Good grief Charlie Brown!! 😀

Earlier this year after putting together my retro mobile office wish list and slowly working toward acquiring all these old pieces to complete it, I landed a Minolta Dimage F2400 slide and negative film scanner for about $40. Unfortunately, long gone are any slides and film I may have had when I...

That's incredible for the price of admission! I agree that the expensive computerized telescopes aren't really an option but this could be fun! I can't believe the shots you were able to get with it! Would love to see pics of your setup sometime if/when time permits.

I don't have a Sinclair nor do I have a TRS-80 Model 3 or 4 anymore (which is where I learned of this existing earlier today) but it would be really cool to connect some form of vintage up to a Speak and Spell to make it talk. Having the Atari 800 as a kid kind of ruined me though, since I could...

Doodling around with NewtPaint on the MessagePad 130 for Adventures of McFloppy comics. I'm guessing the B&W aesthetic is more ideal than the color version? I'm going to have to animate this little dude at some point, somehow.

I’m not really good at pixel art or comic drawing but I thought it would fun to put the MessagePad 130 to some additional uses. After seeing an Apple disk drive photo I saw earlier, it inspired me to create The Adventures of McFloppy - a short comic series I’ll try and work on from time to time...

That does look tasty! If I don't want to cook it's pizza night,. and being a cravenous pizza eating carnivore, that tends to be quite often. 🍕 Someday I'll actually learn how to make a decent pie.

Preparing the Christmas Cards in PhotoShop Deluxe now on the PowerBook 1400c and StyleWriter 2200... Pretty cool results actually! 😎

Looks good to go, thanks! :D

Turns out none of the posts are public, meaning someone has to be a member and logged in first to see it. I can see the benefit of requiring members to login to see it but having these specific type of posts public and searchable may also aid in bringing people to the site overall.

Started on this when I first joined and finally got around to finishing it this evening. The idea was to create a magazine flyer styled single page bio, replicating parts of the older MacOS interface using purely retro gear and software. Created entirely on the PowerBook Kanga G3 in PhotoShop...

I've seen them in the $100-$250 range on a local scale (not my area in particular but in general) and when I first ran across the MolarMac, initially thought it was one of the ugliest Macs I've ever seen. Not sure what happened but my perspective on it changed and quickly grew fond of it. So...

Late night picture from the QuickTake 200 at the old Indianapolis Airport - this would have looked a lot different 24 years ago...

yeah lol I sure would hope so heh - thanks! :D

Not so sure I’m cut out for comic drawing on the MessagePad 130 lol

Oh wait, no. I forgot. The profile posts aren’t really blog appropriate, I tried a few times but it’s limited to like 150 characters or something really short. It’s more tweet like than blog like. So you can’t really go into extensive detail.

doh. that's a good point!

I realize there are a million places to make a blog so it may not make sense but was curious if there were any plans to incorporate user blogs into the forum at some point in the future.
