Hey guys. I’ve finally switched SF over to a new server and have a new layout up. I think this new set up is a lot cleaner and is easier to navigate than it use to be. Hopefully you guys think the same! I’ve been very busy with life lately, but I’ll get to that in a paragraph or two.

Anyway, I’ve cleaned out my content, so now there are only textures (both large and icon-sized), brushes and actions left. I found the other content quite pointless, so I got rid of it. If you have any other things you want to see up then please let me know! I want to get more content up in the next few weeks.

Now on to why I haven’t been around much lately. My dad has been battling cancer for four years, and I’m really proud of him. He’s been so tough through everything, but sadly he passed away on Saturday morning. It started about a week ago where his breathing started to get really bad. He was extremely week and needed to take a break and sit down after coming up and down a flight of stairs. Mom wanted to take him into the hospital last Wednesday, but he was too tired to go. On Thursday she called an ambulance for him and our family friends came over to help. My dad’s friend, Joe, tried to keep him conscious by asking him the year, how he was, what the day was, etc. and started to check his pulse and stuff. (Thankfully he was a surgeon assistant, so he knows all of that good stuff.) By the time Dad had gotten to the hospital he had slipped into a coma. My boyfriend and I went to visit him on Friday. By then he had been asleep for around 23 hours, I think. The doctors were preparing us for the inevitable from the moment they got him in, since the coma had come on so quickly. Before we left I said goodbye to him and told him that it was OK if he wanted to let go. I’d rather he not be in pain anymore. I’m so grateful that I got to see him before then, though.

Mom and I are trying our hardest to just keep going. We have a bunch of family coming here this week, so we’re busy cleaning our house and preparing for the funeral. It still seems pretty unreal that my father is gone, and I can’t even set foot upstairs because that was “his room” for these years, but I think I’ll be able to move on in time. For now, though, I’m trying to occupy myself with SF, video games and school work.

Anyway, it feels really good to be back. I really enjoy working with SF and other web design stuff, so I plan on continuing for as long as possible! If you have any content ideas please let me know. I know a few people wanted some new brushes, so I’ll probably work on those in the next week or two.

Also, my affiliates list was cleaned out a lot. If you’re not there anymore and would like to be just apply again! Plus, the transfer kind of messed up a few things, so some people may not be added yet that should be.

I’d also like to get some new hostees. My hosting page has been re-done and now it’s super easy to apply and get everything you need from your package. Right now only the free ones are available, but I plan on getting a PayPal option up soon for those who are interested.
