    Back To The Basics

    By wil,

    Well, I'm working on a totally new mocing project, which I'm calling "Back to the Basics." In This, I will be attempting to re-moc every set, or at least one of every clone set, up to 2004. This includes Rahi, Toa, etc. I already have a new matoran design I'm going to use, and It'll be nice.
     
    I've already finished Tahu, Jala, Huki, Onepu, Takua, and Matoro. There are a few more Matoran I'll do along the way, from MNOLG and MNOLG 2. I'm also doing the ussals from MNOLG, etc.
    Just some teasers, plus two Mctoran I put together for fun (Matoro has two of the same arms because the normal one is really dirty...).



    and the Mctoran -

    I have Onepu (Mctoran) in another room, but my brother is sleeping in there. XD

    First off, I know that's not a word.
     
    First time I've posted or written a blog entry or posted in a while, but I've got to say, this thing with GregF is absolutely pathetic. I mean, he decides to leave because you bunch of kids pester him and just do things utterly stupid, and yet you try to MAKE him come back? I'd expect better.
     
    Check out these two topics.
     
    Now, if he decided to leave because of feeling pressured, do you honestly think trying to pressure him into coming back will help? Really, that is absolutely pathetic.

     
    Okay,
    Everyone is entitled to their opinions, if they want to express that Greg isn't their favorite writer, they can. It gets bad when people dive in to his defense, making a ###### huge deal about it, and then the topic's starter goes into arguments with them.
     
    I realize this site is aimed towards children ~8-13 years of age, but I'm amazed that no one has sufficiently taken care of this [REMOVED - Can't use explicit acronyms. -Shine].

    Axalara!

    By wil,

    Axalara is epic. Epic. Epic. Epic. EPIC.
    'tis epic.
     
    ...
     
    'Nuff said.
    I've modded it quite a bit, and I got rid of that awful, primate-like rider.
    I'm about to go take some pics of my Tahu olda moc, Jala, and the Nui-Rama, so... well... I dunno what else to say.
    Bai bai ppl B)

    Defining "bionicle"

    By wil,

    So, I was talking with a really close friends of mine about our past, more youthful obsessions. Her's ("hers"?) was Pokemon. Mine was Bionicle. Now, we're both major bookworms. She said that she considered reading the books in elementary, and decided against it. Then, she asked me what they were about. After about half a second of deliberation, I said that it's "like Zoroastrianism, but with robots, supernatural powers, and a religion-thing".
     
    There it is, folks'. Bionicle in a nutshell.
  8. wil
    Okeeees.
    So, you all know how I was working on the Bionicle Media Center.
    Those same among you probably know that it's development has ground to a halt.
     
    Why?
     
    Well, even fewer of you know that I am a paid graphics and web designer.
     
    Here are a few examples of my work.
     
    Wilnichols.com
    opt-6.com
     
    And, the newest, in which I have delved farther into Javascript than I prefer to (and due to it being javascript, ONLY USE INTERNET EXPLORER 8, SAFARI 3-4, OR FIREFOX 3),
     
    kameleonapp.com.
     
    It's epic.
     
    And, that's just the placeholder.
     
    I've also been working on a stock icon set, and it's coming along nicely. My partner whom shall remain unnamed and I are aiming for around +300 32px stock icons to be marketed to developers. This is what I have thus far.

    Very few are final - everything with a CD needs to be redone, I'm redoing the packages, the cabinets could be improved, etc.
     
    I also have a few other projects... All of which you will learn of eventually

    Misprints!

    By wil,

    YAYZ! I've purchased Toa Onuta's two brown misprints, and I have a trans-light-blue kaukau coming in from Czar in two or three days.

    Omgosh!

    By wil,

    Even better than before. I just found out that my friend who works for Adobe can get me the CS4 Master Suite. For $150. Wow.

    2009 Sets

    By wil,

    » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 
    Okay. I normally try not to complain about the sets, but I can't resist here.
     
    I hate them.
     
    Well, thats a bit strong.
     
    I dislike them.
     
    First off, they have a strange Knights Kingdom feel to them which I dislike.
     
    Also, once again, to a large extent, they are clones!
     
    The small sets are pretty much just re-colors of the avatoran (entry on the conjugation of prefix+matoran coming soon ), and the canister sets use the inika skeleton again.
     
    On the mocing side of things, I see myself getting much of these.
    The return of tan is wonderful, plus light-blue.
    The re-colors will also be great for mocing.
    Keetorange and metru-blue feet, lime green blades, feet, etc... A black Brutaka blade, tan piraka feet, gold inika should armor and thigh armor.... tish nice.
     
    I don't like the new hand pieces, they just don't fit my taste.
     
    My main complaint is that the masks don't work with the current mask style. I was hoping that in computer terms, it would be cross-compatible.
     
    On to the blow by blow (it blows).
     
    Atakus - meh. Avatoran clone - a face only a mother could love.
     
    Berix - meh. Nice recolors, the tahu mata sword and feet would be nice to have.
     
    Removed. Do not talk about leaked information. -Kohaku
     
    Gresh - meh. A bit to Knights Kindomy for me. Once again, the re-colors could be put to use. Did anyone notice that the hand piece in the shield is one of the pre-2008 ones? These were designed a while back.
     
    Malum - *shudders*
     
    Metus - meh. Colors could be useful.
     
    Raanu - meh. The blades and feet could be put to use.
     
    Skrall - IMO, worse than Malum. Reminds me of Vladek.
     
    Strakk - meh. the head and armor are impractical for mocing, and I don't see any good re-colors.
     
    Removed. Do not talk about leaked information. -Kohaku
     
    Tarix - A bit too Knights Kingdom, but all the same, gold re-colors plus mata blue feet = om nom nom.
     
    Tuma - not sure what to think. The re-colors are good, the face is fugly. It's a run-of-the-mill titan.
     
    Vorox - TANTANTANTANTAN!!!
     
    Zesk - Avatoran clone. But, TAN!

    Woooooot!

    By wil,

    Okay, so some of you (my peepoles! ) know that I'm really busy. Busy with a making a portfolio and website for an architectural firm. Well, to start, we've agreed on $50 per sheet. They have more than 20, possibly 40. AND, I'm making them a website for $15 per hour. Epic, no?
     
    I also got my savings and checking (paypal purposes only XD) accounts set up for online banking today, as I do work with people in other states and countries, it is the best way for them to pay me. I had no idea how much money I had... XD I'm happy. Of course, all of that is going to college, and a car in what is now the not-so-near future... :'( I feel oooooold. XD

    Going To Be Gone

    By wil,

    Well, this is terribly ironic. I got back from France. I'm at home. We were on a small, 36 person plane where we could not keep our carry-ons, and they had them at the back of the plane. Afterwards, my computer's screen was broken, the disc drive mangled, and completely rendered useless. I have an appointment with tech support tomorrow, so I won't be on for a while - I'm typing this from my mother's computer now.

    Bionicle Media Center

    By wil,

    Okay. This is epic. Very epic.
    With all the free time on my hands, I decided to try and code some things which I havn't messed with before.
     
    For instance, a media center.
     
    The flash episodes (with working scripts), the ghost animations, vahki animations, and whatever games I can get working. This will be epic.
     
    btw, yes, I do have working 2002-2003 episodes, which are not protected.

    Well first off, I vectorized Flanders for fun.

     
    Also, the new Macbooks, Macbook Pros, and especially the new Cinema Displays SUCK. They are ugly. Whoever thought of Aluminum, black, and gloss and got drunk on it should be shot. Even is it was Ives.
     
    Czar shipped the kaukau today, and I have a reserved Yellow Kaukau waiting for me over in the UK.

    Kameleon! :d

    By wil,

    As most know, I'm a maccie. As most know, I try to code software. As most know, I make icons in Photoshop. As most know, I code websites.
     
    I am part of the staff of OPT-6 Software (I'm only responsible for the site a graphics, I didn't do the content or code the apps). Our face app is called Kameleon, which is a theming app for macs (10.5 and up). I have just finished the icons for version 2.0, and it IS EPIC.

    I MADE THEM!!!
    EDIT - The app should be out before next wednesday. We hope.

    Moar Misprints!

    By wil,

    Okay, this is like stamp collecting, but even more trivial. jk
     
    So, I now have a green ruru and trans-yellow Kaukau coming in from Denmark!
    Czar shipped his, and the ones from New Zealand should be arriving this week. I'm also chatting with Czar about trading for his blue Matatu.
