Colorful text

Ok i'm going to try something new, possibly even today. FuzzYspoOn of ludum dare gave me some code to help me change the color of my text. hopefully i'll be able to implement it later today. Example
Later that Day: I said some stuff. And this is what it was/is. The text coloring is working, but i'd like to limit the hues to a certain range.. which may take a little more effort. I slowed it down so people won't notice at first(hehe i'm sneaky) On another note, i learned stuff in math. Haven't eaten for the last.. 9 hours. I R hungry. and learned that my library carries books. Which you know.. i already Kind of knew but i never checked em' out or looked into any facet of the lending book thingy. Apparently most of them are online, so i might use them for java. :) They gave me the tools to learn, lets not focus on what classes i have and what books i'm actually reading. It's there. that's what matters.

I also spent a large amount of time trying to fix up the DND section. Haven't touched story but the actual profiles. Technically the only ones that are up to date are clickies who was played by a good friend of mine, and Gray's whom i edited.

Archive

The projects section is probably going to stay the way it is for awhile.. i want to add descriptions with javascript, but i don't really want to take the time to learn javascript at the moment. If i run out of other things to do in the meantime i'll probably come back to it though.

I've decided to make my java calculator an applet so i could share it on here. figured i might get a little more use out of it that way. Plus it'll be something else to put up on my java projects section. Although i just got through the moving sprites section of a tutorial and now i'm in the Collision detection section. I haven't really built anything from it yet that involves any of my own creativity.. So i just don't feel right sharing. But the tutorial seems to be extremely well put together based on the other tutorials i've read up to this point. I'll post a link when i finally hit a point with it that i feel comfortable with sharing.

I think the Archive might be my next project, it takes like 64 kb's which is a lot for just text, i think these tables take up more space then is really efficient or smart. So i can atleast take the outer one out, i don't want to get started on it now though and find out it has become some great big thing. I'll save it for web dev day(Wednesday)

Dropbox = efficient

I fixed up my projects section, that arguable looks better now. I'm also setting up a dropbox for all of the computers in the house. It's pretty neat if you haven't heard of it before. It's like a free 2 gigs sitting out on the web that you can hook your computer up to. Then i put some files i have to edit constantly on there and drew a link from that to my grandmothers website. :) it's all kind of nifty. Now whenever i edit the file i don't have to move it between computer or upload it to the interenet, it's all done simultaniously.

Missed Game Dev day last week :( which is sadness. but i did a little on the website yesterday so i feel somewhat accomplished. It's raining pretty bad here right now not looking forward to class later.

Think Geek background

Well i spent over 4 hours today working on the website, which is nice after math i must admit. It needs progress in the long run and i like taking care of it in small installments instead of losing a few days to it..
Anyway i was trying to think of a new background image that could work for the website, help uniformity and cut down on the file size of the old one. Which really wasn't much of an issue. It's not like i don't have the space for it but having a lot of large images on my website is something i'd like to avoid as a practice. This way everything will load much faster, and people using phones can acess things much faster. Ideally someday i'd like to use this as a part of a portfolio and if anyone is going to check it out i'd imagine it'd be on a phone for the convenience of it. Anyway here is what i WANT the background to look like: Think Geek Rip-Off don't forget to scroll to the bottom!

I mean ideally it's not going to have the robots and the same color scheme, not because i don't like them.. Zombies and Robots are pretty awesome after all. But the people who made it had a pretty clever idea, and i'd feel wrong copying them to closely. But i do like the idea and would like ton incorporate it into my website when i can :)

Anyway, the people from Ludum Dare have been helping me out a lot recently on my web dev day's and thanks to them i'd like to think i'm making a lot of positive changes to the look and functionality of the website.
