So i have started on my project properly now. Working on some interface stuff. I am gonna be using the Wiimote to control some 3D models hopefully. Its all being developed on a Mac so I gotta get up off my ass and start learning Cocoa and Objective-C. They really dont look too bad and XCode is doing a pretty bang up job of handling the whole development side so no real complaints outta me … yet, trust me they will be a coming. These control structures arent too bad but everything i have been looking at has criminaly poor commenting. I think it might just take a little longer to learn all the syntax and figure out just how i will get this whole thing done. Still at least i have started and i am familiarising myself with the task, i set a goal of having something running 2 weeks from now and we will see how that goal is holding up this Friday/Saturday.
In a completly seperate topic of which nobody will be interested in Mr Foott finally got himself a car to be truly proud of and may i say it is fair pretty. I took a few picks with my Phone, tried to put its camera to the test and its didnt do too bad. The pictures are after the break and the few i had a bit of a play with using the simple filters in photoshop are in my flicker photostream or just use the photos link above and wander on to the “Stuff” folder. Use whichever and hopefully pass some of your day. The original photos are in a gallery after the break.

I hope I’m not late. I am after getting well confused and even if I’m not late time is running out sharpish. The Mozilla Foundation is going for the most Downloads in 24 hours and its nearing the end. I just had a quick look at the home page and Ireland is at just over 20,000. Lets see if we can bring that up a bit. So go to the Headquarters and do your bit for a great browser. While you are there you can also pick up a certificate to say you got involved and hang it prominently on the wall of you choice. Now stop reading and GO GO GO.
UPDATE: You have 1 hour left
UPDATE: Times up and the result is being checked. The above link should still work so Have a look. I’ll post again when i hear anything
