Saturday on Saturday (Just)
Saturday, May 5th, 2007After a couple of days when I’ve been churning out words for my noir fairy tale with an enjoyable ease today things slowed down a bit. Still managed to get the 500 words down to push past the 60,000 point. Not bad for a story I didn’t expect to be more than 15,000. The pieces […]

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007After a couple of e-mail requests I’ve posted an explanation of how I made last weeks WW – Creating the Inventor’s Work Bench.

Face Shop Pro – First Impressions
Monday, April 30th, 2007I picked up Face Shop Pro from the Daz web site earlier. So far my impressions of it are so so. When I tried it on the M3 head model they include with it the resulting mesh looks pretty good but Poser didn’t like it as a morph target which makes it pretty useless. So […]
Sitemap Now Up
Sunday, April 29th, 2007Last night I mentioned I almost had the sitemap for my site up and running. I’ve done the polishing to it I wanted to do and it’s now on my site: impworks sitemap. A fact which is of no consequence to anyone but me really 🙂
More Google Sitemaping
Saturday, April 28th, 2007A few little modifications on my impworks site today. Added the new Sitemap line to my robots.txt file not a huge change but hopefully worthwhile. If you’ve got a site and are using an XML sitemap this simple modification to your site’s robot.txt file of a line like: Sitemap: <Site Address> (so for my impworks […]
Creating the Inventor's Work Bench
Friday, April 27th, 2007The picture I used for my Wordless Wednesday this week was made for the latest issue of Ragnarok. Various 3d models were assembled in Vue 6 Infinite but this one could have been made in any version of Vue. I’ll start with the easy bits. The bench itself is a cube with the old wood […]

Now I’ve got a few house keys and a lot fewer holes in my pockets. Wallet: Need somewhere to keep #3, #9. #10 and #12. Plus […]
