Now thing’s are moving

I now have all the old pages moved into the Geeklog system. For now they are just encased in GL shells, same content. Most of them will probably stay that way. As I have time, I will move some into more appropriate plugins – ie gallery, downloads.

The contact link above will send email to me. I may add a spam-resistant email address link later.

Please let me know if you find any problems.

2001 Old News

2001/12/31: Well, since nobody visits this page I didn’t notice right away that all the links pointed back to the old @home site. And I thought I checked that!

2001/11/20: Site moved.

2001/11/11: NEW eBook section. I plan to put the eBooks I’ve reformatted for iSilo. First one: The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night, Vol 1, by Richard Burton.

Ditched the Let iCab Smile link – nice idea, but their validation doesn’t always work right.

Also dropped the Bandwidth Preservation Society link – they seem to be kaput.
Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.

2001/7/11: Decided to move the page back to @home.

Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.

I got a full set of the Video Girl Ai manga, so that’s going to slow down the Dragon Half manga. But, expect to start seeing VG Ai translations for Palm OS!

2001/3/9: OK, finally finished Dragon Half Book 3. Also added HTML versions of the Dragon Half manga.

Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.

I figured out my @home problems, but I’ll leave things at work for now (email is good to any address you find on the site – I haven’t synced all pages yet).

2001/1/29: Having continuous troubles with @home, so I moved the site to my works’ server. It’s not a big bandwidth drain, so it shouldn’t be a problem. Otherwise, that’s all. Still poking along at the Dragon Half manga.

2000 Old News

2000/10/1: Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.

  • Note: Editing of translations of volumes 2 & 3 of the Dragon Half Trilogy will take a while – none of the character names are prefixed to the dialog, so I must enter them all in as I go. Even with a scrapbook to paste them in, it’s laborious on a Palm.

2000/7/17: Woohoo! Finally got the timing right of remembering to do it and the Turnpike’s “Add Link” page being available. But it looks like they just updated the URL – I’m still only listed in the Personal Pages section.

  • Dragon Half Vol 1 Book 2 translation for Palm OS added. Also minor formatting change to Vol 1 Book 1.

2000/6/15: New Dragon Half manga translations (for Palm OS only).

  • Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.

2000/5/16: Cool! iSilo (for Palm OS) versions of the manga translations!

2000/5/7: Well, that was a long break! I’m just doing too many things at once – time to simplify again (it happens every few years).

  • Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status.
  • Cleaned up the HTML so that my new favourite browser, iCab, will smile. So far the first stage of smiling is achieved (yellow/neutral smile) and maybe someday I’ll pick it apart some more to get the full blue smile ^_^
  • I have a new version of the GIS Converter ready, but I need to tidy up the package a bit and add some legal mumbo-jumbo.
  • I also have a new Kanji SKIP lookup application, but again I need to finish up some things first.

1999 Old News

1999/10/27: Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status

1999/10/9: NEW DIGS! Finally got tired of the connection problems I’ve been having with ExecPC dialup (as well as tieing up my phone line) and went for a cable modem. Please update bookmarks.

  • Updated AMG! Dark Horse translation status
  • Oops. In moving my site I discovered that most of my anchor links were broken at the old location (fixed a few other things, also). Probably happened back when I reorganized my site ^_^

1999/9/9: It’s about time for another update – I’ve been a little too busy/lazy/distracted lately.

  • Updated the AMG! Dark Horse translation status

1999/5/1: Added 2 chapters to the Sazan Eyes translations

  • Updated the AMG! Dark Horse translation status
  • Updated GIS Converter v1.5.2. Bug fix, and added TIGER 97 support.

1999/3/31: Updated the AMG! Dark Horse translation status (I hope to be updating this more frequently now, about once a month – I just needed a Dark Horse bookmark in my monthly set ^_^).

1999/3/25: New GIS Converter v1.5.1. Bug fix.

1999/3/4: New GIS Converter v1.5. Added TIGER conversion (lines only).

1999/1/10: The Software page is done – just one application for now: GIS Converter.

I reorganized the file structure of this site a little. Links to all of the main sub-pages are changed and bookmarks will have to be recreated. Most files and deeper pages have the same links. Sorry for the inconvenience.

1998 Old News

1998/12/26: Added a bunch of new Misspelled Anime Titles. Enjoy. Also, the software utility page is almost ready.

1998/11/15: Started into volume 2 of Sazan Eyes manga:finished up Fujii Yakumo stories. A bit of a style change for the translation table of contents pages to make navigation a little easier. Lightened up the translation backgrounds some more so the pages should be easier to read (I originally did these on my old PB 520c – not a very good screen for graphics).

1998/10/16: Finished up volume 1 of the Sazan Eyes manga: Fujii Yakumo part 1-3.

1998/9/28: Updated the Misspelled Anime Titles page with titles from the most recent incarnation of the thread. Lots of new crossover titles! (among others) Also split the page up since it was getting so big.

1998/7/30: I’ll probably never get to doing any MIDI stuff, so why have a disabled link on the front page. I also added a line in each translation chapter that I did some editing.

1998/7/24: I added AMS chapters 17-20 translations. This is all I have (actually I have a couple from volume 4, but there’s a gap and Dark Horse has translated those too). I’ll be slowly working on 3×3 Eyes now.

1998/7/1: Finally fixed the volume 2 stars for the AMG! translation page (it’s about time I remember to do that! ^_^)

1998/6/25: Added 2 chapters of Sazan Eyes manga translations.

  • Moved the original translator info to the start of each chapter.
  • Fixed a couple other bad links.

1998/6/22: I thought I would add a news & updates section to make it easier to see what’s been going on. I’m close to having chapters 4 & 5 of Sazan Eyes manga ready. This will round out the current story – “The Devil Eyes Mystery”.

Not long before 1998/6/22: Fixed some loopy links in the AMS! translations.

Manga translations for Sazan Eyes will be posted as I find time.

I will also be adding a section for various utilities I’ve written – mostly for work, converting GIS data and batch editing Illustrator drawings, and for now very simple and crude. I have time at my job for software development so I will eventually be spiffing them up. I think I will wait until then to post them here. I also need to work out with my boss ownership & copyright type stuff.

I don’t know when I’ll ever get to working on any MIDI files. There’s a stacks of sheet music and MB’s of MIDI files I’ve collected that demand attention.

<Sigh> So much time, so little to do. Wait, back up, reverse that. (Willie Wonka)
