Check Out My Article in Computer Arts 151

If you find yourself at a bookstore with nothing in particular to read, grab a copy of Computer Arts #151. I had the opportunity to write a small column on digital asset management. I had a heck of a time finding a copy of 151 myself, but I’m sure there are plenty of copies floating around out there. There is also a collection of my free brushes and textures on the CD. I’ve been a contributor to many magazines before, but this is the first “article” I’ve had published, hopefully not the last :)

BittBox V4 Launched!

I’ve needed to re-design the Box for a while now and I finally buckled down and got it done. It’s not perfect by any means, but I think it’s a huge improvement from V3. I still have some work to do, but I was happy enough with the theme to go live. I’ve had a few problems with the comment form, which I plan on fixing, as well as a new “About page” and a few other additions that you might notice in the near future. More after the jump.
