Google Accepts Theme

February 8, 2008, 7:45 am

I recently tested out google's theme submission system for igoogle. The API was fairly clear and once I found the needed resources and list of compatible XML functions it was a breeze. The only snag was the actual submission process. I attempted to submit the theme as per the API's instructions but it would reject my theme for missing attributes such as author name. I researched the issue and found that if you look at the example theme provided by google there is a different form of syntax to use which differs from what the API explains. Once I changed it to the templates syntax it all worked fine.

You can see the theme here.

Oh my deer...

Inspired by the song "Chasing After Deer" by Midlake. I created this work in progress in Photoshop:

I think the rest of the work is going to be detail and fixing up the forest floor.

New photos up.

I uploaded some new photos for this month. Check them out here!

It's been a slow past few months in photography but I promised myself to take a lot more pictures in October so we'll see how that goes.

These were taken all today at the Samoa Beach and a Venus fly trap on my window sill. Enjoy.

Nunya-Clan Released

August 19, 2007, 1:12 am

The site design for www.nunya-clan.com is now up! This site was designed using CSS as the primary platform and Java Script and PHP to run the gallery. The gallery is one the latest iterations of the gallery Saurdo has available on his website. The gallery script displays images based on what images are in specific folders on the server. This allowed Saurdo to make it so the clan members of the Nunya clan are able to upload screen shots they take in-game just by logging in and uploading them to server via PHP. The site is designed to recruit BattleField 2 players to join the Nunya Clan and uses stock BattleField 2 two images through out the site. The header is a simple flash banner not unlike the one used for SomeAwe.
