NESpresso: Archives \ June 26, 2005 Entry

Welcome Back to NESpresso! I hope you're keeping cool this summer as I'm trying to heat things up with new content!

You're probably wondering (by the timestamp on this update, even though this was uploaded on Monday) why I'm working on my website late at night this weekend? You can attributed to my exausting work that I've done in my Downloads Section, which I've been working on for like 5 hours straight. If you've ever seen the trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess from E3 (or in the August, 2005 issue of Nintendo Power, which is complimented with Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound), you can see why somebody would spend hours viewing these visuals. I've remade all the wallpapers for the game (all 14 original images) to improve the quality of the images & I've added an extra dozen to have 26 wallpapers in total! I've also took the time to remake the wallpaper viewing system. Instead of viewing all the wallpapers on the page, you can view the wallpapers individually using a selectible list. I've used Javascript (for the jump list) & an i-frame (which was something people frowned on, but the current browsers can view i-frames without any trouble) for the wallpaper viewing area (which makes the viewing area on the page almost unnoticable from the page around it). I will warn you that if you've downloaded the original versions of the wallpapers, you won't really notice a difference from the newer (or enhanced) versions of the wallpapers. One difference that I CAN SEE is that the newer versions are around 10% smaller from the originals (on a side-by-side size comparison).

In other news, I might be picking up some Press Credentials through Twin Galaxies to access the Nintendo Press area. Even though that the majority of my presswork would be done for Twin Galaxies (as a way to pull new people to the site), if I can get credentials with Nintendo... I & my fellow refs would be able to get credentials for E3 & other events that the press can get into. I know that I'm thinking big here, but if I can get past this hurdle & take this first step... I'll be able to make large steps in the future!

That's all I have for this weekend-ish edition of the Daily Drip... I probably write something up in my blogger (or start setting up my Tripod space in order to expand my website... & possibly mirror parts of my site for transition parts), but don't hold me to it. I'll most likely be blowing my time on Runescape... my latest long-term addiction. I'll C'ya Latte!
