Chris's Projects
Here are links to some of the projects I've been working on.
- Linux Lessons - These are lessons and Howtos to teach people how to use Linux (specifically Kubuntu). I'm pleased with the graphics that I developed for the look of this site. I also like the way I used Javascript to enhance the usability of the site.
- Milton is a game that my family got at a garage sale some time ago. It became a family favorite and seemed simple enough for my first Flash/Actionscript programming experience. Hey Hey Hey.
- MangaReader is a project that I'm trying to complete to help people who want to use Japanese comics to study the language, although it can also be used just to read some of the comics. Here are the comics I've been working on so far:
- Angel Beat: Vol.1, No.1 A series dedicated to sweet, romantic love stories about Japanese teens. (Not completely translated yet. Full Japanese text so far.)
- Yotsuba: Vol.4, No.1 A series about a precoucious young girl. One of Alyssa's and my favorites. (Completely translated, but with no Japanese text)
- MangaReader: The Flex Version: This is the Flex version of the MangaReader Project. You must have Flash Player 9 installed in order to view it.
- Caferock.org Blogs are part of a made-from-scratch project for this website. There are numerous blogs on the website that are all "controlled" by just a few pages. By changing the CSS stylesheets, I'm able to create a different look for all of them. Here are the blogs on this site:
- Mental Aquarium - A blog about fun and interesting stuff happening in my life.
- Deeper into the Mist - A blog about the deeper thoughts that I've been having.
- Today's Specials - A blog that contains links to funny and interesting thing that Alyssa and I have found on the internet.
- Shouting My Barbaric Yawps Across the Rooftops - Alyssa's blog about her life and the thoughts she's had.
