Original place where I found it: Link.
That just looks too awesome. I hope this actually happens.
More nerding out.
So instead of playing anything tonight or working on any videos I ended up playing around in dreamweaver with a template for the main site. Much better than before. Trellian was a nice start, but Dreamweaver is more like working with a pen. I like the feel of it better.
I still think the site looks a tad empty, but I’m sure I’ll add more later.
Another hot one today!
Was supposed to be in the 60’s today but instead we’re almost at 80 with a bunch of wind. I’m sipping some limeade and running a kettle for more tea… go figure.
Fixed commenting.
For those of you who have been telling me that you have been getting a php error when commenting, I have fixed it by uninstalling the corrupted addon. Now when you go to post the error is gone.
Awesome combo!
I like Portal 2 and I like Ren and Stimpy. Combine the artwork with Portal 2 and you get this.
Something awesome I found looking over my news on steam.
I got bored so I added rotating taglines
Been meaning to play with something like this for awhile. Only bug I’ve seen with it so far is that it loads a different tagline in the browser tab. But that’s not critical.
A picture is worth a thousand words. But was it really worth $3999.95?
Being that I am a gamer, I get double lolz out of this post over at balloon-juice.
In memory of Andrew Breitbart who passed away not long ago. Patriot Depot had this picture up for sale. Oil painted on a canvas for a nice low price of $3999.95 each:
Majestic. I mean, he looks like he has baby hands but majestic. A few people did manage to purchase these too. But then it seems someone recognized the armor from a particular game.
So not only is it an expensive piece of photoshop, it’s also a copyright violation. People recognized the bit of armor and contacted Ubisoft. Not long after that the websites that promoted the picture were eventually taken down. Who would have guessed?
Update
Early Morning Open Thread
Weather was excellent yesterday, on my day off no less! Went out and got a little bit of sun. Went to the park, got an ice cream cone. Simplistic but good summer day. Then came home and did some photoshop and sourceSDK work (if you can’t tell by looking on the right at my steam card). Think I’ll save the premiere pro stuff for after work tomorrow evening.
There. One post where I don’t complain about anything!
Early Morning Open Thread
It seems I spent quite a bit of the early morning banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why a mdl wouldn’t compile properly after trying to add extra HL2 animations to it. Then out of boredom I check out garrysmod.org and find one with the animations I was trying to add…

Say apple!
Tonight I came home to an interesting article about the human brain and apple products.
In a recently screened BBC documentary, UK neuroscientists suggested that the brains of Apple devotees are stimulated by Apple imagery in the same way that the brains of religious people are stimulated by religious imagery.
People have often talked about “the cult of Apple”, and if a recent BBC TV documentary is to be believed, there could be something in it.
My friend Yutram and I once did a goof off podcast together where we talked about the religious symbolism of digital products (Microsoft, Linux, Mac etc) and at the time I thought figured Apple represented purgatory. Why purgatory? Because Steve Jobs never wanted you to leave his walled garden.
Steve Jobs sure trued to get people to take a bite out of that apple too…
