What's New

2003-08-17	Holy macaroni, I added another image of crappy doodles to the Analog Art gallery.
2001-10-13	Added an Informal Reviews area to the Junk section. Added a review of D-Link's USB FM Radio software. Moved my Pyro 1394 Drive Kit impressions to the new reviews area.
2001-02-24	Renamed glob to apply.
2000-12-31	Added a simple glob program to the Junk section.
2000-12-20	Added a link to my ansi2pcx program in the Junk section.
2000-12-02	More new old stuff: added Base Converter to the Junk section.
2000-11-22	Added "Gong-Li" to the Digital Art Gallery. Since I haven't gotten around to making anything new recently, I guess I'll just post old stuff instead. (Hey, "if you haven't seen it yet, it's new to you!")
2000-08-08	Added a new sketch to the Analog Art gallery.
2000-07-17	Changed a lot of stuff under the hood to take advantage of the fantastic program WebProcessor. There shouldn't be any noticeable changes. Some links might be broken, though, so let me know if there are any problems.
2000-07-15	Threw away the Sketchbook page and most of the junk on it. There are now separate Digital Art and Analog Art galleries. Added "Seashells," "Lanfinger," and "Pumpkinhead" to the Digital Art Gallery. Changed most of the thumbnails to use relevance-enhanced image reduction.
2000-07-08	Added simplistic Blackjack and Draw Poker games to the Junk section. I made them for fun last year but had forgotten about them.
2000-05-24	Man, I haven't touched this site in ages...
1999-12-26	Added ANSi Art Gallery to the Artwork section. Also updated my class schedule for the upcoming spring semester.
1999-09-07	Added How to Color Digital Line Art to the Artwork section.
1999-08-21	Added How to Scan Line Art the Obsessive Way, accessible through the Artwork section. Yes, it's serious; no, it's completely useless.
1999-08-04	Added a hit counter to the Home page.
1999-07-27	More site maintenance. Weeded out some of the poorer doodles from the Art Gallery page and moved them and the "Analog Art" section to the new Sketchbook page. Added seven new scans. Completely removed "Four Filtered Faces" and the 1998-11-18 scan. (No one will miss them.) Modified the Junk page slightly. Rearranged the text-based links on all pages. Cascading style sheets are used more now to control layout and text formatting.
1999-07-13	Performed general site maintenance. Changed the fonts; the preferred serif and sans-serif fonts are now Microsoft's "Georgia" and "Verdana" respectively.
1999-06-11	Posted my summer class schedule.
1999-06-03	Added four new sketches to the "Analog Art" section on the Art Gallery page.
1999-05-28	I was planning to scrap the entire site and to rebuild it from scratch, but laziness overcame me. Instead: New navigation sidebar. Restructured the Home page slightly. Archived the old look in the Junk section. Also restructured the About... and Artwork sections slightly; the former Artwork page is now on a separate Art Gallery page. Added "Lamborghini Countach" to the Art Gallery page. Removed John Conway's Game of Life due to its erratic behavior in some browsers. Removed the "Miscellaneous" section from the About Myself page. Posted my upcoming fall class schedule. Updated the Links page. Minor updates to other pages.

1998-01-29	Updated and slightly reformatted the Class Schedule page.
1998-01-20	In some crude, self-centered observance of this site's first anniversary for being online, put up a copy of the original homepage, accessible through the Junk section. Kind of pathetic how little has actually changed in a year, isn't it?
1998-01-10	Added Junk section and a few notes on math to go along with it. Expanded the Current Gripes page. Added "Globs o' Goo" to the Artwork page.
1998-01-08	Did general site maintenance. Implemented cascading style sheets to an extremely limited degree. Added a side note to the How Not to Draw page. Minor updates to the About This Site and Site Map pages.
1998-01-07	Added "Heart of Darkness" to the Artwork page.
1998-01-03	Added "Little Guy #2" to the Artwork page.
1997-12-29	Four months of stagnation at this site, and what do I have to show for it? Not much, unfortunately. Updated the Class Schedule page for the upcoming spring semester. Also added "Computer" to the Artwork page.
1997-09-06	Added yet another untitled sketch to the Artwork page. Reformatted the Class Schedule page some more and color-coded it a bit. Pastel-icious!
1997-09-05	By request, changed the format of the Class Schedule page slightly. Also signed up for another unit.
1997-08-28	It's that time of year again: updated my Class Schedule page.
1997-08-20	Added "Sigh" image to the Artwork page.
1997-08-05	Added JavaScript rollover to the navigation bar.
1997-08-04	Modified the navigation sidebar slightly. Added preliminary fall timetable to the Class Schedule page.
1997-07-27	Tweaked the How Not to Draw page slightly, as for some reason Netscape Navigator 3.x was not displaying the last step correctly. Still haven't figured out exactly why... Sigh.
1997-07-26	Added How Not to Draw page, accessible from the Artwork page. Could this mark the coming of real content to this pathetic site? Don't bet on it.
1997-07-12	Changed the look for the navigation bar; can't tell if it's an improvement. Added "Oh No, More Filtered Faces" to the Artwork page. Changed "Thistle Panel #7" to "Dark Thistle Panel #7" due to an incompatibility under 256-color mode.
1997-07-01	Removed the navigation sidebar from the "Adventures of the Smiley-Face Warrior" pages to make everything fit better for those actually using a 640×480 screen resolution. Also added a new piece of... art, I guess, to the Artwork page.
1997-06-04	Cleaned a bunch of stuff out of the stagnating Links page and updated the logo. Added more mindless (and really ugly) doodles to the Artwork page. Changed the Class Schedule page slightly.
1997-05-31	Finally replaced the Jack Skellington image on the Home page with a drawing of myself. Changed the background and colors of the Home page. (No, this isn't the "new design for the site"; not yet, anyway.) Accordingly updated the Artwork page for the "Stick Boy" drawing. Minor updates to the Links page.
1997-05-26	Almost everything has been updated: added "The Adventures of the Smiley-Face Warrior" and a new sketch to the Artwork section; updated and slightly reformatted the About This Site page; added a couple of new links to the Links page and fixed a few URLs; replaced my spring 1997 courses with my upcoming summer ones on the Class Schedule page; updated the Site Map accordingly. Phew!
1997-05-21	Actually, nothing's new. It's all old. Yes, I am aware that I haven't touched anything on this site for over a month, but I will update it soon, I promise. All apologies to those foolish enough to frequent this page. Look forward to (dread would be more applicable) "The Adventures of the Smiley-Face Warrior" and maybe a new design for the site.
1997-03-27	Finally figured out my geek code and added it to the About Myself page. Also slightly changed the format for the weight color key.
1997-03-10	Added update information for the Current Gripes and Bookmarks pages on the Home page.
1997-02-17	Added thumbnails for the ANSi collections on the Artwork page. Added "Argh!" image to the Current Gripes and Artwork pages.
1997-02-13	Reduced the dimensions of the background image to the Home page to reduce its file size. Also fixed an anti-aliasing problem with some of the side-bar buttons.
1997-02-11	Removed the Past Class Schedules page and added "Past Classes" section to the Class Schedule page instead. Why can't I make up my mind? Also credited the HTML Reference Library on the About This Site page.
1997-02-08	Reformatted the Class Schedule and added Past Class Schedules page.
1997-02-06	Rearranged the layout of the Home page slightly. Added What's New page to keep the Home page from becoming too cluttered.
1997-02-04	Changed the format of the "What's New" section on the Home page.
1997-02-02	Adjusted background to the Home page so it dithers better on 256-color displays. It still comes out awful, but at least people can figure out what it is now. Well, the really creative people, anyway...
1997-01-30	Changed the navigation side-bar slightly.
1997-01-25	Added course titles to the Class Schedule page.
1997-01-24	My Berkeley account can now be fingered through the About... pages. I also added a "Miscellaneous Information" section to the About Myself page. The format to the Links page has been updated slightly, and the format of the Bookmarks page is now consistent with the rest of the site.
1997-01-20	Everything.
