How Google Chrome is created?

Did you ever wonder how Google Chrome is ever created?
I found out the story behind this glorious process of the rise of Google Chrome through facebook.

A friend of mine share this out and I'm lucky enough to witness this.

Google Chrome

Step 1: Think of something that can beat Microsoft.

Step 2: Crush Mircosoft

Step 3: Make Microsoft into a sphere through squeezing.

Step 4: Ta~da!!! Google Chrome.

**This is just a joke. Microsoft dudes, please do not sue me for this. XD Thank you.

Black Friday

Friday is supposed to be a happy day as the next day will be holiday.
As for me, it's the other way round.
I had a black friday.

Once I stepped out from my house this morning, I already knew that something bad will happen to me.

Morning look as if it's evening.

Arrived office early in the morning and settled a leaflet for a company.
No task till almost time for lunch.
Received a new task to design 5things for a strawberry farm named EQ.
Billboard, memo board, entrance board for strawberry farm and mushroom, and rules and regulations board.
I was like WTF??? =.= 5 designs in 4hours after lunch???
God bless me please..

Soon enough I went for lunch with colleagues.
Another bad thing fall upon me.

The lecturer came for a visitation get angry at me as I missed calls from her during my lunch break.
I rush back to office straight away after I saw those miss calls.
When I saw her, her face shows that as if she's gonna kill me right there. =.=
Her mood gets better once I settled everything with she.

Now, it's time to get busy back with the designs.
Unfortunately, no matter how much i try to push myself for the designs, I couldn't come up with anything nice.
I'm stuck at the office until 8.30pm. (OT for 2hours 30mins. = first time during internship)

That's not the worst part.
Worst part is that I have a serious pain in my mouth.
I guess it's my first wisdom tooth making it's way out.
Seriously pain.
F**K!!!!
Damn frustrated and irritated whole day.
*My cheek is getting swollen because of the pain.

Damn!!!

Just enjoy where we are and what we have now. ^^

However, I notice some minor bugs and possible problem need to be solved.
For instance, contact numbers in your phone without country code inserted are not possible to send messages to.

Colosseum Android Game

Colosseum Android

Hey, guys.
Wanna recommend one pretty cool game to all of Android users out there. (available for iPhone too)
I purchased this game as well with a pretty low price for a nice graphic game like this one.
It just costed me RM2.98 and it gave me quite a lot of fun.
This game named Colosseum created by one of a very famous android game developer, Gamevil.
This is a whack and slash platform game with a lot of weapons and some armors.
Some weapons have magical power as well such as freezing target and add some burning effects.
Power ups also can be collected through out the game to strengthen yourselves for that stage.
This game is pretty simple to play seriously. Saw anything that move just whack them off with the weapons of your choice.

Gameplay is okok. It's fun but doesn't last long.
The game turns to become repetitive after stage 10 onward.
As for a RM2.98 game, the graphic and game feature really worth it.
But the gameplay doesn't quite worth it.
After you get all the weapons and the upgrades, everything seem to become repetitive.
The only thing that is different is the monster's difficulty between stages.

Equipments shop.

As you can see, the equipment shop really interesting and tempting with all the equipments you can purchase to strengthen yourself.

The first 10stages will be like this. (if I'm not mistaken about the stage.)

Stage 1-10 you will be whacking orcs here. Both melee and range monster will be attacking you.

Level 11 onward will be like this.

After whacking orcs, next will be skeletons in graveyard.
I'm at stage 22 now and the map and monster still the same.
But some elemental monsters like a skeleton shaman appear around stage 20 I guess.
Nothing much different from stage 15 to now.. Monster difficulty changes. That's all.

For those who love to collect nice graphic game, RM2.98 will be worth.
If not, I suggest you to skip it. YOU WILL GET BORED TO IT VERY SOON.

Awesome Stop Motion

Came across this awesome production team known as counter 656 after viewing a video tagged by my friend Benjamin. This production team produce quite a lot of interesting stop motion videos. You guys can have a look in their YouTube profile. They are a production team from Taiwan and I guess most probably they are still students after observing several of their videos and notice their background.

They are seriously quite a potential team that can develop further. Most of their videos consist of humour sense and not only good story line.
One thing that seriously amazed me is their way of executing their works. The effects and camera angles really awesome.
Below is one of the video that is quite awesome created by them.

Every movements seem to be so agile and flexible as if they are really moving like anime.
Stop-motion video requires quite a lot of skills, such as photography skills, video editing skills, music and sound creating skills, etc etc.
I would like to participate in developing or creating one of these if I were given a chance.

The Power of Photo Manipulation Skills

Designing is really something very wonderful and fun. It makes something impossible become possible. Wild imagination can turn out into something looks real and create fantasy into this world.
Here by, I'm trying to demonstrate some of my photo manipulation skills which is part of the designing skills.

I have been always thinking of how will a beautiful city looks like after several thousand years or so. How will they look like when they turn into ancient ruins. In addition, I have always wondering and trying to feel a city that turns into a gloomy scary place. As for the combination of these several things, I came to a conclusion of turning a nice city into an ancient gloomy ruins.

Here's the result of the photo manipulation.

before the manipulation took place and after it did.

I'm an amateur to these as well. Just trying to share out my collection and learn from others.
Any comments and feedbacks are welcome.
