Beta Conversion

Beta Conversion is practically complete. Now I've got to finish that movie I was working on...you know...that movie I was working on?

Notice my progress on the progress bar? It shows the progress of movies I'm currently working on. Also added Blog Rolling...it slightly slows the site down but it's good to have....in the future if I don't like it I'll toss it.

I've got all my favorite posts/movies into the tag/label dropdown. I didn't include all those short animated gifs because I wasn't too proud of them. And the "Untitled" posts were also not included.....I may change my mind on that.

Oh..the link order is fixed. If I missed anyone or if you feel you're out of place..lemme know!

What's with this bloody beta crap??? Why the heck should I jump through another hoop??? What's in it for me???

Why? When your blogs go down...mine won't. I have instant publishing! You have to wait like 10 minutes sometimes.

And finally...LABELS! Labels are fun, man. Now people can see the titles of my previous movies without having to search through archives.

Also, I can read your link list with Firefox, now!

Firefox Smirefox...


No seriously...watch out for Smirefox...Microsoft will have revenge.

Progress: an illusion. Blogger crashes: unfortunate for all. Progenitor syntax: most fun to use: all occasions.

I've always wondered how a person can gauge their status on a movie. Do you set up storyboards first, and then estimate based on how long it takes you to get through a set number of frames?

Bathroom Hippo said...



I create a story and estimate how much of the story has been achieved. However, some parts of the story may be more difficult to animate than others...That's when I give or take some percentage points based upon something humans call guesstimation.

Hippo, Firefox now has in-line spell check along with the tabbed browsing and handy add-ons and themes.
Firefox will win you over, water monster.

What is the number 1 which appears next to all your movies?

I haven't done Beta conversion because I have almost 400 posts and a highly customized template. *sigh* I want a migration strategy from those bastards.

WHERE TEH FUCK IS YOUR MOVIE?!?

Bathroom Hippo said...


The (1) just means only one in that category.

Don't worry...working on that movie full time now. Just finished 2 big tests.

Ticharu said...

So what's with having to start a new blog??? How is it my link for your blog still works??? Did you NOT have to start a new blog???

Bathroom Hippo said...


I'm not sure I understand...

I had to tear down a lot of things but I got blog-rolling and added your link back. Technically this is the same blog but under XML and less HTML. It's faster, and stuff.

Bathroom Hippo said...


I guess I was lucky. J_G's blog totally messed up when she converted to beta. I still had all my archives..and just labeled the movies/posts I liked.

Now that I think about it...yes the links got deleted after I converted...so I got a javascript blog-roller account and just added them back. Not sure if I answered your question. I just like to hear my self type.

What's all this talk of conversion? Nothings changed over here. This is just a ruse so that we forgive you for not finishing your film. Clever, clever Hippo.

Word Veri: ydfutk, Now that's just not polite, I am not 'fucked'!

How did you know?!

Somebody is leaking my secrets.
Probably the word verification...yesterday it told someone my real name.

progress bar? you're such a nerd..not that that's a bad thing...or anything :)

Yesterday, I found a stuffed purple Hippo that cost $2. I haven't decided what I'm going to do to it yet... something with explosives?! :)

Bathroom Hippo said...


You bastard!
