New Day, New Updates

So I have been mega busy trying to get the site into some new more manageable order. The idea with the new update is that once its done, updating the site in the future will be extremely easy and we will see new looks and banners biweekly. This times nicely with the new Camera that Matthew and I got.

I am so sorry for all the messed up stuff, but I have some other stuff to do for a while.

New Flash Demo for PSP

I made this new flash demo to inspire people with what we can do now using less than 100k with flash.

::Download Flash SWF::

This flash file was made to alert users about the dangers associated with eating raw shellfish, especially oysters. The syndrome is called PSP. It renders you paralyzed and you end up dying from not being able to move your lungs. If you click on the Oyster Shell he will come out and tell you about it. Once he's out, if you click on him you will be able to visit a page about the syndrome.

It is just another example of me reformatting my previous work for something new.

visiting robin

I'm at robin's house. Its been a crazy night of meeting pre-elmwoodstripper's. See you soon stickboy.

I also saw Liz and Sara(h), both of whom I hadn't seen in a while.

Here is a pic of Terry, it is the only one that worked out before I "fell asleep" in the bathtub. Robin had a cat before, and I was scared to find cat hair, as I am mega allergic, so at 3:00am the bathtub seemed like reasonable place to hang out that would be cat-hair free.

I probably seemed like such a freak.

My Addictions

Turn the volume up to hear my new test of the flash system. This should make it really easy for you to get your flash on the web.

I need flash comm - check these out

Here is an example of the shared ball game

. If you use this while someone else is you can both fight for contorl of the ball. This is the same flash comm server that the audio chat, video chat, and profiler run on. Does anyone remember the profiler

. It is really incredible, there are a bunch of people who already recorded messages. If you have a web cam/ mic you can record. Nick, you must have a cam or mic, I am curious if it works on a mac. Otherwise you can simply listen.

Both the shared ball and the profiler link require that the 567 supercomp is on, which it is 90% of the time.

Does anyone want to donate to my flash comm server fund. I still need $270 dollars. I could promise great new features. If you want to donate, click on the paypal button and donate online. I promise to repay you in features.

NIkon 1

I got my new camera today. I am so freaking excited t o start capturing the textures around me. Here is my first texture sample from about twelve feet away. Mind you this is compressed for the web and shrunk down. Still you can see that the image quality is really great.

Terry

I agree with you 100%. As long as the company is not making the technology adjustments because they are "going under" and need to drop employees to survive, then why can't technology benefit both the worker and the company. Its almost like doing good means laying off all of your workers and having an electronic workforce, save several mechanics, electricians, and programmers.

Sometimes its probably easier to work with robots. I often dream about how uniform it would be to teach robots by giving them code, instead of students by giving them words. Especially if the robots were all the same make and model.

Response to Shawnr

I am 100% Italian and I think I must have inherited my morals and manners from the mafia. Okay that's not all true but, I am very vendictive, which is both a character flaw and advantage for me sometimes.

In this case it was mostly a problem with her not being local. My inital intention was to have a local forum with people who were in some ways affected by (e:Strip). Everyone here has either lived off Elmwood, lived in Buffalo, or is closely related to someone or something that does reside here.

I never wanted to start a live journal site. I agree that there could be better approaches but when someone messes with my friends its makes me really angry. Sometimes I get crazy. One time I threatend to burn down a hotel and the police had to come.

So now it leaves me with so many issues. Not sure if you saw post 590, it was a couple down. [inlink]userName=paul,blogID=590[/inlink]

On another note, did you ever want to do anything with Second Life cartoons. I remembered we had talked about it in class but didn't know if you were still interested. It would be great to do a commercial/cartoon for the site. Maybe we could re-inact this drama and have multiple endings that the user can pick.

Ransom Note Maker

So after finishing the cam I decided to continue cutting out ransom note letters for my automated ransom note writer. Here is the

Simply type the note and print. No finger prints added. I figured this oculd be necessary at some point.

Scud Responses

None of the wirefusion stuff made it to the site. I had prised him a class of 14's worth and then only about 5 turned out good. I will make a place to post them here soon.

As for the 64 bit processor. As far as I know none of the software you use has been upgraded to take advantage of those processors.

Here is a

to the benchmark pages for the opteron from AMD. If you get one go with the AMD opeteron. You can find such things here at zipzoomfly

I would stick with a dual xeon P4 for now. Or maybe go for the 64bit and hope the software take advantage of it. I think you would be best putting the additional money into ram.

The candle and dish was made using Cinema 4D. I have the file still if you want to check it out sometime. It seems to take forever to render.
