*You all know I am crazy about Pugly Pixel Clip Art. Well, the girl behind Pugly Pixel happens to be a super cool chic with many talents. So, I was thrilled when Katrina agreed to interview today! Thank you so much for letting us get to know you better!*
In 5 words, describe Katrina: easy breezy beautiful cover girl. Just kidding -- I've been watching a lot of America's Next Top Model. Did you know that there are ANTM marathons on Saturdays?
When someone asks you about what you do for a living, how do you describe it? I maintain websites, but mostly these days, I simply follow the fun and try earnestly to follow my enthusiasms.
What got you to start blogging?
In college, I applied for a job on campus. It was a programming job and I thought I had it in the bag because I had a lot of computer science theory under my belt. But they were looking for someone Net-savvy, someone adept in the latest (latest at the time, anyway) Web 2.0 technologies, which revolves around social networking communities, blog platforms, and such, none of which were really familiar to me. After failing the interview miserably, I decided that the best way to learn about Web 2.0 would be to immerse myself in a lot of social networking communities (blogging, Flickr, Twitter etc). The best side effect of that failed interview was blogging, which has been my creative outlet. The blog has also opened doors for friendships with like-minded people.
You are constantly spoiling us readers with free downloads and resources. What sites do you turn to for inspiration? Most of my inspiration for the freebies come from the world of print media and stationery. I take note of simple and effective magazine layouts. Japanese craft books are another source of inspiration.

Your favorite way to unwind on the weekends: America's Next Top Model marathons. I love Mr. Jay. Mostly, though, I enjoy watching transformations and the make up artists on that show really deserve more credit. Oh, and when I'm not watching ANTM, I'm usually chuckling at the cooky antics of my pups, Taco and Chico.
