Hello. I have three news, bad, good and neutral.
Bad: my work computer (hard drive) failed. Fortunately, not instantly, so I copied all the data to an external drive and am busy setting up a new device. Yes, this happened exactly when I wanted to work "more", and the next post (instead of this one) was supposed to be about my four personal animations, some of which were planned back in December. And next one was supposed to be "yesterday"! However, the delay should not be critical, so the next post is definitely about them, and then the standard release of the poll winner from the polls. Sure, if everything goes well...
Good: my computer contained files that had been accumulating for five years + those that were rescued from the previous computer (which also broke, but instantly). In general, it was a terrible chaos of data, like a bunch of different folders and titles sort of "gfsdghdfjhg". However, I was well versed in this, but I realized that transferring everything in exactly the same form would be a mistake. Therefore, I am also doing some cleaning and optimization of the structure. We are talking about "pictures/drawings/images", a kind of by-product of my main activity in the form of animations. But over time, a decent number of them have accumulated, and this is also part of the "imbapovi content", at least important not only to me, but also for history. Usually they are stored on Deviantart and Pixiv, although to see them, need to register. Therefore, I collected everything I could, sorted and cataloged. And uploaded it to a separate cloud folder, which I will try to update in a timely manner from now on. It will be HERE
Neutral: the last thing that bothers me and makes me feel "incomplete" is the lack of non-music versions for old videos. Yes, these are mostly animations about balloons and early inflations - and the spreadsheet has blank lines for links since 2022! I was just about to start this now in January, but things have changed. I would say that I have a heightened desire to finally close this debt. At least for my own peace of mind. And what about you? I would be curious to know your opinion. I will do it in any case sooner than later, but if there is interest, I will try to do it a little faster (without sacrificing the usual plans).
