New Site Design

This is the first page for the work in progress that will be known as Russellmania 4.0 It\'s been awhile since I made any significant changes, and these will qualify as significant. Paring down on the content, hopefully making updating more often easier. The things that have survived the revision (at least so far) are:

AI Updates 40+ Year Old Images

09.20.2026

Summer 2026 was to be an attempt to recapture some of the fun from the old Summer of the Game playing that Jerry and I did, comical taunting banter with various game playing, and usually more game playing than normal. Instead, I think we actually managed less game playing than normal, and that's ok.

Labor Day has been our normally observed end of summer. Today I was going through folder and files looking for some images (that I did not find) and I came across scans of the old Summer of the Game promo sheets I made back in '85. Let me tell you, they are not good. They aren't decent.

That got me to thinking of what if I had made those promo drawings today? An excuse to make some AI slop! I fed the original image into ChatGPT and pointed out some of the details I remembered, and then just let it make whatever. It was a nice waste of an hour on a Sunday night that gave me some good chuckles.

Normally I try to better align thumbnails, but these scans originally came through as GIFs at odd resolution and sizes, so I just made thumbnails at 200px wide and let the height go all over the place. 16 and 57 year old me's are still chuckling about these.

Blog Archive

As always, correct spelling is optional in any blog entry. Keep in mind that any links more than a year old may not be active, especially the ones pointing back to Russellmania (I like to move things around!).

Tags have been added to posts back to 2005. There may be an occasional old blog that gets added to the tag list, but in reality what could be noteworthy from that far back?
