Updates and Beta Awards.
last modified: Tuesday, December 12, 2006 (12:14:15 AM)
I've tried to make a few small and simple changes to my gallery over the last couple of weeks. Some were due in part to the Open House event and other changes were just long overdo.
1) The Giant Robo music video on the front page of our gallery is now playable in IE, not just Firefox.
2) I've taken time to update the links page with some more of my favorite websites. It's an on-going process because I always seem to forget what I need to add! >_< You'll probably see lots of familiar names on there:

3) I've changed the sub-page banner. Here's a random example:

That would be the Bob and Toni chibikins! Basically chibi puppet versions of us. I thought it was kinda cute. The WC logo image is now featured at the bottom of every page (as well as the bottom of the front page).
Like I said, simple changes but things I meant to do a long time ago. I also managed to update with a few new cels and stuff.

That chips away a little bit at the "waiting to be scanned and uploaded" pile.
I can't believe I won something in this year's Beta Awards! I'm just so thrilled and humbled ^__^ Thanks so much to everyone who voted for my entry in the Best Non-Anime category. I went ahead and made a special section in our gallery so it's easier to find:

Maybe future winners will go there too ^_~ hehe. Thanks Brian for handling the contest!
In other news, I haven't done any Christmas shopping yet. ^_^; Which is a little scary, since I plan to do it all online! @_@ But I have a few tricks up my sleeve. I think Senor is already done! He's always trying to show me up and make me look bad... grrrr.... XD
Aside from watching movies and trying to stay warm, nothing new has happened. The home improvements have been put on hold due to the cold weather. Kind of difficult to lay down wood flooring when your finger tips are a little numb. The house is very livable as it is. Having my dream kitchen was first priority anyway, everything else can wait. ;)
During Black Friday this year, we sat outside Best Buy for 10 hours and received a voucher for a 32" LCD HD television. We bought a $1,000 TV for only $470! Definitely worth the effort. I ended up playing Cooking Mama for most of that time. It's a tough but addictive little DS title.
Oh! I will not be doing the fruitcake exchange program this Christmas. Since the move, I'm hindered in my ability to ship out thank you gifts (I was slow enough last year! >_<) I also received a ton of fruitcakes last year, which was wonderful! But probably bad for my health, hehe. Thanks to everyone who participated last time. I will probably have the fruitcake fun next year tho, so don't throw out the ones you receive this year. ^_~ LOL (I'm not kidding tho...)
That about sums it up for now. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the holiday season. Take care!
