Animated Penguin cards, online

icedudes (the little penguin dudes) started life back in 1999 helping me promote my design skills to the world through my online portfolio.

Then in 2002 they were spotted by the American artist 'Wendy L'Belle' (famous for her 'Ugly Little Bitch' brand). She persuaded me to turn them into animated ecards for her online greetings card website, where they enjoyed great popularity for many years.

Later in 2004 icedudes.com was born, giving the little dudes their very own place to hang out. I designed the website with the customer in mind, wanting to offer them a great site with free ecards and a members' area with stuff like birthday reminders, address books and much more...

The site averages 2,000 visits per month from over 162 countries, with 60% of the traffic coming from the United States.
