I have added some of my graphical creations to the site. Origionally they were designed for me (and a few friends), however I decided to release them to the public. I have, so far, released 43 avatars and a couple wallpapers. I will be adding to both as I create more of them in my spare time.

The avatars I origionally created for MSN, but they may be used anywhere. Many of the avatars are intended to be comical, though some may find certain ones to be offensive. Please don’t use the avatars in inappropriate situations in order to offend or make fun of certain parties. There are also some normal avatars (many dealing with emotions) that you may use.

The wallpapers (only two thusfar) I usually create when I come accross something interesting as I’m editing photos, creating something for websites, or just when I’m bored. They’re nothing amazing, but some may find them interesting. You’re free to download and use those as well.

Well, that’s it for now. Again, I’ll be adding more as I go. I do, however, focus on software, not graphics design. Also, I’ve been very busy lately. Clients, MyCustomBB, other personal projects…it’s been a mess. Plus, the recent snowstorm in my area (Western NY) left me without power for a week. That put me behind a bit. Okay - why are you reading this anyway? You must be as bored as I am. Better get back to work.

 I have a habit of living in the past - I go through memories in my head over and over again. Both good and bad. It’s how I cope - if there’s a bad memory, I relive it until it no longer bothers me or I grow numb to it. If it’s a pleasant memory, I take all I can from it. I enjoy it. Lately (at this time, Aug 2008), I’ve been thinking more of the future. But I still have that certain habit that I just can’t seem to break. (more…)

Welcome to my new blog. Origionally I simply had this URL forward users to my account on RentACoder, but decided to do a little bit more. Until I have the time to create a fully functional website of my own (I’m exceptionally busy), I’ll be using WordPress.

This site is not going to contain too much information. Mostly it will contain links to any other projects I may have, and small things I make in my spare time. For those of you who are here in hopes of contacting me for a project, you may do so directly via E-mail at mike@mikegerwitz.com, or via RentACoder.
