I'm not dead, I've just been rather distracted with things like *cough cough* Planet Side and exploding PC's and other things exploding. Why do they have to explode? I'm tired of picking shrapnel out of things. *Sigh* Anywho... I've been playing around with pixel based art a little bit, with the intent to make a cheap little game someday... someday. That all aside, I'm sure that I'm on the right track... and I've realized that my laptop has the most irritating color config every, the contrast is horrible, and I need to fix it up. *Sigh* if only the monitor had easy to use buttons...

*Edit* I know that it's too small to be seen really well if one were actually using this as a game, and it would only likely account for a small piece of what the player would see. Mostly it means that I was a bit too lazy to work on something larger and I'll have to address it. This is only a cheap concept really.
