Digital Painting Tutorial 03 : How to draw an EYE (part II)

Ah something I got to try doing one day. A crap outline becomes a realistic eye. People are so talented xD

Check-Ins

Took me forever to figure out how to display check in messages. I did it eventually. Its not from Yelp but close enough. The post don't refresh on the rss feed till an hour or two later but it updates! So lets see. all the little tidbits that I added this morning:

• Latest Yelp Revies
• Recent Check-In
• Latest item to be added to wishlist
• 2 recently uploaded pic to Flickr Photostream
• Latest Tumblr Snippet

Took me a long time to finish but its good now. Takes forever only because I'm kind of a perfectionist. Everything has to be in the correct spot regardless even if its only off by 5 pixels or not; It has to be exact!

Since I'm all done for today, its off to studying for my midterms and finishing up my homework assignments. :)

Cricut expression!

I just ordered a cricut expression from walmart a couple hours ago and im excited! I have been wanting this machine for the past 2 - 3 years. This is a big investment even for me but I am hoping the payoff will be impressive. I have a lot of project ideas where this machine will be essential. Now all I need to do now is invest in a color laser printer. I hope someday I'll have a workshop/craft room to store all my gadgets because i really want to buy more stuff xD

Integration process

You know when i start designing webpages and writing up the codes and scripts; i tend to go overboard and spend countless hours fixing And tweaking the pages for hours! Thats the reason why im up right now still.
I just finish integrating my flickr account to post onto this blog when i upload anything. I intend to integrate other things but not right now. Probably after midterms. Rest assure though, i will totally blog more often! I wish they had like a yelp check-in widget for blogs; that would be cool. The facebook status widget didnt work properly -_-
Blog more later.

Treasures from the past!

Was looking at really really old websites of mines and found a ton of old photos. :) My little cousins were so tiny! now they're as big as me. -_- These photos were taken back in 2003. Oh how i miss my high school days! I was actually slim!

Reformating my hard drives

Hectic day today. I will go through a process of backing up all the files on my computer to a second hard drive and reformat my computer. I'll have to do this for my laptop too! boohoo. I feel that my computer was running kind of slow. I'm not sure how to use kill disk since I dont have the windows software -_- In any case, hopefully the computer wouldn't have so much junk anymore and that it will run smoothly and more quietly.

I'm going to have to find a way to fix my video card fan. I'm not sure if my power supply for my cpu is enough to run the card or not but the fan keeps turning on and off. Sometimes my screen goes black too but the computer is still running. its weird. After that, I'm going to have to install all my softwares and plug my tv tuner back into my system. I miss watchin tv D:

I'm a little excited for everything to be cleared out because I have a crap load of new software that I will be installing and trying out. After that, I'm just going to tap back into the artistic side of me and draw myself a new banner using the new programs I just got my hands on!

TTFN.

First Real Blog Post!

This will be my official blog for Jen-Tran.Com. I will be updating this quite frequently, I hope, on just random stuff. I really don't have a clue as to what to do with this blog yet. I know a lot of people do reviews, features, etc but I haven't got much plan. I just wanted to have a blog since this is my personal webspace -_-.

Since I have nothing else to say... I'm just going to highlight all the fixes and additions to the site:

• Added Recommendation page, Links page, Download Section, Blog
• Download section is slowly being populated with my older templates and wallpapers. Ill add new stuff when I have time.

Future fixes I have in store for this site:

• Move this blog page as the main focal point of the site.
• More download selections
