On Roundbottom
Filed Under: Graphic Design, Photography, Photoshop
What is the resolution of your desktop? 800×600? 1024×768? 1280×1024? 1920×1200? 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.
New Roundbottom: To Bind a Steam Wraith

Another Monday, and another Roundbottom post has gone live over at clockpunk.com. This week, the good Doctor formulates a plan to recapture the dangerous wraith.
We’re hard at work around here on more Roundbottom content. The first podcast might very well be ready in the next week or two. My sound engineer Nate sent me a couple of files over the weekend that were great. The podcast is going to have fantastic engineering. Episodes will be short, running only 2-3 minutes most likely. But those 2-3 minutes will be packed with aural delights, I tell you.
Dr. Roundbottom needs your help to find his audience. Please consider linking to the site if you haven’t done so already.
New Roundbottom: Interview with a Steam Rat

Today, there’s a new Roundbottom image and story live over at clockpunk.com. This piece reveals a lot more about the world that Roundbottom lives in and some of the other people that populate it.
Also, um… if you wouldn’t mind, and if you like the site, could you link it on your blog perhaps to let others know that it’s active and being updated again? I would very much appreciate any eyeballs you can send my way.

A testament to the new camera’s quality. If I had taken this picture with it, none of the detail would have come out. I am very pleased. I just wish I hadn’t gotten him sitting on a power line.
