CNY, or Chinese New Year, one of the most important festival in this Asian part of the world is just around the corner. This can only mean one thing for us in designing - lot's of bright, red color, flowers and rodent motif. Rodent, since it's the year Rat. To combine tradition chinese designs with rats can pose somewhat of a challenge. In the end, we fall back on Chinese paper cutting of rats for inspiration. Bingo!

By chance really. Searching for a suitable image for a new web design, I googled for "green wave" and found an image from Dreamstime. What stuck me most was the abundance of superior quality vector images available here.

In the end, the web design with the green wave and all was accepted for implementation. Which also means we had to buy the image. So, a paper had to be put up to convince the bosses that we need a Dreamstime account. Yeah, we do. And that's how we ended up here. A shared account, no doubt but still, it is satisfying to the inner designer in me to have access the the stock of good quality images.
