Writing and Nanowrimo
Well it’s November, and that means usually I’m sitting around for most of the month debating if I’m going to write anything this year, until it’s too late and nothing has been achieved at all. This year I’m a few days late, but I’m actually going to give it a shot. The impetus for this [...]
A few new photo’s up now
Scanning is going well. Finally have the settings about where I want. It’s a bit of a shock to see some of these old photo’s at such high resolution. A few I used to think were pretty good when viewed only at the size of a standard print look pretty average scanned in at 3200dpi [...]
Scanning it in
Well I was productive on Saturday and actually managed to get my scanner working. Took a bit of fiddling under Windows 7, it’s a Minolta Scan Dual 4 which is end of life and unsupported. The quality of the scans is pretty good though and it can do batch scanning 4 at a time. So [...]

Today’s photo
Here it is, the first photo for Photo Friday: I started with an easy one. There is another halfway decent photo I took today that will probably be put up as well, but I’ll leave that for another day.
Photo Friday
Well I have brought my camera in to work today. I’ve decided to try and take a photo every Friday and post it up that night. We’ll see how long I can keep it going! On a related note, I think it’s about time I dig out my film scanner again and see if it’s [...]

Too many games
Mass Effect 2 has been released, which means I really need to get Mass Effect 1 finished. However I still have Batman, Valkyria, Avatar, Borderlands, Dragon Age, Prototype and a myriad of others to finish before I should start playing another game lol. I think that there really needs to be either cloning or some [...]
Dragon Age and other ruminations
Been playing a lot of Dragon Age lately. Really addicitive but have hardly made any progress due to my constant reloading to see every angle of every conversation lol. I’ll probably be playing it when I get home tonight, although I have had a sudden craving for photography. I don’t think I’ve even looked at [...]
Daylight savings
Daylight savings is horrible. Just because some business man wanted longer to play golf in the afternoons does not make a valid reason to screw with world timezone settings. Argh. Also, I am trying to get photo.artinstill.com working again since moving my hosting to Jumba. No idea when this will get completed. I hope to [...]
