Since I realize that I won't have my pictures up on my website until the main page is done...although I do plan to get my photography section up first so that is some good news...I thought I would post up some of my favorite Disneyland photos. Thanks for your patience...trust me...it was well worth it.

*EDITED BECAUSE THAT ANIMATION WAS GETTING ME DIZZY. THE LINK IS STILL BELOW.
MAN...I AM ON A ROLL TONIGHT GETTING STUFF DONE. THE DISNEYLAND PICTURES ARE ALL FUCKING FINISHED. ALL 290 OF THEM. I thought I would finish up this animation because my porn subscription ran out...

Holy shit. Today was the absolute worst day in my life.
I think that Andy and I perfected the brownie recipe. All it takes is just some downtime from when you bake it and eat it.
Holy fuck.
I spent my entire shift in the office. With my boss laughing at me. Over the trash can. Dry heaving. I ate 3 1/2 at around 8ish last night. It is now 9:00 pm the next day and I am still FUCKED UP.
Moderation is the key. And for all that want to try these in the future...2 is probably max for myself. If you want to fly for the next 24 hours...eat 4.
STOP SPINNING.

Ok so I got this email from a woman from work who forwarded an email she got from her husband. I was laughing my ass off (maybe because I know her).
"I just cut the s%$# out of my hand on a glass in the kitchen - right to
the bone, gnarly - called the doctor's office, no doctor today, told the
nurse what happened, she says I'll have to go to urgent care on the other
side of town, that's a guaranteed 4 hour stop, f$%# that. So, I found the
tackle box and got out the lightest line in there (8 lb, 4 would have been
nicer) and Rambo'ed it myself. Kept bending needles, they must have
pointy ones at the e.r.!! After I got'r done, I loosened up the stitches
and walk outside and dumped a s%$#load of denatured alcohol on it,
screamed, and tightened 'em up. Mint, huh?
P.S. - That'll teach me to do the dishes, f%$#in dangerous job...... "

Interesting that my boss sent me this:
http://directory.help.com/classes/providers/cnet/homeentertainment/
May be interesting for those caring about their Home Theatre System. I haven't looked into it in too much detail, but could be interesting.

Responding to the comments:
Tony: First of all...they aren't OUR pictures. They are MY pictures. Maybe you should have brought your own camera sucka. Hardy har har har.
Kevin: Wait? Were you in any of the Xmas pictures? Perhaps if you didn't bring your stupid dog in my house I would want to work on these pictures...instead I have to delete the little runt out of my folders. That's what is taking so long. So there!
Bryant: Weren't those pictures supposed to be done 5 months ago? YOu mean you never got the email? Haha. But have no fear...I'm gonna work on some of them tonight. No seriously, I am.

Haha! Since Myspace decides to only let small as pictures on each profile because Myspace sucks I'm going to share the photos here in real quality. Also for the record I didn't do these solely for Myspace. Since I have no fucking photos of myself with this camera...I thought I might as well break out the lights, cardboard reflector and have at it.
Good Night and Good Luck definetely had an impact on these shots. So did The Ring obviously. Since I don't have my own site up just yet...I thought I'd share the HQ ones here. Hope the last one gives you nightmares. Who am I kidding. That picture sucks.

Holy jesus shit. Okay the chips are a little bit more than originally planned and I was just going to give away an extra 100 chips (10 sets of all 10 chips) but to make things interesting I'm thinking that instead...if you win a tournament you get a set of 5 chips. That way you need to win 2 to get the whole collection. I dunno. I still would like to give a set to each person who plays in our games regularly, but why not make them earn it a little bit?
Haha and Boaz and Rich and anyone other random fucker you bring into the game will never win so I don't have to worry about giving them chips. But if they do win...they get nothing of course. Haha.

Okay some tweaks and updates. First lemme address some of the comments for all.
Eecs - That fucking devil has made me the evil person I am today. I joke about killing babies with nothing but forks and toothpicks, but the rage is there all because of this devil. If you played the game you know that he dances and prances around your ass with no known pattern known to man. This made him impossible to kill every single time, you just had to hope you weren't in your boxers by the time you got to him or else you died. Then you had to hear that stupid map theme song. I can't think of another enemy besides the whole game of spelunker that pissed me off more. Therefore he gets in out of a weird sense of respect I have for this fucker. You were right about the colors. Check out the new proof sheet to see if they are more vibrant. I printed this out to make sure that the words were still visible which is why the outer ring might be a little dull...needed to be for readability.
Bryant - Wishes the triforce could be on a different chip. Wait till he sees the chocolates in person. He'll wish he could eat em up!
Steve - Hopefully I can get these ordered in the next couple of days unless someone sees something terribly wrong with the design or layout.
So here it is. The colors of the backs are redone. Kirby and Bomberman no longer sandbagging. (Haha...I was laughing when I read that comment by Jonathan). Take a look.

Sweet. Those look about ready for print, besides perhaps...
I really like how you added different colors to the backs. I would try to equalize the saturation of color in the circle portion with the words, because some seem much more subtle than others, making them look dull/grey.
I assume you really like all those characters. I was never into Ghosts'n'Goblins, so I would ax the devil guy. To me, that image is of too minor an aspect of the game, and lacks the charm that the others exude without effort or winged backs.
Is that really an 8-bit rendition of Kirby? The shading and pixel size look suspiciously fine compared to the rest. I get the feeling that puffy pink punk is sandbagging. With that infuriating smile and disturbing lone ear.
Tony makes a good point. I suggest you buy an extra 10,000 chips and sell many small "exclusive collector's edition" sets on eBay for profits that boggle the brain. Who takes copyright law seriously these days? Prudes, and people who are afraid of prison, that's who. Chickens. Yes.

Yellow = Piss
Tony's comments don't mean anything because he doesn't know what he is talking about. I think he majored in soccer. Haha.
I tried to brighten the picture on the title, but it does distract. I will not know what goes here until I actually take pictures and choose something that I could bring out that doesn't go against the white font.
Fuck the color yellow. Asians are known as yellow people. I think we are done with the yellow. Haha.
Bryant - What do you mean by your comment? You mean you want blue on the right and left right? Well I'll do a mockup so you can see it, but I thought it was a little too plain. But again I'm the artist and I'm biased toward my opinion! Haha! So I'll post it soon so you can check it out.

Haha. I was gonna edit my original post so it looks like Andy pointed out all the things that I said not to worry about because he is an idiot. But I decided to give him some credit because he did say somethings that I had issues with also. Plus in my haste to get to sleep I decided to leave out all the things you shouldn't have to worry about in your critiques.
- Don't worry about the exclamation points. Hell...that isn't even what the welcome message is going to be. I was just filling it in to see the composition!!!!!!!!!!
- I haven't decided whether the main text in the middle window is going to be html based which is why it has such a hard edge to it. Perhaps inserting the text as graphics will help streamline the whole design?
- None of these pictures are of our food. I still need to go take the pictures that you see at every restaurant...you know like Carrows and their dessert items menu.
- That window on the bottom right I think will be to put up some messages like "buy gift certificates" or "buy a shirt" (which I don't even think we carry anymore haha) or "buy bottled our bottled sauce" blah blah blah.
- That isn't our logo either. I didn't feel like doing a good logo just yet because I am lazy.
Again the main thing I'm concerned about is the webpage itself. Perhaps it looks a little too modern or too should I say...sophisticated for the caliber of our restaurant. I mean our restaurant isn't a sit down and dine sort of place...well I guess it could be...I dunno. Keep the responses coming.

Okay so here is a quick design of the Tomo's website. My family gave me a menu and a bottle and said have at it. Unfortunately I don't get my own timeline so I can't take forever on this site. So I did this one in like two hours in photoshop from 4-6 am...so I'm tired and cranky. Lemme know any first impressions that you have. Complaints, compliments...anything is cool. ONLY SERIOUS CRITIQUES THOUGH so I can get this site rolling. Thanks!

I'm going to say this as simple as possible. This is about the custom chips and how Steve won't get off my nuts for ordering them...well here is the announcement...there are still certain things that must be met but here it is...
I am pretty sure that since I am a ChipTalk member that I can get these edge spot designs...these aren't the finalized ones but please take a look at what you can do. Color combos would be turned down at the time of order so pretty much anything right now is in the planning stages. Lemme see some mockups people! Fuck...I better get really cracking on these inlays before this offer goes away!
