You can now see me on my webcam live whenever I broadcast! The page is called "Jayther Live!" in the Navigation window. There's a chatroom so you can still type things to me, as well as me to type whenever I'm not broadcasting but signed on to the chatroom! -] Hope you guys like the new addition -]
Oh, and you need sign up on ustream.tv so you can chat in the chatroom -] Thanks to UStream for making this possible for multiple people!
Sorry, people. My FTP client (the program that allows me to upload my HTML and other files to my FTP server) expired, since it was a trial version. It was only recently that I've heard about FileZilla, a free open source FTP client. I can now upload my files into the server (as you can see)!
The major update I need to address that I haven't been able to do so is the releaes of Stick Em Left! It's the first video in five months (and this year) other than the World of Pivot promotional video and a few other Pivot_Forum collaborations. It's also the first time I ever got honors for a video, and that's pretty damn impressive, since I live in USA and getting honors in USA YouTube is not particularly easy. All of the honors involved Most Discussed, Top Favorited, and Top Rated. For the Today honors, I got around the 20's and 30's rank, and the Week and Month honors got around 20's. I'm pretty damn proud of myself!
Also, breathtaking moment: Stick Em Up has passed the 6-digit view count (over 100,000 views)! Remember my first Vlog mentioning the 5-digit breakthrough? I'll probably do one soon, but less shy and less repetitive and more helpful. Just gotta find the time to actually do it. Also, over 700 subscribers is a good number as well -D
To see how much people actually read these long updates, reply to my 1st Vlog on my YouTube Channel (or make a new topic/reply to it if there's already one) about a bicycle. Don't ask why I want you to do it, but post about it. You can ask what about the bicycle or whatever, but I won't give you an answer. It's just a test of how many people actually read this (plus one thing that I won't mention). Don't worry, you'll find out later.
Ok, time for some short bad news: I've been really busy with school and stuff, so new videos will be much delayed due to the lack of time actually spending on them. But don't worry, the "Stick Em" series will still continue! People are already trying to guess what the next potential name for it, and a (very) few guessed it correctly (though I haven't (and never will) notified them that they have). I already have a set in mind (a potential five future titles) and it will be harder to guess what the next video's name will be. It's related, of course, but it just won't be as easy.
Which reminds me, have you guys noticed (with the exception of Stick Em Up) the relation between the direction the stick figures are going in the introduction animations and its title? Respond to any of my Stick Em video about it -D
For those wondering about the Rivalry series, yes, I will continue that, most likely before the next "Stick Em" video. All hail to the sword and pin!
A few other crap:
- PivotMasterDX (my influence) is back! (http://youtube.com/PivotMasterDX)
- Secret animation project (shh!)
- Yes, that sword in Conflict will still be there, along with the pin. Might be a different sword, though, since I want to make it in Pivot instead of an MS Paint sprite. The pin will most likely stay the same as a sprite due to colors and the level of easiness of working with only one item instead of two for a bowling pin.
- I cannot guarantee the order of release of each future video. The secret project might come out first, since it's farther than the rest of the stuff.
- Just noticed that the average views per day for this site is now around the 20s instead of the 10s. Yay!
- From this point on, I will type out the dates of each update with the month's word instead of the number, since a percentage of people who visit my site view the purely numerical datestamps as day/month/year instead of the American month/day/year.
Wow I just realized that this update was pretty damn long. Sorry, but I hope you read all of it -]

9/21/07 Update: About page is finally written! And Videos page fixed
Finally! The empty About page is filled with history and interesting facts about J13 Productions! Haha anyway, the About page has been there since this site launched, but nothing written in it except "Work in Progress" or "I will write something here soon -]". But yeah, you can read all about the short history of J13 Productions and its branches!
Also, to Internet Explorer users, you might have had a little glitch in the second part of the Videos page (the non-animated videos were in a different part of the Videos window). It's fixed now so it doesn't look glitched -].

Upcoming Update, 9/9/07 Note:
This is the very first Upcoming Update note, so I'll make a short descrption for this particular section.
These are just future or during development notes, so anything said here are not guaranteed to be on the next update unless stated otherwise.
Anyway, on to the main note. I'm planning to make the positions of the windows persist by use of cookies so users can have their own layout per visit, but that will take me a while to figure that out. Getting the position values is 20x harder than getting the condition of a collapsable window. Also, the About page needs to have something there, but I'll put something there soon.
Notes
To view YouTube videos here: Enable ActiveX controls for this site Attention!: The DIV "windows" here can minimize and open! Not only that, but your computer (cookies required) will also remember if you left most of the windows open or closed! And one more thing: you can move the windows! But I'm still working on the persistence of the positions of each window, so stay tuned! Note: Site is best viewed in 1024 x 768 resolution (or more, except everything will seem to bunch up on the top left corner) with the latest Internet Explorer. FireFox might show an unrendered shadow of the DIV windows when you drag them around when collapsed.
