This site has gone through a lot since I first bought the domain name. Started just playing around, learning more about what I liked on a page. Then started trying to sell some services and artwork. Decided that was not the way to go and backed off from everything for a while. Late last year I came back and just set this up as a holding page for my blog and that is where it has stayed. Allowed my the chance to write pointless things while using the server space for testing. Now I am starting to combine most of the above to make some actual use of the site. Display some work, share some things and maybe teach someone something in the long run. Still if there is any artwork you might like, or some services/assistance on a project you might need just let me know and I will gladly reply. Keep checking back as time goes for more changes, but I must admit they will probably come slowly.

Been working hard to get more artwork and products loaded to the various shops I started. Found a new one that also sells skateboards like the one to the left with my Puppeteer charcoal drawing on it. More will be added as I start designing at home again as well as other items I will only be showcasing in this blog.

I had been hoping to start sharing websites I come across or information that might be helpful to people, but I just haven't made it there quite yet. The only site this weekend I did come across that looked interesting, but didn't get enough time to take proper look, was Sprout Builder. Hopefully will get a better change to check it out later this week. Other than that, I am just tired and burnt out.

And by the way, for those of you who prefer my previous format of distant rambling stories and such (like my sister for instance), I will continue with that in future posts on occasion. For now I am just trying to get into at least a habit of posting something more often than ever before. A somewhat difficult thing for me.

Why Internet Explorer?

I feel the need to pose the question... Why Internet Explorer? Why is this the browser everyone feels the need to design for just because the majority of people have no idea that there are better, in my opinion, browsers out there. I honestly have no idea, other than lack of knowledge and laziness. Both of which I can't accept as excuses.

I bring this up mostly from annoyance. And I will admit a lot of the annoyance I cause for myself. Designing pages, testing pages, and finding those pages work right in all browser but IE. Now I am sure people will say those design issues I have could easily have been avoided, and they might be right. But why then do the other browsers all display properly but one. Why?

So to conclude my rant (there was more, but I lost a lot of steam) I will list for your information other browsers to use besides IE.

Quality Prints & Framing

Now artwork from ZinterInk is available as high quality prints with custom frames and many options. To see the current gallery just visit zinterink.imagekind.com. I have 19 pieces of artwork available for purchase at this time and will be adding more as I can.

If you are looking for something a little more custom I would be happy to see what can be done. Just let me know what you are looking for and I will let you know what I can do.

Online Stores

If you didn't already notice, there are additions to the top of this page. Three online stores are being worked on to offer up some of my past artwork (as well as anything I create now) on many different items. Prints being my preferred choice are only offered on cafepress but there are also many great items besides these prints as well. I have only been working on these for about a day, so more is still to come. If there are items you are interested in that I do not have set up at this time, just let me know. Also, custom work is always an option.

Artwork & Such

In the thought of moving forward, I have put some stuff for sale on Cafepress. Nothing too much to begin with, just an assortment of items containing select artwork from what I have available. Check it out, if there is something you might like to have created that you don't see there, just let me know. cafepress.com/zinterink
