New layout. Bah.
Category: Miscellany

Yep, that's today's update. So never fret, Candeee, I decided I'd give purple to the blog and leave SC with the deep crimson. At least for now. 😉 Also, post pages are on, so now all subsequent links to previous posts will take you to individual pages for them. YAY! I am, however, a little miffed that I can't seem to find the option to change the template of the archives pages (after all, they all don't need the links list on them), and that the post pages are in their own separate month/year directories is on the one hand helpful for keeping things organized and on the other hand quite annoying, since I prefer to link things relatively and now stuff is all screwedededed up. Find an old post with a graphic and view its post page to see what I mean. I switched the header and sidebar graphics to absolute references so they don't look all screwy, but there's no way I'm going back and doing that for every single graphic I've ever posted on the blog EVER. I dislike post pages very much now, and if I can't find a way to give 'em different, simplified templates, I may just can them altogether and return to the old ways. We'll keep the swanky new purple background, though. (more...)

That. was. um... interesting.
Category: Miscellany

So as I wrote in the previous post that I probably would, yesterday I cut my hair and did the Metro trek thing, stopping off at White Flint, Pentagon City, and Crystal City before finally getting off in Chinatown and making my way to the gathering of networking alums. The first part of the day was pretty routine. Picked up a few more figures at White Flint who will undoubtedly be appearing on Scary-Crayon in the near future; took lots of new photos in Crystal City. But then I found myself footing it across DC in the heat to eventually arrive at a small basement on 18th Street... And wow, that was weird stuff. (more...)

Well, I wrote this up around 6 AM this morning, but the SFTP socket or whatever was being screwy so it's just now getting posted. ENJOY.

Did I mention how greatly I dislike the Blogger redesign? Oh, I mean I'm sure it's not that bad, and I'll get used to it eventually, but right now I'm just missing my most recently updated blog links. Ah well, at least it'll keep the sidebar from sagging too much further... (more...)

Porn in my closet!!!
Category: Miscellany

Yes, I'm still awake. Finally got a path cleared so that I could exit my room, but the place is still a messssss and it'll probably take me ages to go through and get it all cleaned up, if I ever do. Ughghghgh. On the plus side, I found a lot of my old artwork, and I should be able to milk these piles of memories for quite a few SC articles. Yay.

Also, I found some PORN. (more...)

Trapped like a mole in a rockslide.

Well, things have begun to quiet down on Scary-Crayon, with 182 unique visits yesterday and only about 10 of them coming from forums I don't frequent. I'm a little relieved -- it's not that I don't appreciate all of the traffic, but I kinda wish people would pay attention to the other stuff on the site besides the TMNT anime. But I whined about that yesterday. Anyway, hopefully the visitors who decide to stick around will do just that. Not many of the visitors come over to the blog from the main page, but if you did, HI! Welcome. Nice to see you. 🙂 (more...)
