Winding down

Sun Jun 22, 2008, 11:39 AM
  • Mood: Relief
Well, the summer term is very rapidly drawing to a close. I've already finished most of my exams (the exception is physics, which doesn't follow the normal schedule) and in a month or so I'm going to be free of the school forever.

HOWEVER...

Being free of the school forever also means I'm never going to have (reasonably) free Internet access again. Owing to the fact that no RISC OS application can handle deviantART sensibly yet (unless Peter Naulls has fixed Firefox's file handling) and the fact that I will never be able to put anything onto the computers at the college I'm going to attend, I am not going to be able to access dA again.

This is very likely to be permanent.

There is also the fact that there isn't much in the way of sunsets in the middle of London (Wimbledon Common aside), which means I won't have much photographic material to upload anyway. There are no flame fractal programs for RISC OS that I know of (and certainly no Apophysis), so that front will be completely dead and I have been slowly abandoning it since the beginning of this term.

Therefore, as of this journal entry, I am officially winding down my activities on dA. When term ends approximately four weeks from now, this will become a dead account. I shall remove everyone from my watch list so I don't get flooded with thousands of messages when (or if) I log in again, and I expect all my watchers to do the same with me. There will be nothing new to see anyway.

I am not going to close this account permanently, so my fractal artwork and photography will still be there for the masses to view; not that I ever exactly drew the masses anyway.

See you whenever.

Martin

PS: Apologies for the mood. dA's brand new journal layout appears to have broken that particular feature.
