I won 35 prizes in 2008

I won 35 prizes in 2008, more prizes than I ever dreamed I'd win this year. And I won 9 prizes last year so the total number of prizes I have won is 44 for 2007/2008. I can't wait to see what sweepstakes prizes I win next year. See you in 2009.

Make Human

On the wings 3d forum I found a link to a program called Make Human. Make Human allows you to easily make a 3d model of a human. I got very excited when I saw the make human website and could not wait to try the program, but I did not have time to downloaded make human the first time I went to the website.

A couple days ago I went to the make human website and downloaded the make human program. The download took about an hour and a half on my slow Internet connection, but I got it downloaded and installed on my computer. I tried using make human, but was totally confused as to how to use the program so I downloaded the documentation from the website and have been reading it for the past few days.

Here is an article about make human on blender nation.

Cool chess websites

Yesterday I read a post on lifehacker about chess that had some links to chess websites. As I have mentioned before on this blog I want to learn chess. But unfortunately I have not made much progress on that goal. I have not even finished the wiki book I got on chess yet because I stopped reading it awhile ago.

The lifehacker post got me excited about learning chess. The post had 3 links to chess websites, but I have only visited the flash chess website so far and it looks great. I want to play a lot of chess on flash chess so I can get good at the game.

Past win Gelaskins laptop cover

This is the Gelaskins 13" laptop cover I won in may. I don't know what else to write so I will just write that it's a nice prize. Also I had never heard of laptop covers before I entered the sweepstakes.

Past win, Book

I won the book fast profits in hard times in may of this year from a daily entry sweepstakes. It just came in the mail one day, what a surprise. I have not read the book yet, I hope to read it someday thought. I love reading books.

Bad website design

I can't think of anything else to write about to day so I'll write about Web Pages That Suck another website I got from about.com. It's a website I want to read, but I always forget to read it.

I don't have much to write about web pages that suck other then to say I want to start reading the site regularly and it looks cool. I also hope to have my website featured on web pages that suck someday.

Human Anatomy

One thing I want to learn more about is human anatomy. I like computers and learning how they work, but I think anatomy is even more interesting. I have thought about looking on the web for a anatomy website, but I never got around to it. Today is my lucky day because I read a post on make blog about an anatomy website called Think Anatomy. I hope to learn a lot from the website.

Leaning anatomy seems like a huge challenge and I don't know if I can learn that much about anatomy, but I will try.

Not doing enought programming

I feel I have not been doing enough programming and that frustrates me. As I have mentioned before I want to put up a website, but I have not been doing much programming lately, because I have been doing other things online like reading emails and RSS feeds.

So I want to cut down on the amount of emails I get and hopefully that will give me more time to learn how to program and work on a website. I also want to use that extra time to make 3D models and work with gimp.

Back to programming. I have been doing it for a few years now and I never seem to progress that much. I mean I have never designed my own program and that is something I want to eventually do. But maybe with a lot of practice I can get better I don't know.

Animation meat update

I just want to write about animation meat again today. In my earlier post about animation meat I said I wanted to do some animation tutorials on the site, but after I wrote about animation meat on my blog I looked at the site again and I did not find the tutorials I wanted to do. I did not look at the website close enough before I decided I wanted to do the animation tutorials. The tutorials probably have not been available for awhile.

I was disappointed when I saw the animation tutorials I wanted to do were no longer on animation meat and I wish I would have download them when the were available, but I got over it. I still want to lean how to draw animation thought.

I still draw every day and I still think I am not very good at drawing, but I keep drawing anyway.

Wow, I have written over 220 posts

Today I just want to congratulate myself for writing over two hundred twenty posts. When I started this blog I never thought I would be able to find ideas for that many posts. The posts may not be that good, but I keep posting and that is all that matters. I only have one hundred forty posts to go to reach my goal of posting on my blog every day for a year. I hope I make my goal.

This is the Mad money DVD I won in June. I have not watched the DVD yet, but I hope to watch it someday.

Leopard Programming langauge

I don't have much to write about leopard, but I will write about it anyway. I thought I had mentioned all the programming languages I have tried, but I forgot about leopard. I can't remember using leopard, I just downloaded the compiler that's all.
