Webolize - Photoshoot Update

Quick video put together on the day of our photoshoot - it was mostly taken by like - a phone. Soooo not the best quality.

The photos we took will be posted on our facebook. I'm playing the role of, according to our branding guy, the "web 2.0" guy. lmao.

We're also starting a newsletter to keep everyone updated with our progress and were we'll be announcing pricing and referral rates, sign up.

Webolize website is up!

If you know a business in need of a website - let them know about us! If you get us a project there's a reward in it for you. [:

We also constantly post design stuff on our Facebook like page and our Twitter - check it out!

A few of you have asked me and sent me e-mails asking about learning pixel art - I will respond all those questions with a blog post later next week outlining how I picked up the hobby. I hope that'll help.

Projects, Goals, Updates.

Sun, 07 Aug 2011 15:52:54 +0000

Lots and lots of things have been happening, projects floating, progress made, and all sorts of personal goals achieved. Since the BYOND community played such a big role in shaping my talents, and since I have so many friends here - I'd thought I would post a quick update.

Verm and I

Have been toying around with ideas of making a game that would take advantage of BYOND's new Isometric capabilities. The idea was to make a very moldable-player driven Tactics Fighter Sims that would allow players to customize and share Characters, Skills, Equipment, Maps, and Storylines.

We've also began to work on Efencea again, something that I'm really looking forward to sharing once we've made Significant progress.

I've been

Working out of a creative media angency bassed in Philadelphia. I'm a web-developer there, which is Ironic because I'm sure everyone thought I'd end up as some kind of Designer. I've learned a lot about programming and it all has allowed me to have a more balanced perspective on all types of creative projects.

We're starting

A Webolization company called Webolize - we're going to specialize in making Websites and helping companies establish their web presence. It's all still in the works, you can check out our Facebook and Twitter - all forms of exposure is greatly appreciated (Share, likes, word of mouth) and anyone who comes to me with a solid referral will receive a nice finder's fee.

Let me know

What have you guys been up to? Haven't really kept up with BYOND news - any links to recent highlights would be awesome.

Internship - Woot.

Mon, 10 Jan 2011 22:41:59 +0000

I'm now entering the final days of my post-secondary education and with it comes an opportunity to intern somewhere for college credit.

The interview, which I just got back from went really well. Luckily, I was able to score an intern position with them, a local law-firm doing web-development.

Enough about me, what new with you?
p.s. Renewed my byond membership.

Wacom Cintiq 12WX - Digitizer, stylus - Wired - USB

Selling my Wacom Cintiq 12WX, frankly I haven't used it in months. So why not?

I was super excited when I first got it.. but uhh, it's kinda too big for my humble little work station.

Epic Tactics

Someone should make a game similar to FFT but with a bunch of nerdy/geeky parodies.

New Website

Wed, 22 Dec 2010 03:54:52 +0000

My last website was looking mighty shabby. Been working on a major overhaul but that's going to take a lot of time to get at 100%.

And so, I made a minor overhaul of my site to include more up to date information.

Took a total of about 9 hours from concept to completely. Started earlier today - man i'm exhausted. lol.

Check it out:

PS: Can't believe it's already been a year! Only a few weeks left on my membership. :\
