11-12-09: It took a bit but I finally had to write up a rant to get all this pent up anger out of my system. Only wrote on three subjects, so let's just call it a Hat Trick. 'Till next time! *Zoinks* 09-14-09: Here's the skinny - I have had a bit of spare time between projects recently so I decided to go through the whole of the House of Amill and update the code. Think of it as I'm filling in the gaps in the background. Things like alt tags, descriptions for pages and proper keywords. You know, codemoney stuff. Just figured I would give you folks an update. I did do some noticeable changes. In just about every section with a links page, you'll find an insane amount of new links. I also rewrote the About Me page, dropping some of the things that after almost a decade really don't apply anymore. As for what's next - a new Rant is coming soon so stay tuned for that. 'Till next time! *Zoinks* 08-20-09: Sorry for the lack of updates as of late. I wanted to do one last month but I was knee-deep in conventions at the time. I do have some good news to share with folks - I'm attempting to up my output on the Biff strip to two a week. It's tough going but I like the challenge. Also, I finished off the last two pages of my Modern-Day Metamorphosis comic. You can find those along with the rest of the tale at my ComicSpace page. In non-art related news, I made a page for my Streaming Video tutorial in an effort to reclaim my Rant space. With the recent events on the news and elsewhere, I'm finding myself with more stuff to prattle on about. Currently on my plate - I'm working on the gallery section of my Projects page to bring it up-to-date. I'm also working on a few more traditional pieces, which I may stream the coloring of later on. I need to finish up the inks on one and transfer another to thicker stock before I can get the rest of that sorted out. It's back to the Art Mines for me. 'Till next time! *Zoinks* 05-23-09: I've finally got around to getting to some much needed updates to the site. First up is some CSS polish. I've noticed around the other pages that, combined with the other visual tweaks I did, the text became kinda' hard to read. So I lightened the main text color up to the level of that on the shop page. The second addition was updating the Tips and Tricks side of the site. No new mods yet but I have dropped links to some of my favorite freeware fixes for folks to enjoy. I'm currently working on some Con stuff as I snagged a table at this year's ConnectiCon and I'll soon drop some info on how you can help me get to other cons and snag some gear! It's back to the Art Mines for me. 'Till next time! *Zoinks* 03-05-09: New Rant posted. Actually, it isn't a rant. It's a document I wrote up on what I learned about doing all of these UStream broadcasts. Ya' see... I draw live on camera - sometimes I stream my desktop - every now and again. Having done this for a bit, I've picked up a thing or too while doing it. It's good, it's fun and I have a ton of tips plus links to programs. You'll dig it. 'Till next time! *Zoinks* 01-20-09: Happy New Year from the HoA! This year feels like a good year... hopefully. New President, new website look and Biff is actually updating each week - though I still need to work on the On-Time part. I'm holding my own on my side of the system. The family moved to a new house and the set-up is a lot tighter than before. Folks - Avoid moving during November. It'll only end in tears and missing file disks. o.@ I think I may have the previous issues with Monochrmatic section fixed. We'll see for now but I think it's all good. No new artwork to post here just yet but I'm on it. Need to get my other system back up and running so I can get my files off of it. Like I mentioned before, missing disks really suck. On the plus side, the layout looks cleaner and more modern. You can find nav links across the top, just under the header, to every page including Biff. Plus I tossed in a couple of in-house ads up there for good measure. = ) 'Till next time! *Zoinks*
