All James, All The Time. [such as he is. -- Ed.]
Would you all do me a favour and look at my artwork gallery — specifically to tell me if my images look murky and dark?
The reason is that I was looking at my stuff on a couple of different computer monitors today and I noticed that things look exceedingly darker than on my Mac.
I had [...]
Okay, so I did a quick-and-dirty overhaul of roadkilltoad.com. It’s still boring as fuck, but now it looks okay. Cohesive, anyway.
And now you can find my so-called art, photography, and music on the main site. I’m not sure what to do with the writing section, though.
I’m thinking of adding a [...]
Well, I spent a few hours tonight resizing, adjusting, and posting some of my artwork to a new section on roadkilltoad.com.
You can find the new gallery here: http://roadkilltoad.com/artwork.
If you click on an illustration, it will take you in reverse chronological order through my 3D computer artwork — eventually, back to the first 3D [...]
So. Wednesday. Seems like Wednesday should elicit some kind of important blog post, doesn’t it? Well it does to me. But I got nothing. So deal.
For a few months I did “Video Wednesday”, where I posted a music video I’d found on YouTube. But that got to be a PITA, so I [...]
I don’t remember how I came across this link, but it cracked my shit up.
Some of you may have noticed this disgusting epidemic that’s been running rampant as of late. Hot chicks with douchebags. Personally, seeing some super hotty with a troll-like butterball, with plucked eyebrows, spray on tan, 3 lbs of hair gel and [...]
So I just got back from spending umpteen bazillion dollars (okay, eighty) on art supplies. Pens, coloured pencils, and a big ol’ sketchbook — all for the intended purpose of finally doing the fricking illustrations for my uncle’s children’s book. That is a project that’s been sitting on the back burner [simmer on low [...]
I’m so frustrated right now that I could chew nails and spit tacks. This stupid website is making me realize in painful detail that I haven’t done any web design to speak of for a lot of years. Like, since 2001.
I seem to have forgotten all that I knew — as little [...]
This is what impulse shopping does to a person.
Brain: HEY, LET’S BUY A WEBSITE!
Fingers (TYPING): WOO HOO!
Brain: AND LET’S GIVE IT A REALLY CREATIVE AND INSPIRATIONAL NAME!
Fingers: ROADKILL TOAD!
Brain: WHAT THE HELL? WAIT FINGERS! NO!
Fingers: R-O-A-D-K-I-L-L T-O-A-D *ENTER*
Brain (a la Darth Vader in Episode III): NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Fingers, what have you [...]
So I’m thinking of maybe shutting down my Capture the Sky group at Flickr once it reaches 300 people. I barely make time for it anymore — and hell, there’re 265 people there already. But with the number of photos being posted (3,203 as of this moment) I’ve had to reduce the [...]
Yes, I know the site’s front page is ugly as sin. Uglier, in fact.
I don’t care.
Much.
Fact is, I just yoinked it from Dreamweaver’s 99-cent template bin and tweaked it, and yes, I am responsible for the nigh-babypoo colours.
Eesh.
Can we say that I am lacking in inspiration?
Yes, yes we can.
Anyone out there who feels [...]
