I would like to go on record that photo galleries are evil.  I just spent two days mucking around with a Gallery2 installe for the Schoodic Lake Association.  It just would NOT work for me.  Kept glitching on creating thumbnails.  So I initiated a scorched-earth policy and burned it to the ground.  I then went back to my old faithful, Coppermine Photo Gallery.  I’ve used it on TRC for many years now.  I downloaded the new version, and i gotta say its pretty shiny.  Its working great, never had an issue.  Now I just need to backup the TRC gallery and update it….  I need a faster internet connection than my phone for this.

The WayFar Enterprises website is finished!  WayFar is the current incarnation of my attempt at making some money.  (Previously Sethen Technologies, WayFar Technologies, Sethen Computer Services, etc, so on and so forth)

This new and improved business is a joint venture among me and several friends / associates.  We’ve also greatly expanded the areas we have expertise in.  Instead of just computer repair and web design from before, now we have also have graphic design, desktop publishing, media conversion, video production, and more.  And coming soon, we’ll be offering some new packages for home security and surveilance!!

Check out the website if you’d like to know more.

Finally got the logo for WayFar. Got a list a mile long of all I need to get done.  Its gonna be a busy day, but hopefully ill have a finished website.

Its finished! Took some pictures out at the lake today to put the finishing touches on the site. If all goes well, we should get the lake depth monitoring system up and online soon too!

Thats the prototype I’m working with… Nothing final yet, not even close.  Still very open to ideas on pretty much anything.  Let me know what you think….

Can’t seem to wrap my mind around designing this website… I have a vision in my mind, just can’t seem to get it into the computer   trying to relax and focus more……

Eric and I are going into a new business partnership.  We’re calling it “WayFar Enterprises”, and we’re going to have several specialized sub-companies.  So far, we’ve got WayFar Tech, Design, Security, Video, & Photography.

Sethen Technologies is getting split up into WayFar Tech and WayFar Design.  We’ll also be expanding the many different things we do, and getting our hands into some new stuff.

I’ll be posting more here over the next few weeks as Eric and I get the details straightened out.  Our new website will be up soon at www.wayfar.me.

Got the computer all squared away. Wasn’t that bad afterall

Looks like I need to order a new firewire card and some cables. Found them pretty cheap though!!

Ridiculous.  That is today’s word.

Working on several computer projects, and ready to start pulling out my hair.  Trying to upgrade an old iMac to MacOS X 10.3, but ran into five gajillion stumbling blocks.  Can’t install 10.3 untill you upgrade to the latest firmware.  Can’t upgrade the firmware unless you are running MacOS 9.1  Its running 9.0.4.  So first, I had to go on an epic quest to find my 9.1 disc, as I haven’t had a need for it in oh what now, 6 years?  So I just upgraded to 9.1, attempting the firmware update now.  Wish me luck on the 10.3 install.

Second project, I need to convert a ton of Hi-8 video cassettes to DVDs.  I can do this fine, I have all the equipment.  Only one slight problem.  Craig seems to have run off with all the damn parts I need….  Kinda hard to hookup a camera to firewire when A. your firewire cable is missing, and B. your firewire CARD is apparently with the missing cable.
