Random thought #29F06
I'd still say, from the first time I listened to Madonna (and Justin)'s 4 Minutes, that it'll be my desert island music, hands down. I'll never get sick of it. iTunes records 41 plays and that's just on my Mac alone.
Oh, and I changed the hOP strip navigator from a flash one to a simple drop-down menu. So it works swell on my iPhone and other non-flash browsers.

Laments of my war against IE.

Those on Safari (and FF) see left. Those with IE see right.

A while back, I recoded my CSS and blog template so the whole world was happy. My blog was finally comprehensible on 'most all browsers, most importantly on IE. And before IE 8 is released, my, and probably THE war against IE will still go on with most of the world looking at broken CSS and tattered PNGs on IE6. I made a change yesterday (something I do rather often), and placed the blog off-center and put Gai in. It looked terrible on IE so I recoded and now IE loads the old CSS coding while everything else loads the new design. IE will be seeing the old design for a while. Nothin' I can do about that, or that I'm not bothered by allegedly inferior web browsers. (devilish laugh)

I'd like to add that the GEOTEK IE netrenderer is a great tool to see site designs on IE with a Mac. I use that rather often.

76% New Content. Guarantee not Included.
I thought I couldn't do it! But I did! The all-new flash-based-on-HTML artwork page includes all of my new actionscripting know-how. The Colouring book, the rollover descriptions, the cheap animated gallery transitions... all done.
I was rushing this out before my lessons started. It didn't today. Some students communication thing.
So enjoy the new artwork page, even though the only gallery is the new Sonic/PPG fanart collection. Bah!

The Achievement for Racing like a Madman.
After my best Road Rage with 51 takedowns and 61% through the game, I scored my Burnout (Paradise) Licence. Like DJ Atomika said, it ain't over yet. I still have cars to unlock and all the races to complete. The thing says "Elite in 104 Wins". That's a hell lot more racing to do, plus I want to do all the Road Rules. All I want to unlock is the Hunter Citizen cop car. Boys will be Boys.

My cheesecake has come to fruition and is sitting in the fridge to chill. Also, notice the new Puff-x navigation flash. It's finally done.

Anybody out there?
If this entry publishes, it probably means that I've solved my blog troubles and am able to get on with chronicling my life. Yay.
It's good to be back?

I had to be readmitted to hospital on 11 Oct. I'm still here, much better, but waiting to get out. As if to spite me, my blog went out. So I was dry for 2 whole months, not to mention the inability to create/upload my hOP strips without a computer (which I now have). Once I get home, I'll fulfill my updates to the site. I've been working on my pixels. I'll post that thing I scribbled one night when I needed to clear my thoughts.

Happy day...
After much whining and persuasion, I scored a pack of takoyaki. The (heavy-commercialised) octopus balls that takes over your mouth. Bad description. I don't care. Ommph.
Notice also that I've changed a few things on the blog. I redrew cris-kun and midori-chan for added chibi-ness. The landing page pixel city fun land also has a new building.

And finally, Moments from now, an online purchase will be made. Watch me.

P.S. and Great Breakfast Waffles too!

I freakin' hate Sibbie IE!
I fixed the blog. Gave it a tune up. The blog is now centered nicely on Safari, Firefox and, for you @#$%! out there, IE.
IE has stupid CSS problems and IE7 is no bed of roses either. That browser is pure evil.
Anyway, enjoy the nice layout. I might throw in some other stuff soon. This blog is so 1024x768 only now. Drag the window until you can see Cris-kun and Midori-chan at the sides of the screen.

2 Headers are now on the brim of the blog. The older "Hollywood magic sharpie" writing one and today's Tempura special. The magic happens on my desk. I love photomanipulation.
One last week. Yeah. Final projects are underway and then it'll be the end of 3DAr(t)Fun(damentals) class. I hope the class stays as it is and doesn't get mahjong-shuffled around. I got my project idea from my lecturer. It'll be simple, but crafty. Hope that turns out well.
As for Hopeless Optimism, you'll notice it has gone stagnant. I had 2 strips ready for publishment (no such word), one on 2nd May and the other on Xth May. But classes started and I became too busy/lazy to upload them. Give me this last week then my term break (vacation, actually) to begin, then I can upload whatever the heck I want. Bear with me.

Not much of a re-skin, but I've changed a few things on this blog, namely the Header and the Background colour.
I love drawing on photos. This header is a fine example. The Sharpie magically floats! OoooOOoo....

I couldn't stop. I kept going on and on with my flash navigation, now in it's 3rd revision. If you'd examine around, there's secrets to unfold. Okay, not really "secrets", just fun facts and secrets. I didn't say secrets.
Saturday was a blast. My dad has a legendary recipe for crab. Legendary, because he has been talking about it to my sis and I for years, but without delicious proof, it was to be a myth. And Saturday busted that myth. All from the fact that the market had very lively crabs. You just had to be there.

New Landing page Flash navigation. Spent 8 hours. Spent hella lotta time thinking of what to create. So I made extension works to my Macmini Apple store pixel art piece. Don't ask me why I used odd-coloured iPods for section navigation, or why they make a sound with a rollover. Making them appear from the deep basements was a clever improvisation. I'm not very good at Flash, okay? Gimme a break.

I likes it. Makes the site "professionally".

We Blacked out for 11 hours yesterday while shifting to a new server. I now have much, much, MUCH more free space to unload my stuff. I shoulda done this a long time ago. Enjoy.

Some pages/images may still be missing. Give it some time.

I Dropped the "hideous" logo, whited-out the entire page and slapped on a new design for the new landing page. I had the landing page up a few days ago, just not for public view yet. It's like I had a mental block for the navigation. I had a few bad ideas (Periodic Elements, Subway map, Hidden Words in a paragraph) before I came up with this one. Fuzzy TVs, mainly because I first did the Puff-x.com TV before I did everything else. So, new landing page with rollover HTML magic. Enjoy.

I made much Upgrades to the site. For one, unless stagnant without refreshing, the Frontpage is new. It's a photoshop of hOP on my tablet, with Gwen sitting on my Sony Ericsson. The New Logo and Tagline, "Purely for Fun", takes over the previous logo and the redundantly long tagline excuse for an abbreviation of Puff-x. My bored-one-day doodle project, "Happy Rock" (left) makes an appearance on the frontpage as well.

Enjoy! Thanks for the support of "last two years"!

Well, I've autumnised the blog. Rather warm looking. Blue Skies still exist, but I'd like to stick with this for a while.
I'm also finding a background randomiser that the layman can use. Pretty complicated stuff.
It's a new Blog theme and Where have all the Butterflies Gone?

Made a few adjustments to the site. For one, the New FlicCritic site is up. I got my MissPossThree review in there. Man, that movie was AWESOME. Go watch it, it's worth the ticket. Piracy won't cut it.
The hOP page has a slight revamp. You'll notice all the strip numbers are gone. Do you know how complicated and tedious it is to update 3 pages just to have one new comic put up? So the new system makes me do less typing. The Strip Viewer is Up, everything is organised. Appreciate it.

Might be back later. Just here to give the updates.

Major Update:
- Front Page (index.html) Updated.
- Sketchies Page Updated, incomplete.
- hedgehogStyle moved to Sketchies Page.
- Web Button made Available for Linking Purposes.

Yup. I got my Butt up to start the site again after the Fatal Incidents with Virtual PC. I'm no longer dependant on PCs. Yeah!

Hari wasn't in school today, probably because he, and I quote, "believed that he could Study better at Home". Oh Well. His Loss.
School announced that they made the record after all. Approximately 20,000 bottles were linked on Saturday. I don't have much info about it. Sorry.
