New Nexuiz Website

Art, Nexuiz, Web Development 2 Comments »

Well well well, I’ve been quite busy the past few weeks. Balancing school, work, play and of course the internet (which can fall under all three). In my business I have been maintaining websites for my clients, for myself and creating entirely new pages. Today I’d like to announce the release of the new Nexuiz Homepage, redesigned for the soon to be released version, 2.4.

The new version will be released shortly, I’ll be sure to let you all know when. Check the site for screenshots, videos and more details.

Do you know how to create your own wordpress template?

I don’t but I’m giving it a shot for the first time! I’m starting from scratch, building an XHTML compliant template the way I like it, then through some reverse engineering / tutorials, I will pass the data I need to my template files. I’m pretty excited!

Here’s a sneak peak:

Do Know Evil - New Design - Teaser

I’ve been busy with some design work the past few days, finishing up a few more entrecards and working close with clients to get a design that properly represents their business:

The ninjaz have been making some headway and we’re testing out a new host for ~5 game servers which will run NANL configs on. I go back to school in less than a week.

The Simple Organizer

Art, Ideas, Organization 3 Comments »

I’ve always had some trouble staying organized in real life (IRL). I think part of the reason is that other people’s methods don’t really work for me.

This tool is designed to help me deal with ‘mind overflow’. That is, more information than my brain is willing to process at one time. An organizer of sorts. That is what I consider my project to be. It is neither a notepad or a day planner, a scribble pad or a journal; it is what you need it to be, fast.

Used in conjunction with its bigger brother, who we’ll call ‘Homebase’, the device ‘Soldier’ is a fully customizable, expandable, archivable, seperatable ‘mind overflow system’.

Soldier is able to hold ~10-30 pages of 3 ringed paper 3.5″x5.5″. He can find relief from older documents by redistributing them to Homebase.

Notice the pen on the outside edge. This is intentionally done for quick access to the pen when TSO is closed.

My friend is making a movie for a free open-source first person shoot (FPS) we like to play from time to time. Much like the video below… except, this guy knows what he’s doing ;).

Today I designed some graphics for him to use in the movie.

It should be out in a few weeks. I’ll be sure to post information about it here for those interested.

Paint the Place - Lets Recap

Art, Personal No Comments »

I’ve been quite busy recently, doing work for my company, VGO Software who specialize writing code to accelerate development. Our two big products are Evo which converts Oracle® Forms to Java and Rev, a database-driven Java code generator for the enterprise. They are one of two companies certified by Oracle® to convert to Java, which is pretty cool.

But back on track, I’ve been doing work for them in preparation for Oracle Open World. Which I had the honor to design a few things for. Such as:

VGO Software - Nintendo Wii Flyer

I’ve also had my hands in XEPIC, which Jimbo and I are proud to release a new beta release which has laid the ground work for the soon to come 1.0.

I’ve updated parts of my portfolio, gotten my hands dirty in the world of mapping and started an online community.

In my free time, I paint:

Is Z The End?

Art 2 Comments »

This alphabet appears to have multiple endings… I started the one on the left (in pencil) before I left for Bisco but I decided to do a quick color one (took ~45 minutes) to see how it would look. I’m not sure I’m going to stick with either for the final product… we’ll see.

I suppose a work of art is never finished.
