My commentary on creating the Future-Past.com Battlestar Galactica (BSG) website. It's all about the Props, Sets, Filming Locations, and Interviews.

My first photo removal request.

I was wondering when it would happen. Got a call from Carol, the First Unit Publicist for Battlestar. Apparently Mary McDonnall isn't comfortable with photos of her with a bald cap to be posted online. I don't blame her, the photo isn't very flattering for such a beautiful and graceful lady. Luckily the photo was an easy enough thing to pull.

At the time of the interview, Bill and I were unaware that Mary was not comfortable with photos showing her with a "bald head". I had sent the completed article to Scifi to review but never heard anything back. I think the bald head photo ban is recent.

Scifi was very courteous of the whole issue. I am always glad to help Scifi out when they come calling.

Mary, rest assured that image gets locked up in the vault never to be seen again! :)

What have I been up to?

Plenty. And that's an understatement.

I'm still plugging away at getting interviews typed up for the site. Contracted a few hapless souls to help with the typing. Sorry guys, I know it really sucks.

Hopefully the transition of the Blogger layout to match Future-Past.com will be completed sometime soon. Ugh... XML is cool, but boy does it take a long time to get fine tuned compared to straight CSS.

I've contributed a new header image for battlestarprops.com along with the "Name Mark" which will be used on tee shirts and other identity material.

Next project to tackle for PropWorx is a "Certificate of Authenticity" for the auction items. It will have a very Battlestar feel to the CoA.

That's it for now. I'll keep plugging away.
