Updates - 2000

November 4: Two new pics in the Inspired gallery... I've been busy with work-type stuff, so I've got other things to add to other sections, but I just don't have the time to do the HTML work. :P I figured I had to at least add that DBZ fan art though, considering it apparently went over pretty well with a web community I'm not even familiar with. Heh.

October 8: Since Sunday's my day of rest, I spent my time today finishing up coloring a picture I drew ages ago, for the Inspired gallery. Tomorrow it's back to work as usual...

September 30: Finally got around to adding a few pics to my various galleries - specifically, the Inspired gallery has two new pictures, including one I just finished this morning, and there's one new (and scary) doodle in the Junk gallery.

September 16: In my regular IRC channel, we somehow got on the topic of dreams, and I suddenly remembered that I'd written down a bunch of mine in the last couple of months that I'd never bothered to post in my dream journal. So now they're there. ;)

September 8: I found some old pics of my first rabbit yesterday, and felt compelled to scan them... so now the rabbit photo album is operational! The cutest photo gallery you'll ever see... =) On the less cute side, I also scanned a few more pictures of myself and my stuff, including what my computer area looks like, and put those in my personal gallery.

July 22: Another rather neat dream, which I think would make a better suspense movie than a lot of the ones out there... Also updated my list of casted roles at my VA resume - one in each department!

July 16: Very bizarre dream - one of the standard "escape from hospital" dreams except for a twist which I think was tossed in there thanks to being concerned about one of my bunnies, who's a little under the weather now...

July 13: Just a quickie - I recorded some audition lines today, and liked them a lot (in fact, I finally did that thing where I listened to the group of clips and said "Whoa... those are both me?" Good example of range, I guess), so I added them to my VA resume along with a clip someone said they wanted to hear. ;) I think I'm going to make a specific layout for the resume soon, cause I've been in the mood to make a new layout, but don't have any new pages. :P

July 12: Finished off another midi that I'd had sitting around half finished for ages. It's a remix of one I put up previously... and man, is it ever remixed.

July 9: Finished a new FFV midi that I've been kind of half-heartedly been working on for ages, and I think it's pretty darned good. Also had a short but amusing dream a few hours ago, and while I was at it, finally decided to post a ramble I'd written up a week ago.

July 3: Since Caph demanded it, a part of the "Etc." section that I've been meaning to put up for quite some time is up. Partially. I'll let my co-updater, D4rQu3cHyLd3, tell you about it...
d00d u h4v 2 v1s1t my p4g3, t3h bl4k p1tz uv d1sp4r3!!1 1f u d0 n0t 1 w1ll h4xx0r y0r h4rd dr1v3 h0 h0 h0! 1t 1z 1337 & h4z p03tr1 & stuf.
Also, a new goofy little doodle in the Junk page of the Art section... and no, I have no idea why. ;)

July 1: Starting off the seventh month with just a little something... as today's Canada Day, and three days from now will be the 4th... well, I'm not really into nationalism, I'm more a humanitarian. Sort of. At any rate, I thought it would be appropriate to post some links that actually benefit people around the world. Namely, The Hunger Site, The Rainforest Site, and webreleaf.com.
...Okay, so I'm not that humanitarian, and it's not a timing thing that made me post them today. I should have put these links up ages ago, really, I've been meaning to do so for ages. But I do visit them every day, and I encourage others to do so too - there's no reason not to, considering it takes no money and very little time and effort to simply click a link.
And by the way, I have no idea why I can FTP in to update my page on my ISP's server when I can't get my email or even log on with my own username at the moment. But I'm not going to complain about the one thing that hasn't been taken from me due to my lack of money. ;)

June 28: The new link's up in my VA resume! For those who want the shortcut, it's to my first real production - The Final Fantasy V Radio Play. Now accepting auditions... Also, I added a new (and very stupid) impersonation to the clips page in there... way down at the bottom. Oh man, I am so sleep-deprived... don't think I would have recorded that if I wasn't. ;)

June 19: Added a couple clips plus a new role to my VA resume. There should be a new link in that section soon too... heh heh heh...

June 13: Another interesting dream, this time an adventure. I think I've been watching too much Monster Rancher, perhaps.

June 1: Finally, I finished that NES tune that's been driving me and Steve crazy - the Double Dragon theme! We've both been having trouble trying to sequence it, and well... when I looked at the individual channels, no wonder. That is one weird little song. But I finally got it right (more or less)!

May 29: Ohhhh yeah. Finally decided to take some time and simply draw/color, and I think it was worth it. See the results over in the inspired gallery. Rather pleased with the actual work I got done today too, but the public will have to wait to see that. ;)

May 27: And on the flip side of the last update, I had another dream that completely made me mad that I had to wake up, despite the fact I was pretty miserable in the dream too. That's one I won't be posting anywhere, but instead I'll post a new ramble, and also updated my casted roles in my VA resume. Speaking of that, looks like I'll be posting my first "production" (and I use that word lightly - it's quite small) fairly soon, definitely at The Northern Crater, and maybe here too. Might have some new fan art too.

May 23: I just had one of the coolest "realistic" dreams I've ever had in my life, and so after lying there in bed berating myself for dreaming up such a thing without it being true, I logged it on my dream journal. I really need to get my Dar Williams section up again...

May 19: I had a sort of weird dream this morning/afternoon, and decided to write it up in my dream journal for everyone to look at and wonder what the heck is wrong with me. It's not particularly exciting or bizarre, for the most part, but it had a couple recurring themes in it, so I thought I should make a note of it. Someday, I've got to figure out what city that is, and where that house is...

May 17: Went to an incredible concert by Richard Shindell on the 13th as a birthday present, and on top of that, got a new CD out of it. (Man, my actual birthday sucked, but the weekend before it ruled. :D) And so I've finally gotten around to adding it to the list on the Owned page, and wrote a little review of it here. So many CDs I have that I still have to cover... but I figured I'd do this before it faded into the rest of my collection or anything. ;)
There won't be many updates for the next month and a half, by the way: I got a new deadline for one of my jobs, which means I'll be working nonstop for the next six weeks, or until it's done. But hopefully after that, I'll have enough money I can take a few months off and just relax and update my pages whenever. Heh heh...

May 10: Another midi for the borrowed page, but this time from Monster Party - it's the title screen music. I dunno what's up, lately all I feel like doing is making midis of NES game music. At least this one was easy. =)

May 9: Another River City Ransom midi for the borrowed page! I love this game, darnit... Also, the other day I was bored and frustrated with my inability to think of a cool idea for a splash page, and so one just sorta... happened... if you look around, you should be able to find it. :P This was inspired by my going to an absolutely awesome concert last week... Weird Al!
Came back later and reorganized my casted roles in the VA resume, including the addition of a new one. :D

May 2: I've been sort of obsessing over my old NES games lately, and have been playing around with designing another page, for all the goofy NES and SNES icons I've been making... I've got this awesome layout planned, and if embedded midis weren't evil, the midi I just sequenced would have been specifically for background music. ;) I'm thinking about making a really weird remix... for more info, check the borrowed page in my sounds section.

April 30: Had a seriously weird and depressing dream, but it was sort of intriguing... so... yep.
Came back later and started up one of my Photo Album pages, cause it basically already existed in another layout. ;)

April 27: Nothing like a little web page work to get me less frustrated. No really, I'm completely serious -- I feel much better now. Of course, some of it may be that I've been looping and listening to a couple songs from my first archived muse, who generally does make me feel better. How could I not write up a little tribute to him?

April 25: A few more things at the VA resume... I get the feeling everyone's on spring break, and that's why suddenly I'm getting a whole bunch of responses to auditions. ;)

April 22: A new picture in the junk section, which I actually like a lot, but it's unfinished, and will remain unfinished, because it's just a bunch of rough sketches. Cute though, and I hope to have an actual piece with these characters up soon.

April 21: A new ramble, dealing with something that happened last night... at first glance it was pretty awful, but after giving it some thought, more than anything else, I'm simply thankful.

April 20: Another casted role in the VA resume. And now I log off, cause it's thundering yet again. I love thunderstorms and all, but sheeesh...

April 18: A bunch of little updates and changes to my VA resume, including new WHP buttons, a couple of new roles, and a new sound clip! I'm rather proud of it even though I didn't get the voice right at all, because it was my first attempt at mixing in stereo, and it does sound cool. ;)

April 15: Finally got around to making banners and buttons for one of my other pages, and so a link to that page is also in the "Associated" links on the main index. Fweeeeet! Bwahaha...
Update #2: Added the really cool linking buttons for us WHP VA's to my resume... thank you!

April 14: A new ramble, about my sad, anime-deprived existance. And the one anime that I can enjoy at the moment... except for the lame theme song.

April 11: Two new pictures in the art section, though neither is exactly new... one is a "remix" of my Utter Self-Indulgence picture, as I mentioned below that I might do, and the other is an old picture of my fictional harem that I just realized I never posted anywhere, despite the fact I quite like it. Hmm.

April 10: I finished something I completely did not expect to be able to do, and rewarded myself by allowing myself an hour or so to work on this web page. Except since I only wanted to spend an hour or so, all I did was add some links. And not very many at that. But oh well... Random thought of the update: Secret of Mana had *really* good music.

April 8: Added a added a new casted role, the audition clip for that role, and a silly new sound clip (like the audition clip wasn't silly?) to my VA resume! Also decided that a certain self-portrait in the original art section needed to be completed. Heheh, I think I may draw alternate outfits for it too... and I've got people trying to get me to make a kiss doll. O_o

April 6: Messed around with some messed up directory structures, made a quick change to my FAQ, added a singing clip to my VA resume, put one of those nifty iMood thingies in my profile, and wrote a new (and completely irrelevant) ramble. Also tried in vain to find a more attractive font I could use on the counter on the front page. I wish more people at that site would make digits that would work on light backgrounds - I saw some great ones, but they were all white on black backgrounds.

April 5, 2000: Began uploading these files and switching over to the new design, because I'm putting in a new HD tonight, and I don't want to lose this whole new layout if I accidentally format the wrong drive or something. :P So despite the fact that not *everything* is finished, including the main index page, I'm uploading what I have.
