dont you hate when you get to that point where you're like "i know ive spent 3 months working on this, but i already think its bland!" and debate starting over... again?....
less is more. less is more. less is more. c'mon subconcious.....

yup, thas why it takes me forever to put up my website.
i finally decided to just not relaunch.
i bought a new domain and am hoping that it will keep me inspired to work. i HATE doing serious shit for myself, so im just screwing off on the new one.
bleh

yup, just went through it with my new site.
less IS more.

yap, know what you're talking about kerus, cept it's not 3 months more like 9 months. don't have a job right now so i guess it's now a priority. when you're gainfully employed, having a portfolio site isn't that big of a deal.
BTW, i have probably 30 different designs for the past year on my site, all pretty put together, just keep abandoning them.
- Biofreak0
seriously.
i even completed a design for my current posted site. i just decided i didnt wanna screw with it anymore, so i didnt bother to post it.
haha, i set a date for the new year to finish my new one, but things are looking grim on that deadline.

what you all have said all sounds toooo familiar... my sites been as-is for at least 6 or 8 months...
and it's nothign special in itself..i had tons of free time and did nothing for my site.. now that i actually have quite a bit of work, i can never be productive on my OWN stuff..

bio: my week off for thanxgiving was my "big redesign week".. i redesigned several plates of nachos and thats about it.

i redesign the layout of my living room furniture so i can get closer to my TV with Grand Theft Auto 3 on.
wheeeeeeeeee.
- kerus0
dammit, is it that good? im starting to believe the hype..
the soundtrack is freakin good as hell.. all this intensely crappy 80's music that makes me twitch, i love it.
too bad the controllers have more than an A+B+start+select! i get confoozed

You're thinking about Vice City, not GTA3.
- Biofreak0
yea, i dont have vice city.
i dont want it either. i would never get ANYTHING done. but it sure is fun as hell

also, i think we maybe put a little too much effort and sh*t into our 'personal' sites. i often think it's more impressive if the site is just simple/to the point and the work is awesome.
just a thought.

oh whatever. ill stick to my castle-f'n-vania fr GBA thank you very much
- bamboofever0

- Biofreak0

- Biofreak0

you bring some nachos, ill bring the chronic and we'll waste our time in a royal party.
you up for it kerus?
- kerus0
beats xmas shopping!
that reminds me. i need a freakin afterburner backlight.

the first 80% of design is fun and inspiring. the next 10% is tedious. and the last 10% rarely gets done unless i'm getting paid.
often i'd rather start over than finish the last 20%.
but sometimes, i post it anyway and just deal with it. (the bill gates mentality rather than the steve jobs mentality)
- kerus0
xrusos: AMEN....

I'm actually quite excited about my current redesign project. For once I feel like I might have pulled off something quite nice for myself.
Perhaps part of the reason is that I've decided that I don't give a flying rip about what other peeps think. :^)
