About ampersandbox:
<BR /><BR />
Ampersandbox is a project made for graphic designers to be creative without the <BR />
restraints of clients and classrooms, but within the parameters of an assignment.<BR />
Consider this your playground. A place to design and have fun doing it.<BR />
<BR />
Rules for play:<BR />
<BR />
1. New assignments will be posted every week.<BR />
2. All work must be submitted as .jpg or .gif format, 72 pixels, 640 x 480.<BR />
3. Your first four assignments are required, and must be submitted within a week of<BR />
receiving your invitation.<BR />
4. Once you have completed your four required assignments, you are welcome to<BR />
contribute to any past or future assignments, and at your own leisure.<BR />
<BR /><BR /><BR />
Ampersandbox was created by Marian Chiao as an independent-study project, instructed<BR />
by Simon Johnston, at Art Center College of Design, in the Fall of 2009. ";
echo '"Assignments"';
echo "<BR />
inspired by the community art project Learning to Love You More by artists<BR />
