Just paying in Photoshop again, I haven't really used for a year at least, not for anything creative anyway.
Not sure what it is yet, I do know It's not finished though.Though I suppose an artist never really finishes their work, they merely abandon it.
And yes It's extremely girly. Started out with the idea of just creating some ornate backdrop for something. This is one hour in:
It's born from these 3 stock images:

Just improved tag support further, now It's useful. And added smilies/emoticons (images copyright Apple Inc)

Also redone the whole RSS/XML feed. Hopefully It's all good now. It will work in conjunction with Tags and stuff. Will now have clickable images, and well.. all the stuff the HTML version has been enjoying.
I've also redesigned the page to have a fixed width and a subtle drop shadow via CSS 3. It's also using a Max-width feature of CSS 3.
I just made the realization that all the available mac graphics cards literally are defunct PC ones. Take for instance the upcoming Radeon 3870 that's finally arriving on Mac... great you say but the new 4870 for PC is coming out at the same time almost. And the difference in speed between them is well.. incompressible?
Any surplus graphics cards for PC floating around, hey get rid of them on mac users, where low end cards are still competitive.

Bit of a random entry, but it amused me so:
Yes believe it or not that guy was chosen by "People" magazine as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World. Just not when that photo was taken.
He gained 62 lb for his latest role, playing Mark David Chapman, in Chapter 27 (2007). Then lost the weight by going on an all-liquid diet consisting of lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper, and water. He lost 20 lb in 10 days.
And he's the lead singer in one of my favorite bands '30 Seconds to Mars'
And an actor in one of my favorite films 'Requiem for a Dream'
It's all a bit extreme if you ask me O_o
To say he's odd.. would be an understatement.
I just always find in interesting when you see the same person with a huge transformation.

I've just mirrored all the images here on a faster server so stuff should load nice and fast now.
More Vray goodness:
Just found out about LWF (Linear Workflow) which is a method of setting things up for correct color/saturation. By default GI tends to bleed color all over the place and look over saturated.
For the first time I've been modeling things to scale, and setting up lights and the sun with real values. This should eliminate the guess work needed to render things properly.
Though ill admit I still have no skill at using the physical camera
The above looks pretty good till I tell you It's meant to be White paint on the walls.
Bit noisy.
