So, Recently, one of my friend's had her unofficial fan club that is run by some friends of hers be turned into an official fan club on http://www.deviantArt.com. You can check out the club here. To get into the spirit of things, I went ahead and dusted off my copy of gimp and created the following three userbars to help show others/my Fandom of Sokai and her stories :) 
So, This could possibly lead to more art on my end. The lord knows I have the time for it :D You can check out my profile on DeviantArt here. |

One of my more recent projects deals with the creation of an IRC Bot. I recently have been using IRC more as of late hanging out on the End of Evolution IRC network (irc.eoegameservers.com). The client I have been using to connect to irc is mIRC. My interest in creating a bot piqued several weeks back after successfully creating an script for use within mIRC that provided a variety of fun commands for use. Well I have finally embarked upon this project and came upon the problem of how I was going to write this bot. Well Google provided the answer with a java framework by the name of PircBot. PircBot provides an abstract class that allows java programmers to write bots that can connect to an IRC Network and respond to various events such as messages sent to channels, actions, or even DCC File requests. PircBot even provides the framework for a bot that can talk back using the JMegaHal package. Kudos to Paul at Jibble.org for writing this bot. So I have started this project under the name of Teldra (Don't ask me why, 'cause it randomly came to me in the shower). Currently Teldra will provide the ability to talk back to users who talk to her, Store quotes, tell the time, pass along messages, host reminders, repeat programmed factoids, and probably play games. Teldra will also have a GUI so you can control what server she is connected to (Possible Multi-server use), what channels she connects to, if she should learn from certain channels, Change the name of the bot connected to a server, etc. etc. etc... Eventually a Java Projects section will be coming to Silicate Illusion to show case my various java projects. |

Silicate Illusion plays host to a number of subsites. Most of these are hosted for End of Evolution since their current webhost does not meet the requirements for web applications like Sourcebans or HLStatsX CE. Some of the other subsites that are hosted include an SVN Repository, Bookmarks WebDAV, Images, and soon to be bugzilla repository. Most of these are hosted simply for my personal conveiniance, but also for the ever expanding infastructer of Silicate Illusion. |

The lone server that serves as not only online hosting provider for Silicate Illusion website but the internal network needs of the Silicate Illusion lan was recently moved from a Wi-Fi connection to a wired connection. The server was on a wifi connection mostly for the reason that it was not within the current budget to run a wire from the switch to the server box. That all changed when a friend recommended MonoPrice.com for all my ethernet needs. MonoPrice.com has many various products, but most notably is their ethernet cables. Similar cables found on other Big Name Retailer websites can be found on MonoPrice.com for 3 to 4 times cheaper. This has enabled me to convert nice chunks of the Silicate Illusion internal network into wired connections. All my future projects that require wiring with ethernet cables will have MonoPrice.com as my choice provider of cables. |
