho03" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/rascunho03.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="384" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-858" title="line2" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="3" /></p>
<h2><strong>The final sketch</strong></h2>
<p>Procurei fazer uma arte bem feminina e orgânica, para remeter às mulheres e à natureza. A busca espiritual e por uma identidade própria são representados pelos espirais e pelas mandalas concêntricas. Esses círculos concêntricos também foram feitos pensando nas garatujas, que são citadas na epígrafe. Lá ela também fala de estrelas e luz e sombra, que procurei retratar de forma mais abstrata. (círculos brancos e pretos) Por fim, os arabescos representam os caminhos e histórias, e os caracóis do pensamento. As texturas que usei nas formas não são aleatórias: os triângulos simbolizam a parte mais primitiva e inicial do caminho. Os caracóis representam a etapa de reflexão do caminho. E a flor de lótus, no centro da mandala, representa a paz, harmonia e o encontro consigo mesma. Mas chega de explicar muito, porque o interessante também é cada um olhar e interpretar do seu jeito. <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;">I made a very feminine and organic art, alluding to women and nature. The spiritual and identity quest are represented by the spirals and concentric mandalas. These circles were also made thinking about the scribbles, cited on the epigraph. She also writes about stars, light and shadow, that I portrayed abstractly (white and black circles). The arabesques represents tue paths and histories, the &#8220;deep thoughts spirals&#8221;. The textures used are not random: the triangles symbolizes the initial and primitive part of the journey. The  spirals represent the reflection. And the lotus flower, at the center, represents the peace, harmony and self encounter. But enough of rationalization, because the interesting part is everyone making it&#8217;s own interpretation. <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></span></p>

<h2>The colors</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;">Antes de colorir, desenvolvi algumas paletas para aprovar com a escritora. Sendo uma ilustração complexa, vale a pena conversar e aprovar as cores antes de pintar, pois alterar posteriormente pode dar um trabalhão!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;">Bellow some colors schemes I developed to aprove with the author. Being a complex illustration, I advise talking about and approving the colors before painting it, because changing the palette later can be a lot of work!</span></span></p>

<h3>Eba, tem sorteio nesse post! Mais detalhes no final do texto! (update: sorteio encerrado <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> )</h3>
<p>Como prometido, eis o post com a <strong>decoração e designs</strong> que preparei para o casamento. Eu inventei tanta coisa! E se tivesse dado mais tempo, teria bolado mais coisinhas ainda. Ficou curioso? Então clica em &#8220;<a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/blog/wedding-pics-and-tips/">continuar lendo</a>&#8221; pra saber como transformar um orçamento apertado em um casamento fofo e divertido. (E espiar algumas fotos no final do post)</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><strong>Yay, there&#8217;s a giveaway at the end of this post » Check it out.</strong> As promised, here&#8217;s the post with the decorations and designs I did for my wedding. I created a bunch of cute stuff! And if I had more time, I would had come up with tons more. Curious? Click &#8220;<a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/blog/wedding-pics-and-tips/">continue reading</a>&#8221; to discover how to make a <strong>cute and fun low budget wedding</strong>. (Plus some pics!)</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span id="more-1829"></span></span>Minha primeira dica para um casamento<strong> cool e baratinho</strong> é » crie uma identidade visual: facilita muito planejar a decoração após selecionar um tema para a festa. Outra dica para economizar é escolher as flores da estação e da região. O dia e horário da cerimônia e festa interfere muito no orçamento final: que tal fazer a festa no domingo, e durante o dia? Celebrar a cerimônia e a festa no mesmo local também ajuda bastante a poupar. Procure bem na sua cidade lugares bonitos e que não sejam mainstreams. Um lugar que não seja tão visado e badalado acaba ficando mais original e em conta.</p>
<p><strong>Caso o dimdim esteja apertado</strong>, evite bandas e DJ famosos. DJ&#8217;s muito populares costumam cobrar uma facada, e bandas boas mais ainda (o caché se multiplica pela quantidade de integrantes). Eu pedi ajuda a um colega e encontrei um DJ bem legal e acessível. Para ajudá-lo, eu e o Thomas criamos uma playlist quilométrica e um briefing das músicas que a gente gostava. Para a cerimônia, chamamos um casal que descobrimos num café aqui de Floripa. Ouvimos a dupla cantando beatles perfeitamente e foi amor a primeira &#8220;escutada&#8221;.</p>
<p>Sei que é difícil, mas chame somente as pessoas muito próximas e familiares. O maior investimento do casamento é o buffet, então a matemática é simples: quanto mais gente você chamar, mais cara a festa ficará. <strong>Chamar poucas pessoas foi sem dúvida a tarefa mais difícil de todo o planejamento</strong>, ainda mais com palpites vindo de todos os lados. Mas no final das contas um casamento mais íntimo e só com pessoas bem próximas é muito especial e vale a pena o esforço.</p>
<p>Faça você mesmo! Que tal bolar suas próprias lembrancinhas, montar alguns itens de decoração e guardar <strong>vasinhos reciclados para as flores?</strong> Eu usei na decoração livros antigos e emprestados da minha mãe e irmã &#8211; deu um toque muito maneiro. Também usei vidrinho de leite de coco, de papinha de neném (valeu, lê!), de <strong>vinho</strong>, de perfume, latinhas de talco&#8230; Reciclei também porta retratos, que foram utilizados para espalhar <strong>recadinhos engraçados pelo ambiente</strong>.</p>
<p>Em vez de noivinhos de bolo super caros, usei uma ilustração minha impressa em papel mesmo, presa no bolo com palitinhos de churrasco! <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  Essa ideia, e tantas outras, <strong>encontrei vasculhando os sites legais de casamento que comentei no post anterior</strong>. Para a galera se divertir na festa fiz alguns balões de fala com frases engraçadas, máscaras com os rostos dos noivos e confettis. Tudo feito de papel, barato até dizer chega, e fugindo daquelas bugingangas e pisca piscas que ninguém aguenta mais.</p>
<p>Cara noiva moderna e nerd, <strong>use a Internet a seu favor</strong>: já pensou em entregar os &#8220;save the date&#8221; e convites somente online? Foi o que eu fiz &#8211; imprimi apenas alguns poucos convites, para pais, irmãos e padrinhos. Também criei um <strong>blog,</strong> com informações sobre lista de presente, mapa pra festa, dica de como ir vestido, etc. Aliás, até os presentes podiam ser comprados on-line.</p>
<p>Para o post não ficar enorme, procurei ser bem breve nas dicas. Se vocês tiverem alguma dúvida ou quiserem saber mais detalhes sobre algo, é só comentar aqui embaixo que eu respondo. É isso espero que tenham gostado! <strong>Agora vamos ao que interessa, vou sortear aqui entre os leitores do blog dois kits com alguns frufrus do casamento</strong>. (cada kit com 10 imas, 2 bottons, pacote de confetti, potinho de arroz, adesivos e tags para as cadeiras) Para participar basta comentar aqui embaixo falando<strong> &#8220;EU QUERO&#8221; e curtir minha <a href="http://www.fb.com/carolrivellopage" target="_blank">página no facebook</a>. </strong>Bem facinho! Sorteio no final da semana.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-858" title="line2" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/line2.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="3" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">My first tip to a cool and cute wedding is: create a visual identity » it helps to plan the decoration after deciding a theme for the party. Another tip to save money is to choose the flowers of the station and region. The day and hour of the ceremony also interferes with the final budget: how about making the party in a sunday, during the day? Celebrate the ceremony and the party at the same place also helps to save. Search for pretty places at your city and stay away from the mainstream spots. <strong>A place that isn&#8217;t so popular may be also nice and affordable.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><strong>If money is an issue</strong>, don&#8217;t hire fancy DJ&#8217;s or bands. Popular DJ&#8217;s will probably charge you a small fortune and cool bands even more. I asked one friend for help and found a nice affordable DJ. To help him, me and Thomas created a enormous playlist/briefing with the songs that we love. For the ceremony, we hired a couple that we discover at a café in our hometown. We listened to them performing beatles and it was <strong>love at first &#8220;hear&#8221;.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">This one is hard » <strong>invite only really really close friends and family.</strong> The biggest budget on a wedding is the buffet, so the math is simple: the more people you invite, the more expensive the party will be. Calling just a fell people was without a doubt the hardest task in all the planning, specially with all the interferences. But at the end of the day, a small intimate wedding with only people you are really close to is really special and it&#8217;s worth the trouble.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;"><strong>DIY!</strong> How about creating your own gifts, set up the decoration, collect recycled vases for the flowers? I used in the decoration old books I borrowed from my sister and mom, it gave a nice touch! I also used recycled glass bottles, old perfumes, baby food, wine&#8230; I used old photos frames as well, <strong>to place funny messages along the room. </strong></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;">Instead of pricy cake toppers, I used one of my illustrations, printed on paper, fixed on the cake with wood sticks. This idea, as so many others, <strong>I had while browsing trough the sites I suggested in the previous post.</strong> To entertain the folks at the dance floor, I did some comic ballons with funny frases, groom and bride masks and confettis. All made of paper, very cheap!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;"><strong>Dear nerdy bride</strong>, use the internet to your favor: have you thought about sending the &#8216;save the dates&#8217; and invites only via email? That&#8217;s what I did! I also created a blog for the wedding, with informations about the gifts, a google map, tips about the dress code, etc. Even the gifts could be purchased online.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;"><span style="color: #ada382;">To avoid an enormous post,  <strong>I tried to be brief in my tips.</strong> But if you have any doubts or wish to know more about something, let me know on the comment section, I&#8217;ll be glad to help. That&#8217;s it folks, I hope you liked the post. Now let&#8217;s get down to business! <strong>I&#8217;ll giveaway two kits with a few cute stuff from my wedding</strong>: 10 magnets, 2 bottons, 2 confetti packs, 2 rice mini pots, stickers and tags. To participate, you just have to shout &#8220;<strong>I WANT ONE</strong>&#8221; at the comment box bellow, and like my <a href="http://www.fb.com/carolrivellopage">facebook page</a>. Super Easy! Results this weekend.</span></span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-926" title="background_twitter_monster4" src="http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/background_twitter_monster4.jpg" alt="" width="606" height="316" /></p>
<p>Hoje decidi trocar o <strong>background do meu twitter </strong>por esse simpático monstrinho. Daí pensei: Ah, bem que eu podia disponibilizá-lo para download lá no blog também né? <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/goodies/carolrivello_bgtwitter_monster.jpg" target="_blank">Clica aqui</a> para fazer download do background! (Dica: para ver como ele fica aplicado, dá uma espiada no <a href="http://www.twitter.com/carolrivello" target="_blank">meu twitter</a>). Ah, e<strong></strong> se você ou sua empresa está querendo  uma  <strong>página do twitter personalizada e bem legal</strong>, já sabe quem chamar!</p>
<p><span style="color: #ada382;">Today I decided to change my twitter <strong>background image</strong>. And then I thought: Hey, I could share this treat as a giveaway in my blog! <a href="http://www.carolrivello.com/goodies/carolrivello_bgtwitter_monster.jpg" target="_blank">Click here</a> to download the background. And don&#8217;t forget: If you are looking for a cool and personalized twitter page for you or your company, you know who to call! <img src='http://www.carolrivello.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
</span></p>
<p><strong>Para a aplicação dele ficar certinha, aqui vão algumas dicas:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Mantenha a opção &#8220;tile background&#8221; desativada. Desta forma, a imagem vai ficar alinhada com o topo esquerdo da tela.</li>
<li>Escolha uma cor para o background que combine com a imagem usada. Que tal usar a mesma cor do fundo da ilustração?<strong> </strong>É essa aqui: <strong>#d0ce9b </strong></li>
<li>Selecione cores para os links e textos que combinem com a ilustração!</li>
</ul>
