Art Therapy - Headache Spatter
A piece of "brush-work" driven by a nasty headache. I felt much better afterward.
Now I can maybe work on a second "Holiday" Wallpaper... maybe...
No More Best in Canada!
Wait, what? If you're confused, it's all going to become clear in a second. Rogers Communication has won an injunction against Bell (BCE) to force their rivals to stop mentionning "Most reliable".
I am absolutely outraged by this. Not that I like Bell, their customer service is horrible. I don't like Rogers Mobile either, their pricing plans are uselessly high. It bothers me from a marketing/advertising point. This ruling essentially means that from an advertising stand point you can no longer claim to be the best at something.

Penguin Stare - Wallpaper
My latest piece, a wallpaper. It's honestly my first 'real' wallpaper piece — Penguin Stare. I got inspired by a label while wrapping gifts. I loved the asymmetrical-shapes style and made my own character out of it.
It's available in a variety of fullscreen, widescreen sizes... including one in HD. Check out the DeviantArt Page to download it.

Change of Email
I did something I wanted to do for a little while: change email address and provider (MS is not focusing enough on the mail element, resulting in an incredibly sloppy mail service at times, and it's pissing me off, but that's for another discussion...)
It was a hard decision because I was attached to zsyrinx. But when I had people having a hard time understanding when I was verbally giving them my email, I knew that it was maybe time for me to change.
The new email is a bit more "mature" and professional, and it's much easier to undersand. Of course I'm not going to write it out on this post, but if you know where to look, you'll find it.
There's a lot of work involved in changing emails after almost 10 years. It's not doing the change that's hard and tedious, it's everything else (changing every subscriptions, logins, etc...). I swear I have work for the next 6 months just with these changes!
