Cavendish b3.0

Here's a little glimpse of the latest version of Cavendish my Flash based CMS (Content Management System).

Its basically an online application that allows users to edit their website's content. I'll post later this week detailing Cavendish's feature set (It's surprising versatile with b2.0 running an online store already).

I'm currently building beta version 3.0 - quite a few improvements being made, mostly behind the scenes, but noticeably the GUI is being streamlined.

I'm also finally getting round to implementing an automated publishing function that generates a simple HTML only site. This will allow universal access to the core content. So mobile devices and public computers (with no flash player installed) will be able to view the site and it'll make the sites fully search engine indexable.

My life of games (& computers & geekyness) Pt. i

I was reminiscing recently about great games I've played...

So here in some semi-chronological sense is a guide to my life (I played a lot more but these were the friends who's passing I lament most);

Pt I: My Dad's Apple Macintosh Classic, Apple Macintosh Plus, and Apple Macintosh SE.

Check out the awesomeness that is early Macintosh mouse.

? Inigo Get's Out
Very early kid's game made with Hypercard I think. I used to spend hours making my own similar games.

Warlock
So very cool.
Stunt Copter
Casual gaming, the modern phenomena?
LIFE and DEATH
This one was my brother's, I never really understood it - as far as I remember I never got past the first patient. It scared me. A lot... surprisingly enough my brother's now a doctor
Fokker Triplane
Another of my brothers impossibly hard games
Artillery
Fantastic multiplayer. Seconded only just by the one game I can't remember the title of... Maybe an edit to come when I talk to my brother or look through an old cupboard!
Sitting Duck
Pretty sweet. I remember the noises being class.
? Periapt
? Trek

Multiplayer back then...

Vic Reeves, he certainly knows how to dance!

So I haven't pixelled in quite a while. Actually it must be pretty close to a year.

One site that I like to frequent is pixeljoint. They often run interesting little weekly challenges. This week's was to make a 48x48 pixel, 8 frames, dance animation. Eh voila:

TOOLS: Photoshop & ImagaeReady
12 colours (1 is transparency). Took a little while to do this but I think I've eased back in the pixelling lifestyle. I heart pixels.

Its referenced from the outro of 'The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer.' Check it out if you haven't. But its a perhaps fat and balding Reeves...

What's all this blog about

Good question.
Basically willfaulds.blogspot.com supports my portfolio @ willfaulds.com


So what's the difference?

Well, it differs from willfaulds.com in that it shows my ramblings, doodles and unfinished works. Generally willfaulds.com doesn't.
