Room for Improvement

October 20th 2008

I'm really need to improve this whole update regularly thing. I half blame it on more important commitments such as school, family, life etc. but I have to admit, I have been fiddling around with 'Sims City™ Societies." Quite good, I'd certrainly reccomend it if you love things like Rollercoaster Tycoon, Sims 2 or Zoo Tycoon. Or if you just feel like blowing up a city ^~^

I'm also thinking of opening an artfolio, but I've decided to hold back on that and focus on this site :) There are a few things I added. Tutorials, An old, broken, Blog style web layout recoded etc. I've also been meaning to add more cornered backgrounds, some colouring ins on the site and there's a few magazine clippings I have that I've been meaning to make collages out of. I'm also getting around to a layout change.

As for my semi-personal life: Hmm, lets see, Netball try-outs, Random school excursions. We get to make a web page at school. At first I was really stoked, then I realised we're using a decade old program and we're not supposed to use html x.x

Better Rap it up, don't really like long posts. Au Revoir! (not too sure that's how you spell it) Mindi ;)

Drat.

My Daily Grumble: Though, me too is guilty of using Firefox most the time, it annoys me when you can have a perfectly fine looking site layout on one browser, and the same one totally destroyed on the other :/ For this annoying reason, I have to temporarily take down the 'Simple style' web layouts. They're broked X(

On a much happier note, I've got 4 days left of Term 3 before spring holidays :) As usual this should mean more content and tutorials will be added. I did add some colour schemes/colour palletes and made the goodies layout the same as the main :D Oh and I did a flower collage, made out of real flowers and then scanned into the computer. It can be found here.

September 13th 2008

I'm now officially 13, as of about 15 days ago. I got the graphics pad I wanted!!! Won't bother going into everything else I got as you probably don't care. So there's this new layout. Pretty different to most I've done. The fairy's a bit wonkytated, but I like it, it's well, different. So there's two more photoshop tutorials. And I've fixed the 'site' section. You can now see all the previous layouts and learn a little bit more about me if you want lol. I'm considering getting cutenews or wordpress or something to make blogging a little bit easier. And now I've got a fair amount of goodies I'm going to work on tutorials and website layouts for everyone to use. I think I'm then going to try learning some basic myspace stuff :/ My Dad also told me about this new software out that lets you create quirky online games, so there's something to save for. I guess that's about it! Tata mindi xx

The Forgotten Hiatus

23rd of August

Ugg, haven't posted for a while. Every semester I get this random handful of assignments where I don't have a life for the next couple of weeks o_O But I completely forgot to put up a big 'Open Hiatus'. Anyway, I'm expecting one or two more assignments (got to paint my woodwork thing tomorrow) but then I should be back. I've added three new blends (one's supernatural :o) and this super-awesome-useless-thing. Well, I was experimenting with photoshop and managed to mix up this groovy little thing... but then had no idea what to do with it. So I put it under textures and bases if you're interested. I might even make a tutorial for it :). The next layout I decided I want to be pink and green. With no updates box (it annoys me). This one's very orange :D some would say too orange. I've also what I want to save up for. A tablet/graphics pad thingy. One of those gadgets that let you draw onto the computer thing. I'm sure there's plenty more I've been meaning to say but I can't think of anything :/ so I'll just leave you all with this little reminder. IT'S LESS THAN A WEEK TILL MY 13TH!!!! :DMindi
