Started my new job today. all I done was look at a website and find any broken links. 6 hours work that is haha. Really I don't know why they never gave me any real jobs to do, I am more than capable of doing most of the jobs that tey do. Rather than converting a computer to a dedicated internal web server to test the site on, why didn't they just let me acces the files using a WYSIWIG (What You See Is What You Get) editor and allowing me to debug any problems that I find they wanted me to write them down along with suggested fixes. Tomorow's job: Market research. Look at other similar websites and find out what they have to offer, what they do better and what we do better that anyone else. And to be perfectly honest all I can do is take everything on face value. I don't actually know much about the business end of the spectrum. All I can do is look at other companys and document what's on offer. But more reliably I will be practically spamming the testimonials on other sites to see wheter they were doctored in anyway and find out what the customers actually thought of the trips they took.
Scottish tours is a pretty big business, and yet most of the customers seem to come from the US and canada. This is something that should be changed. Ok any Scots reading this should contact me and tell me witch of the different islands they have been to. Sky and Arron are 2 examples (and more commonly known) but has anyone ever been to any of the smaller islands? Or has anyone ever been on the Scottish Isles Whiskey Tour? I bet practically none of you have. And most of you probably want to get away from your hustle and bustle lifestyle and take a trip to any one of the idilic landscapes of the scottish isles (and the whiskey tour sounds very appealing, am I right? haha)
And just to add a quick note MICHAEL ANGELO BATIO will be online tonight to talk to just 3 of us live tonight! but it's a monday now and it starts 8PM EST. That's 2AM tuesday morning here! You don't know who i'm talking about (it's not the painter LOL) youtube "BATIO DOUBLE GUITAR SOLO" and you'll see why im so EXCITED!!!

and it's a nice place to work so i'll upload some pics of the scenery. It's a marina, so it's on the waterfront, there are tons of boats (witch i'll sometimes get to work on out on the open seas!) and the big selling point - The board room tends to be the cafe across from the the way from the office.
And there are tons of computers and 2 unused servers that i'll be able to use for whatever I feel necissary. IE Downloading huge quantitys of high quality pornography hahahahahaha!
Later
This is actually 1 of the better pieces of digital art I have done
And here's another sketch I have that I forgot to upload when I finished it. It's supposed to be a dragon, but a few people have commented that it looks a lot like a warewolf or something

Ok. So we'll go with warewold and that's it. No more is it a dragon.
And here's another one I done, It's a robot, and never got past the thumbnail version (start with a thumbnail so that you don't waste too much time working on something you may never use)
Here's a quick animation I made to replace the usuall Myspace Extended Network Bar, hopefully the animation actually shows and it's not just a static image

I never bothered to move all my posts from older blogs here, so sorry, but you probably don't want to hear about what I've done ages ago anyway.
Now what's going on for me is:
- Starting a new job come next week doing stuff like web design and server mantenance. Although it's gona be mostly administration :(.
- Gave up on the guitar site. not going to make any money from it, so that's out of the window :p.
- Teaching myself Photoshop (check out what i done this month with it here) and working on an album cover for a friend.
That's actually about it. I know I need to get a new life, but I like the one I have so stuff it! LOL
