Wow. I just blew my own mind a little bit. Of course image macros of the pope and Vatican should be on a website called The LOLy See. It cannot be any other way.

Heartbreaking Works of Staggering Fandom got off to a shaky start, and I'm going to keep things shaky by throwing out some honorable mentions in the music category before posting "fans ( Read more... )

It's embedded video time, folks. Yes, I actually did this for all four of Tom Dews' songs that we recorded, but the one embedded below is my favorite. Thanks for putting up with this!

If you want to play a pointless game, you can get both videos perfectly synchronized!

I haven't forgotten about the giants I promised, but there's something else to write about first!

I think I can clean up my video of questionable quality, but it'll take over an hour of processing time per miniDV tape. I wan't sure it'd be worth the effort to even try, but I threw some frame grabs up on Flickr and started asking around. So far, ( Read more... )

(2:43:05 PM) Sam Zeitlin: do you have a link to the google doc for wraiths and ruins?
(2:43:11 PM) Me on Google: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dfftf8dc_48gd7bsmgw
(2:43:13 PM) Sam Zeitlin: I promised buddha I'd look at it

Many of my gentle readers are removed from me by great distances, but a thanks to the power of the Internet and a pleasant confluence of events, you get to see and hear some of the people I hang with. Embedded below is footage of a convention that was held New Jersey this past weekend, which was attended by some folks I've grown rather fond of.

Okay, so I know I mentioned this last time, but I'd only ever pasted that text to the end of my videos before. I didn't try sticking "&fmt=18" onto other people's videos until today. Kurt Wiegel's RPG reviews really don't need the enhanced picture and sound, but it does show off the quality of Pugknows Productions' titling and graphic design work ( Read more... )

I'm still trying to find the words that will do justice to the middle of my Saturday at Gen Con. I'm not saying the game, or the experience, or my future post are the stuff of Soul-Crushing Gravitas™ (something which has only crept into my particular idiom once, I believe) - I just really enjoyed soaking up Major Wesely's knowledge before and ( Read more... )

Here's a few more reasons why I didn't go with Adobe's stuff for video: they write bloated software and they go out of their way to make their users jump through hoops. On the installation of Reader 9, Ben at MicroPledge says: But it wasn’t just a simple, ordinary download. First Adobe told me to download a Firefox plugin. I assumed the plugin ( Read more... )

Does this version:

I'd love to hear what you have to say about my color work.
