This is me...at work.



We've always be taught that Work = Money.

I absolutely can not concentrate because I've been working here without pay for a month. Well, not a month, they gave us 2 weeks off since the company didn't have enough in the budget. They called us back claiming we'd have a paycheck at the end of the week. Now, it's Friday. Payday. But no pay. They said it's coming next week....but they said that before. I'm not sure I believe this. This company has a reputation...

Somehow everyone else has continued to work like normal. If I truly believed we would get paid next week I might be able to focus. I'm not sure. How am I putting up with this? Why is no one else panicked?

My new animation reel



I'm very proud that most of the clips are in HD. The ones that aren't are standard size blown up to HD and look ok. The last time I completely overhauled my reel was in 2008. Unfortunately, then my reel dimensions were half the size of a television screen. That was because most of the clips were saved for the internet when I still had dial-up and the original versions were too big for a CD.

My new computer has a terabyte of space. That blows my mind.

So, I've taken out all the small sized clips and replaced them with new animations. Someday, I'd like to get an HD version of Ark City before my negative deteriorates if it hasn't already.

New Art Blog. No new art yet.

I have a new Tumblr account to replace my Art Blog (which is not this blog :). http://christibertelsen.tumblr.com/

I don't
know how many others have had issues with Blogger since Google bought it years ago. I have two Blogger accounts under two different email addresses. To post on my Art Blog I must sign out of this account and into the one with gmail. It's complicated when I want to stay signed into my gmail during work hours, but still want to post on this blog.

Why don't I merge my accounts? I don't want my Nofoodforyou blog to be searched, but do want my Art blog searchable. The problem is, everything on my Art Blog account is now searchable.

A few non-published images from my Art blog showed up after Googling my name. These were images that were either unfinished work, or photos that I wanted to show my friends who refused to sign onto AIM so I can file transfer pictures to them. It's just easier to send a link. Either way, these were images that should not have been public, since I had never published them.

It turned out that my new Google+ account had a folder which held all my passed blog uploads. I delete folder not knowing that it would corrupt almost every link on my Art Blog. Then the blog was full of blank boxes. Out of frustration I canceled my Google+ account. I was very annoyed and didn't feel I should bother finding the images to re-link. So my Blogger Art Blog is a mess. Now, I decided to start a Tumblr account for my "Professional" blog and still use Nofoodforyou to bitch and moan about 1st world problems such as this...
