The Mind Of OverlordTomala

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.

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

It seems the news has broken over at Kotaku.

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!
