I’ve removed a lot of the noise from the theme. This includes all of the gradients and many of those nasty, sharp lines. Put Categories and Time at the top of each post, with Tags and Comments at the bottom. Made both smaller. Put everything on search results page. Added links to Technorati and del.icio.us… Continue reading New Theme Update

Pidgin 2.1 UI Ideas

The window has a minimum size which prevents UI elements from being cut off, the text formatting has been collected into a drop-down menu, and it generally looks much… Continue reading Pidgin 2.1 UI Ideas

It’s ironic: I spend days sorting and reducing the number of clothes I’ve accumulated over the years, but then just today I go out and spend $100 dollars – mostly on clothes. It’s not illogical, as I need these clothes for work, but it is ironic… and it makes me a little sad. I hope… Continue reading UBC CS Button Results

Got my tablet sorta-working in Linux. A quick sketch, over a photo. I also finally got hugin installed on Gentoo! Hello wonderful world of panoramas! (Note: each ~2MB) To create this panorama, I used 5 photos I had taken when I was at Granville Island, a long time ago, followed this tutorial, and used the… Continue reading Finally…
