And by the way...

[bajema]

I've gotten some work done on my site. I have about a billion things going on right now. Trying to keep caught up before my ills return. There are a couple live journal people I just sent snail mail to. I've got some events coming up in the summer. Doot doot doot. More on all that later.

a new bajema.com is like internet christmas... I get all excited unwraping the pages...

[bajema]

I like the way that sounds :)

Nice - And I really enjoy being able to easily find and navigate to the artworks on those days when I just want to see art.

[bajema]

Thank you. Yes, I gave in to critism and tried to mingle my love of maze designs with the ability to cut through the shit and just see the art stuffs.

[mykeamend]

Maze designs are neat... especially as an option.

It is just that there are probably a lot of people who are looking for your writings, or your artwork - one or the other. You have enough of a following that you need an easy to navigate site over an artsy one (though your mingling of the two is perfect).

Personally - as much as I like reading, and as much as I like your writing, I won't read too much online until I can sit my monitor in my lap like a book or print it all out without having to hop pages.

One thing I would really like to see would of course be an online store.

(speaking of - if the offer is still there for that print in return for the paid account way back - "the Priestess" is the one that would best fit my living room)

[bajema]

The offer is indeed still there. Priestess it is then.

I'm the same way with reading. I print a great many things from online, but only if I can find it in an easy to print form. I'm doing the do-it-yourself books from cafe press though. I'd like to see what people think of my writing when its not presented with any art or strange web designs.

Hello, Miss Blue,

Tzang and I are praying for you and your health. Been keeping him updated.

Yes, Armen here from Singapore, heh. I've changed my journal.

[bajema]

Well hello you ;) Thank you very much!

[bajema]

Yes, I made the step up from 800 x 600 to the next resolution. I want so badly to keep my site for all visitors but I just love having more space on my monitor. I put all the stuff already linked on my first page in that frame hoping those who get cut off from it won't feel jilted :(

[mykeamend]

It is those stupid huge control panels for the design programs that get me. If I have a 'standard' resolution - there is no room to work because of the panels or I have to constantly hide/unhide my tools. My browser toolbar, nav bar, location, and status bar take up a quarter of the screen... on 'small icon' setting nonetheless.

At 1600x1200, they are just the right size for me... but it irritates the hell out of me because I know that I will have to reset my resolution here and there to see things with the amount of pixelation and screen size that others might.... which pops all of my tools to new positions or leaves them off screen where I can't reach them.

[bajema]

As I've been learning photoshop I've found that to be a problem. Too many damn windows to deal with and I have limited space. The program I usually work with to do digital stuff has one menu bar along the left and one window at the right. I get annoyed with all the closing and opening of tool windows.

Totally off-topic, but I thought you'd want to see this. :/

That was a bit sobering considering that one of the icons is what I'm currently using for my own journal presently. But they were nice about it and did do the quick removal.

I'm not sure why people tell me I intimidate them. 5'6 with the voice of an ant. Just come ask me and I'll gladly say yes for the proper linkage. Free promotion is always welcomed.

Thanks for looking out.

Hmmm... is any of this persons stuff their own? It makes one wonder.
