It holds about 9 regular packs of Tic-Tacs. Went with the white ones because I can't find the dark green ones out here.

First up, Warren, it was cool to talk with you at the office. I rather enjoyed getting to just shoot the shit for a while.

Lately, I've been playing the hell out of S4 League. (That video on the splash page is annoying.) It's been scratching an action-twitch itch for me. I dig the Phantasy Star art style and the music's not bad.

It's a third person, shooter, death match game, that reminds me of playing Unreal Tournament with the matrix moves mod. Game Play footage. The game is in beta, but it seems even after launch it will be 'free' supported by Micro Transactions. Given my pay-check is paid by such conventions, I approve of such a model. However, the concept of repairing my Cherub's ever decaying face is a little strange to me.

One giant recommendation I have is that, should you play, don't spend all of your starting money on clothes. You can buy a few, but note your starting weapons are on a timer, and if you have no weapons and no money to buy new ones, your pretty much boned as your account will be unplayable.

I'd like to do a wall paper of my character later, but we'll even see if I have time.

Note: Thank you to all who sent in the kind words of my engagement to Jessica. It was really nice to see such support.

I see you over there, Boyd. With your dwarven Death Knight... Lich King cabana boy.

Ha-hah! You can mock me no longer, Boyd!

Apparently we're really not used to living here.

As reader Judith noted, West Coast houses don't have shutters on the windows. Edit: Ok, so that was a bit broad. But in the Bay Area, they're rare.

Ian's on Vacation
July 28, 2008, 00:01 EST
 
My soon-to-be wife and I have headed out to upper state New York for a little vacation time. So I'll be very far from all things internet for a while.

My apologies for not ranting in a while. Guess I haven't had much to say since the proposal. I still don't really...

Till I can post some new art, enjoy the work of an artist I admire. Niklas Jansson's site.

This guy randomly does design sheets for re imagined old games and does some top notch retro renditions of old sprites. The detail he goes into is always a treat, and I love his ability to draw attractive machinery. Plus he's got some cute Robot Masters. He's also got a little art tutorial here.

The guy is pretty random. He doesn't seem to focus on much for too long. He's also pretty fond of drawing low riding underwear. All in all, his work is pretty awesome. Enjoy digging through his old works.

Since we're doing some more interview stuff over at my regular job, I figured, hey, why not do an interview with the guy who makes Dwarf Fortress?

It's kind of long, so it's in three parts. The rest goes up tomorrow and the next day.
