DISNEY FINE ART.

Found on the internets: Disney fine art! I am neither an art connoisseur (I’m absolutely far from being one) nor a Disney fan (I grew up on The Adventures of Tin-Tin, Eke! The Cat, Denver The Last Dinosaur, Dinky Dog, and Sonic the Hedgehog) nor do I even buy art, but these pieces are too beautiful to not lust after (too bad they cost so much. The first three are $595 each and the Cheshire Cat one is $295):

OH HAI, CUPCAKE!

Another new theme, something I’m hoping to stick to for a couple of months. Not totally done yet, as I have to edit the CSS for my comments and then I validate my coding. *cries*

Thoughts?

PS: This layout will most likely look like shit on IE. I tested my localhost version on IE and the Twitter and MyBlogLog scripts don’t seem to work. Bah.

PPS: I made the cupcake; it’s my birthday cupcake with a cherry instead of a candle. Heehee.

Edit - Code validated. I really should aim for xHTML 1.0 Strict.

HALPZ, I’M STUCK IN WWW CIRCA 2003!

Day 2 of Dreamweaver class and this is what we’re doing:

TABLES

Tables.

Now I have nothing against tables. In fact, I love tables. They’re nice to put things on and though it’s been proven that they’re not needed to properly eat a meal (because under certain circumstances— say, when you find yourself in a remote island with no electricity, no running water, and no cellular reception— your lap, one of your hands or any steady surface would do), they still make things a hell lot easier.

But seriously, who still uses tables in webdesign? And why does this goddamn school feel the need to devote four precious hours to this outdated bullshit? When we could be spending our time learning something relevant, like, I don’t know, Flash pre-loaders? CSS sprites? CSS-based navigations? Global warming? The plight of drunken elephants in India??? ANYTHING but goddamn tables!

I’ve just been PWOT-ed. I half-expected our instructor to tell us to incorporate glitter graphics and animated butterfly gifs into the site we made today.

QUICK ENTRY TO GET IT OVER WITH.

I promised lover an entry on something, but this insufferable heat has been keeping me from properly organizing my thoughts. Everyday, when I wake up, I ask myself: have I died and gone to hell? Cos it sure is hot today! Gatdamn!

It’s summer, my favorite season. Back in college this meant the beach, drinking sprees, and out-of-town trips. This year, it seems like I’m going to spend summer in the city, getting ridiculous farmer tans from having to walk fully-clothed under the sun. Not happy.

I’ve been meaning to change layouts (the same way I’ve been meaning to work on a theme for helgaweber.com) and I came up with this 5-10 minute thing last Monday (I wanted something summer-y):

Except I can’t seem to work a header/theme around it. Fail.

My code needs cleaning, too. It was so much easier to work on shit with coffee and cigarettes and in my underwear.

You can’t tell, but I’m RRY frustrated.

I’VE BEEN HIT BY THE BLOGGING LAZIES.

Two awesomazing Photoshop actions:
