                <description><![CDATA[ Well life is going great and our new addition to the family is almost here. We have about a month left until my baby girl is born. My wife is already really excited about the she is so close to being here. Our son is happy that he is going to be a big brother and has started helping out more. He wants to show us that he can help with everything. I have no idea about what to expect with a girl since I haven't raised one yet. Some people tell me girls are easier than boys, but I guess i'll see about that. I still need to get a couple of baby things that I haven't got yet. It sucks that i've been slacking on that part, but the cash flow after the holidays isn't that great either. I'm going to post a new site design I did for a client not too far back, and would like your comments on the design of it.<br />
<br />
In work related items, working for this <a href="http://www.fragtools.com"><strong>new company</strong></a> has really helped me expand my ideas about web/graphic design. More and more they are asking me for ideas on their clients sites, and so far most of them have been used. Before I worked for myself at home finding my own clients and felt like my talents were needed to a point. Now I feel like part of a team, with my goals being achieved in a much faster time frame. The past month i've been working on one of their clients sites that happens to be a computer video card manufacturer. I was in charge of taking the layout they had and converting it over to a tableless design. Before it was just tables and flash in plain html. I have used the same design with minor changes to the look and feel, then added that into XHTML, CSS, AJAX and PHP. Everything is turning out great and has been more than I expected it to be. Next month I was told i'm going to be working on the company site since its going to be part of something larger (more details later). It makes the current site i'm working on look like a small 2-page website. Its just going to be huge.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well as everyone can see I have been gone a long time again. I know it sucks, but what can I do when family and work calls. Anyways for those of you still here watching my stuff, here are some updates in my life. First off my wife and I are adding to our family. We found out that she was pregnant, and now we found out that the baby is a little girl. Its just what we wanted, our little girl after all this time. Its great our family is expanding, i'm a very proud husband and father. My son just turned 6 this month and time is flying by. It seems like not too long ago he was born and now he's in school.<br />
<br />
As for work its been going great. I have been expanding my company as much as I can getting new clients more and more. Work has been picking up and its nice to have a more steady income coming in for my growing family. A little while back (last month) I was offered a position at a consulting company for a web designer doing the same thing i'm doing now. I took the job and i'm still able to work from home doing the work I love to do. They threw me into a big job right away, no questions asked. So I started doing some design work for one of our clients. They already had a design and the site coded up, but the code was in tables and really sucked. I was in charge of converting the existing code into a tableless/css design. I think it went quite well, but still has a lot of work thats needed to it. The bulk of the code was done so that got a lot of my chest since i'm responsible for it. I'll update you guys later as to who the client is if anyone cares to know. So in the future i'll be posting work i'm doing at my new job plus the work I now do on the side under my own company. One job I did finish lately was for a mouse pad company that makes professional gaming mouse pads for the masses. I'll be adding that design to my portfolio very shortly. Hope everyone has a great Christmas this year.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I haven't been on DA much in the past months. Thats only because a lot has been going on in my life. My son just started kindergarten last week. That has been a lot of fun. He likes it for the most part, but doesn't understand why he has to go to school. He will get used to it over time, so its not so bad. Also my wife and I found out that she is pregnant and we will be expecting our second child around February. She is wanting to have a girl, and for the first time I don't have a preference in gender of the baby. I already have my boy, and thats what I wanted from the start. Now hopefully she can have what she wants.<br />
<br />
Also i'm getting more and more work to do so that keeps me plenty busy. My hardware review site Altgamer is doing well and expanding. I have been working on the new design for it the past couple of months and now i'm about 95% done with the coding. It should be going live in the next couple of weeks, just got some more things to work out on the code. When i'm done the new design it won't just be a main site redo, but also redone company pages with tons more links and info about us, a daily deals page which includes some of the hottest deals on electronics on the web (for that day only, most of the time), and a brand new forum theme that matches the website. As for right now the new forum theme only works in Mozilla/Firefox. IE7 doesn't support it (man does it look like crap in IE7), and I have no idea about IE6 since I have moved over to Vista and no longer own it. Once everything is done with the new design it will give me more space for content, look more professional on my part, and provide ad space for manufacturers wanting to buy ads. I really hate putting ads on the site, but hell I have to make money somehow since i'm not getting paid to run the site as it is. I put a lot of work into it for very little rewards each month. You can see the old site design by visiting <b><a href="http://www.altgamer.org">Altgamer</a></b> or looking at the <b><a href="http://phaticon.deviantart.com/art/Altgamer-32715180">design on here</a></b>. So as you can see I have my hands full and thats why I have not been on DA for a long time now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <title>Taking Requests: Pixel Phones Set 2</title>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well i'm starting set 2 of my pixel cell phones. It will take me a while to complete considering how many phones will be in the set, and the fact that pixel art takes forever. I have had a huge interest from all of you on DA from my <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/21727193/">last set</a>. So now i'm taking requests for phones that you would like to see in the set. Last time I made one phone for someone that was a request, that wasn't included in the final set. Phone manufacturers included in set 2 with be Sony Ericsson, Nokia, Motorola, some LG, Samsung, and maybe some others. I know there are a lot of phone manufacturers out there besides what I have just listed. Those are some of the more popular ones out there, plus there are still a lot more overseas that most people here in the states have never even heard of. I'm just hoping for a lot of people to give me ideas of what they would like to see in the set. I make these for all of you people out there that have requested some phones, and those that have download the crap out of the last set. <br />
<br />
I hope to make this set 3 times larger than the previous set. The reason the <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/21727193/">first set</a> was so small is because I was testing the waters to see how people would take them, and it turned out to be very good. Be patient though, they will come out, but will take some time as I have a lot on my plate. So my free time is split between work, my hardware review site, and family. Please just send me a note or leave some comments about the new set if you have a request for a certain phone model. Just make sure that there is at least one picture of the phone available on the net. I don't care if its a new phone or one not out yet. I need at least one image for reference to make the pixel phone. If anyone would like to donate, please just send me a note about it. Not saying any will, but it does help out with making these for everyone to enjoy. I wouldn't mind a DA subscription either. Just a thought, but take it as you will.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well its been a while since I have posted anything on here. I know I have a lot of people watching me now, and a lot asking for certain files for my deviations that DA somehow lost. I have been trying to find those files people, but I have rather large hard drives to look through. Not only that, but my wonderful system decided to die. So I built a new one in no time, and i'm using a nice dual core cpu now. So now I have a work/gaming system, something of which I didn't have before. Everything was going good and then last week my hard drive died (just my luck). I got two Seagate 320gb SATAII drives on order to put into raid when I get them. Now i'll be able to ditch the old IDE drives, and use drives that are a lot faster and quieter. Windows wouldn't show the drive in the OS, but I knew it was hooked up. I thought I lost all my web/graphic design work from 4+ years ago to now. Everything I have ever done was on that drive, even the very first one. I have no idea why I keep everything like that, but I just do. What I needed was a NAS system to sit on my network that I could put all of my work on without having to worry about drive failure. I know that the NAS drives will fail sometime, but not as soon as drives used in a system like mine thats almost in use, and turned on 24/7. So D-Link sent me a new NAS system to review and put on my Hardware Review site. Now how lucky is that? So now I have everything offloaded to the NAS system while i'm waiting for my new drives to get here from Seagate. Right now i'm using a very old IDE drive around 10GB. It sucks, but its only for a week or so. The only thing I hate is having to reinstall every damn program I had on here. I had way too many programs since I do a little of everything.<br />
<br />
Well my site Altgamer.org is doing very well now. We started to make some money off of the ads on the site finally. Its not much right now, but it is something, better than nothing, and it does pay for the server bills as of right now. Altgamer is coming up on its 1st birthday in the next couple of months. I know a lot of people have told me that the site design looks great already and I shouldn't mess with it, but i'm going to. So for the 1st birthday i'm going to rollout a very new design, but it will still look somewhat like the current design on the site. I'm just going to change things up a bit, make it wider, make somethings more simple, and add a lot more features for the site and the forum. We are trying to get a lot of manufacturers join in for the birthday bash and donate some gear that we can give away to our readers. Everyone likes free computer gear, don't they? Well we do already have some on board at this moment, but i'm not saying who just yet. We did get a new forum system for the site and now it looks like the stock skin that comes with it. It sucks and I want to change it, but I don't really want to mess with vBulletin at this time. If someone out there would like to help me develop a skin for the Altgamer Forum, please send me a message and we can work something out. I'm asking this cause I have never messed with this forum system before, and I have a lot on my plate right now to do.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well sorry for the lack of updates everyone. I have been super busy with a ton of projects. I do promise to put some new work up for everyone to see very soon. I will be adding some new wallpapers, and designs to look at. Recently I have been scanning in all my old hand drawn artwork to put up on here, but that has been very time consuming per each piece. Some of the work is 10+ years old and because of this the paper is worn. This sucks for me because I now have to fix each piece in Photoshop before they are ready to show. A lot of touching up, and its no fun. I truly don't like some of the work I have done in the past, but I know that everyone has to start somewhere. Most of it is lame, and generic, but its mostly black and white art. I have sold some pieces over the years to tattoo shops, bands, and people just wanting them. Well just keep a look out for them.<br />
<br />
My other site Altgamer.org is kicking me in the ass right now. I end up spending a ton of time after the design work I do writing reviews for the hardware I recieve from manufacturers. Don't get me wrong the job is great, and being able to get free computer hardware is great as well, just having so many reviews to do is whats killing me. Writing isn't something I think i'm very good at anyways, its just something I picked up while running another site. As you can tell i'm more so a artist by heart and writing isn't a passion of mine just yet. I guess it has to grow on me first.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well good things are happening. I just officially partnered with the design studio <a href="http://www.manufracture.com">Manufracture</a>. I have been working with that design studio for 3-4 years now, and have become great friends with the owner. Over that time I have designed countless websites for him and his clients, a lot of the designs that you can see in my gallery. I noticed that a partnership was working its way closer together every week. I just waited it out until it happened. Now that Manufracture is part mine I have a great deal of work to do to make this all work out. We're doing a new marketing campaign to get things going for us. We make a great team cause what I don't know he does, and what he don't know I do. Things are looking up and it will only be a little time before everything gets off the ground. If anyone needs any work done please let me know, or visit the site for more information on every service we provide.<br />
<br />
Altgamer.org is taking off pretty well now. Traffic is coming in at a steady pace so far. I wish the traffic was more, but it's just a start so far. The hardware reviews are going very well also. We have a number of big name manufactures sending us product samples to review right now. Things are starting to pick up there as well. I would like to see more hardware reviews coming in, but I understand that this is just a start and things will get better with time. I do enjoy every aspect of this site and all my duties that follow it. Whats great is a lot of the smaller manufactures with only a couple of products are giving us reviews left and right. This is a great deal cause for the companies people get to see their products, get some traffic and sales, and we get some traffic as well. Smaller manufactures have a hardtime getting the word out about their products, so for us to do a review for them it helps their chances of getting the word out. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well my new site altgamer.org is live now. Those of you that are interested in hardware reviews, please go check it out for yourself. It started out as a side project, that became a fulltime thing for me. I don't what else to say since I feel like crap today. Oh I will be adding a user forum shortly, and some other minor features through out the whole site. We just wanted to get the site up and going, and get the samll stuff afterwards. Leave a comment if you have something to say about it. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I made it to 10,000 pageviews, which is great. I know that a lot of other designers have made it past this mark already, but i'm not as popular I guess. I just want to thank everyone who watches me and my work, cause without you guys and girls, I wouldn't have as many views at all. There are a lot of people who visited my page that don't watch me, so thanks to those people as well. I should be uploading more of my work soon. I have a interface to upload that I made for a software company. There are just too many interface screens to show everything, and too many interface resolutions as well. I'll find a good way to present this though.<br />
<br />
Also my new hardware review site should be done soon, and going live. I don't know when though, cause I have a lot of personal stuff going on in my life right now. I'm trying to get everything done, manage all my sites, and my company  also, on top of my family stuff. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well while i'm taking a little break from everything that i'm doing, I thought I would go through all my old work that i've never released to the public. I've already started to upload some stuff that has never gone public before, just some emote sets, nothing special really. I have a ton of stuff that I have made over the years that I have never released, because I thought it wasn't good enough at the time. I may still think they aren't good enough, but I have more confidence in myself no than I did before.<br />
<br />
I should also be releasing a lot of the work I have been doing for my new hardware review, tech news, and more site. I have the hardware award images to upload (the awards to give hardware for the review, if it applies). Also I have a ton of shirt designs that i've been doing as well. I might upload the shirts a little later on, but will get them up too. The recent client work I have been doing should be going up soon too. I have a lot to show from that.<br />
<br />
Also does anyone know where I can get a nice template for a hoodie, in vector format or not? I really need one for the designs i'm doing for my new site. I found a nice vector shirt template here on DA, now I just need a hoodie template. If anyone knows where I can get a good one let me know. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Just an update on the looking for writers thing. I have so far found one writer to add to my new site, and i'm still looking for more people. At least one more writer would be nice to add to the site very soon. So if you or someone else is interested in writing for a up and coming tech site then please let me know.<br />
<br />
Well i'm still looking for some good tech writers for my new site when it's live. I need writers with good writing skills, knowledge of computers (parts, OS's, making guides, tips, hacks, and so on), and some past experience with a site of this kind preferred. If you meet any of these requirements then please send me a note with links to samples of previous work. The writing positions are completely on a volunteer basis only for right now. The job can go into a paying job once the site gets big enough and creates enough revenue to pay everyone. This might not be for sometime, depending on how the site goes. Any questions just leave a comment, note, or email me with the subject line as: <b>Writing Position</b>. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I will have a new site coming in a couple of months. I just wanted to let everyone that reads this know about it. I don't have a name for it yet, but i'm working on that part. The site will be like <b><a href="http://www.tipmonkies.com">Tipmonkies</a></b>, but more based around hardware reviews, hopefully more pc articles, and guides, and maybe some pc mods. I've decided to go off on my own, and do my own thing for other reasons I wish to not discuss right now. I will still have something to do with Tipmonkies, but not as much since I will be doing my own thing. Today I got a silent partner for the site that will be half owner and supply the financial means, but wishes to remain silent and unknown to the public. In the next few months I will be getting the site ready, getting hosting, domain name (once I think of one), coding the site, and designing the site.<br />
<br />
After that is all done and we are close to going public with the site I will be needing some people to help write guides, articles, and so on. The site will be based towards hardware reviews for computers, mp3 players, cameras, and cell phones. Hopefully I can add all that content to the site and be able to maintain it. I already have a large lists of pc manufactures that send me product samples to review, so this part will already be well established. For right now i'm going to be looking for some writers. I need writers with good writing skills, knowledge of computers (parts, OS's, making guides, tips, hacks, and so on), and some past experience with a site of this kind preferred. If you meet any of these requirements then please send me a note with links to samples of previous work. The writing positions are completely on a volunteer basis only for right now. The job can go into a paying job once the site gets big enough and creates enough revenue to pay everyone. This might not be for sometime, depending on how the site goes. Any questions just leave a comment, note, or email me with the subject line as: <b>Writing Position</b>. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well it's been a while since I have wrote anything here, not that much of anyone really reads this anyways. Most of my personal work has been put on hold until I can finish this workload I got dropped on me. I got a nice new bigger client a week ago and since then it has been great. They have seen my work, and they loved it. Since then they have me designing just about everything, 10 projects or so.<br />
<br />
I'm just so grateful that this happened to me at the right moment. It's one of those big breaks you get when you least expect anything to happen. Once I start completing more project from them, I will put up some of the work I did to show everyone. The company is a small software company that makes some great programs. I was trying to get Tardmonkey up when this job came into my lap. Yes I would like to get Tardmonkey up soon so everyone can come to my site, and get  to see my work and download some of it also. I'm not so great with php right now is where my problem is, and i'm stuck with some stuff that's probably really simple for a better coder. Like they always say, designers don't code, and coders don't design, but for me i'm in the middle as I do both.<br />
<br />
In other news my other site Tipmonkies is doing great for me at least. I write some pc tips from time to time, but I do a lot more behind the scenes work than most people know. For one i'm the only designer, so everything you see on the site I designed. I also make sure everything is running smoothly with the site, which half of the time it's not since the staff doesn't do what they are supposed to do. The other thing is I do all the PR work for Tipmonkies. I get our name out there by any means that I can. Also I take care of all the hardware reviews for the site. No one else wanted this job, so that's why I took it. It's nice as I get to talk with just about everyone from almost every pc related company you can think of, a lot of which send me product samples for me to review on the site. It helps us out and it helps out the companies products that I review, plus I get to keep everything they send me so that's a plus. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well as the title says, I am for hire now. If you're looking to have something made please look through my gallery to see what I am capable of making, and send me a note if interested. I hate to post this, but I need the work right now to pay some bills, and to buy a new monitor. Right now I'll take any work I can get, so if you have something let me know. If you wanted to donate some cash so I can buy a new monitor, then by all means do so. In return I'll make something for you. I'm looking to buy a Samsung 997DF 19" monitor. I found someone with one for cheap, but need some work now.<br />
<br />
<br />
Tardmonkey is progressing nicely. I have slacked off for a bit to do some other work, but I will get back on to finishing the site up. It's taking me longer than expected since I'm coding my own admin section by hand from the ground up. I also have to code a gallery to hold all my work for you guys to download. Hopefully soon I'll be done.<br />
<br />
<br />
I have been doing some new work for Hell Yeah Bitch.com lately. I made a new site background for them, made a small site mock-up, and re-done the logo. I waiting to see which stuff they decide to use. I have also posted an article on their site. It's nothing special, but it's a pc tip none the less. In the future I become a part of HYB as a main writer, which will be good. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well i'be been working on my site Tardmonkey over the weekend. Most of the site is done, but some minor things. First the menu is done, but the transparent drop down menus aren't finished yet. I still have the galleries to finish and then the site will be up for you all to enjoy.<br />
<br />
In other news I might be making the default template for BoastMachine. BM is a small open source blogware with one developer. It's a good little blog script. There is a newer version coming out which is 4.0, and that is the template I will be designing for BM. You can view BM at it's home <a href="http://www.boastology.com">[link]</a><br />
<br />
After Tardmonkey is up I thought about bringing back the cell phone art community, but on my own server. I could just make the site simeple and use blogware as a backend where every user can signup and make thier own posts about their themes. That would keep it simple for everyone, and all I would have to make is the blog site design. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well after some thought and a little freetime I came up with the new tardmonkey design. I had one previous design that got finished, but never became public. that version was based on pixel art and in different shades of green. The new version more so suits me and my designing has changed. Once  I get done with some tweaking of the design I will upload a preview of what I have been tinkering with. This site will be the home for my personal design work, such as the design work I upload here. I will be adding some other stuff to the site, maybe. This will be Miranda themes, icons, and maybe some cell phone themes. The design will be minimal as always.<br />
<br />
If you look at my recent wallpaper Happy Little Trees, the site will have some of that on it. Designing that wallpaper is what gave me the idea to make a new site version in the first place. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I got contacted last week or so from a viewer saying that they really like my recent vector work I have done. He went on to ask me if I would create a background for his site. I did agree to do so, and made him something minimal and vector like my recent work. Seems he really did like it and I got the nickname "The Vector Art Ninja" from him.<br />
<br />
His name is Mike and he runs <a href="http://www.hellyeahbitch.com/">[link]</a> it's a nice site with different posts everyday. I was happy to have worked with Mike, and later on he asked if I would make some Photoshop or Gimp tutorials for his site. I would be glad to make some up for him and his site. This has never happened to me before, and it's always cool when I get to make something for someone else.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I haven't been on much lately as I have been way too busy to post a whole lot. My cell phone group went to crap also cause of this. Really there wasn't much I could do since I have been busy with many different sites. I worked on a pc tip site design trying to get that up while posting articles about pc stuff. Then after that I went on to finish up some work and crank out my company site. Just the other day I finished a site for my friends hosting company (manufracture.com), which turned out great.<br />
<br />
First off my design company Emotistudios got off the ground and the site is live. Business is picking up quick and I didn't expect it to this fast. I was already doing a ton of work before the site went up, but now we have more clients.<br />
<a href="http://www.emotistudios.com">[link]</a><br />
<br />
Second I have been working with some friends making a site about pc tips, reviews, tech news, and more try to work out. It going good right now and we are getting more popular. We do a weekly podcast that we post on there also. Now you can access our podcast via iTunes. So far we have been contacted by tech book publishers to review books. We also have some pc hardware reviews coming up.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have been working a lot lately. To start off I almost have my company site up, so that is going great. I have been making at least 2 sites a day which is keeping me very busy and away from designing other things.<br />
<br />
I will be down for at least a day or so cause my hard drive went bad so I got another and i'm going to re-install everything. It sucks but it's better than what I am using now since only half my stuff works and I get errors from doing nothing. Thank you MS!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have been doing a ton of stuff.  I have been working on so many themes  it's not funny. The mobile multimedia  company that is going to sell me themes  wants me to make them a website, so  that's an added bonus. I just finished  up one of the sites that i posted a  screenshot of, there was a ton of work  involved going into that site. I still  have at least 3 sites that I have do  make since the designs have been  approved. I haven't really worked on  much of anything recently except for  client sites.<br />
<br />
In other news I got some new 2 gauge  titanium eyelets in the mail today and  I can't wait to stretch my earlobes  once again. Also if anyone want's a  20gb 4th gen iPod please let me know.  Getting a shipment of them in soon and  will be selling for $180 usd new and  sealed. Way cheaper than Apple sells  them for at $300 for that same model.  If interested please message me.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have just finished a set of  wallpapers for a body jewelry site  called <strong><a href="http://www.bodyartforms.com">Body Art Forms</a></strong>. They really  liked them a lot. I have permission to  upload the wallpapers here for everyone  else to download, since I used their  logo through out the designs. I got  some stuff for them plus they are  letting me have free body jewelry,  which is a plus.<br />
<br />
I still have 50 gmail accounts to give  away if someone would like to trade all  of them for a DA subscription for me or  my cell phone art group.<br />

<br />
I have 4 new wallpapers to release in  the coming days. Three are from the  Urban Settings series I made and the  other is just one wallpaper by itself.  All are equally great alone, but the  series is great as a whole.<br />

They have a bunch of  new clients which is more work for me,  but well worth it. I haven't made many  things in the past weeks cause of all  this work I have now but I am working  on some new themes, some wallpapers,  and a emoticon set.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have been very busy these past  few weeks with my family and some  projects that I have been doing that  needed my attention. I'm in the process  of making new theme's for the Sony  Ericsson phones which will work on many  more than what I just make them for. <br />
<br />
My PC has been down for sometime now  since my memory modules burnt up and I  had to have them replaced. I added a  new unlocked AMD XP-Mobile 2500+ cpu to  the system for now until I go and build  a AMD 64 setup.<br />
<br />
I have also started a Art Group for  Cell Phone Theming if anyone is  interested I would like to start  releasing work under the Art Group  name. Just contact me and we can get  things started.<br />
<br />
Okay the Art Group is up and running, I  now have 3 whole members and would like  to get more people to join so we can  modify phones as a community. Click on  the icon below to go to the community  page. All the info is posted there.<br />
<br />

<br />
I started to make some very small pixel  cell phones for people to use in cell  phone forums, reviews, or whatever they  may want to use them for. These will be  uploaded soon. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Things are looking better now. I have  started to make themes for Sony  Ericsson phones which have great  product design and a following. When I  first started to make them I didn't  think the outcome would be as great as  it has been. The themes are taking off  nicely since it seems that a lot of  people enjoy them. One of my sites  Stylix is coming up on it's 1 year  birthday on the 27th. The new version  of the re-design should be done soon,  hopefully it will be done before the  27th but there is still a lot to do. We  were just going to come up with a new  layout then decided to change the  coding format also along with it and  redo the database.<br />
<br />
Also I was thinking about maybe  starting a Art Group for Cellphone  Theming here on DA. If anyone is  interested in this please message me. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well i'm still here, if anyone thought  I wasn't around DA anymore. I have just  been busy with a lot of various  projects for clients. That is the  reason I haven't uploaded anything for  sometime now. But I will be uploading  some stuff little by little. Thanks for  all the people that have come here to  look at my work, and thank you for the  comments. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well i'm back after all this time. I  had to get away from all of this for a  little while. Then I started a Linux  site with a couple of friends of mine  so I have been busy with that. Besides  having a family that my attention goes  towards all moments of the day. I have  been building a lot of websites so I  have been consumed with lots of graphic  work and coding. I have made a lot of  new stuff some of which I will upload  for everyone to see. Not much else to  say. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I had to make myself a new DA icon  cause i got sick of looking at my old  one. I don't know if the one I made is  good enough either. I kind of don't  like it but it works for now. Anyways I  have updated my <b><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/2643164/">Gameboy Advance  emoticons </a></b> and turned them into <b><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/3887455/">Gameboy  Advance Icons</a></b> for you GBA emulator  pleasure. They are the same design as  the emoticons but in .ico format. I  hope these will be downloaded like the  emoticons set. Considering the emoticon  set has 247+ downloads and they got  ripped for a game store in the UK. I am  also doing alot of design work right  now. I am going over 2 sites with  clients, and multiple pieces of small  graphic work. I have been working out a  deal with someone to get some space to  host my friends, and my side project.  This certain someone happens to own a  server that has more than enough space  I could use. So i'm hoping it all work  out for the good.<br />

Timm is the man. He is a great graphic  designer and photographer. He may not  know this but I look to his design work  cause it is the appeal that get's my  eye. He is the only person that is like  a best friend to me. He is the one of  the funniest people to talk to. Timm  man thanks for being a friend.<br />

Hollie is a wonderful person. To those  that don't really know her like I do  they will never know. She supports all  my ideas, design work, and my input  among other things. Without her I would  be lost in this world. She is what she  is and that's why I love her. I love  you baby.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Well it's been a long time since I have  uploaded anything of any use to anyone.  I wanted to get into the season for the  winter months to come so I made some  Snowflake wallpapers. I started out  with just one then one turn into 6 sets  with 4 wallpapers in each set. I think  I did a good job at making them but I  want feedback from everyone that looks  at them. I really would like to know  what you guys think. You can find all  of them here.<br />

Besides that I am still working for a  webdesign company making plenty of  sites for everyone. I also have a side  project going on that if it works out I  will offer free memberships for  everyone that wants to join. But I will  have to keep everyone updated on that.  That's why i'm not saying what it is  cause I don't know if it will work out  or not. Well that's about it for now. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I know people come to look at my  page and I never have anything new for  them to look at which really sucks. I  have just been so busy it's not even  funny. I have to balance my life, 2  jobs, and a family within every 24 hour  span. sometimes I am up about 20 hours  a day just so I can work and spend time  with the family. Right now I am  currently working on a community winamp  skin, 2 websites, and some random 3D  studio work. I will try to add  something new as soon as I can people,  when i get some freetime to make  graphics. I just did a whole community  site re-design which was my first to  do. It's nothing all that great but it  is a very big step up from what it  looks like now. Well i'll post more  later. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have been getting some emails  for awhile now about doing some  freelance design work for some  companies. I do this kind of work  already. So one i started talking to  the owner about the work and it all  sounds good. So I decided that I would  work for them on a part time basis. Now  i got a full time, and a part time  design job with maybe one more on the  way. I'm glad that people see some  skills in me well enough to have me  work for them. Well it just seems that  everything is going well. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I have uploaded all my AVS presets  for you all to enjoy. In the near  future I might make some more but as of  right now I am working on alot of other  graphics and layouts. Plus I have been  having fun getting into Icon making. I  just started out making them and  released one set so far. I know they  aren't that good but hey I have to  start somewhere. Also I have been  trying to work out a deal for hosting  with this company to let me have 5gb's  of space along with some other features  so that might go through. If it does i  will have my company site, personal  site, and graphic site up in no time. I  will also host my friend <a href="http://timmotheus.deviantart.com">timmotheus</a>.  Cause his photo's are awesome you  should check him out. Well that's about  it for now. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well I am working on new layouts just  for practice. I have been making alot  of buttons and wallpapers for other  sites. I was thinking about starting to  make some new Winamp skins, maybe one  to match my personal site but I don't  know if it will work or not. I guess I  will try. I haven't been uploading  anything cause I am working on building  a new computer for myself, so i'm kind  of stuck on doing that for right now. I  am going to finish uploading my Winamp  AVS presets that I made though. So look  for those. "Update" well i uploaded all  my Winamp AVS presets for you all to  enjoy. I hope they are trippy enough  for you all look at. I am going to make  some windows icons I think, not for any  programs but just some random icons for  whatever. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well my page views are getting up  there. I never thought that I would get  very many views at all. But with time  it seems that my designs are getting  better. I went and looked at the first  thing I ever submitted to DA the other  day, and all I did was laugh. It was  lame but it also was a starting point  for me. I'm glad I learned from my  early work. I used to make skins all  the time but now all I make are  wallpapers, logo's, emoticons, and  such. Maybe I should start making some  skins again. I don't know we will see. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well as some of you may have seen I  have finished my personal site. I have  been uploading all 5 colors of the  site. I f your wondering what I did  then wonder no more. All i did is  figure out the color schemes for 5  different css files (blue, red, green,  orange, and grey). I also used the css  to make rollover images as seen in the  screenshots of the site. I used css  classes to do this effect, so when it  changes the site to blue let's say it  calls the class for the banner image,  all the tables and the text. I used  javascript to call the css file to load  them. Maybe I should have used php but  I didn't want to write the code for it  *lazy. If you want some help with  making css files or just some reference  with html and other coding people get  ahold of me. But check out my site  screenshots, and the site will be up as  soon as i get my server running so bear  with me. ]]></description>

Also I have hit over 1,800 page  views which is great also. I am finished with my personal site but I  don't have it up on the net yet. And I am in a joint design on making a  new site for someone else. I just did some of the graphic's for it, and  some javascript. For all of those that have suppoted me so far, thanks.<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well let's see I have been working on my personal site, and it's coming  together nicely. It's kind of simple on the design part, but I use 3D  studio on some of the images. So it look's simple but it's not I guess,  I don't know you will people will have to decide when I upoad a  screenshot. But before then I have to work on it some more which i'm  doing in between writing this. I decided to put off making my other  site Tardmonkey due to the lack creative inspiration at the moment, but  after I am done making my personal site I will be back on to making  Tardmonkey. I guess that's about it for right now.<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am just now uploading old skins sets and series that I have done but  never did anything with. I thought that I had uploaded them but when I  looked in my gallery I noticed that they weren't there so now I am  uploading everything. The skins sets may be a little simple but that's  what i like and what alot other's like. But if you don't like it oh  well.<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hey people i know i have not been doing anything on here, but i have  been working on a new site layout. Plus my old site is gone so to  speak. Only for the fact that a <a href="http://intrix.deviantart.com">"so called friend"</a> thought i locked her  out of her server which i did not nor would i do, so in turn she  changed the password, and locked me and hollie out of the server. She  deleted hollie's site but not mine for some wierd reason even though  she say's that i "hacked" her server. And she was supposed to be a real  life friend also? Ha i think not. So please wait as i get my domain,  and my space ready for the new site. If you get bored in the meantime  you can go tell this <a href="http://intrix.deviantart.com">person</a> how retarded she is for doing this to  hollie, and i. And i want to say thanks to <a href="http://burnsflipper.deviantart.com">burnsflipper</a> for the site  icon, great job. It's in the layout. <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_w00t.gif" align="middle" alt="w00t!" title="w00t!" border="0" /> <br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well my site has been up a day now, and I am not to pleased with how it  is going so far. It seems as though I am not that great in digital art  for people to come, and check it out. The whole site is not finished  100% but only a couple of things hold me back that I am working on. I  just made some Block Icons that I uploaded I hope everyone enjoys them  as much as I do. They took me awhile to make, only cause I made so many  colors of them. I started out with one color then I made more, and  more. so please check out my site <a href="http://mike.digitalassault.org">[link]</a> ,and download my icons. leave  comments for me too!<br>
