kyoto sunset

Like my current blog theme? Well, it’s up for download now under a Creative Commons license. Requires Wordpress 2 or greater with pretty much any version of K2 that supports WP2.
I might release some more themes and add some more technical info.

résumé

My newly tricked-out résumé is now online. (Leave the accents off of the URL for your health.) It features some fun XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript, along with a boring PDF. Check it out if you’re into that sort of thing.
As a side note, accents are easy to add on the Mac. Just type Option+e and then the letter that you want to accent. I wonder how it works in Windows.
And now time for homework and perhaps some of that good college application fun.

iTunes 7

Big update to iTunes, but it’s some pretty ugly stuff. What are the scrollbars doing? They don’t fit in to Windows or OS X themes at all. The highlighted option in the source panel is also pretty ugly. However, the improved video playback, the new device manager (also pretty unattractive) and, most importantly gapless playback make this worthwhile.
The new icon is also uglier.

new theme

I took this photo on the Japan trip this summer while we were driving around Kyoto in a tour bus. It’s pretty difficult to take a good shot on a Japanese highway - there are fences everywhere.
It seems that I make new themes about as often as I post here nowadays… Maybe I should make a directory for my K2 styles.

School has been going well. I wrote some automation for Uni’s alumni reunions gallery: a PHP template for generating gallery pages, and an Automator script to create thumbnails. This should mean that I’ll be done with the project pretty quickly, and maybe I can get on to some more interesting stuff. :P
