Speckyboy Design Magazine launched in October 2007, as the personal freelance web design homepage of Paul Andrew. Somewhere over the following months this site dramatically changed direction, and evolved into the great design resource magazine that you can currently see.

It is run by and most articles are written by Paul Andrew, a web designer and blogger, with the simple aim of offering readers the chance to learn and be inspired.
