Some Thoughts About This Website

Recently, I have had an increase in desire to fill this website with more content. I intend to use this site for my graphic design portfolio, but also have other content as well. A few months back, I mentioned that I’ve been coming up with a lifelong to-do list. I’m working on getting a few of them done, particularly I’ve been doing a little bit of game design. Adding lots of content that isn’t artworks I can insert in my portfolio may require a little alteration to this web site’s format (but that’s not something I’m not used to doing).

What the heck is this? A piece of a notebook I wrote on. I came up with an idea for a game in 2000 which I began work on in 2003. I converted the paper to digital format and this is one of the many ideas I am preparing for publication.

We’ll see where this takes me, but regardless of how it gets done, I do intend to start publishing some different content on this site. I mentioned a while back that I’ve been backing up old paper documents into digital formats and polishing them for publication. I’m on the polishing part right now. Perhaps I’ll get around to putting up my music-related content too.

I am going in a different direction with this site? Only time will tell.

What’s This? Project Five?

A long time ago, I told you about something called Project Five. Due to circumstances under someone else’s control, it was cancelled. However, it has been open up again. So, here’s a little peek at Project Five before it is released to the public.

Project Five Update

I began work on Project Five. It’s somewhat ironic that I mentioned that a few of my other plans had to be pushed back to work on Project Five. You see, something else came up involving a customer that pushed back the commencement of Project Five.

But anyway, I started on it, and it is almost complete. It should be done by September 1st. Here’s a little preview of the secret Project Five:

And while I’m on the matter of having things done by a certain date, I wanted to share some knowledge with you that I have always known, but a learned over again recently. I’ve spent the last few months thinking about ways to improve myself (not just in the computer art realm, but in life in general). I’ve been figuring out concepts that help me accomplish my goals.

I began work on a project a few weeks ago and did little bits of work on it. Two Sundays ago, I told myself that I wanted to have the project finished by the following Sunday. I stepped up and got a lot done. I, unfortunately, was not able to finish the project by the intended date. However, the fact that I got a lot of work done stopped me from feeling bad about it.

Whenever you do somethng, set deadlines; it gets work done faster.
