Welcome to my redesign - okay, I'm kidding. This is a temporary "interval" theme. It didn't take too long. I am still redesigning but mean while, I'm putting this up. Why? I have some other projects I need to get stuck into, which reduces my time a little. I'd also like to contemplate my redesign a bit as I'm currently unsure about its direction. To understand more and the reasons behind my interval theme, read I haven't redesigned, but stay tuned!

I’m definitely still alive

Can you believe it? I haven’t updated since March 15th. Actually, it’s quite easy to believe. I’m pretty slack. I suppose the main reason for my absence on my own blog has been due to life being completely crazy for me since around the beginning of March. It has literally been a rollercoaster ride. What this meant for me, was huge stress, high emotions. I got sick quite a bit as well.

Because of those things, my creativity level has been very, very low. I haven’t been able to find much in the way of inspiration and any time I did, I just could not execute. Even my photography suffered and I didn’t update my photoblog for ages.

It’s slowly changing though and my to-do list is growing larger and larger, as you can see below

  • WordPress update. I still haven’t updated to 2.5
  • Redesign - I still haven’t redesigned and have been planning on it since last year. But I have some ideas, finally
  • Commissions - I have a couple of redesigns to do for other people built on WordPress
  • Complete various art projects of my own
    • Vector-vexel-styled image of David Forbes, referenced from a photo taken by Kym van Vliet
    • Some journal CSS projects for deviantART
    • More wallpapers, tutorials etc that I plan to release here on my site
    • Updates to PocketT for WordPress 2.5 to it works 100%, plus other bits and pieces for it
    • A new free theme
    • And finally, actually getting free html/css templates up like I was supposed to but never got to
  • Just more activity in general, both on my blog and others

I’m sure there is more! So hopefully, starting today, I’ll be updating more regularly. Fingers crossed life doesn’t go “boo” again. :)

    Looking forward to the redesign, Nyssa!

    Btw, your feed (the Feedburner and normal Wordpress feed address) doesn’t seem to be updating in my reader. I’m not sure if it’s just me?

    Hey Nyssa,

    Feeling guilty about not updating your blog? Check me out, almsot a year since I ‘abandoned’ web and the city …

    I’m looking forward to your redesign as well. Glad to see you are being creative again.

    Cheers.

    It’s been a while since I updated my blog too, so don’t worry. It’s not a big deal if you don’t post for a couple of months, you’re regular readers won’t abandon you:)

    Hey Nyssa!

    I can’t wait to see your redesign. Where’s the sneak preview button :P

    I wish i could do wordpress themes, but css is slightly beyond me at the momet. Spending time doing a bit of asp.net myself! *goes blind from the lines and lines of code*

    I hope you’re have a great day <3
