New Gallery
November 25th, 2009

I’ve added a new Sketchbook/Fun gallery. It will highlight sketches, doodles, and other fun things. Right now, you can check out a funny Mother’s Day gift, featuring my Nephew.

Avast, Mateys!

Oh, eBay pirates are fun. I’ve been fighting them for years. They like to sell my paper models, and the photos that they use to promote their auctions are my own. They don’t take them from this website but from my Flickr photo album.

Most pirates leave the Disney Experience logo and copyright notice intact, but place their own logo or trademark on top. They’re typically unwilling to Photoshop anything out or, better yet, build the models themselves and take their own photos. But, today, I finally found one who not only Photoshopped my logo out, but placed their own logo, in a similar design, on top of the area to help mask any imperfections. It’s a nice try, but that doesn’t stop me from reporting the violation.

While I design a better watermark for all 174 of my Flickr photos, I’ve made them private, and I have temporarily closed the 3-D art gallery.

Fickle

Yes, when it comes to layout designs for this website, I’m fickle. But, I’m very pleased with how it turned out, so it should stay for quite a long time.

There are still a few minor tweaks to make, but everything should basically be in its final form.
