I'm now 25. That's 15 years from 40, 25 years from 50, and 55 years from probable death barring injury or illness. w00t!

I had a fun time at A&G Ohio this past weekend. Thanks to everyone who stopped by my table and visited the Photoshop panel.

I was very pleased with the setup we had at A&G, and its something I hope to do at future conventions. I had my laptop facing out toward people visiting my booth, and my tablet facing me, so that people could see what I was painting WHILE I was painting it. I enjoyed doing demonstrations and answering questions as I worked. What's more, I didn't feel guilty for working at a con! Previously I was isolating myself behind my laptop and no one could see what I was doing and was hesitant to talk to me for fear of interrupting. Not a good setup.

Speaking of the tablet, there's a pixel gone bad smack dab in the middle of my cintiq display. Its red. It's very small. I called wacom about it and I guess it's not going to get any better or worse, and cannot be returned for one pixel that's not gone completely bad. Since its shining red, not black, it's partially functioning. As stated, it's VERY small. It's ONE pixel on a decent resolution of LCD moniter, but... I get to look at it for as long as I use this tablet. Joy!

I've been getting quite a bit of work done of late. The third tutorial book is picking up full force, and Akiri had a 5 day weekend to work on Flight Rising. Seeing all his progress is very motivating and makes me want to work faster. The project is coming along nicely!

Kudos to Anon on their peaceful IRL protest of Scientology. I was genuinely impressed with their conduct. Protests such as what was seen on Feb 10th will go much farther toward promoting a cause then internet crimes ever will.
