Now Is The Time To Begin The Work
Posted by: Sean | Posted on: July 10th, 2009 | 0 Comments
As you can see in the picture above I have put my music video / entertainment site into a maintenance state. Now if anyone decides to pop over to www.entertainmentclam.com they will just be simply greeted by this little splash screen.
I have wanted to get around to upgrading that site for a long time and now that I have moved it from my old server to my new one I think that it would be an appropriate time to temporarily shut it down so that I can start to get a move on with the re-construction of the site. I want to first off upgrade the version of the software that was on the site. The version I was using was not the latest so I am taking this opportunity get around to sorting that out.
I also want to make a nice looking site that nobody else has, I know that this is a really huge task for me to undertake, but I want to put myself under some pressure, I want more pressure to learn more about web design, I have been lacking in web development over the past few weeks.
So now in my spare time, or basically whenever I am not at work, I will be devoting my time to the 'EntertainmentClam' website, I might decide to post a few status updates to this blog to let everyone know what I am getting up to. Also I will definitely be using its twitter account a lot over the next while and may be looking for some help on certain problems I might run into. So if you are on twitter, pop on over and follow the entertainmentclam! @entertainmentc .
The code that is running on the 'EntertainmentClam' is the most complex code that I have ever worked with, it usually takes me 10 times longer to get something done, I want to be able to get work on it faster so I am going to try and study how the main features work so I can navigate through the code at a fairly quick pace.
Another thing I want to get done is to try and make a nice new logo for the site, the one that was on it looked ok, but is just not what I am looking for, so that will be another challenge for me as I am not too good with graphic design!
X-Men Origins: Wolverine – Leaked Online
Posted by: Sean | Posted on: April 12th, 2009 | 0 Comments
Here is a topic that i had meant to talk about a long time ago. The new X-Men film titled "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" was leaked by someone to the online community before the final production cuts had been applied, the studio said: "It was without many effects, had missing and unedited scenes and temporary sound and music,".
The studio is worried that by people downloading this illegal version of the film that since it is uncomplete that they might not enjoy it fully, and therefore they might recommend to there friends not to go see it, this could have a major impact on the box office profits.
The FBI are investigating the case to find out who exactly stole and leaked the advanced copy of the film, they have many different techniques on how they will attempt to track down the person who released it, one way is by reading the Digital Watermark, the studio said that they mark each bit of there conent that they give out so that they can track it down to the source if such a case happens like this one.
In my opinion if you watch the advanced copy it will just ruin the fun of seeing the final version when it is released on May 1st, its not that long too wait and even if you did watch the illegal copy you should go see the film when it is released even just to see how much you missed out on.
I am really looking foward to seeing this film when it finally comes out and even though it is available to download at torrent sites i will just wait to see the final polished version, seeing this early version is just like if you were reading a book, if you skip to the end when you just begin it you will most likely not bother reading the rest of it, instead just be patient and read the full book and eventually you will see the full picture and enjoy it even more.
Here is a trailer for the "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" film, due out may 1st 2009:
