Walking the Edge of Reality

A look behind the curtain to my world...

Unscheduled Bounce!

I sent an "in game" email to someone yesterday, hoping they would react and post as usual... and NOW I get notification that MAILER-DAEMON rejected it because the GoDaddy mail relay (208.109.80.27) is apparently blacklisted... Well, gee, isn't that nice?

Times like this I wish I had my own physical server. If I got blacklisted, *I* had to resolve it, and can address the spam blockers as a representative of my own IP address. I'm certainly not doing GoDaddy's dirty work to get this resolved.

Yesterday I went looking for the source image to my trademark "digital rabbit" to the right, hoping to make it higher resolution. I found it on Getty, and I made a higher resolution version (300x500), but when I downscale it the binary is virtually illegible and the eyes simply look green. Going to have to tinker with it some more.

Getty ain't cheap... To get it at "huge" resolution (like 5000x5000) would cost me in excess of $400. When I have money to burn and need it for some high resolution printed media, perhaps. Well, either that or hunt down my own rabbit and take my own photo (which would probably end up being cheaper anyhow).
