I swear in 3 weeks I will start mapping again. This term has been insanely hectic with a grand total of:
8 Assignments
7 Exams
And
4 QCS Tests.
For those who dont live in QLD, Australia, the QCS tests are basically the ones that (along with your school grades) decide your ranking to get into uni.
Still 5 assignments to go and all of the exams and QCS havent been done yet.

In other news, my HTML editor has got some tasty new features and GUI:

It is now a whopping 3288 lines of code.

You can stop reading now.

My batch changer has progressed far enough to make a site from it!
i literally took all of ten seconds to make all 21 pages.
and if i want to add a link to the sidebar or something, it will probably take less time than it would using frames :D
check out the new site, using divs, at:

Whats new in the land of Penguinboy?
this is:
User posted image
its a handy editor for my site, i plan to get rid of the frames and use divs, so i am making a batch editor so if i want to change the sidebar, i just click a button and it changes every .html file with the new changes!
mind you, i have only worked about an hour on it but here is a list of features so far: (more for myself than anyone else really)

-opens the file typed into the file bar at the top 2 different ways
*1 - in full, from the start of the text to the end ('full' button)
*2 - just the body section, saves messy extras (when divs are used)
-opens my template file in 2 ways, same as above
-clear button to clear the display
-preview button opens the html file up in firefox (or whatever)
-close button closes
-save buttons save, whether only the body is opened or the full file.
-browse for folder, file displays separately to the folder

to be coded in:
-save buttons, in part and full for any page and the template
-batch change, changes the bit you have changed in every html in the folder
-browse button

later additions
-sidebar change - opens up just the sidebar code and batch changes the new bits (banner change too)
-add news button - opens a new dialog, enter the news entry, and it adds it to the news page, inderts date and time automatically
-add images/screens - i have 3 screenshot pages for my mod and this will add a number of images to the page, under the 'latest screens' bit and bumps the older screens down
-add page - adds a page, lets youedit and save it, gives you the option to add new page to the sidebar
-etc.

blah blah end.

*NEW UPDATE!
GUI is the same still, but i have coded in the save buttons
'twas tricky, the 'only open the body' scheme was hard to get around, but i managed to get it to save the edited bit and shove it inside the body of the original file.
browse button still isn't coded in.
LATEST BUILD: 399 Lines of code. small but effective.
another update soon!?

kzmod is out! not that anyone cares, but kzmod is a hl2 mod where all you do is jump - sounds gay but its really fun and addictive. basically you have to get to the top while jumping up ledges, between walls, around obstacles and such. it is based from kz_ maps in cs 1.6 (and a little of cz). kzmod also supports surf maps, which are said to be being killed off in cs:source for some reason, so surfers in source will have to get it too :P
