New Year’s Resolution: requests

Having recently agreed to do a commentary for Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, it occurred to me to go back and look at other requests I’ve had and see how I’ve done at fulfilling them. And it turns out… not so good. I’ve had some good feedback and many more requests than I’d realized, but I’ve [...]

Numbers 2: most popular Tysto commentaries

In June 2010, I started using the PodPress WordPress plugin to make my commentaries available on iTunes and to track the download numbers. I reported on the results at the beginning of this year, but I thought I’d do it again now.

“I [heart] Precision” T-shirt

I created a new T-shirt design today. It’s in the Tysto shop. Check it out. It’s the phrase “I [heart] Precision” with a precise depiction of a human heart instead of a wildly inaccurate symbolic representation of one. You can get the T-shirt in several colors with the white-on-color design. I put it on a [...]

Numbers: most popular Tysto commentaries

In early June 2010, I started using the PodPress WordPress plugin to make my commentaries available on iTunes. A side benefit is that it tracks the downloads and displays the information simply and in versatile ways. I wish I’d been using it all along, because it’s been great to see the number of listeners I [...]

A Ripper’s Christmas Carol

Inspired by Time After Time and also by the hilarious idea of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, I made this. It’s a reworking of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol with Jack the Ripper added in. It’s a horror story for Christmas. Enjoy!

Tysto: now on iTunes

I’ve gotten Tysto listed on iTunes now. To facilitate that, I added a special plugin, so the look of the individual commentary pages has changed. I still haven’t changed the Firefly page over to the new style, but now all the other commentaries have posters, streaming players, and links on iTunes.

Sweet.

I don’t have a button to link to iTunes, but I’ll do that soon.

Messed up—fixed!(?)

Something is still wrong with this site. The front page is now not displaying correctly, as if some code in one of the posts is invalid. Unpublishing that post allows a couple of others to appear, but then some other post gets cut off. The right sidebar never appears. EDIT: I’ve changed the site to [...]

You can order pictures by clicking the “Order Print” link next to the picture in the single image view or under each picture in the gallery [...]
