I forgot to go into this earlier: server outage (probably hardware) is causing my website to be unavoidably down for quite some time while we work on refurbishments/replacements/whatever dark purposes we intend to implement. This is hardly a crushing announcement, obviously, because it's not as though I maintain a lot of traffic, and it's actually ( Read more... )

There's blogging about something, and then there is making online databases of things. I blog about things that happen to me, occasional purchases, experiences, books I read - but I am cataloguing my books with LibraryThing, and I add artwork to my website and occasionally blog about things when I do so (few and far between, I'm afraid).

I'm not sure what to do about this: I like Livejournal because my friends are on it, because it's straightforward and yet accepts pretty goot html. At the same time, something like Wordpress is pretty much awesome in all respects, way more customisable, and can be integrated into my website or whatever as I like. Plus it's OSS and PHP (not that ( Read more... )

I've written a short story about a vengeful parrot. It is based on an article (Don't read it before the story!) I read a few days ago. Kind of inspired by the 'Revenge Tragedy' unit we're doing in Extension (1) English... thought I'd have some fun with it. Enjoy, criticism welcome.

Also, phear my CSS design! Imagemaps and layering! Go moi!

I forgot:
There's a link to a feed for my top 10 tracks as generated by Last.fm, and also to the latest ten OverClocked ReMixes, on my website.

I have created a new journal, cave_painting for random sketches and artworks not polished or pointful enough to go on my website, that I don't think you all want to see, but I have a need to organise so I can get feedback on them.

Feel free to friend it and comment, there won't be private entries so I probably won't get 'round to friending you back though.

Am slowly updating all the 'Art' pages of my website. It's taking forever though, so some are still in the old style, which I don't dislike - I just got bored with it. If anyone really liked the old ones... well, tough, but they still exist at the original links (I gave new locations to the new ones.) The "Art" page is still at the old URL though, ( Read more... )

Finally finished the damn thing... It's a little vague and random (I'm so sick of writing structured pieces I could write an essay about it.)

Anyway, there we are. I now have a review page with all of TWO things on it!
At this rate, to get any content, I shall have to write a review of every single thing I read/watch/do. Sigh.

For some reason, it took an excessively long time to put these pages together. Probably because of my terrible CSS, and frustration with trying to get a page together. I must say, at 1.1KB, my "Reviews" page is currently the smallest of the lot. I'm rather proud, actually - it's mostly because of tiling background images and such ( Read more... )

I put a shortish article on the website about the site itself. It's not terribly interesting, but the page looks nice. I'll follow it up with something more in-depth later, about the actual web-design and such.
