Playstation3: Some of my Blu-ray collection on eBay

apexad — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 03:54:38 +0000

In the case of some of these there are new editions coming out that I may pick up at some point. In the case of some of them though, I simply regret buying it. Both of those reasons mean that I have posted the Blu-ray disc up on eBay. Like all of my auctions, the starting price is 99 cents because I know that enough people will bid the price up to a reasonable level.
Here are all the auctions:

Gattaca
Entrapment
X-Men Orgins: Wolverine
10,000 B.C.
Stargate: Continuum
Species
Total Recall
Stargate: Ark of Truth

If you’re interested, please comment and bid!

Free Template!

apexad — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 07:23:03 +0000

A friend of mine runs the site/company, Breakpoint Designs. On occasion I help him out with some of the customers. In fact, the Chakkaram website (coded by Breakpoint Designs) is my work.

However, even more exciting is the new Free Templates section that will be up very soon. The first template is my code. It’s quite advanced as it has the following features: 3 column page, 2 column page, jquery image rotator, xhtml strict,, and php page structure (header.php, footer.php).

You can preview the breakpoint template by clicking on the link. As soon as the template is live on Breakpoint Designs.com, I’ll update this post with a download link as well.

Sponsor: CinemaMob

apexad — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 14:49:25 +0000

In my last post, I talked about Blu-ray books. Continuing on the path of talking about movies and videos, I present apexad.net’s newest sponsored post. There is a brand new service called CinemaMob which I think many will enjoy. At a rate of $19.95 per month, Cinemamob gives you access to video clips of all kinds. At some point I think that it may perhaps have some small clips of movies that are available on Blu-ray. However, at this point it already has great 3d animations, sporting events, concerts, and so much more available. In general Cinemamob is designed for mobile phones and other mobile devices, but I think it would also be cool if it was ever made available for Playstation 3 as well. Here’s to wishing it will happen!

Playstation 3: Blu-ray Book List

apexad — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 06:43:10 +0000

I’m really a fan of the Blu-ray books. Honestly, I think it would have been awesome if movie studios abandoned the plastic cases in favor of a more ‘environment friendly’ paper book case like these special editions. Nevertheless, I’m doing my part to send them this message.

Update! 03-04-10: I’ve bought some more books…done some research…So I updated the lists.
So far I’ve got the following Blu-ray books:
300
Amadeus
Batman
Bonnie and Clyde
Dirty Harry
Dr. Strangelove (or How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb)
Goodfellas
How the west was won
Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
JFK
Matrix, The
Midnight Express
North by Northwest
Poltergeist
Shawshank Redemption, The
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

Others I’ve found that I need to get:
Angels and Demons (German Release)
A River Runs Through it
Falling Down
Green Mile, The
Natural Born Killers
One flew over the Cuckoo’s nest
Silverado
Sin City (French Release)
Stuido Canal Collection (see this post)
Warner Bros. Premium Collection (see this post)
Clash of the Titans
Doctor Zhivago (sadly not the one that Keira Knightley is in)
Star Wars: Clone Wars Season 1
Easy Rider

Did I miss any? Anyone else out there collecting these? I found this guy on youtube, but the post is from August 2009.
Update: I found this list. 26 in all, but this list is actually missing some.

I want YOU in my Blogroll!

apexad — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 06:32:25 +0000

I am looking to add links to my Blogroll. Do you have a news site? blog? or any website? The deal is simple: link to my site, and I’ll link to yours.

For those that care, this site is a PR2, but that’s really only because I have not kept up making sure it has backlinks and all that jazz, which is why I now need to make this desperate cry for help. At one point it was a PR4, those were the days!

Jeep Liberty: Potential Road Trip Idea!

apexad — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 06:31:18 +0000

So, instead of driving the Jeep Liberty around and actually having to sleep in it, I’ve got a crazy idea. This post is sponsored by vacation rental and the great potential it has. I’ve tried sleeping in my Jeep before and it’s nothing like what luxury vacation rentals could provide me. The other great thing about vacation rentals is that in some cases they don’t even cost as much as hotels. Some of these vacation rentals may actually be vacation homes that the owners are renting out to tourists. Fireplaces, Pools, Beaches, Comfortable beds and so much more await me (or you) on the next great road trip.

So, what do you think of my Road Trip Idea?

Playstation 3: New controller, Deep Red

apexad — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 14:56:32 +0000

I actually managed to lose a Playstation 3 controller. That’s basically like losing a $50 bill! I had thought that I threw the controller into my backpack, to take with me so I could play PS3 at a friend’s house. When I got to his house, the controller was gone…it must have fallen out of my backpack or something. Either that or it could be lost at my parent’s house somewhere, among their PS3 controllers (yeah, my parent’s have a PS3 as well).

So…to replace my lost controller I decided to get one that I can tell apart from my parents controllers, and one that stands out among remotes or other stuff that could be on my floor.

DEEP RED!

Playstation 3 theme: Miranda Kerr HD

apexad — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 20:18:08 +0000

update: Miranda Kerr HD PS3 Theme – not my own icons (except the Minis folder icon).

Although I’ve dabbled in Playstation 3 theme creation before, I’ve never put too much effort into it. I’ve also never released any theme that I’ve created. Hopefully that will all change soon. I’ve decided to create a ‘Miranda Kerr HD’ theme. If your curious as to why I chose Miranda Kerr, don’t be! As Australia’s best export, Miranda Kerr should make us all jealous of Orlando Bloom.

I have not worked on the icons yet, so I’m not sure exactly when the theme will be out, but I have worked on the good part, and that’s the backgrounds:

iPhone project: headset

apexad — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 17:08:33 +0000

This is a project that I thought of thanks to a sponsor! Although, not much of a project, more just a purchase of a headset is all I am talking about. Specifically, I am looking at plantronics headsets, and even if they are not usually compatible with an iphone, since my phone is jailbroken, I assume I could get it to work!
