My PC had finally decided it wanted to do random shut offs a few months back and had to replace parts. I've been kinda on/off enough that I fully got out of sync with anything art and just got myself absorbed in life.
Not expecting to release anything more this year. I've yet to stumble on to too much art here lurking the few times I've returned.
Thanks anyone who finds anything to add, and anyone I missed to reply back that they were welcome for add/watch/comments.

Might be on my way back...
I haven't been on my account in a long time. Not sure I plan to do anything new. Been busy with life / work. Time will tell if I come back or start something new even. I bought a WACOM pen tablet, my tower is fair enough, and I'm looking into potentially getting UltraFractal, so I could expand out more. Just not sure what I wanna do yet. I'm likely to create an entire alt account if I do. Getting really bored anymore and tired of not having artistic outlets. Harshin'.
We'll see how things go.
I need glass...
So yeah, I've kinda gone and dropped away once again.
Friends coming back from college and stuffs (Oblivion; Life) has as usually made me forget about the projects I had in mind.
I have been looking for a transparent glass texture for my rainmeter project.
I learned that the Windows 7 taskbar may be actually using Active X to create an active refraction of the image behind it.
I discovered this after stumbling across a how-to about making your own glass textures using refraction, and noticing changes in the taskbar as I switched between backgrounds over the past few years of having 7.
So yeah, I'll be likely to cycle back into rainmeter
New year, new activity...
It seems I'll be getting back into Rainmeter this year. =D
I also think I figured out why my first super huge project failed... I tried to integrate too many configs into one huge config, and it caused a bunch of errors.
If any coders ever read this, Rainmeter needs a program to check syntax of Raincodes in INI files and report back what issues are going on (sort of like HTML/JAVA code syntax/error check programs).
Not sure if that's way extreme a request, but yeah, it is something it could certainly use. =(
Anyway, I've been working on a new skin suit project just starting out as of last week: http://chaosapostle.deviantart.com/art/GandC
A View on Customization
I figured I'd talk about this, granted I've been focusing more time on my own desktop recently.
I've been watching the rainmeter deviations for a while now, and I notice a few things.
Mainly that many of the works posted are either individual works, or an entire suite of works.
Yet, also that there is a general abundance of rainmeter skins taking up the majority of the end-user's visual desktop space.
I've notice that this has spurred the use of three countermeasures:
1) Horizontal taskbars that condense several meters into it, either built into a single vertical meter or you have to pick and place the meters over the bar
2) Launchbars
