Title says it all…

The last couple of months have been really hectic. been working really hard on getting the Radio Comix Sites more up to date. being a web monkey is sure taxing. In that time as well, I’ve had to completely rebuild my computer system. Good news is that I’m finally off Win2k and onto Win7. Bad news is that many of my programs are so severely out of date that I’m effectively crippled when it comes to some things I do on the computer. It’ll just take time for me to earn the money to get me back onto solid footing. Hince why I’m working so hard to get this web-site thing taken care of, to the exclusion of my art and comics. Once it goes into mataince, I’ll be back on the comics.

At least, that’s the hope.

So, I’ve been poking around with WordPress/ComicPress lately fiddling with the multi-user function. I have to say, I’m liking what I’m seeing.

In the long run – merging things together will make for great management happiness on my end. I mean I *can* do the work. But making it streamlined and easy to maintain makes it for much easier work in the long run and less stress about things like updating and other management things that tend to bog one down over time. And let’s be honest here, I’m not exactly the most punctual of people here. ^.^;

But this leaves a big question on wither I should move WoWBlanc/ over to the new system.

Part of me is “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it”. Aventures of Blanc is sitting happly it’s it’s little sub directory, minding it’s own busniess.

But another part is “It’ll only be more difficult if you do it later”.

What to do, what to do ….

Here’s where things stand.

Commissions (outstanding):

JAnderson: Almost done! Just have the hammock to do and a couple of final touches. Will need a place to ship it too soon.

Reto: Done (some time ago) – waiting for email response.

Chmarr: Need to reinstall programs. Model’s Done, Rigging’s Done. It’s getting all the textures painted that’s killing me. ^.^

Theo: Need to start, but have ideas rolling around my head.

Website:
Need to backup and update all websites (Personal, AoB, all Radio sites). This will be a joy and a half. ~.~
Need to update ad boxes on Radio site.
Need to create ads for Duncan & Mallory and Coyote.

Comics:
Ebin & May: Episode 38 written and laid out. Blue line pages have been printed. Now I just need to do the art.

Adventures of Blanc: Yes, I know it’s been forever since I last updated. Xmas, followed by 3 weeks of plague followed by me messing up my hands has not helped. But it’s on the docket, right after I get JAnderson’s commission taken care of. Sorry for the wait.

Am I missing anything? o.0

It’s that Time Folk! FC2010! I (Smudge) and Baron will be there!

Okay here’s the final layout of what I’m bringing to the artshow at Further Confusion.

I and Baron will be helping Radio Comix with their table this year, so please, stop by and say hello. Yes, he and I will be doing sketch books there. Maybe let Radio have some of our prints for sale too depending on table space.

Our panels this year are –

Where Does It Come From?
Your mastermind villain dominates the land from his castle of solid iron atop dank dungeons and armories deep in the earth. Who mined all that iron, and where was it smelted? How was that cubic mile of dirt hauled away, and why didn’t anyone notice? A good world-builder should be able to answer questions about the origins and implications of characters, artifacts, and infrastructure.
Time: Friday, Jan 22 08:00 PM To 09:30 PM in Empire
Panelists: David Bryant, Baron Engel, Christina “Smudge” Hanson, James Lowry

Fashion Tails
Fashion can encompass any body covering or decoration. Aside from practicalities such as cleanliness or environmental protection, it sends social signals to one’s fellows: status, class, beauty, ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, or a host of others. A good world-builder should put considerable thought into sartorial fads and traditions, and can use them to great effect in scene-setting.
Time: Saturday, Jan 23 08:00 PM To 09:30 PM in Empire
Panelists: David Bryant, Baron Engel, Christina “Smudge” Hanson, James Lowry

Coffee, Tea, and Memes
Come see the panelists hold forth on nearly every subject under the sun, including topics suggested by the audience. Listen to anecdotes, discussion, and debate, and put in your two cents’ worth—but keep it short, because a new topic will be up in just a few minutes! Modest refreshments will be provided.
Time: Sunday, Jan 24 08:00 PM To 09:30 PM in Empire
Panelists: David Bryant, Baron Engel, Christina “Smudge” Hanson, James Lowry

Please come – You’ll have a great time and engage your brain in world-building all at the same time! ^.^

Am getting better – pumping me full of meds seems to help. Trying to take it easy and under wraps before con as best as I can.

So – sorry for the quiet on this end of things.

Holidays always throws me for a loop, my dag hogging my machine over Christmas so he can play wow besides the point. lol

Anyways – I’ve got a big convention (for me) coming up in a week or so, so I’ll probably not be able to post anything until then. But you never know, I might be able to sneak something in. Don’t count on it though. At least until this con is over, count on Blanc returning to his regularly scheduled sporadicness. ^.^;

**and yes, Blanc did make his T9 set for both DPS and Tank before the end of December. Now the joy of gearing up all my other 80’s lol… I play WoW waaaaay to much.
