On February 5th and 6th, the LA Drupal User group held it's first Drupal for Design camp. I had posted on this topic a while ago and now that the event has finally passed, here are my thoughts:

John Romine did a fantastic job setting up the wireless network. Absolutely no issues during my time there.
The presentation by Aaron Stanush on the state of web typography was very well done (mine, in hindsight was somewhat rushed :()
The HTML5/SVG presentation by Mike Stewart was very inspirational and I have some ideas stuck in my head on things that could be done with it.
The presentation on Drupal Grok theming by Laura Scott has made me seriously think about giving D7 theming a workout.
The case study by Sheena Donnely which turned into a skinr presentation was awesome (skinr could be very useful for the projects I've worked on).
I wish I could have seen Ishmael's presentation on why my design sucks as a Drupal theme ^_~
Todd Ross gave some wonderful tools that could be used for project / shop management.
Eating from a food truck was an awesome treat :D

Big props go out to the real volunteers (I volunteered but did close to nothing ^_~) and especially the presenters for taking the time to educate and talk about Drupal and Design.
