BCSD 2010 Shirts for Bakerized.com

Making shirts for Bitter Cold Showdown 2010 for Bakerized.com. They will be sold in the booth at the trade show! Many different color combos available. I might even make some JIVE shirts to sell there too!

Battery powered NES with 7in. LCD

Ripped apart an old portable DVD player, gutted the useless parts, and crammed the rest in an NES.  Powered by a rechargeable battery.  All wiring is soldered internally.  Output jacks still available to output NES to a TV.  Input plug for using the LCD for other things.  Good stuff.

Check out StreetGamer.net! Site is a blog ran by a team of enthusiasts, posting views and information on topics such as:

  • games – reviews, previews, achievements, trophies
  • moveis – box office, retail, reviews, trailers

I created this site using WordPress as a CMS. Also used various php and WordPress tags to create custimizations. Plugins such as: WP-Cummulus, SEO pack, and more were used to enhance features. Graphics done in Photoshop CS4. All together it was a fun site to work on!
