My first ever digital camera died a few months back when my sister drowned it with water (actually, the cap on her water bottle came off and went into everything that was in her bag).

I’m saddened to see my wonderful camera go. It was a sturdy little bitch that didn’t take no for an answer. It even doubled as a weapon because of its weight and size.

The camera set me back about $850, which took me a few months to save up for. Fuck it was expensive. This was when 4 megapixels was the shiznet. If you had 4 megapixels it meant you had 4 cocks or something. And we all would want that don’t we.

I’ve had some great memories with this camera, where most of the photos were taken at the regular high school group outings.~sigh.

Below is probably one of the first photos I took. I used the word “probably” because I probably deleted other photos before this one.

Anyhow, my sister replaced it with one of these. It’s so damn sexy.

Beware: rant ahead.

Trying to get my creative juices flowing again.

So I decided to take on digital painting with Corel Painting. Man, it didn’t go so well at all. I always said to myself that digital painting would be something I will not get into since I’m no Fine Artist, and I don’t have the patience to practice like one. But the more paintings I saw lurking on the net, and from the lairs of various conceptual studios, the bigger the itch got.

So I gave in.

Anyhow, decided to do something quick to make myself happy since I failed miserably with the digital painting stuff. Yeah he’s a cooked prawn - I like it. I might go back to it and give it some more detail, one day.

Hmm, I think I’ll give that painting stuff another shot tomorrow.

I’m finally on broadband.

It’s amazing. ; )

Great to see my Ninjaman buddies producing some great stuff under their own Subversive Games banner. Coinciding with the elections coming up in a few weeks, Scumbag ‘07 is a modified version of an earlier game they made which had our politicians trading insults school yard style.

Lol, a beautiful-looking game dudes. The characters are just too funny.

Ps. I would’ve like it more if the insults were updated as well, maybe some reflecting Howard’s caterpillar eyebrows or K.Rudd’s ear-wax eating habibts.

** update **

I forgot to mention that the game even has it’s own news article. Well done boys!
