Happy new year! As you can see I changed the theme again. I just wasn't happy with the previous attempt. I for the life of me could not make the background work with the text in the foreground. Hopefully, I'll be happy with this theme for a while at least.

I decided I didn't like the look of this site, it was my first attempt with Wordpress after all. Anyway, I kept the layout the same, but I redid the bulk of the graphics and colors. As well as fixing as much as I could of Wordpress's sloppy HTML and CSS coding from the default theme they provide. I'm still [...]

Everything seems to be finally in place now. I have just a few more tweaks left to do, mostly browser specific adjustments. I really don't have much to report on from over the Summer. I have begun work on another children's book, which I am hoping to have done by Christmas. I plan to use some of my vacation days [...]

I've been making some changes lately. I just switched my hosting to something a little simpler and less expensive, and I've also ditched my own custom content management system for WordPress. I figured it just wasn't worthwhile continuing work on my own custom CMS when there are plenty of better and free alternatives out there. And I figured I may [...]

I’ve redesigned my site around a new content management system that I wrote from scratch. On this new site, I stripped away the unnecessary material and streamlined what I had left. Most of my gallery works are, at this point, pretty old, so I’ve pushed them into the back seat and I'm focusing on my more recent works, such as [...]

I made my own iGoogle homepage theme with Inkscape. The creation process wasn't too bad, Google's documentation was okay, but as a web designer I wish Google allowed a bit more freedom in the design of a few of the graphical elements. I'll probably update it in the future, fix a few minor things. I may even do a winter [...]

It's been a while since I've written a blog, mainly because I don't have much to report on. I'm still in the hunt for a "satisfying" full-time job to replace my "not so satisfying" job, and find a publisher or agent for my book, which appears to a very daunting process. I may just go it alone and self-publish the [...]

The college textbook that I designed the illustrations for using Inkscape is now in available in stores. You can also take a look at some of those illustrations right here.

I just setup my own CafePress online store. I plan to include some of my artwork™ on this site. Right now, I don't have much in it, but I will eventually. Personally, I have no idea as to the quality of the actual products this company makes, so if you order something let me know how what you think of [...]
