Update: The Gallery

I don't know if I posted this but the lunchroom smells like Jenny Craig stir fry and my brain - it's the fuzzy. In any case, the gallery is well on it's way to being fully updated. I've re-uploaded everything but the icons and the resources - lets be honest, those are going to be a lengthy process so please be as patient as possible...not that I really care if you're impatient because nothing in my daily plan is going to change :P

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.

I know i should have fixed the gallery by now, and those of you clicking through to look at my icons are probably sick of getting a big fat nothing but that's not the point. The point is that I don't have time. Hopefully that will change soon (like maybe tonight) but, if not, you can at least count on the fact that sometime Saturday morning I will find the time. (Yes, I like italics today. My entire day has been about numbers and it's fun to use the letter buttons sometimes :P)

Crisis

Well, today I got the itch to update my g2 install and, as it seems to go this way everytime, i wasn't entirely surprised when I started getting error messages and nick informed me that I needed to delete and go for a fresh install.

Ladies and gents, that's what i'm doing.

All 1400 icons, all of the sets, the tutorials, the...everything...it all has to be re-uploaded, re-cagatorized and re...everything.

Fortunately, I'm working 9 and a half hour days...oh, wait, no - that's an unfortunately. Anyway, i'll get everything back up as quickly as I can. Tutorials first, then the small galleries, like vectors, etc...

icons100 Update

I posted batch three tonight. God am i starting to loathe this project.

Guess What I'm Posting For.

Yes, that's right, more updates.

Cheeky Resources Image Gallery: I'm not sure how this happened but, somehow I managed to have this great big image gallery and no Matt Damon??!?!?! I don't know how it happened and I think I probably personally owe the list an appology for ignoring one of it's decade long residents. So, with that, there's now a Matt Damon Gallery with 17 pages of yummyness (and a few faggy turtleneck pictures). And, yes, Matt Damon can pop collar. I don't personally know anyone who can pop collar and not look like a moron, so I'm proud of him and personally impressed. That and, last night I also updated the Justin Timberlake gallery because I had high hopes that whatever Black Snake Moan - no matter how fucked up a movie it turned out to be - might produce some good production stills with fatigues followed by me dying. They didn't, but I did find some other high-res shots so there you have it.

Icons 100 Challenge: I posted batch two of my icons100 challenge with 10 new Guys and Dolls Icons. As usual, I'm not particularly impressed but there you have it.

Delayed Update: So there have been a lot of male additions to the gallery and, in the spirit of fairness, and the fact that she's pretty, Olivia Wilde (The O.C. and, now, The Black Donnelly's) had been added and has her very own home in Cheeky Graphics. [NOTE: if you're reading this immediately after it's latest timestamp, the gallery is probably empty. I still need to make the upload.]

Updates!`

I've been lazing a bit on the update announcments over the past few days so I have a rather lot to make

Cheeky Images: Two new additions to the image gallery over the last few days - those Boston Boys have been killing me all over my TV so I went on a binge. Jonathan Tucker (Stateside and The Black Donnellys) and Bryan Greenberg (One Tree Hill and the soon-to-be October Road)

Cheeky Resources: Gilmore Girls bases are up to date for 7.15 - I Am A Kayak, Hear Me Roar! but I still haven't finished (or started, for that matter, 7.16 - Will You Be My Lorelai Gilmore?)

Cheeky Tutorials: I added this earlier this week because someone who shall remain nameless mentioned that they weren't clear on how to get that icy blue color just right so I thought I would write up a quick method tutorial. I don't know if it's the exact icy blue they were talking about but it is icy blue :)

Cheeky Graphics: I took on an icons100 challenge for Guys & Dolls (the movie) and I'm into my first batch - 10 Guys & Dolls Icons. Well, frankly, they suck, but that's kind of OK with me :) I have to admit though, I'm totally phoning in the stupid themes thing. "I uh, sure that could be about love...yeah...I meant it all along *shifty eyes*"

Project Update: In addition to continued work on The Light, my pursuit of learning G-Mesh in Illustrator, my icons100 challenge, updating my portfolio as I create portfolio worthy work, my off interest in re-skinning the site, i've been playing with hand sketching and manga in illustrator. So, ya know, just to keep you posted ;) Maybe i'll have to reopen the hentai project.

Updates

Some updates to Cheeky Resources Image Gallery - I ran across an OK gallery today and added a new album in the Males --> Celebrities section for Alex Pettyfer.

Also, did you know I had comment moderation turned on? Cuz I didn't...but apparently I did have comment moderation turned on and now all of your happy comments have been moderated :)

Bases/Cuts: I am finally caught up on my GG bases/cuts. This week I uploaded 7.11 - Santa's Secret Stuff, 7.12 - To Whom It May Concern and 7.13 - I'd Rather Be In Philadelphia. I also have the caps from 7.14 - Farewell, My Pet and I'm already weeding through them to pull out the ones i'd like to use.

Icons: A few really bad Gilmore Girls icons were added today. I also added a bunch of quote icons. I think those are probably the only that i'll be doing for a while (i.e., making quote icons) because I'm really having no luck with the regular icons once i've done the bases. Maybe when

the season is over i'll do a Season in Review series. :)

Image Gallery Updates

More images of Milo Ventimel....yeah...

Uplaoded

Lots of Updates

There are a lot of updates today. Obviously, it you're reading this, you probably scrolled down and noticed that I blogged about the obsessive amounts of light textures being used but, if you didn't, here is a link.

UFG: I added a new up for grabs banner today. It features Hilary Burton and Dan Radcliffe (one of the new shots from the naked play everyone is in such an uproar about :P) and, for now at elast, it's called due.
Cheeky Resources: Then, in addition to the other days additon of Hilary Burton, Bethany Joy Galeotti and some major updates to the Kristen Storms gallery, I've also made a huge update of all high-res photos to Isla Fisher's folder.

Cheeky Designs: There's also a major gift for you Godfather fans out there that I have stuck in the gallery. Namely tons of icons from The Godfather. More to come from the first film and, maybe, if i still like you, more to come from II and III as well :)

Cheeky Resources; Image Gallery

The image gallery, post-massive deletion, is being updated.

In addition to adding Hilarie Burton and the chick who plays Hailey on One Tree Hill to the gallery, i'm also moving into a new category system and adding some general descriptions to the descriptions feilds. Please be patient.

Thus far, A & B of hte female celebs have been moved.

Launching The Portfolio

For those of you that check my gallery for updates, you probably haven't seen a lot of late and there is a key reason for that - I haven't been making any.

It occured to me, when I started trying to decide what I would show off to potential clients, that I absolutely do not want them looking at my actual gallery for all of the crap that would innundate them. I did, however, come up with a solution.

http://www.portfolio.bitterepiphany.com/

There really isn't a lot of new stuff there but there are a lot of things most of you haven't had the opportunity to see.

I've also been making a lot of uploads at deviantART.

Updates To Cheeky Resources

A lot of you probably noticed that the Resoruce Image Gallery lost all of its Harry Potter images this past week. The zips are available for download for a limited time - if you need to know where, leave a comment and I will get you URL's. More importantly, however, there have been major upgrades to the Cheeky Resources Image Gallery where OC's are concerned. Significant uploads of high-res photos have been made to

Chad Michael Murray
David Anders
Johnny Depp
Justin Timberlake
Matt Czuchry
Michael Vartan
Orlando Bloom

There are more updates - namely for, ya know, females, but I had some dog washing duties to handle today ;)

Trojan Man

Well, here's some good news for you - McAfee Spam Advisor gives me the thumbs up.

Reasons I Love Nick

Nick is me...except he's a boy and his forte is PHP where mine resides firmly within the cozy confines of Adobe products. (Except Flash. Fuck Flash.)

Tonight I was working on a new skin and I showed it to Nick to see if he had any complaints. He's never expressed any particular interest in fanboying after me, so I assume he's not inclined to lie. The next thing I know, the lovely man is putting together a skin selector script that works around all of my admittedly insane tendancies toward cruel and unsual designs that change colors depending on what buttons you push :)

What's that mean? Well, if he can get it working and refrain from beating me with my own stupid stick, all of my old skins will be selectable, with the new skin and they'll all be updated and shiny and it will be wonderful :) Or at least better.

But yes, I love Nick. I love him so much, in fact, that i've refrained from giving him a nickname for his continued mental health.

44 and a Quarter!

I come, today, at least, to bring good tidings!

No, all right, I haven't made any updates to Cheeky Resources or Cheeky Graphics or deviantART to speak of and, true, I haven't found anything new to feature as of yet, but I do have good news...I just don't have all of the details yet :P

Go read the Wall Street Journal or, I suppose, you could wait until I get back and edit this with more details.

[Wall Street Journal: Rewriting The Rules of Fiction]

You may not be able to see the many many interviews with several of the HPFF staffers, but they're in there.

Typos

I gotta feel the love.

There's a typo on my index page and, i assume, all of the other pages and no one told me :) Course, now i'm not feeling ftp-ish but later i will be and Cheeky Grphics will read Cheeky Graphics.
