Lack of creative themes

December 23, 2006

So, I’m back in Enlightenment. It was my first X11 Windowmanager, and it is still my favorite. The thing I love the most has to be the creativity that it allows for in theme-ing. Don’t get me wrong, I DO NOT theme. I’m far to lame to pull that off. What bothers me is the [...]

Put that pointer away!

December 3, 2006

I’ve been working on imagecloud more, and listening to my sister tell me how it needs a gui for mass appeal. I don’t disagree, but I am the LAST person one wants designing one of those. Think… http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/images/wgetgui-screenshot.png . Don’t get me wrong, I love wget, but I don’t know that the average user loves [...]

FC6 and painful essays

October 29, 2006

I should be working on my essay right now. I just can’t get into it. Shouldn’t have spent my day working on getting Fedora Core 6 going. It is nice to be back in a *nix environment. Programming is so much more natural feeling here, although that is probably because it is where I started [...]

New Page

October 26, 2006

I don’t know that it pops up saying I made a new page, but I did. ImageCloud has its own page now. Yeah, over on your right. Might have to scroll down a little. I don’t know if I’ll host the src there, or off site. I want a free host, I’m cheap.

Logo

October 25, 2006

Whilst working on myEnglish paper, I got bored. Big surprise. Anyway, I whipped up a logo for image cloud. The camera is Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 2.5 . Thanks Wikipedia

GPL vs BSD

October 25, 2006

I’ve been doing some reading. This GPLv3 looks kinda’ controlling. I think I may want a new license (which I should probably post here). I hear that the BSD license is “true freedom.” Anyone have any opinions?

Ubuntu, ARG!

September 14, 2006

Okay. Does anyone else HATE Ubuntu? I’m so frakking tired of hearing about it. Everyone talks about it. It is always on Digg.com, and it irritates the hell out of me. It’s not that perfect. Oh, “Apt-Get/Synaptic is so great.” Um..  Debian anyone? It’s based off it. I’m just tired of people always talking about [...]

ImageCloud found! Sort of…

September 8, 2006

I was searching through one of the paste-bin sites out there (http://rafb.net/paste or deadbeefbabe) and found part of ImageCloud. The only problem, it’s not a big part. It still saves me about half an hour though. Yeah, I know, I should be sleeping for math class, but I’m not tired for some reason. As always, [...]

Py2P and ImageCloud

September 7, 2006

On the not of dying hard drives, I lost Py2P and ImageCloud. Py2P was in a fairly complete stage, and ImageCloud was done except for the UI (a rather important piece, in which the design practice could benefit me greatly). I will ponder re-coding Py2P; I wanted very badly to work on encryption. ImageCloud is [...]
