The more astute among you may have noticed something new to the left side of this blog, the rest of you will probably see what I am talking about but assume it has always been there.
I am, of course referring to our shiny new logo, which has scaled down alot better than I had anticipated. Who put that dashing image together? Why, it was me. Yes, yes, you could now say that I could do all of the work on zombietopia single handedly, I've previously disclosed reasons for which tetris' services are entirely obsolete next to mine, and as far as you guys know the same is true of Balai's 'talents'. All this coupled with that fabulous image I believe to be conclusive evidence that there isn't anything that I can't do.
In the event you would like a closer look at my dark handiwork certain contingencies have been put into place to facilitate your needs. I would like to make it clear now though that the logo is subject to change, if nothing else the hat and beverage will likely replaced for others when ever I feel like it. Not for any particular reason, Just the way I drew them on makes it fairly easy for those two to be changed and I think it'd be funny. Plus I like to screw with people.
Seriously though, don't be too surprised if that logo does change, like all artists I really don't like my own work, although unlike most artists I'm not a very good artist. I also happen to know several good artists who I'm sure would be more than willing to have a crack at mocking a logo up.
Hmmm, this post is starting to sound a little down. You should all go and check out the world of goo soundtrack to offset the emo vibes.

Internal organs redux
In a strange reversal of roles I've managed to go an entire week without posting and Balai has made an update. Scary, I know.
Don't worry, though the title may suggest otherwise, this isn't another post that will feature me talking you through my digestive tract and its' various ills. Instead, I have taken the liberty of distilling a long story into shorter, more easily digestible one. I spent Friday night and the wee hours of Saturday morning in the hospital.
And there you go. I told you. Short version.
What was I doing the rest of the week? Isn't it obvious? I'll give you another short version: DLC for Castle Crashers was released.

Wizard-tastic
So, although I was somewhat tired on Wednesday, I was still capable of getting some work done.
Unlike, it would seem, Iced who has informed me that he was busy "making whistles from pen lids".
Now, however, that my tiredness has been dispatched I can be happy knowing that I'm working hard on all the things which are probably relevant to the task at hand.
This may or may not include: Fixing networks, repairing computers and drinking bucket loads of coffee.
I guess if I keep this up I'll probably suffer what shall henceforth be called a 'Wednesday' or major tireds for those less accustomed to replacing scientific words.
Anyway as the blog post's title states, I have in fact been looking at a lot of wizards.
I'll let you decide what that means.
Actually now that I think about it that's not a good idea but, hey what's the worst you can come up with.

Spare computer, brain cells all in use.
After around 45 minutes of cleaning and assembling I had finally cleaned and re-assembled the pieces of an older computer that had been lurking in my house.
I wont bore you with specifics but, it took over 62GB worth of music and has still not used more than 10 percent of it's total space.
so now I'm armed with the next side task.
Getting a team suite installed and working on said machine. So not only am I modelling, I'm also sorting this out, and if I do say so myself, I'm having an excellent time.
On a different note, I'm also testing other modelling programs and trying out different texture methods, hopefully I can find something that suites the teams needs soon as I'm getting quite close to finishing some of the models I have.
Lastly, I've just stripped Ice of all of the post in this year belonging to him...

Of plug sockets and feet
Some people have clumsy hands, I have clumsy feet. I have spent the last half an hour or so getting down some ideas in our wiki about instrument based weaponry, which I'm fairly sure I have mentioned here before in passing - don't ask - then, somehow, I managed to kick the plug socket under my desk. BAM! Everything gone.
Oh well, I'll have a sulk for a bit then just redo it all.
It appears that we are currently still having trouble breaking the two posts a week milestone, I blame my cohorts, who spend way too much of their time diligently working on content and no where near enough time on forcing their unenlightened opinions on anyone and everyone willing to read them. Slackers.
I don't like to brag - which, as we all know is a synonym for: I do like to brag - but I recently figured out that 70% of the posts made on this blog in 2008 were by me. Conversely they only make up 20% of the relevant posts made on this blog last year.
