I have just picked up a commission, making four new commissions today. This is what always happens when I make a firm commitment to prioritise my website re-design.
Its some kind of test. Some kind of cosmic puzzle.- what do you charge for those ubercool drawings? what kind of companies do you draw for?********
- I do stuff for everyone, at all kinds of prices. The best answer I can give you...Spookytim
- ... I do a LOT of very commercial stuff though that QBaNos' would probably sneer at, but it keeps me in Jellytots.Spookytim
- what do you charge for those ubercool drawings? what kind of companies do you draw for?

tell you what - I'll do your website and you give me the money from two of the commissions. how's that?

99.99999% of the work required for me to do my website is simply me going through 12x 500gb ex-drives, finding the particular version of each piece of work I want to show, tweaking it a bit, cropping it and saving it, sticking it in the world's most simple html website ever, realising that its become 50,000 jpegs un-optimised, then spending 12 weeks editing it down, optimising the shortlist, then adding things back in, then editing down again, then putting stuff back in, then editing... then changing the categories from subject-based to client-based, then to site-based, and back to subject based, then realising that it says "Untitled Document" everywhere, despite my best efforts to name everything, then giving up half way through and sticking any old shite up as before, then crying quietly in the corner.
So as much as I'd love commission my website out and save myself the bother of trying to wrestle with something that I know nothing about, I would still be faced with the mother of all jobs once my newly commissioned website was ready to be filled up with work and put online.

I'll never get it done. Its as simple as that. I fucking despair. I hate my website. I hate that you can;t even get to see the Liam Frost album sleeve - the only piece of digital work I am actually proud of - because its buried under pieces of bollock.

I have a great idea for your website.
You draw a big headed dinosaur, I have the perfect one already done, you swap the cursor for a boxing glove ok, you then punch the dinosaurs throat thing that looks like a punch bag and it coughs up a drawing and each time you punch the throat bit it spits a new picture out, replacing the one it already spat out, it;s belly would have to be full to begin with then get smaller the more you punched it. :D

"jesus, get someone to content manage it for you or build it based on some already dynamic system, please tell me you aren't doing this the old school hard way?"
Of course I'm doing it the hard way. I have no fucking clue what "Content Managed" means, or what a "Dynamic System" is. I don't know what any of this stuff is. I'm like a octogenarian who wandered into Laserquest by mistake.
Somewhere over the last five years you all got a big fucking injection of tech-sav™ and are now fully fluent in a frankly bewildering array of online creation and production apps and languages. I, however, must have been out of the fucking country that day because mysteriously I HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE. AT ALL.

So I tried ordering tickets for Eddie Vedder in Toronto, their website (massey hall) was taking so long to load that the tickets I had secured expired. Being a big baby, and sending a complaint email to the staff, I have now got tickets. high five.

Is it true that girls, when hungry or tired, act like drunk people? I'm inclined to feel it is true for a lot of women.
- When the girls i know get tired or hungry, they become extremely irratablelocustsloth
- I think girls reach lower blood sugar more easily, and that can certainly make you act like you're drunk.ismith
- I kind of act like this too...but more like I will get even more reserved and tell everyone to shut up.Jaline
- hunger = angry
drunk = horny, so, no.Greedo - I think it's more like the bitchy, annoying drunk.Jaline

Got another notice from Comcast the other day about a "Notice of Copyright Infringement". Apparently the file they caught was UFC 86, and I only downloaded half of it that I missed on the Spike replay. Damn...
