Site Updates

Well, in trying to upload some new images, I managed to mess up my gallery module, but the good news is, I was able to go into the mtSQL database and delete all the junk. I’m usually not so good with that end of things, but when you have a little computer common sense, and are able to put two and two together, it’s really not so hard to fix the problems you’ve created.

As a side note, I am going to be upgrading the wordpress software and installing new plugins, modules, etc, and redoing the site, basically. This will all be back-end until its ready, so things will not appear any more messed up. This could take all weekend, or it could take all week.

Monday, wish me luck. I have an interview. Here’s to hoping I get a proper job.

Being a huge World of Warcraft junkie, I decided that I would do an image of Illidan for a class assignment. The assignment was open ended and had to deal with expression. While Illidan does have an expression, it is not so played up. It is the whole mood of the piece.

Whilst thinking of a subject matter, I knew that I wanted to do an image of Illidan and that I have always been a fan of the penitent magdalen imagery, especially that by Georges de la Tour. This image is easily google-able. In Georges de la Tour’s painting, there is a skull, which is highly appropriate. Albiet the megdalen image is one of penitence and of the flavor of vanitas paintings, it was a great place to start. Furthermore, with the skull I began to think of Hamlet. Presto!

I am very excited to present what I think is my best work to date. Illidan.
