Broke
The last couple of days have shown an amazing number of visitors to my site – way more people than I’ve seen before. However, you people are using up all my bandwidth, very, very quickly! I’ve spent almost $1 this week alone – which is way up from the typical $0.10/week that I was paying before.
So I’m going to have to bring up the dreaded “D” word again.
I’m hoping to avoid having this site go down again because of lack of funds, and if you would like to help prevent this, please show your support through a donation.
If you like either or both of my plugins, and would like to keep them available and up to date, please take a moment and donate a couple of bucks to me through. I use PayPal, which should work with any payment method you want to use, but if you want to donate in a more direct way, you can email me to discuss it.
Also, you can always link to my site, or tweet about it – Linkbacks and Tweetbacks back to you will be added automagically! So we can help each other out!
You can also give my plugins a good rating on Wordpress, if you want.
Thanks!

wow-amory Plugin ver 1.6 pending…

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

Thanks to acedanger, I discovered that Wowhead has a ’secret’ option buried in their code that allows you to display enchantments and gems on an item. I’ll be updating the code to use this feature as time permits, and should have a new version ready shortly – maybe not as soon as tomorrow, since I have to go to a funeral tomorrow, and Friday, but I promise I’ll get it done ASAP (this is a feature I myself wanted to have, but assumed it was impossible until now…)

Politications

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

I’m sick of politics, elections, ballots, whatever.

It started out on a slightly high note, way back when there were 50,000 candidate hopefuls, but as time went on, the constant news the inundated the radio, TV, and Internet of where which candidate was going to be and when, what they were doing, what they were saying at this obscure city, took it’s toll, until I was distancing myself from the whole charade.

D&D Adventure Update: Background and Synopsis

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

Well, I haven’t had much time to work on it (or anything, really)… work has been superchaoticness, and I’ve been working on finalizing Louisa’s Portfolio Site.  But, despite all that, I spent a little bit of time today getting my Background and Synopsis written up for the Adventure.  Now, this is a first, rough draft… I’m having trouble figuring out the exact formula to use for the Background and the Synopsis… I’m more anxious to get to the meat of the adventure, so I don’t really know how to write it out.  I have a ton more than this written up, I just haven’t reached a point where I would like to share it, just yet.  Anyway, here’s the Background and the Synopsis to show where I’m planning to go with it.  As always, comments, suggestions and support are always appreciated.

Background

The town of Heartwood is a quiet, peaceful community, tucked between the Serpent River, the Blue River, and the Thunderhill Mountains.  Although the town is in an ideal spot for trade – sitting at the hub of two trade routes in conjunction with the two rivers – it is relatively far enough away from the major cities and nations that it is able to avoid many of violent wars and disputes over the years.  The people of Heartwood have been very lucky to live in such peace.  However, their peace may be short-lived.  Whispered rumors have been spreading around town, over the last few months, regarding sinister goings on in the abandoned Thundercrown Castle – a fortified stronghold constructed near the top of the Thunderhill Mountains, overlooking the town and the well-traveled mountain pass since time forgotten.  During the reassuring light of day, the townsfolk scoff at such tales, once the sun goes down, the people tend to stay behind locked doors.

(Note: If you’re intending to play in my PbP Campaign, I wouldn’t read the rest… there’s still 3 slots open!)
