Time and time again, I marvel at how far we have come.

While a statement like that usually is followed by outlandish praise for getting around to finally not oppressing people, what i really mean is that we have not manage to wipe ourselves off the face of the planet. yet. Give us time. We are still perfecting our methods on destroying EVERYTHING else we come into contact with. If there was a God, He might just sit back and enjoy the show. After all He could re-boot at anytime, right?

Next up, we are creating a complete Land Fill of our personal outer space. Look at that image. Remember how you think of Earth as pristine wonder floating in an unadulterated space? Not so fast. That is what we are doing next. Soon, we will be tunring the moon (or at least Venus) into a garbage dump... I mean, if we can't put up a condo there...then let's use it for something else.

Yes, I have been hibernating :)

I haven't been posting as much as I would have like to lately... mostly because I have been busy working on a ton of stuff that isn't ready to be uploaded. But for posterity sake, here is a list of things that I am working on:

1. I am working on new issues of SNWJ. I am redoing the cover of "Fulcrum" transforming it into more of what I originally had in mind. After attending ComicCon... I have a ton of new ideas :)

We have found that this solution works:

#primary ul {
    position: static;
    text-align: center;
}


#primary li {
    display: inline;
    font-size: 100%;
    margin-right: 5px;
    float:none;
}

#primary a {
    display: static;
    float:none;
}

Eight years ago today Drupal 1.0.0 was released. It's been a big year for Drupal, another big release with Drupal 6, a lot of awards, and a lot of recognition. The project has had some notable departures, promotions, and the addition of many great contributors and users. Happy Birthday to the Drupal project and its amazing community.

I really love Flashnode ! The way that it makes adding Flash to your drupal site is a no brainer. Also, the fact that you can do two essentail things with it; makes it a killer module:

1. Flash node input filter
2. Passing Flashvars to your Flash movie

i have been working on a site for a client and I needed to be able to change the color of a bitmap over a duration of time... oscillating back and forth (redundant, yes, I know) over a period of time. Several years ago, I did this with Veronique's site and the effect was that her website was "breathing" ... I am more interesting in subtle changes to a visual field than rapid fire (think Eno's brilliant Video paintings; rather than MTV) So, here is the ColorClass that I made for you to use (remember to change the package path when you use it!):
