Domain Transfer

I am currently trying to transfer my domains from my old host (www.illusionfxnet.com) to godaddy.com. My old host was really good when I signed up - but it´s now a joke. There is no support at all. I cant transfer my domain because there is no one there to answer my request for the authorization code.

So I think godaddy can force something to happen on my behalf - but it might get a little confusing for a while - so the website might appear to go down.

So stay tuned - and when it works, you´ll definatly notice the difference.

New Headlights

My trusty old Subaru has been going well lately - but it´s headlights have always left a lot to be desired. They havent been bright enough - and lately a stone smashed one of the light covers.

I´d already tried putting bigger globes in them, but it kept melting the wiring.

So Dad and I decided to replace the lights themselves - and ordered some new ones through ebay.

So on the weekend Dad and I wired up the new headlights. Personally I think it looks better. And its definatly brighter.

Turns out one of my headlights were wired up backwards anyway. Instead of a single ground and two power cables (high and low) my car has one power and two ground wires. Took a while to work out - but we finally got the new lights going.

The above pic was the old lights - and this is the new. What do you think?

Jordan has Arrived

Please give a warm welcome to my new external hard drive - Jordan!

Jordan (the red one) joins Boris (blue) and Zoltan (black) as my external harddrive army. Jordan is 400G, Zoltan is 320G, and Boris is a tiny 200G.

I have now discovered that I dont have enough USB ports on my computer. I have 3 harddrives, 1 monitor extension (allows me to plug stuff into my screen), a printer, a mouse, etc. I need some sort of USB hub or expansion card or something.

I got the harddrive at http://www.itestate.com.au which has good prices - but took them ages to post the order. I´d probably deal with them again though - great prices.

There´s something extremely nice about having a empty 400G harddrive. Even though it took about 2 hours to format.

Website Update

I´ve just receieved a letter from my current web host saying I am about to be charged again. I didnt realise it was so close.

So as soon as I can, I´m going to swap the domains accross to my new website. It´s not finished yet - so I´ll block off all the unfinished parts. But the blog works - and that´s the main part anyway.

If www.jawapro.com goes down unexpectadly - try www.headlessmoron.com - as that will also be pointing to my new site.

The picture is of the new layout - so that it wont come as a total shock when it changes.

And in other news - I might be able to have my internet cut off, because my bank screwed up with my credit card details, and told me to cancel it, so I´m now waiting for my new one. And in the mean time Internode (my ISP) emailed me saying they couldnt debit my card - and if I dont get it fixed, I´m probably going to be cut off.

That´ll put the skids on the whole website relocation project too. If I cant access the net - I cant do much at all.

Well, there´s a little update for you all.

Cheers,

Transformers Movie

Well - that was a pleasant suprise. A movie that actually exceeds expectations. I've been a light hearted Transformers fan for a long time. And I thought that this movie would suck big time. But being a Transformers fan, I had to check it out. So I rallied my troops (friends) and headed off to Cmax to check it out.

And suprisingly, it was pretty good. Very different to the old cartoon - but very cool.

In fact, the only thing I really didnt like was the change to the characters faces. The Autobots werent too bad (Prime looked best when in 'battle mode' when his face plate appears).

But Megatron and Starscream especially looked wrong.

Here's Megatron from the movie:

And here's a close-up of his face.

And here's a shot of what he's supposed to look like.

Which you can see is a lot different.

But apart from that - the movie was pretty awesome.

And just to prove that I'm a Transformer's Fan - here's a picture of my most recent addition. The original Megatron - Revoltech edition. It cant transform - but it is extremely flexible and poseable.

Talk to you later.
