The Boomerang Page has been totally redesigned. Instead of one

The Boomerang Page has been
totally redesigned. Instead of one giant page with everything I have split it
into several sections. There are several new boomerangs scanned in, too. 

Happy New Year, Everybody

Happy New Year, Everybody!

Wow. Its been a long time since my last update, but I’ve been on
holiday. (Plus my SIDS has been acting up). What’s new? Well,
for one thing, I’ve moved my larger video files
to a faster site, so if you’ve never looked at them because they took too long
to DL, you can do it now (unless your slow connection is the problem).

In other news, Andrew and I wrote a new game over the holiday
break. Perfecto, the
Java-powered shape-matching game is available here.
Its still under test, so if you find any problems with it, let
me know.

ANDREW’S PAGES ARE READY FOR VIEWING

I
finally have a releasable version of my Warhol Art
Maker program. It is available for download, so you can now easily make
your own works of art. Click here to go to that
page.

Perhaps bigger news than that is that Andrew has worked on his
pages a bit. He started them weeks ago, but he’s only now ready for people to
take a look. Who am I kidding? Of course that’s bigger news. I think it deserves
a headline:

Due to some possibly valid complaints, the entire site’s color

Due to some possibly valid complaints, the entire site’s color
scheme has been brightened up a bit. I hope everyone likes it, especially the
complainers. I also fixed 4 grammar problems on the Boomerang page. I hope they
didn’t bug anybody too badly. Keep those suggestions
and complaints coming!

I have added a new page: The Advice
Page. There you will find the wisdom of the ages relating to all things
technical (or at least the geeky stuff I’m interested in).

I have also altered the Bighead
Voting Page to include the results there instead of posting them here
whenever I tally them.

Minor updates to the Boomerang
page. I was loaned The Tauhert Collection and I am gradually scanning
them in. Now you can see the boomerang Andrew Tauhert set his records with.

Added a fabulous new work of art to the Graphics

Added
a fabulous new work of art to the Graphics page. I like Esprit de Michelle so much, I’m putting it here too.

There’s also a new version of the “Holly Angel”
collage there, along with the precursors to my new work of art. One more thing
added to that page is an old abstract painting I did in high school.

By request I also added a link to a
really funny web page. I haven’t had a chance to check it out myself, but I
am assured that it is hilarious. (I aim to please. Keep those comments coming!)

Fixed the Links page so external sites come up in

Fixed the Links page so external sites come up in their own
window instead of inside my frames.

Added a cool black-and-white photo as a place holder for
Michelle’s personal page off of the Family
page.

To the Friends section
of the  Photos page, I added some
snapshots from “Monkey Show 96”, and a self-portrait from the Tahoe
ski trip.

Added a few pieces of art to the Graphics page, including my most recent work, Sleepover,
and to the Doctored Photos page,
some work that’s not even mine. And can’t believe my luck in finding a rare
piece by that noted computer graphics genius, Chris Crosby.

This gave me the idea of creating the email address submissions@brucearmstrong.net so people can send in anything they’d like to see appear here.

Added a short “Monkey Show 96” clip to the Videos

Added a short “Monkey Show 96” clip to the Videos page.

Added the CD Label for “Andrew’s First Mix – 1999” to
the Graphics page.

I’d like to thank everyone for your valuable feedback.
Your Complaints/Praise/Suggestions/Problem Reports are really appreciated.

I’ve just added a couple more photos of the kids and since someone asked for more photos of Michelle and I, I have added a page
of our famous Self-Portraits.
Michelle dug around in some old photos and found a bunch of pictures we took of
ourselves. I
hope you like them, Julie!

Luckily, she also found some old photos of some of the early
works of Digital Boomerang Systems. I scanned some in and added them to the Boomerangs page.

I’ve added a very preliminary Holly page to the mostly-empty Family page.

And lastly, I have added a new form on the Contact
Us page where you can enter your email address if you want to be kept
up-to-date on any changes made to the site. Kind of hokey, but some people are
really interested.

!!!!NEWS FLASH!!!!

The photo everyone’s been waiting for has arrived! Well, sort
of. I couldn’t find the original Bighead1.jpg that caused such a stir in 1994,
but I have used my photo doctoring skills to create a pretty good likeness.
Actually, there are two choices and I’m letting you, the public, vote on which
one is best. Go here
to check them out and vote.

Update: The voting now stands at Bighead3.jpg=71% and Bighead2.jpg=29%. I guess I
shouldn’t have posted results earlier as that seems to have affected the voting
since then, swinging the edge wildly toward Bighead3.

Newer Update: (11/17/00) – The
voting has really taken off and now stands at 50/50.

If I can find the original print, I will rescan it at a higher
resolution so I can create Bighead4.jpg to blow the competition away. I will
recount the votes however many times it takes until my candidate wins.
