The Best Of Banksy Animated Into Incredible GIFs

The Best Of Banksy Animated Into Incredible GIFs | Startup Revolution | Scoop.it

Photoshop 'wizard' ABVH out of Serbia has taken some of the recently highlighted works of Banksy while he was in New York City and transformed them into absolutely incredible and hypnotizing animated GIFs on his Tumblr.

Marty Note
I lifted ABVH's animation for our Curagami (http://www.Curagami.com) cover to our 10 Social Marketing Lessons From Banksy and couldn't remember where I found the great animated Gif. HuffPost to the rescue and thanks to ABVH for such amazing talent.

What Stuff Do You Miss? - Set New Trends By Sharing Old Ones [cool idea]

What Stuff Do You Miss? - Set New Trends By Sharing Old Ones [cool idea] | Startup Revolution | Scoop.it
Set new trends by knowing the old ones
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

Open With A Question

A friend, Brian Chiou @Brian_Chiou, just shared his http://www.imissthisshit.com/ website where visitors share stuff we miss like these green army men, GI Joe and Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots. 

Great example of the power of a question in website design too. When the site opens asking why you miss your mind can't help but begin to answer. I suggested Brian make his call to action bigger, and more like a button with high contrast. 

It is easy to walk right by the Share What You Miss CTA (upper left in text). Bet a GREEN button would outperform the gold text, but I love the placement. Hard to beat upper left CTA placement especially in a Pinterest inspired design like this.

Learning Business Leadership Lessons From The Superheroes | Startup Revolution | Scoop.it
Your favorite superhero has the power to save your business too. It's time for the business owners to take lessons from superheroes, and implement them in order to achieve success.
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

Love this post about how each Superhero knew their core skills set, weaknesses and played to the one while avoiding the other not unlike Internet marketing and Internet marketers :). M

Great idea, and good way to get the point across that you should always know your strengths and try to develop your weaker areas.

The 198x Vietnamese generation (in their early 30s now) grew up with Tsubasa, Teppi, Dragon Balls, Doraemon, TKKG. Mostly about friendship &  hardworking spirit than super hero.

 

Quote from article: "Do you remember spending sleepless nights as a kid, reading your favorite superhero comic books? If you do, then you might also remember that “giving up” is not what the superheroes teach us. Well, no one is going to get a neutron laser or an indestructible shield for sure! However, there are some effective and invaluable lessons every business owner can learn from his favorite superhero, and implement them on the business battlefield."
