Tweaking to death

5/22/2012

Sometimes the hardest part of being an artist is knowing when to walk away from your project and pronounce the darn thing "FINISHED".  There is always the urge to "tweak" stuff cause you're sure that last little knudge will push the project towards unmitigated perfection.  But (at least in my experience) there never comes a time when you don't feel the need to "tweak".

I've been going through that with the website re-design.  I just finally have to say "We're open for business".  Otherwise, the site will be launched somewhere around 2040.  Luckily, I can easily update this site (much morer easily than my previous FLASH website) so if there is something that deservedly needs an adjustment, I can always do so.

So, we're OPEN for business (literally)!  Hmmmm,.... maybe I'll just nudge that banner position a few clicks to the left first....

Finally getting around to updating my website.  I am going live with stuff as I finish it, even though a lot of it is prolly just placeholder.  Either way,... I'm excited to finally be working on this.  Thank you MobileMe (who hosted my hard-to-update FLASH based website) for going Kapudt, as you forced my hand in this endeavor.

I've never really had a "blog" before.  I'll post mostly ramblings on entertainment and pop culture stuff as well as news and updates on the commercial animation business.  Thanks to anyone who reads this and comments are always welcome.  Cheers!

ps,... It's funny to write about yourself in the third person (see the "Author" description to the right).  I can see why professional athletes dig it.  I may start doing so all the tiime.
