I missed Everything
I missed everything today. I had a run in with too much work and never was able to manage a ride to the actual facility. Anyways, I spent the day productively reading and teaching myself all there is to know about the new bodypaint interface in Cinema 4D and wirefusion. Wirefusion is great but in the end I realized that the VRML exporter in Cinema 4D just doesn't cut it. Like no PLA for one. Looks like I'm going to stick to maya or go ahead and write a plugin.
Even crazier still I actually met Mr. Jesse Forrest Fabian in Second Life. Unfortunately, I forget to take a snapshot of the moment. We built , we smoked, we laughed.
This site seems to be going the way I want it to I just need to have more time to add more features and promote it. Winter break will be here soon. I am actually thinking of turning this into my thesis project somehow. Its a tie between this and VR and VR is just to damn elitist for me.

It works
Well after all that I just heard the startup chime and I think it was a postive outcome for the computer surgery.

Computer Craziness
Category: hardware
While in the middle of updating the site and working on some wirefusion stuff for my class, my brother stopped by in need of a hard drive upgrade for his iBook 500 mHz. It came with a 10.0 GB drive but he needs more space for a movie he is working on. I decided to give him my old drive figuring it was a snap to replace. Well, it took about 4 hours so far and the drive looks like - well like this picture

So here we are with his computer completely taken apart.

Code Updates !
I spent a lot of time working on the code this weekend. There are lots more features. You can now upload images to our server. The page then gives you the address of the image and the code you would need to display an image in your journal entry. It also gives you a thumbnail and a way to delete the images stored in your directory.

Now you can also stay logged in thanks to cookies when you are updating your journal and you switch to view your journal. There will be many more features in the next month. Hope you enjoy.
