You may have noticed the subtle changes here at Phaysis.
Actually, that is a lie. There have been NO changes here at Phaysis! I mentioned, in the last news article, I was working on a new design for the site. Well, I was indeed telling the truth, but that effort, like all things, suffered and died under the weight of expectations and the inspired (and uninspiring) lifestyle of this author. Sorry.
I’ve been playing with stuff off and on, but haven’t produced any real results. I get humming along on something kinda cool, then run into a snag on the project, so I lose initiative and do nothing for days. Sorry. That’s the way I work. So, uh, just keep checking back. Maybe I’ll surprise myself and do something real.

Been a while since the last Phaysis site news update. Nothing out of the ordinary with that. Dropping in to mention that I’m considering a site redesign; this design is novel, it’s fun, I like it, others like it, but it’s getting old on me. It’s the shellacked, plasticene sheen on my otherwise foul temperament as of late. It’s a seasonal thing, I hope.
In one of my side projects I’m playing around with a lot of DOM-level html scripting. Cool stuff. Building tables on the fly from javascript data. Capturing mouse events on each table row. Client-side manipulation of the document interface. That kind of stuff. Super cool. Also, same project, using new perl modules to automatically handle class-to-database relationships; a true lifesaver. All that stuff is ongoing. Everything is ongoing.
Ok. So, yeah, site stuff soon. You heard it here first.

Hey there, everyone. As you can readily tell, your favorite site and mine, phaysis.com, has undergone a major redesign. This is the first time I’ve decided on using a white background in my designs. I had gotten the idea a few days before the redesign, and after grabbing updated drivers for my graphics tablet, I spent a few evenings drawing all the graphics for the site by hand and putting them into the design. I hope you approve.
So, otherwise, still the same ol’ nothing going on in the background at Phaysis. Things aren’t moving, really, and the motivation’s still not enough to get anything written, but as always it’s still in the back of my mind. Maybe soon I get some forward momentum, eh?
Ok. Follow the menu, look at stuff, send me a message, etcetera, etcetera.
Love

Welcome to my site. Seems these days my site is more like an online storage space than a usable website. Not doing so many things for the site. Things around here are at a standstill, more or less.
Well, that’s a half-truth. I still peck at code every now and then, trying to build something usable for my site as a content management system. There are tons of those systems online already, but I want to roll my own. There’s pride in doing that.
So, yeah. Look at stuff. Enjoy the site. I’m considering a redesign some time soon. Meh.

Hey kids. Total site redesign. All of the main, publicly-accessible pages have been updated and recoded to unify the look and feel of the site. Still not much content here, but that’s how we work. We. Heh. It’s just me, and I still speak in the Royal First Person form.
Anyways, enjoy the new design. It’s mostly monochrome now, grey tones with a touch of “titty-pink” for emphasis. Hope you like. The change goes all the way from the main page to the journal pages, the povray page, and down to the message gateway.
The development on Chrontium has kind of ground to a halt. Shame on me for not developing it fast enough; I sort of lost interest in the project, but I do want to finish due to the positive and demanding responses I’ve been getting from my play testers. Stay tuned, and please ride on me to finish. Thanks.
Enjoy the site. That is all, good night.
