Shadow Graphics

Well, I’ve finally gone and laid the foundation for my website, Jo-shadow.com, which this blog will only be a small part of.

I’ve been working hard to catch up on my HTML, CSS, PHP and javascript, and so far have a working system that reads image gallery data from an xml file via simplexml and some custom-made functions. nothing fancy, but good practice and it works.

The current theme/look is only temporary, i’ll be sure to polish it up in the future, maybe even have switchable CSS styles.

Special Thanks to Wolfire’s Jeff Rosen who graciously helped me work out some bugs.

My appologies for not having update in a long time.

Enless Skies is currently on temporary hiatus for a few reasons:
• On the third day of our work week, something very unfortunate came up in in Geoffrey’s family, and he had to leave on very short notice. This made our close one-on-one collaboration that had helped us be so productive before impossible.
• Soon afterwards, Geoffrey’s computer died, and he is currently in the process of getting a new one.
• School has picked up again, so progress can be a bit slow.

I myself have spent a good bit of time on other projects, for example helping work on Wolfire’s new future game Overgrowth. Much of what I learn in my work for them will be of great use later on when we get further with Endless skies.

I will post about some of the stuff I have done there specifically soon.

Happy Easter!
