• The latest version of my CDROM is now available from Cafepress. It includes the entire members gallery with the exception of the Pickle Jar images and the multi-monitor screens. The widescreens are included.

  I was able to include the dual and triple screen images last year, but there just wasn’t space on a single CDROM this year. If Cafepress ever decides to offer data DVDs then I can include them again (and probably the Pickle Jar and PNGs as well). Sorry to disappoint you multi-monitor users.

  The price is the same as last year: $24.99 or non-members, $14.99 for members. Last year I had an option to purchase the CD in a paper sleeve, but this year I decided to only offer the jewel case (with full color booklet). Be sure to drop me a line if you have any questions.

• I’ve added dual and triple-screen versions of “November Snow“.

  I’m going to take a little time off now to spend with my family. Speaking of family: we took Ian to a portrait studio last week. I know some of you like to keep up to date on how he’s growing, so here’s one I thought this one was pretty cute. I hope you all have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

• After taking some time to clean up my “back end” code, it is nice to get back to my main job. Programming is fun in its own way, but I really do prefer creating pictures. A lot of you have been asking for a “seasonal” theme so in that vein I offer “November Snow“.

  A widescreen version of “November Snow” is available. The links are now on the new images page. Because I’ve added the widescreen links to the New Images page I will no longer mention that a widescreen version is avaialble for a new image. Widescreen versions will always be posted along with the “regular” version, so I don’t think I need to mention it each time.

  I hope you enjoy the new image! I should have dual and triple screen versions soon.

• I’ve added six re-renders for use on widescreen displays. 1920 x 1200 and 2560 x 1600 versions of “Tropic of Capircorn“, “The Emblem Of“, “White Magic“, “Newborn“, “Singularity“, and “Gotham Garden” are now available. I’ve also added a 2560 x 1600 version of “Tropical Moon of Thetis“. I hope you like them. If there are others you would really like to see as a Widescreen, please drop me a line.
• Yes, I plan on doing at least one Christmas image this year. Can’t say when it will be available though (our tree isn’t even up yet).

• A couple of items to mention today. I’ve finished updating the gallery pages so that now you can access the dual, triple, and widescreen versions if available (the same is true for the new images page). I’ve also written code which will generate the dual and triple screen galleries for me automatically (much like I did for the widescreen gallery). Hopefully this will all mean a cleaner and faster browsing experience for you (and less HTML writing for me).

  I’ve also added dual and triple-screen versions of “Subterra”. I’m sorry there isn’t much going on in the left and right screens, but this image sort of demanded all of the detail be in the center (where the light is).
