What is posted here? Well I have an online portfolio that has all of my fancy-pant art and design work, but I had no place for my mini-projects. Mini-projects and works in progress will be the focus here.
As the tagline reads, this is space is for sketches, code-bites, and toys.
I think this kind of thing is pretty awesome. Take a picture from your iSight. Take a screencapture. Upload them both to a remote server. WHY DOESN’T EVERYONE WANT TO DO THIS?! Maybe you do, now you can (hopefully).
SVN is confusing, or at least it can be for people who don’t know their way around the Terminal or aren’t exactly sure what SVN is. I was confused by it for a long time and I’m decently technologically inclined. (+1 spelling) This article is intended for those who are forced to use SVN against their will and I will be very explicit and redundant about what is happening and why.

You too can learn to love it!

First I randomly downloaded a font from dafont.com to make sure that I would be using a font that 99% of people didn’t have. If you check out the Flash below you can see that the top text field is using some crazy bitmap-esque font. The text field on the bottom is actually using the same font but since I created it on the stage by hand (rather than dynamically with my code) it is probably displaying Times New Roman. Or some other default serif typeface. The the source code for a commented explanation.
