Wow, it’s been quite a long time since I’ve posted – too long, in fact. I haven’t unfortunately been doing alot of renders/creating for a while – but have been up to other endeavors which has taken alot of my time. So, I’m happy to be able to announce my latest website and blog for your previewing pleasure!
(I will keep McSAnimations going for quite a while, as I have no need to disable that site yet – but all of my latest renders/news will be posted on my new site.)
I’ve been coding/designing bradymcintosh.com since May and finally have it almost finished (there are still a few pages under construction – like the About pages on my website and blog – need to figure out what to write about myself, lol) I used the Joomla CMS for my website, so that’s taken quite a while to get used to. It allows me to design my entire site visually without having to know a whole bunch of html/php/etc., but I ended up doing alot of coding myself so I could customize things to my liking. I started out with a premade design, but barely anything is left of it visually and most of the code has changed for the better.
Among other things, one new feature that I’ve implemented on bradymcintosh.com is flash galleries for all my digital art! Very happy with how it turned out and easy for me to keep adding to them. The flash galleries can also handle videos which is quite nice.
My new blog is for everything (including film/game/book reviews, photography, etc., etc.) except my digital art (for now). I’ll be keeping McSAnimations Log for my 3d stuff. You can check out my new blog here:
I started out with Blogger on my website (on my own server), but with that you can only use Blogger default themes…and I didn’t really dig their default themes, so I trashed that in a hurry. Again, I wanted more control over everything and custom designs, so I decided to try out WordPress. I’ve been amazed with WordPress and it’s expandibility and am so glad I tried it out. I would definitely use WordPress over Blogger anytime now. There are so many custom plug-ins, themes, and widgets that make it your own blog. So, sign up for my RSS feeds on my new blog and comment all you like!
Bug reporting: if you come across any bugs on bradymcintosh.com of my blog, please use the Contact form on my website and let me know about them (i’ll hopefully be able to figure them out).
Hopefully you haven’t gotten bored reading this long post, lol. Thought I should at least post about what’s been going on and no – I haven’t forgotten about this blog, lol. I’m still around and have a few more projects up my sleeve (which you’ll see soon enough).
ohh, sounds cool, I will go check it out!!
