BW Media Spotlight

Considering the rest of the week, I want belter victories.

Yes, I just noticed I left the underdrawing in panel 2. No, I’m not fixing it. It’s not been a good day, not that the week has been worth writing home about.

Changing the site theme will require reformatting every article I’ve done since 2008 and I don’t know that it will allow me to have the intros on the homepage or fix other issues I saw in testing when it comes to how I layout a page. That’s the short version, so for now this is the theme you get. I did update the header and the background a bit.

Trying to get 86Box working so I can finally get that let’s play series started? Still hitting issues. Didn’t have a chance to work with OBS. Barely made any dent in the YouTube backlog. The comic was late, and this article went up an hour late as a result partly because my dad wanted to test HBO Max, which turned out to be a total waste of time, other things came up during the week, and ultimately I got a haircut and my bike tires may actually be in better shape than I thought. That was my week. Rested on my birthday and the next day and then everything else went to blazes. Not counting the heat, which was also an issue. Good thing I didn’t call this a vacation.

Meanwhile we’re back to normal operations here. I posted some other stuff I did for the Clutter Reports, the next Chapter By Chapter review of Tom Clancy’s Op-Center: Mirror Image is coming, the comic reviews and daily videos will be returning, another Superman movie for Saturday Night Showcase if YouTube still has it up, and whatever else comes up this week. Hopefully it will be a better one for all of us.

I also forgot a caption.

Yes, today’s my birthday, which long time readers knows means I take the week off. I was actually hoping to have enough fillers read that I wouldn’t have to but I fell a bit short thanks to the Doctor Who BBC 1963 Note & Reports ending a week earlier than I planned. Still, outside of Tom Clancy’s Op-Center: Mirror Image which still has quite aways to go, anything with a cliffhanger isn’t going to be resolved any time soon since it’s more of a “running story” thing. So I might as well take the time to pull myself together and maybe get some other life and personal projects done without worrying about content.

This actually includes the site itself. When I first started the site I did change themes a bit too often. Not ridiculously so, but enough that Jake and Leon up there could make fun of it. Well, I’ve had this theme, “Selecta” for so long that it’s now outdated and unsupported. Sadly I haven’t found one with all the features I want, but I’m going to have to settle for what I can because it’s becoming a bit unstable on this side of the site, though thankfully not on your side. Still, it’s time for a change, which means also changing the images and a few layout details. Also haven’t updated the sidebar, RSS feed and blogroll links, or the logo in some time. I don’t want to make a huge change to the logo; mostly just clean up the line work. So if you visit during the week you won’t seen new articles but you will see me putting the new look of the site together once I chose a proper theme.

I also want to get caught up as much as I can on the video backlog, various around the house projects, and a few other things I want to do for the site and the creative process. So I’ll be doing that as well. What, you thought I was just going to relax? I have nowhere to go and no money do it with. I’ll be taking it easier and trying to do things to make things easier on my in the future, but it’s not like I’m going to Australia or Venice for a week. I’ll be here, in my house, doing things to hopefully improve my future and maybe even gain some income if I’m lucky. I am not very lucky.

So have a great week, everyone, and pity the now 52 year old man still trying to pull himself together. I’ll see you all next week, possibly with a new look to the site and things in place for the future!
