Inch by Inch and Pixel by Pixel

Have you ever had one of those projects, where you just have the hardest time getting anything done? That’s how it seems to be with my current project.
I mentioned in the last post, that Art and I are getting ready to launch a new web site and podcast. Art has taken over the web master duties, I’m taking care of Podcast production, and we are both going to be creating content for the web site.
Now, Art is making leaps and bounds on the site, and it’s really coming along nicely. Me on the other hand, I’m wallowing in non-productivity.
I’ve can only put in 2 or 3 hours every night, and I even have to skip a night here and there. That should be plenty of time, right?
Remember Mike, “slow and steady wins the race”.
I’m going to keep plugging away, and we hope to have something up by Wednesday or Friday. When we do launch, I can give you all a URL or two to look at.
(Art, we still good on Wednesday? Maybe Friday?)
I’m planning on doing a bunch of video tutorials, and last night I was working on a opening screen for the video, and it came out really nice. Then I realized that the right side of my title is getting cut off by the you tube logo. I may try blip.tv or some other service and see if it works there.
I’ve got three videos recorded, but I still have to edit and narrate them, I’ve got my VMWare Server set up, and my first virtual machine running.
I’m really can’t wait to tell everyone about what we’ve been working on, but I want to wait until we’re ready. After re-reading the above, I can see that I am making more progress than I thought. It’s just that I want to have launched it yesterday, and already have started working full time on the project. Patience Mike, Patience.
Just a little bit of a giveaway, the picture here is a cartoon of me, and it’s part of our logo. The daughter of a friend of ours was nice enough to create cartoon characters of Art and I. We scanned them in, and Art has been doing some incredible work to make a logo.
OK, that’s enough for now. Stay tuned.

Crap, I wasn’t finished.
Anyhow…
It’s not going to be pretty. I’m not a professional designer so the site is going to wind up looking like an idiot threw it up in a hurry. I think it won’t reflect all the work I’m putting in to it, anyway.

<p>Whatever! Your being too modest, the site already looks terrific, you did a tremendous job with the logo. It looks top notch!</p>

Stop. You’re making me blush.
