Monday, July 30th, 2007

Well after two more drafts over the weekend The Electron Jockey just found it’s way off into the ether where it’s destiny awaits it…

The Electron Jockey: Edits

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

Thanks to Sarah and Kim for their edits on The Electron Jockey last night. I think I’ve found a way to fix one of the problems they spotted without blowing the ending.

The Electron Jockey

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

Finished writing a short story I’ve been working on called “The Electron Jockey” tonight. I’m going to edit it tomorrow and sub it before the end of the month if I still like it tomorrow…

New impworks Home Page Live

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

I’ve just put the new version of my impworks sites home page live. My main aim with the new design was to neaten up the layout and to use the white space in a different way so I can simultaneously squeeze more into the space used and yet have a tidier look. I’ll start using […]

Mass Convert 0.5.1. and Vue 6 Infinite build 291551

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

E-on have updated Vue 6’s python in release 291551 so that it now produces little preview images of objects exported to their Vob file format using the default preview camera position and settings.

New impworks Home Page… Almost

Tweaking the Vue Links Directory

Monday, July 16th, 2007

I’ve been watching how my Vue Links Directory has been growing over the last few months and how users were using it. I’d noticed a trend for certain links to get a lot more use than others. In the classic way that happens with link lists with no extra information other than the site name […]

Talentless Spammers

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

I doubt the individual responsible for this post will ever read it. I have no intention of replying to their e-mail by e-mail. I’d like thank them for their kind offer on information on how I can reduce spam to my site through my contact form but I really don’t need their help. I’ve been […]

Tonight I've Mostly Been Playing with CSS 3

Friday, July 13th, 2007

There are some pages on the impworks site that I want to improve the layout on. The Vue links directory, the impworks home page and the main impworks vue page need sprucing up. I was contemplating a multi column design as one solution. While looking at various solutions I came across some CSS3 examples. CSS […]
