This is absolutely amazing.

New Site Updates

Well, It’s been awhile since I’ve posted in my blog, and there are a number of changes to mention: Firstly, I’ve made my new website redesign live. I’m pretty happy with it. It’s using some ajax-y features, and some kludgy features, but overall I think it works. Look for more content soon, I need to put up my artwork. I particularly like the photolog section. Don’t miss the pixelog (on the left, roll over for zoomed-in versions), the random-thumbnail window up top, and other javascriptie eye-candy :).

I’ve switched my personally hosted blog from Blogger to Wordpress. Wordpress gives me more control over basically every aspect of my blog, and has a wonderful plugin/extention interface to let me or others further customize it.

I’ve also resolved to stop blogging directly on MySpace.. It’s far too annoying to deal with myspace’s limitations. I’ll crosspost on there just so people know I’ve blogged, but the main composition will be on here. People are more than welcome to subscribe to my RSS Feed though, so they don’t have to deal with myspace either ;).

In other, non-tech-related news, Jen and I just got back from Montreal. It was fun, we stayed in the old town and walked our butts off all over the city. Pictures to come soon!

too funny

Diesel Sweeties has some awesome t-shirts! a few of my favorites:

Check out the Comic too, it’s bizzarely hilarious ;)

Bah! Myspace won’t let me link to anchors (fucking hashes become ..’s!!) so you’ll have to scroll in the doc to find each shirt :P:P:P:P:P

Jewelry

I’ve just about finished my gardenia wax carving (finally). I’ll be sending to be cast as soon as I can find a good casting place and am really sure that it’s ready ;)

Here’s a couple pictures of what it looks like:

I’ve also started working on a celtic knot style star form that I doodled awhile back:

When these are cast, they’ll join my Heart Protector among some of my first ‘real’ jewelry ;) Here’s the heart protector if you haven’t seen it before:

It’s silver with galvanized steel chain mail mounted in the center.

Btw, MYSPACE SUCKS!!!!! ARRRRG I had to fight it for like 10 minutes to get this dam thing posted!!!! people shouldn’t use this crappy site! :P

Odds, Ends

ok so I was messing around the other day and finally got my webcam working in linux :) http://haven.loki.ws/joshcam/wc.html is the link.

Not alot new going on, still trying to decide about house(s). It’s been really hot and humid here the past few days, so that tends to stifle everything. Been reading Neal Stephenson’s Baroque Trilogy, which has been very good. Jen has become interested in deviantart.. check out her gallery, it’s got some really great stuff :) http://jmulcahy.deviantart.com
(mine is http://raynyskie.deviantart.com)

not much else going on I guess, at least nothing breathtakingly important to the rest of the world ;)
