New Photos Added

Monday, March 26th, 2007

I have still yet to finish the gallery completely. I have, however, been snapping photos like crazy and adding them to the gallery. So when it does finally get finished at least it will have content. Anywho, these photos should explain this weekend and its events pretty well. So check out this weekend of adventure at gallery.axisds.com. I am currently in Fresno for a few days but will be returning to San Jose later this week. The free time that Spring break will be offering should provide for a some major work to get done. So be sure to check back sometime this week to see whats up. Until next time…

Lightbox Works!

So I got Lightbox.JS working last night. I’m totally stoked about that. I will give a full run down on its implementation and all the other Plogger related updates shortly. And fear not I promise I will write up my Google Calendar install as well. So as always… check back for those updates. Until then, check out how sweet Lightbox is (click image below)

Official Site Update Comming Soon!

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

So I have been doing a lot around here to really kick things up a notch. As of late I have made several minor updates and changes to the blog. Today was yet another day of progress in which I added another big element to my site, a photo gallery. As of now I have installed and started to tweak Plogger and added a subdomain gallery.axisds.com. Plogger is a great open source photo gallery that does just about everything you could want it to do and more. I then went ahead and installed two WordPress plugins to feed my Plogger gallery to WordPress. The first is a Plogger plugin that was created by Living Open Source. I found tuns of useful information there even though it was a bit on the advanced user side due to lack of more detailed descriptions. It also led me to the second plugin I installed called Light Box. Light Box basically just adds some cool viewing options that I find very useful for WordPress. Similar effects are in use at Digg.com with how they show YouTube videos and such. Anwyho, it is very late and I want some sleep so I am off to bed. I will continue to tweak it, make it fit my visual theme, and add more content so check back for the official v2.6 site release. As for now feel free to browse the current gallery at gallery.axisds.com and report back any bugs you might find.

I Fucked Up

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

Well I seem to have fucked up Wordpress but then I fixed it and now its ugly. But! I will fix it soon and it will be pretty again. So have no fear.

::Update::
I had managed to get things back to where they were and in some cases I have even made things better. If you happen to notice anything that seems to be out of place let me know.

Site Update 2.5.2

Monday, January 29th, 2007

I have updated the site in my attempt keep adding content. So my portfolio has evolved a bit with the addition of a new category and a new project. Future updates are likely to be school projects as I have a number of easy to format projects that will provide more content with less effort.

I also was playing around a bit this weekend as I have FINALLY kicked this cold. The fruits of my labor can be seen below in a prototype navigation bar. It is just a test but it shows lots of potential for implementation where needed.

Anywho, that is about it. It’s late, I have school tomorrow, and yeah. Before I go I must say a few things about upcoming music releases. Being a Fall Out Boy fan from way before they made it HUGE, I never thought I would like a new album this much. So forewarning, the new Fall Out Boy album Infinity On High is legit. I also recommend snagging a copy of the new Shin’s album Wincing the Night Away as it too is very well done. All right, that’s it. Night folks.

Site Update: 2.5.1

Monday, January 22nd, 2007

I have recently updated my portfolio site by adding an actual working portfolio. It’s been some time in the works and by no means is it finished, its just a step in the right direction. I don’t want to make any promises as to how quickly it will be updated to a more complete state but I think if I work at it in pieces over the next month I can have it done. There are a few lose ends to wrap up today and tomorrow in regards to finishing the complete update to 2.5.1 but things are looking promising.I have been trying to rap up this winter break with a strong push for productivity. I think that things are going well considering I have been a bit under the weather for the last week. As of now, everything seems to be in working order so give it a browse and let me know what you think.
