I took his images last week while I was changing out my video card. Amazing images that could only be born from my love of photography and light. Notice the subtle hues invoked and the way the light bounces off the damaged insides of my computer as if we are excavating… I dunno where I was going with that. The images are hilarious in that they look like they were taken by an 80 year old with parkinsons.
Click the image to open the damn gallery
To answer your question about that gallery, yes, that is a brand new Bamboo Wacom Tablet (small) being guarded by a tiny AT-AT and Boba Fett. It’s taking some getting used to. I only use it for work so I’m still getting used to it. My main problem with it is that double click and sometimes just clicking in general feels very awkward. The way windows and different programs deal with it is also interesting. Most of the time you can hold down a little button on the pen and “grab” the screen to scroll around. Most of the time it works, but a couple times now when I was expecting it to work I wound up dragging a random folder into another random folder and not knowing what went where. Also it’s shortcuts don’t work so well, you’re supposed to be able to put the pen down and make a left swipe to go back, but if the area isn’t clear or you run into text or a graphic or something it just highlights a huge area.
I’ve decided that I just need to write a weekly post where I only talk about music since that’s what a large portion of what I do post about is on. I also never feel like I get enough out about it either. So I’ll try to do it this weekend or next week. No more music in regular posts unless it’s about a concert or something.
Got another D&D group together, this one is full of people I used to game with in high school. Unfortunately I am running it since our old DM “doesn’t know the new system” or something logical like that. I think it’s going alright, I’m starting to fall into a rhythm and I’m not so nervous anymore. Still trying to find one more person to play, we are kind of short handed and I don’t like running an NPC on top of everything else that I’m looking after.
Getting into PHP again. I was watching a video tutorial for a while, but I got hung up on something and I couldn’t get my code to work the way it was supposed to. With no one to ask about the problem I let it go. Now I’ve got a book so I can follow it closely without feeling rushed because I’m typing on my tiny laptop keyboard that I still haven’t gotten used to. I’ve got an idea for a first project for myself, something that I think would be handy not only for myself to have when I am running a D&D game but other people as well.
Enough rambling, out.
