I actually kinda prefer that look; my eyes have seen too many eyecancerish text-on-image-background descriptions lately. Simple text-beside-image descriptions still work best, IMO.

Besides, getting advanced CSS working across all browsers well and getting text showing up in the right place in positioned divs across all browsers and all default font sizes is too much of a pain (and most "artistic" descriptions don't do that properly; some even have broken javascript). sure, it can be done, but I'm not sure the end result is all that worth the effort if you aren't already really good with HTML/CSS/jquery etc.

Any of you getting the feeling that recent offers are losing the artistic touch?
Most looked like it took less than 30 minutes to slap on all the details and voila, ready to go.
Better then some of the old school stuff that has been on baka for ages and no one has adopted. Basic information is all i care about since its ten times better then any other torrent site.

Speaking of new offers, anyone know if there is anything different about the dvd of clannad/after story?

Awesome, I've almost finished preparing an OST collection, and then I see that there's more available for download. Just what I wanted.

/Project stalled....again

Anyone else thinking: "Ugh, it's so cold outside" *Stays inside.*?

It's freaking -5C here in Denmark. Not much compared to other places, but damn it's cold!

EDIT: I hung my laundry outside and now they're stiff like a book! Can't be arsed to have it inside since my space is limited enough as it is. 21 square metres.

ahh..... Looking at old photo albums at my parents house, brings back memories of junior high, before my mustache started growing, all the onee-sans think I'm an inexperienced and cute looking honor student(my grades were awesome). Christmas 10 years ago, all the older choir chicks were all smiles and giggles when talking to me or looking at my direction, but I never joined the choir.
All that went down when puberty kicked in. Fast forward 3 years later, 175cm, 75 kilos, mustache, long hair, brawler and a senior, the junior girls all avoid my because of my scary devilish look.

If I spend 30 minutes on a torrent, I've put in extra time.  Normally it's around 10. >.>

Great free game. Very well designed. Definitively try it out! I had quite a bit of fun (and frustration, as the later levels are quite hard).

EDIT: Also, this T-shirt is awesome:

"A bit of fat", perhaps, but she is not fat.

Her bikini is crooked... its really annoying me. I hate when my bra ends up wonky because it feels horrible.

I get to meet some of my old high school friends today! Not seen most of them in 2-3 years!

Most of my high school class will meet up during the holidays. A few will be missing because they'll be in Japan or Buenos Aires (I think), but nearly all of them will be there. I think I have seen only one of them since I graduated, three years ago.

Looking forward to it.

Been hanging out with old high school buddies for the past few days, though we still see most of each other on a daily basis.
