Layout Swap

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: news — admin @ 3:14 am

Finally, a layout change!

I don’t know how I feel about this, since it isn’t my normal style. I started playing around with the bevel and emboss tool on PS, so this is what I came up with. I probably will change it soon… or later, but it’s a change.

Also, there’s a new button up there labeled CHALK which doesn’t actually have a link. I haven’t finished the project yet, but when it’s done, I will inform you of when the link is ready. Basically, it’s a site for writers… but that’s all I am going to say.

I have exams soon, so it’s crunch time for the rest of my school stuff… and of course, I am making a new layout and working on a writing site, instead of doing my essay. What a bad student I am, eh?

(real original post title huh?)

one new blend + six icons (K. Beckinsale)

My Aunt, Uncle, and Grandma are out, and all they want to do is talk. All I want to do is do homework, and work on a new layout for this sucker. And a layout for my writing site that’s due to come out (hopefully) in the next month.

Stay tuned, a new look is coming your way.

2 new blends

First three days back at school and I want to kill myself. I have a presentation due in three weeks, and then another in two weeks. And then I have two essays due at the end of March (ish), which I pretty much have to start soon. And then I have to do an experiment which requires a lot of work – and it all has to be done by the end of March. The problem with that is I need subjects, and especially with class schedules, it’s hard to coordinate that. Plus, I need to find them! And, oh lordy-lo.

I was thinking about doing summer school, and then I laughed. The summer is my time, not school’s. But a quick update, one of the blends is desktop size (I made it for someone as a desktop).

I’m going to go watch Zombieland, and then sulkily do my Psychology notes.

OH CANADA!

CAAANNNAAAADDDAAA!

I don’t think Canada has witnesses patriotism like these past two weeks. It has been a wicked time, if the Olympics ever come to your city, you have to go. It is a once in a lifetime experience, and I am so damn lucky to have experienced it. All the athletes were superb, a big congrats to all of them, even the non-Canadians, but really.

If you didn’t catch the men’s gold medal hockey game last night, then you really missed the best moment of the Olympics. Not only did Canada win in overtime by Sydney Crosby, the Canadian prodigy, but Canada now holds the world record of gold medals at the winter olympics.

Even though I listened to the game on the radio at work, I showed my spirit and ran through PetSmart screaming that we won. And the really weird thing was that all of the people in the store just … stared at me, even though I said “WE WON GOLD.” They obviously weren’t feeling particularly patriotic. But, I almost cried I was so happy. Best moment ever.

I also saw Shutter Island last week. It’s a psychological thriller, so prepare to be psychologically thrilled. I’d give it a 8/10. I love Leonardo DiCaprio, so that’s why it is an eight. I can’t tell you too much about the movie because I’m going to spoil it. But it has Mark Ruffalo in it as well, and there are a bunch of flash backs that are kinda iffy, but overall, I thought it was worthwhile. So if you don’t like those kinds of movies, then maybe not.

A new layout change is coming, but I also have a bunch of stuff to do. So it may take a while.

And anyone else have anything to say about the Olympics? Did you watch them? What did you think?

Quickie.

1 new blend + 1 new banner

I know, it’s amazing. I updated. Btw, WP and I reconciled our differences…with the ease of plug-ins. More updates to come, I promise! Between my homework assignments and my own person quests to fulfill.

It’s just not my day.

Icons + news.

First off, Wordpress and I apparently still have a blood feud. I thought I would be awesome and update my WP to 2.9.1, like it was telling me, and to try and fix the fact that when you comment, you see my old layout. And in doing so, I managed to get WP telling me that I don’t need updates, as well as I NEED UPDATES, at the same time. And then, that I couldn’t upload a theme, and… well, it turned out in me deleting a few things, and having to re-download.

Wordpress ain’t so easy, really. I have two tutorials, and the stupid site telling me that it’s so easy to use. Yeah right.

Since the Olympics are here, for the next two weeks, I have school off. I am hoping to make some more graphics, organize my icons, and maybe have some more stuff in store for you guys. And sorry if I didn’t reply to your comments for the last post because obviously I had some troubles.

Oh, I also had the stomach flu for the past few days. Not so nice. I forgot how shitty it was to be that sick.

SMR: Legion. It had potential to be good, but it just didn’t cut it. If you’re an action fiend, it’s half-decent. If you’re a plot-hound, it’s meh. I still don’t understand why the ‘possessed’ people had ’shark teeth’, rather than normal teeth if they’re supposed to be possessed by angels? Not a very good movie, but like I said, it had potential. 4/10.

Hopefully I’ll get back to you later!
