I got a new email: bttmcneil@gmail.com

It's easier and simple.  Better looking than Yahoo! at least.  Yahoo! is just fekking cluttered and too many emails get sent there and it's just messy.

Anyone else think that Chile is going to be bombarded with quakes for the rest of this year?  They had a 6.1 magnitude quake yesterday.

I'll post stuff later.  I feel a little tired and lazy to do so.

The Banner must be changed///march 13, 2010

So, I thought it'd be a better thing to do than sit around and wait for my brother to wake up.  I went and made a new banner.  I chose the one up now because the first choice I had was not valid.  It's not the best one around, but it'll have to do for now.


here is the one I made previously:


Intended Banner


the one I made for now:

It's finally here!  After a long week the break has started!  What better way to celebrate than having a good time and showing you all what I'm up to.

March 7, 2010

Well, it's time to update!  I am about to enter MIDTERM WEEK.  This means I will lack more sleep than usual and I probably won't have time to upload during the week.  So, I'll upload what I have thus far...

sorry for it being upside down, but you get the drift...

Black and White + Color Sketches

Finish

Also, a preview of what's to come.  Stuff from my other senior project and other stuff.





Today was really a nice day, but it's too bad I didn't spend it mostly outside.  After this week I will be uploading finished work and constantly updating throughout the week on Senior Project work.
This is from a month or two ago, but it's a reminder that my awkwardness is just normal for me.

March 1, 2010

Hey there.  I am in the process of doing some illustrations for tomorrow and I might be getting somewhere tonight.  I'll post more about them later tonight as well as the illustration of Clinton in Haiti from last week.  So far I might catch up with Floyd's class, but I seriously need to buckle down for a couple nights and just do them.  No distractions I hope.  I am pretty much getting to a half-way point in my midterm for Webdesign.  The layout changed over night from having a dark grey stage color to just knocking it out to white.  A couple minor changes were made for design purposes and one of the categories is complete.  So far I will have another category or two done by next week (depending on my schedule).  I have a quick and easy illustration on the Toyota recall for thursday that I can punch out on Wednesday.  I also will have a portrait started for the following week.

Not much is going on outside class.  I am looking at apartments for May.  Pratt is boring on terms of things to do.  I went to a cool bar two nights ago called the Alligator lounge.  They serve you beer with a free pizza, which is awesome if you love pizza and are cheap and are stapped for cash.  Their cheapest beer is 4 bucks.  Not bad, but I just took people's pizza because I already had a full bottle of rum before the bar.  Pizza is surprizingly good there too.

I've been looking at websites for ideas of my own and I have picked up quite a bit of good things too!  More on that later in life.
