This is a rotational ambigram of Nicole’s name. The typeface is based on the fonts Berliner and Ruritania. She loves it when I make artwork for her.

I know what you’re thinking. No, I haven’t read Dan Brown nor have I seen the movie.

Scions Site

Thursday, May 25th, 2006 at 10:57 am under Play

The official website of The Scions of Balthazar is now up. Took me a couple of days to get the template working properly in WP. The template is the bare minimum of what’s needed to get most pages working, just like the template I use here on my blog.

It has multiple authors so I expect it to be more active than my own blog. Poor Muymra blog, so neglected.

Hell yeah! I’ve been waiting months for this invite. I’m sure at least one geek out there is envious.

Obedience and malice

Thursday, May 18th, 2006 at 10:12 pm under Work, Ramblings

Is it so bad to let a client screw up his own site? The beginning of a project is usually so much better. Everything has been agreed upon, everything has been organized and laid out neatly just waiting to be created. More »

I would never get a Mac

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006 at 11:17 am under Tech, Ramblings

Because:

  • Too expensive
  • Too trendy
  • No games
  • Some people only buy one as a status symbol
  • No games
PCs vs Macs

Scions In Cantha

Tuesday, May 16th, 2006 at 1:13 am under Play, Tech

Sometimes when my internet goes down, I get the urge to be productive. This rare occurence happened yesterday and followed through to today.

My boss didn’t seem to mind me working on it while there wasn’t any actual work to be done, so I went ahead and turned it into a nifty XHTML/CSS template. I’m waiting for Psalm to give me the login to thescions.org so I could possibly start implementing the layout in Wordpress for our humble little Guild Wars guild site.

There comes a point in a man’s life when…

…he has transcended regular geekdom and feels the need to create his own paper Domo-kun. I am so going to display this on my office desk.

Joining the dark CSSide

The past week, I’ve been tasked with implementing a tricky design in XHTML/CSS. What a bitch it’s been. I’ve wrangled lightly with the CSS beast before and I usually end up getting a huge headache when I finally finish. This time around though, I think I’ve gotten used to the usual nuances and I’d say I’m getting pretty good at it. I crawled to the beast’s underbelly and gave it a firm kick in the nutsack.

I don’t think I’m at liberty to reveal what I’m working on right now, but it’s for a big local company looking to penetrate into the broadband entertainment niche. The only clue I can give is <3.

I’m rather satisfied with the template I’ve made so far. I’d like to think other people would’ve preferred to do it with tables because it would have been so much easier. There are still a few quirks with the CSS that refuse to go away, but I’ll figure it out eventually.

In my opinion they could’ve picked a better design, but hey, I’m proud to say it will look good on either IE or Firefox. I’m hoping to wrap up my part in the project this week and start work on the next big one.
