Happy Birthday to me! December 11th, 2010

Well, today, according to the birthday countdown, is Scriptic’s first birthday, and I’ve marked it with a long overdue upgrade to WordPress 3.0.3.

I’ve managed 17 glorious posts in total this year, across 24 categories – which isn’t bad I guess, more than the one a month that i’d anticipated. But there have been some slight let downs, the main one being the complete failure on my part to ever get around to building the custom template that Scriptic deserves. The good news, however, is that i’m currently in the process of remedying that – the HTML has been built and i’ve started the templating stage so hopefully in the next month, perhaps sooner, the site will be relaunched with a new look but the same high quality, hard-hitting stories about bits and pieces of code i’ve written or whatevs.

Something to look forward to then, I’ll drink to that. Cheers!

UPDATE: In case you’re wondering the new theme is now in place – you’re looking at it!

Flash countup / countdown February 2nd, 2010

It’s February, and if i’m not mistaken a little milder. So with that and other positive thoughts in mind here’s a constant reminder of the age of this blog (at the time of writing pretty new), and therefore the age of its creator – me (at the time of writing not) in the form of a Flash (AS2) countup. Slowly ticking off the seconds into oblivion.

The files are here so download them and get counting, the possibilties are endless - as long as they're in some way related to counting.

UPDATE: Due to popular demand here are the files in CS3 format...
