Finally read After the Fall 10, and Season Eight 16 (was it 16?) and I have to say, could the art on Angel have been any worse? Is is physically possible for that to happen?

There was one panel where Gwen actually looked like a bug eyed alien zombie freak if it was drawn by Picasso.

Seriously. People pay money for these books. Why can't IDW get its act together. I read a LOT of comics (16 from this week's shipment alone), I've been reading them since I approximately 1972 and I'm pretty sure I can accurately say that it was the worst art I have ever seen in a book. And I'm including Liefeld, folks!

There will, more than likely, be more of a review either Saturday or Sunday.

So, there's this new show starting on Fox8 tonight...  
It's 9:00pm and I'm watching the premiere of a new-to-paytv (cable) series.

The synopsis for the pilot episode reads:

"Sam's brother Dean, whom he has not seen since he went to college, shows up in the middle of the night and tells him their father is missing while on a hunting trip."

Sounds okay but I hope it doesn't centre around a family of moose hunters or something.

You may have heard of it. It's called Supernatural and stars Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. Jared is from Gilmore Girls but I have no idea who the hell this Jensen Ackles bloke is!

*grin*

Seriously, you have no idea how excited I am to see Supernatural on TV again. It's ridiculous. I mean, I own all the DVDs and I can watch them anytime I please yet there is something totally different about seeing it 'live' on the telly. *sigh* It's like it's 2006 all over again! \O/

Oooh, and the best part? It's on Fox8 at 8:30pm and then it (the same episode) is repeated on Fox8+2 at 10:30. Score! And sandwiched in between those two airings is an episode of Smallville at 9:30. Looks like my Friday nights are planned out for me for the foreseeable future. *happy sigh*

Custom TSCC Action Figures  
My fandom (and nerdiness) knows no limits!

I'm making a set of TSCC action figures from 3 3/4" GI Joes. I was inspired by [info]cisaac's short Ellison fic "Want" (if you read it, you'll understand why).

This is still an in-progress project, but if anyone's interested in following the process, I've got 3 posts about it so far, describing what I'm doing and showing photos of some of the work involved:

- Part 1
- Part 2
- Part 3

When the project is done, I'll post here again with a link to the finished product.

health update  
They took Charis to the ER tonight -- which wasn't a long trip, considering she's been living in the twins' room since she was discharged from the hospital. She was suffering abdominal pain, and naturally we assumed it was a complication of the pregnancy.

They did a CAT scan, and now suspect she may have ball bladder problems. Possibly unrelated to the pregnancy! It doesn't rain, but it pours ... but at least they think she's well enough to hold off on further treatment until her regular doctor's in on Monday.

In better news, Hunter's feeding tube was taken out yesterday, so he's completely on bottle/breast feeding. That's one of the prerequisites for going home, and he may be discharged sometime today.
Hunter's eyes

Brayden still needs a little help with feeding and may stay a bit longer, but they're gaining weight and otherwise look just fine.
Brayden's eyes

The pics are by my ex-wife, who managed to get them with their eyes open where I've repeatedly failed.

Text tutorial on troubleshooting  
Text tutorial on troubleshooting of some technical moments arising from new (and even experienced) iconmakers that I promised to write.

Time showed that some of my visitors (especially english speaking ones) have troubles with using my resources. These troubles can be divided into 3 groups:

1) my Photoshop doesn't identify .rar files, what is that?
2) what is .pat or .abr file and how can I use it?
3) I have older version of Photoshop (or using other program) and the resources don't match, what can I do?

Now I'll answer all these questions.

1) my Photoshop doesn't identify .rar files, what is that? )

2) what is .pat or .abr file and how can I use it? )

3) I have older version of Photoshop (or using other program) and the resources don't match, what can I do? )
