Cyphan this past weekend was a blast, and it was also a fun time to premiere the new camera (the pictures from this and the previous page were taken with it). It got to play and experiment and try new things with it – and figure out how the thing works.
You’d think, “Come on, dude. It’s a camera. Point and shoot.” But that’s not right at all.
I was trying to do a lot of manual focusing with the camera, but the problem with that it two fold:
1) I wear glasses
2) I think the image is in focus, but when you look at the 15megapixel glory on the computer screen, you find that it’s not
Auto-focus for me for a while, I think. Until I get the hang of it.
But I digress. Have a great 4th of July, everyone, and I’ll catch you next week for more Temple and @$$hole!

I’m attending Cyphan this weekend out in Wheeling, Il. The show’s at the Westin, and I’ll be speaking on Friday and Sunday. It’s going to be a fun time, so show up and say hello!
So I wanted to somehow make a comic about the new camera that I got. But I didn’t have a working camera to take pictures of myself…holding my new camera. Possibly making love to it. Possibly the TV gets jealous and ticked off. See, there’s like a story arc here I could make.
Just need another camera, and a person to take the pictures.
I tried to get some pictures taken this weekend, and play with the camera a bit. But Waffles makes for poor subject matter, since she moves all the time. However, I’ll be at Cyphan this weekend out in Wheeling, and the new camera will be with me. If you stop by the show, you may get the chance to appear in the comic, if you’d like.
The Carl’s Birthday storyline wraps up today, and so I’ll have to go back to creating brand new content starting next week. I was able to get a few pages done, so hopefully it’s enough of a buffer to last me for a while before the next convention.
Speaking of my next convention, I’ll be a guest of honor at Cyphan out in Wheeling, Il (where my book was printed)! Cyphan is a brand new sci-fi show, and it’s going to have some special guests from some semi-popular sci-fi shows (cough cough Firefly cough cough Battlestar Galactica cough cough).
The guy who’s running the show just linked me to the TV spot that he produced, which will run in Chicago promoting the show during StarGate episodes on SyFy.
Cyphan takes place June 25-27 at the Westin Chicago North Shore Wheeling, IL. Be sure to check out the website and order tickets. I’ll be hosting a panel about making webcomics Friday, and possibly again Sunday.
Hope to see you there.
