Weekend In

lady_bastet and I invited some friends over last weekend for a
night in. We had a pretty chilled out evening listening to music, drinking,
chatting and, in an homage to cheesy dad's projector slideshows, I showed
some of my digital photos on my notebook.

Some people stayed the night and I had a go at cooking breakfast in the
morning. As far as I know casualties have been minimal :P

I ordered a book about geisha's for lady_bastet, which arrived yesterday. It's produced in a
photo-documentary style and the photography is excellent, bit sparse on
words but it's not that type of book.

Yay Vodafone

I'm sure it's been active for a while but Vodafone have finally opened their
webtext service to other networks.

In the past you could only webtext people with 087 prefixes, then when the
market opened to 086/085, you could still only webtext Vodafone customers.

Now finally you can webtext anyone and with 300 a month, it's pretty good.

Just wish there was an address book feature. Maybe tied in with your email
contacts.

Movies & Camera Oddness

Went to see The Punisher last
night with Tasha, ickle_tayto & Breifne. It was ok but it took a
while to get going and because the character is human, it's not as
fantastical as Spiderman or the Xmen.

On another note, my camera is gone a bit bonkers. A while back my 256MB
Compact Flash card stopped responding. Was lucky enough to get it replaced
for free but that one doesn't work either. The odd things is my 128MB and
less cards work fine. Can't find any answers on the net and I can't return
it cause I bought it from Germany.

What to do...

LJ Commands

Showing my ignorance here, but I'm impressed at the level of customisation
possible in LJ posts.

Almost full HTML support and the additional LJ specific tags give you a lot
more options when posting.

Site Feedback

Feedback seems to be good on the recent additions to my site. Most people in
Dominion checked it out. I should really take pictures of other people to
give a broader interest to visitors.

There's very little photographic promotion of Dominion. When Sindrome was
running, there were photos nearly every week. Any of the big English clubs
have huge photo sections. So I'll try to do my bit assuming people don't
strangle me.

I'll be adding more photos from further back as I get time.

Not too sure about the slideshow control through, runs slow over dialup. I
might try to build plain thumbnail pages instead.
