Ah, yes. I've noticed many people have their own blogs, so I supposed that I should start my own. Every blog will be uploaded after one of my meals; Dessert, dinner, snack-time, lunch, and breakfast. I will write a section about that meal, then a rant after. Excuse the crappy picture, I made it in Paint. So, let's get cracking! (Or blogging, that is to say.)

Meal of the Day: Breakfast
Breakfast: It's rumored to be the most important meal of the day. I myself usually just drink a glass of milk and skip eating anything, and most of my friends are shocked by that since I usually get irritated if I don't eat a lot or don't have a lot to eat. ^^' Well, I ate waffles today in addition to my glass of milk. Waffles taste quite nice when they are toasted in just the right amount of time, so the outer edge is crispy and the middle is a bit soft, but not too soft. I eat two waffles with maple syrup and butter. I don't like too much butter, so I put a pat of butter in the middle of each waffle about the size of two of the inner squares. Considering the maple syrup, I put just enough on each waffle so it covers most of the waffle but doesn't drip off the side. Eating the whole waffled by stabbing with a fork and holding up to your mouth is a bit hard for me (Since I have to find a crunchy part and then keep the waffle from falling off), so I usually just pick up the waffle with my hand and eat it in big bites. ^^ That's why I usually don't put much on the waffles, so it doesn't make my hand too dirty. Perhaps if you're not obsessed with everything being proper and clean, you can try this style of eating waffles.

Rant of the Day: Skins
So, I assume that most of you have entered the 'Skins' area of PMC, with the list set on 'Recently Updated'? It's chaos. There are many unshaded skins, teenager skins, assassin skins, creeper-hoodie skins, Steve duplicate skins, and noise skins, but there's the rare shining beam of light that is a good, shaded skin without noise. Teenager, creeper-hoodie, and assassin skins are usually re-uploaded many, many times, so they are ridden with haters and trolls. Some of these skins WOULD be nice with SOME shading, not noise, but, really, how many assassins wear HEADPHONES? Not to hate on those skins, but be realistic. You wouldn't find some random teenage dude with a long robe that has a creeper face on the back with headphones. At least, in a medieval world, and assassin wouldn't wear headphones, there would be weapons on him or something. Some skin designs do have a good concept, but they're not shaded, so the true potential doesn't show through. I encourage skin makers to look at shading tutorials. my shading isn't as good as many people's though, so I look at various shading tutorials to find which one fits the best for me. I'm currently using GIMP, but I'm think of shading within MCSkin 3D by using a palette and using DinowCookie's Tutorial. Skins' diamond, view, and download rates will most likely be HIGHER than an unshaded skin. I know, because I used to do unshaded skins. But when I shaded my skins, the view and download rate was higher. With that, I encourage many skinners to take a look at shading.

Good blog! And you know what's funny? My ULTRAblog of the week is with the same ranting category. But still, I think that everyone's got a problem with the skin page. xDDDD

Hm. :/ Well, I hope you don't accuse me of stealing the idea. I have the skin page problem too. I won't do just skins for rants though.
