On Roundbottom

What is the res­o­lu­tion of your desk­top?  800x600? 1024x768? 1280x1024? 1920x1200?  Or some­thing else?  I am try­ing to deter­mine in which res­o­lu­tions to make Dr. Roundbottom desk­top images available.

I just fin­ished a new image for an upcom­ing piece which I believe turned out quite well.  Back to some macro work on that.

I still need to write Monday’s post.  I know what hap­pens. I just haven’t writ­ten it out yet in Roundbottom’s style.  And we’re hop­ing to have the first pod­cast up as next week’s upload.  I am super pleased with the work Nate, my sound guy, has done on it so far.  I have a script and we will be lay­ing down voice tracks soon.  Yes indeed, you will soon get to hear what Roundbottom and Miss Watkins sound like!

On a less happy note, the read­er­ship num­bers for Roundbottom have been pretty ter­ri­ble. I put a tremen­dous, mas­sive amount of effort into the site and fewer than 100 peo­ple are check­ing it out. I’ll prob­a­bly keep doing it so long as I find it inter­est­ing, but I have no illu­sions about much of any­one lik­ing the project.  Those of you who do read it, I thank you.

  1. My res­o­lu­tion is 1024×768.

    To increase round­bot­tom read­er­ship, I sug­gest link­ing to that site when­ever you men­tion it. For exam­ple, I have only been spo­rad­i­cally read­ing this blog of yours, and, thus, don’t know where to find roundbottom.

    Also: do you have a live­jour­nal feed for it? That’s pretty much where I read my blogs (or see teasers and visit them).

  2. well, you’re wel­come to plug it on western_steam (also on LJ), since you’re local. per­son­ally, i’m think­ing that the greater anachrotech com­mu­nity doesn’t quite under­stand the pur­pose of the site, which may be part of the problem.

    what do you need mod­els for?

  3. Models for var­i­ous char­ac­ters, like the steam rat. I try to do a mix of cos­tumed peo­ple and the nat­u­ral­ist stuff.

    I’ll have to look into how I can make the pur­pose more clear.
