9th
With only about one month left, I can spend more time on this blog while simultaneously preparing for the AP tests that will decide what credits I get t the start of college. They’ll save me a bunch of money – but I’m determined to repeat freshman-year Physics so that I can better understand the material, specifically Electricity and Magnetism, which seems to just completely escape me this year – and I mean completely .
Nevertheless, things are going well, and I have some good art to show for it. I’ll upload my entire concentration when it’s finished up in the next few weeks, so you won’t get to see that now. Actually, right now, I’m really focusing on Zelda Universe and its revamp. The designer really needs to send me the site’s new logo so that the template can at least look less like a sketch. However, I have faith that this layout will be incredible when it’s done. Not that it’s not incredible now, but y’know… it can always get better! Always. And it’s jaw-droppingly awesome at the moment – just missing a logo.
Also on the site-end of things, Zelda Wiki.org is looking to expand – and it’s finally moving more out of my hands and into the hands of who I’d like to call "owners", people who I give total site access to including FTP and whatnot. Right now I’m attempting to negotiate with some sites, and hopefully make the collaborative coalition even stronger. Even if it doesn’t add mountains of activity to the site, in the end we look like a more collaborative wiki – and that makes all of our sites look good too. And we all love to look good, don’t we?
It’s not all about looking good, of course. There is a strong message sent with Zelda Wiki, and it’s a collaborative spirit that the internet doesn’t get often enough. It’s a collaborative spirit based on love of being a webmaster and being a gamer, and wanting to share your knowledge with everybody while spurring within your users the need to share their knowledge in the same way. And when you accomplish that, the project simply explodes – and it’s mind-boggling how amazing the content your users come with is.
So, as we wind the school year down, you’ll be seeing more from more. More art, more ZU, more ZW.org, more writing, more everything. Because I’ll have free time. And I guarantee I’ll be bored.
