First gallery up. Kewl. Knowing SQL and PHP does help tho, especially with soft in development stage.

Picke up new Rammstain album, Reise Reise. Overall, not bad, but previous albums were much, much better. Though there are a few things I liked: Keine Lust, Amerika, Moskau. Still, it's rather a disappointment :(

Ok, looks like Coppermine 1.4 alpha does do all I need. Probably there will be bugz, but whatever, I can fix small stuff and it seems to be working.

Damn. This whole thing is mucho more difficult that I have thought. Too many image gallery packages out there. None of them seem to have what I need, that is all the features in one package. Even if I am willing to pay...

Decided to install serious gallery software on the site. Number of pix approaching 1000 and it'd becoming difficult to manage all that. Besides, I want to put up something with voting support.

And that 200Gb HD you thought was soooo big, it's nothing but a few movies...

3:16am. I've just beaten Doom III on "Veteran" level, and not a single cheat :D. OMG, now what? Anyway, enjoyed the game immensly, although too creepy and dark. Definitely worth buying and playing. Ok, gotta get some sleep. Haven't seen much except demons these days :)

Doom III is here :) And I can't run it on 1600x1200 with AA even on my X800XT. Although even w/o AA graphics are amazing, and sounds are much better done too. Real creeppy game.
