Oh crap, has it been that long already?

A friend of mine once said that once you hit 18, the years fly by. Until you get married and have children, then it seems like days never want to end. I was just reading through my older posts, the last one dated for the end of January.

Holy shit.

I have not been dilligent in my pursuit of INTERNET FAME/NOTORIETY. I suppose having a Twitter account convinced me that those micro-updates were all the blogging I need. Well, 140-character posts aren't really my thing. I do enjoy Twitter, very much. I like being able to tell the Internet from my phone that I am currently pooping because I don't really like to bring my laptop with me to the can, but as an actual substitute to blogging, Twitter doesn't compare. It's less like "Micro-blogging" (is what they call it) and more "Facebook Updates..for your phone!" Still fun, though.

Anyway, as quick progress check: I have, since January 26, posted seven comics on my site, and am kicking around t-shirt ideas in my sketchbook that I will post for an audience-participation bit. Sweet. Depressingly, though, my brother's computer has been terminally borked and now he is depending on my comics machine to finish term papers and shit. This upsets me. I know he paid 18,000 some-odd bones for his education, but dammit, I have a readership to build. It's not going to happen if I'm not able to post consistently and reliably. On the other hand, I've had an offer for an illustration job that I need to jump on, a personal project I'd like finish within the next few months or so, and still more site tweaks to make, so the comics appear more nicely. I made the kind-of-grave mistake of allotting a space for the comics before I ever decided on the format, so with every update, after changing the dpi from 300 to a web-friendly 72, I have to compress it further in the HTML so it will fit in the table that was regrettably made before the comic ever was, making lines appear and disappear. Not the best of design decisions ever made. Certainly not the worst, either (ie: Apple's choice of laptop case material and iPhone's "unscratchable" surface)
So I signed up for a YouTube account, so that I can upload the videos made with my sexy, sexy new camera. I may post them here, effectively transforming this place into a "vlog", a word I care less for than "blog". Oh well.
Until next time.
