I’m graphically insane.

February 18, 2008

So I found a tutorial on how to make shiny graphics in Fireworks MX. The result….

Help i’m trapped in a logo factory

Boredom sucks.


6 months later…

December 31, 2007

and I finally remember I have a blog. :P

Where to start…..

Well I’ve moved to Greece successfully, got set up in my new house, and posted a whole pile of new videos on Youtube, I’ve got some Pink Floyd, James Taylor and even an acoustic blues jam in B :P For those, check my channel: http://www.youtube.com/ltbrenton

Also seem to have landed myself a part time job working as a software developer for a local computer store, so that’s all running quite well…Got a slight snag with only having dialup capability at my house, but we get 2Mbit broadband at work so it’s just more incentive to get in early XD

Christmas was reasonably uneventful on the actual day due to having just moved across a lot of the planet, although I later learned I’d been given a 27′ racing yacht by a friend back in the UK… “:O” is only going halfway to describing my reaction :P Needs a bit of work doing on her but aside from that she’s a good ship…oops, getting all nautical here *COUGH*

In any case, I gotta shut up now, posting this from laptop at work and should really be doing other stuff, like…working? :D

Later guys. :P


My life today, and a new blog widget.

June 27, 2007

current mood: content :)

You probably noticed I’ve got a MeeboMe widget on my blog. Feel free to use it, abuse it, leave me whatever so long as it’s not above PG-13 (or UK 15 rating)

Because of the way Meebo works, I’ll probably only check it if I’m out and can’t get at a regular messenger, so don’t expect quick replies or anything. But it’s still cool :)

Now, for the real bloggy bit.

Reasonably OK day today, went over and played Questa Notte as I said in the earlier post, so that’s all good. Made my wrists ache, but hey, I’m good for Saturday’s performance. Started learning Seek & Destroy on the guitar as well. Self-note: I need to play something other than Metallica. Maybe some more Deep Purple? Guys, comment me with suggestions. :O

Bye! :D

Imma playin mah piano.

June 27, 2007

current mood: tired :(

So it’s one day since this blog’s creation, and I gotta go over to my piano teacher’s house to try and get up to speed on an acoustic piano in preparation for a concert I’m performing in on Saturday. I’ll be playing Ludovico Einaudi’s Questa Notte, a fast flowing piece that is one of my favourites. Only downside is around 3 minutes in my wrists start to hurt. Which is why I need to build my stamina on an acoustic before Saturday. Challenge up ahead, guys. :O

As for the guitar, I’ve put my new video up as you can see in the previous post, and I’m working on the next one already, this time Welcome Home (Sanitarium) by you guessed it – Metallica. I’ve entered Fade to Black into the ultimate-guitar.com cover song contest as well. :D

Anyways, I have to go now, otherwise I’m gonna be typing for hours. Later guys :)
