For people who are interested in Student Wars<\/a>, the second-to-last expansion (Internships) has been uploaded for your playing pleasure. I’ll work on Loose Ends eventually and wrap up the game.
\nIn related news, work on the graphical cards for the STD Card game, work on the base sets for the Supernatural card game and RPG Get! card game system, and work on Student Wars v2 have all been delayed because I’m busy with school and other life stuffs.<\/p>\n

I photographed Tom and Car yesterday as the first part of my next assignment for portrait.
\nFeedback on these would be helpful, as I don’t want to do horribly on another portrait assignment.
\nBleh.
\nMost of these have been slightly cropped, but the framing still bothers me (if anything, the recropping to try and confirm to what the professor considers “good” is what bothers me, since I like the full frames on many of these)… not sure what to do about that.
\nMeh.
\nHow is it possible to hate photo so much, given that I immensely enjoy photographing?
\n
\nIn the full version, part of her elbow is still out of the frame. I tried cropping it down, but it still looks weird. Bleh.
\n
\nCropped too close to her head, maybe?
\n
\nI like this more than the full one, where she is more centered in the frame.
\n
\nNot sure about the cropping of this.
\n
\nI’m torn about this one, because I really like it, but I feel like my professor won’t.
\n
\nI like this one.
\n
\nOnce again, arms being partially out of the frame, and unsure how to fix it…<\/p>\n

God, what is it with me and partially cutting arms out of the frame? It’s not something I’d normally notice, except it was one of the (few) things specifically pointed out to me… but the thing is, it doesn’t bother me that they’re cut off, and so it’s not something I think about while photographing. If anything, it bothers me when you see the entire arm in the frame, because it looks weird.
\nIs it my fault that my artistic sense doesn’t conform to the general sense? Things that I find artistic never match what other people like. And if it wasn’t for the fact that it affects my QPA, I wouldn’t care.
\nI hate hate hate hate hate hate hate photo -_-
\nI just want to go out and take photos and not have to care about this stuff, because I enjoy it, and the stuff comes out good *enough*. Why am I spending time stressing about this? Grargh.
\nI swear, if I was less anal about losing half a semester of work, I’d drop this class and be so much better off for it.<\/p>\n

Content is continually being added to CMU Adventures<\/a>. I’m currently working on the Doherty 1\/B content, and will start on Wean 4\/NSH soon. If you haven’t yet, creating an account and playing would be much appreciated, as the game could use all the testing it can get.
\n…
\nAt least there’s something<\/em> I’m good enough at.
\n*sighs*
