Our fellow Knights of the kingdom,

As some of you may have noticed, DK has been offline since Friday the 21st, last week. The reason for this is we have discovered some serious security holes that have made DK vulnerable.

As such, we have taken DK down for some mojo maintanance and upgrading which we cannot do while it’s online.

We ask for your patience and to keep checking back. We promise you when we’re back up, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the improved site.

In the meantime, please keep doing excellent design work that we can later share and profile on DK. If your an artist and feel your work is awesome enough to be our next featured artist, send us your portfolio to andrew@designkingdom.ug

And remember the Alamo!

The Design Kingdom Team.
