Updates and changes

I'm a huge fan of having domains for my businesses. They're cheap, I have webspace anyway, and people can remember them much easier.

I had been using my domain to redirect to my blog, which contains my contact information, but I ran into a couple of snags. One, people keep going to the domain of one business actually wanting the other. Two, the information was quietly to the side so I think it gets missed a lot. Three, most people visiting my site don't care about the blog, they just want to email me or look at my gallery.

So, I've relaunched my main page at NostalgicNerdom.com! It's kind of boring, and when I get the store open I'll probably put a mini cart on the side. BUT, it does what needs to be done. I included a contact form so I don't lose people there.

I put up an almost identical page at ChainedtotheStrange.com, so hopefully I won't lose people who go to that site looking for NN =D

I finished finals yesterday, and plan on spending this vacation working on the business. So, lots of updates planned! Next is some behind the scenes work making my spreadsheets more manageable, as well as tidying the business folder. Later I will be taking advantage of my Dad's power tools to cut my circuit boards into smaller sizes that I can work with easier. Might even be able to get fancy! I have some space invaders to paint and drill (more on them in a later update!), and of course beading to do. My tiny beads finally came in (never buy from hamabeadsonline, seriously), so expect some itty bitty goodness!

Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see done!

So much new!

Sorry for the lack of updates those who follow! Tis that wonderful time of year for those of us who keep doing classes through the summer, exams! I keep Facebook relatively updated, so if you aren't already, follow me there! I also post most of my stuff on flickr if you aren't on facebook.

You may have noticed I'm not selling online yet. Quite simply, I can't keep up with local demand yet, let alone selling online! I'll be bringing in one of my friends as slave labour in the fall, and will be making a large order of beads to have my supply stock full. 10k of black, I think so! Honestly, sprites use so much black LOL. If there's anything you see on the blog, facebook, or flickr that you'd like let me know and I can do a custom order!

I leave you with my favorite creation. I really hope someone buys the whole set, it really is too awesome

It's a secret to everybody that the cake is a lie

Busy busy! Between school, work, and making these items I've been neglecting my blog!

Generally I won't post simple direct sprite magnets (become a fan on Facebook or check out my Flickr Stream for all my pics), but these two made me giggle.



I really think there needs to be a keychain version of that yoshi, I know *I* had fun running around the apartment having him eat things!

To the unknowing outsider, this is a simple sprite in a frame. To the real gamer this will be a point of beautiful frustration! Chase your significant other around going "Hey! Listen!" until they crack! Or... just leave is on display as a silent testament to the fairy known as Navi. (I prefer chasing people with it but that's just me)


It's so delicious and moist! And Plastic!


I really need to find a better set up for my large items, I could not get a good picture of this guy! For some reason the camera make it look warped, but it is perfectly square!

21" by 20", this is a scale rendition of this famous Legend of Zelda scene. 0.5cm = 1 pixel! Comes with two picture hooks securely attached to the back so you can hang it with ease.


Up next... I am Error!

This is my own creation, everyone's favorite chemical - caffeine! The Carbons and Hydrogens are left off to keep it from getting bulky. I think it'd look great in a window!


There's more to share, but must go work on Math! Classes during the summer... not the best idea lol

Hello World!

Just getting things started!

The prime reason for this blog is, of course, to show off the awesome geekery I make! However, I'll also be sharing other fantastic finds from around the net!

Still setting things up, but for now you can:
