New Gallery!

October 19th, 2008 by Callyn

Yaaaay! The gallery is now beautiful and not annoyingly difficult to use. Thanks, Mike! <3 I’m really starting to draw a lot more now, so I’ll be reorganizing my artwork and taking out some things that should not be there. Expect some new additions soon!

Callyn’s Adventure: RPG Maker game now online

October 4th, 2008 by Mike

So the game I made for Callyn using RPG Maker VX is now online!

The game is about 2-3 hours long and features music from two of my favourite SNES games (Chrono Trigger and Donkey Kong Country 2).

It features some pretty intense random-encounter dungeon mazes so don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Download Callyn’s Adventure.

I also organized the games a bit better and added a new one: Solitare programmed in VB.Net

Blog revamp

June 10th, 2008 by Mike

Hiya,

So I recently did a lot of updates to our blog. The most important: I imported all of the entries from my old blogs (unfortunately Callyn’s blog is long gone) off Blogspot and 1up. I’ll probably be creating a “best of” page eventually, but in the meantime, all of my old rants are there and categorized. Feel free to look through them if you want.

Also, you can now subscribe to this blog to get email updates! Horray! Hopefully someone can find value in that, I sure do.

and now for miscellaneous updates:

New Poems:

Let Me Take You There

More site updates!

May 25th, 2008 by Mike

There’s going to be a lot of updates over this particular summer because we have lots of time to do so. The poetry section is almost finished, now we just need to find the poems that Callyn wrote so we can start inputting them into that page. Keep on an eye on that, there will be poems showing up over the next few days. In the meantime:

New Site Design!

April 22nd, 2008 by Mike

Hi everyone! Seems like recently we’ve been doing a lot of updates to this site, this is a big one: a complete site redesign! Yes, gone is the ugly brown-green look for a nice looking blue design instead!Â

The bad news is that the website update didn’t go as smoothly as I’d hoped. There’s still a few improvements that have to be made such as the logo and a few styling errors. I was trying to start and finish the redesign tonight, but I’m starting to lose it, so I will have to finish the redesign with tweaks, etc. during the next week or so. Any feedback would be great.Â

I’m gonna go to sleep now.Â

Photo Gallery Overhaul!

March 19th, 2008 by Mike

Yay! We fixed the photo gallery!…Sort of.

The photo gallery hasn’t been updated for a long time so we added quite a few new photos, as well as some of Callyn’s drawings and artsy photos. I’m hoping to make it easier for others to upload photos and things so it happens more frequently :p

Also cool, the photo gallery has been threaded with a neat javascript trick called highslide. Navigating the photos is easier and flashier than before. Click on a photo thumbnail to see what I mean. Lemme know what you think!

A complete site redesign will happen when we get around to it, perhaps after school is over. Also, minor site updates coming later this month. I finally figured out how to get rid of the splash page, so shut up Justin.

If you want to check out a blog by a friend of mine, Nebetsu’s Yiddish Nebbish. (aka the blog of Steven Whitten-Dawson) is a pretty interesting thing to watch.

Site updates again!

January 14th, 2008 by Mike

Hi everyone,

A few minor site updates today! Here’s the list:

  •  Added a “challenges” page for information on how to challenge me or Callyn in a video game.
  • Gave “facebook” its own page and cleaned up the navbar a little bit
  • Added a favicon.

Keep an eye out for more updates soon!

HOBAG!

August 13th, 2007 by Callyn

With September rapidly approaching and the last frayed edges of another precious summer slipping through our fingers, there can only be one thing to look forward to: The gruesome death of Sarah Sidle.

FINALLY her annoying presence will be snuffed out forever, leaving Grissom to wallow in his agony before coming to his senses. She made him soft… vulnerable… counterproductive…. He needs to be FREE of her draining effect! Her clinging, whiny spirit shall no longer hinder your intelligence!! Go! Run free among the Lady Heathers of the world!! Crush the Sarah Sidles into oblivion, for they do not deserve your affection!!

Oh yeah, and some more reviews were added. Expect some more soon, including Zodiac, The Simpsons Movie, Chrono Trigger, and the like.
