I survived the third graders! Ended up giving an hour and a half talk.
We all drew some mashed up animals together (I let them pick the two animals to mash up.) Then we came up with a simple comic about Superman and Minecraft Steve after I taught them of the basics of comic creation.
It was cool to have the kids draw along with me and come up with the ideas. Some creative minds!

Night of the Return of the Living Workout
A horror movie in real time 3D.
After 2 1/2 months I'm finally getting my lazy ass back to the gym.
How often do you workout and are you currently on a diet?

Proper channels
When +reddit issued a take down of my Reddit Propaganda Poster from my Etsy shop last week, I didn't get angry.
Instead, I approached Reddit and they ok'd my design to be sold in their official redditgifts marketplace. :)

I've never dealt well with the death of others (not that anyone probably really does,) but in the day of social media it's really brought to the forefront. In the last week I've seen the sudden passing of a beloved poster on G+ and two real life friends I know lost their brothers unexpectedly.
It used to be all you heard about was when family members, close friends and celebrities (tv/radio/newspaper) would pass.
With the advent of social media you're drawn into the lives of others. Their loss is suddenly on the screen for you to read about.
How do you react? Ignore it? Pick and choose? Do you feel like you're offering hollow condolences?
It's not an easy thing to handle. :(

My convention badges since 2004
I've definitely racked up some time at conventions in the last 9 years! I missing a few badges, but this is the majority of them. Only one of these shows I wasn't a vendor at (Star Wars Celebration 5.)
Looking forward to attending more in the future!
What conventions do you frequent or want to attend? My goal is to sell my work at the San Diego Comic Con.
Someday!

Did they just change up notifications so you can't click and be taken to a stream view? Do you now only have the option to check out each one individually?

My latest experiment
Over the last week I've conducted a little experiment. I limited my posts to content that I've either made myself or found on Facebook. (It didn't have to be exclusively on FB, just that it was posted on there by someone that I know)
Turns out that you CAN find quality stuff that people post on Facebook! At least it looks that way by what reactions were on G+ to some of the content I gleaned from friends over there. Three of the posts even made "What's Hot."
Here are some stats:

Curious... Did Apple actually use the words "innovative," "innovate," or "innovation" during their iOS7 presentation?
Did they claim they were the first to do any of the things they added or did they just imply they were new to iOS7?

Video Game Propaganda: Now with Halo
I bought two of these posters quite a long time ago (I think I even posted about them) and then the Halo one I got fairly recently. So, now that I have all three framed and on the wall, I thought I would share.
I love propaganda posters, so I was ecstatic to find one of our very own plussers designing video game versions! +Aaron Wood does some really awesome work and you should definitely check out his store. There are lots of choices (and not just gaming ones).

Let's look at fonts!
Let's look at a comparison of the fonts on Android, iOS7, and Windows Phone
Android uses Roboto. A font brewed up entire at Google in 2011 and is standard on ICS. It met with some rejection from designers when it was introduced. Including some saying it was an amalgamation of four separate fonts.
iOS7 uses Helvetica Neue or a close variation on it. (Not sure on this 100% yet, but the media speculates this is the closest match) Helvetica Neue was created in 1983 and was the answer to making a version of Helvetica with unified heights and widths.
Windows Phone uses Segoe UI. It was designed by Agfa Monotype and licensed by Microsoft. The font had some controversy behind it, with some claiming it was too close to Frutiger.
I made up a comparison chart of the 3 fonts. All comparisons use the same font... more »

Sometimes they come back...
No, not the undead. In this case it's tubes of posters I've sent out around the globe.
Deciphering the reason for the returns is somewhat of a game! Foreign languages and different postal codes add to the mystery.

Please take some time out of your possibly busy or hectic day to check out my buddy's animation.
He's come up with some funny, witty and sometimes very touching little short films and put them up on his YouTube channel, "Mat the Wad."
His latest is called "Coworkers." Matt usually does all the sound effects with his own voice and rarely gives the characters actual voices. His latest short has some voice work from one of his friends though.

X-men has been one of my favorite comics and the one series I've collected the most. Sadly, I haven't collected comics in many years due to budget and storage space.
Marvel has recently revamped the X-men lineup with a all female team. A writer over at the Geek League of America does a quick review of the new team.
