Jim, to save this folder form filling up with lots of quick
questions, is there another way to contact you for minor questions
or is it OK to ask them in this folder?
I was just wondering on how the various SKUNKWORKS sites are coming
along.
Thank you Jim.
You can either ask them in the forum, place them in the Questions
folder, or send them to me via e-mail. However, I don't always
check my e-mail (sometimes it takes a few weeks!), so it'd be a
better bet to put the questions in the folder.
To date, this is how everything is coming along:
SKUNKWORKS: Several smaller sections are done, and the new
Merchandise section is over 90% complete. Just need to do some more
scanning and some tweaking to that section before I can upload it.
The biggest hold-up on this site is the animation feature; I know
the program I require exists, but I've not been able to find out
what the name of the program is. This particular program is
necessary to complete the "live studio tour" option for the site.
If anyone has seen the stick-figure animation called "Xiao Xiao" (I
think that's how it's spelled) part 4, the animator combines Flash
animation with a 3-D type rendering program which illustrates the
buildings and scenery. This is the program I'm trying to find.
Does anyone here know what it's called?
BY THE TAIL: Should be done in about a week. The site has a whole
new layout and design, plus new artwork, comics, and sections. Keep
your eyes peeled!
CATERWAUL: Because my dumb ass made the mistake of deleting the site
from the computer before I was certain I had backed it up, the site
has a lot of reconstruction left to go. The "Missions" section is
done, as are most of the "Black" team bios. I still have to finish
the artwork for the "Red" team bios, and then write out their
information. I'll post more info on this as I get the opportunity
to work on it.
CORSAIR: Pending Desiree's commitment to the book, as well as
publication procedures, this site is on hiatus. Des is currently
busy with "By The Tail" stuff, plus she's also trying to do some
work on "A Day In The Life". If I can, I'll post a page from "A
Day..." when I next see her.
***THE HIDDEN SITE***: Currently in it's third redesign (I wasn't
too sure of the theme when I first started, but it's secured now!).
Aside from featuring never-before-seen-art, it will also tell the
story (and feature the art) of such characters as Onika, Koth,
Khetzel, Treska, etcetera. Coincidentally, their story also ties in
with events in the "Caterwaul" and "Skunkworks" storylines, as well
as our own lives here on planet Earth. Heh heh. Confused yet?
I reckon that's about it. I'm only one person, and I do have a
regular job (plus other shit to deal with), but I work on these
sites when I can. The first up will be "By The Tail", then
either "Caterwaul" or "Skunkworks". Depends on whether or not I can
find that friggin' program...
