Vagabond’s Caravan

Here’s two test of my best test shots (other than those which flash were fired), open and view the full-size if you want, you’ll see the difference in between compact digital camera and d-SLR. =p Brunet user please don’t open, each image file is around 1.5MB. =) For those who has espeed, please check out the second one, I really like the details, so sharp!

Oh yea, I installed a new theme, Zeke 1.0, which is a neat theme with the Featured post feature (post can be define as Featured. Featured post will be displayed right below the header, ie. the current featured post is”Officially a Nikon D40 owner, my first d-SLR ever!” post), which is a handy feature for me when I wanted a certain post to remain visible/highlighted for a certain interval of time. Well, it’s just a temporary theme, too, I am still in search for a good eme, or perhaps develop my own (but too much work and I am way too n00b). =) Give me some feedbacks yea? =)

P.S: Decided to revert back to K2, and I guess I’ll use it as a base theme and spin it into my own theme. =)

Well, another thing I was working on is emoticons. I used to be a fan of emoticons (collecting and installing more 1,000 emoticons on my MSN, just to get the whole program screwed up and forced to re-install it, LoL) but no longer am. I found that BANZAIsts really like to use the Onion head emoticons (葱宝/洋葱头) and I like ‘em a lot too. It’s cute and funny, and after some googling (or should I say Baidu-ing?), I found that this set of emoticons actually has a lot of fans in China/Taiwan and there’s a number of fan sites and even official websites, haha. =D It sorts of turn out to be a franchise now, and is featured in advertisements, games and even it’s own set of collectible figures, now that’s really cool.

And yes, by now you should had guessed it right, I just implemented some 洋葱头 emoticons into this blog, hehe, bet that this is going to attract those BANZAIsts to my blog, ! I am still working on it, and will be adding more and more of them slowly. And when everything is ready, I’ll make it available in the comment section too, so readers can use those emoticons when commenting.

And people, check out this video - A Hong Kong child is winning acclaim for her keen eye at the age of just four. Crazy, a 4 years old girl being a photographer?! And hell, the Sony looks huge in her hands, well, sigh…
