NOTE: I think most of this stuff is 3-4 years old.
Over the years, I have accumulated a bunch of random stuff that I almost finished (Jim Power, Gomola Speed), didn't want to share (too embarrassed, like the remix below) or forgot to post (RASTER Magazine) or ________ (stuff I may add).
Since it is XMAS, I figured I might as well post a few things. Who knows? Some of you may dig something here and change your desktop (ha!) :D
GOMOLA SPEED Wallpaper

I guess I wasn't finished writing this page, plus I wasn't completely happy with the final product? I can't remember. It doesn't seem too bad now, but I remember not being happy with something.
ANYWAY, I love the character designs! I think I have some other images from the manual...but I never included them in this page? I tried to find them....to no avail. Sadly, the iPhone image is lo-res these days...
Jim Power in 3-D Wallpaper!
BLAST FROM THE PAST: It was in the COMPARE SNES vs. MD vs. PCE thread (awack!) that I was inspired to make this...

I just needed to write a bit more. Also, you can tell this is old because the iPhone resolution is half of the current standard (ha!).
I had a bunch of stuff I wrote to finish the page...but I think I lost it years ago. I was basically skewering the (then) brand-new push for 3D TELEVISIONS. Of course, this is now passe. Oh well. DATED, NON-FUNNY MATERIAL DESERVED TO BE LOST.

RASTER Magazine (was this a fanzine? does anyone have info on it?)

Read the three TG-16 reviews...sadly, I didn't scan the whole magazine (I wish I did!), because I'd post the whole thing for you to read. I have this...somewhere...in a box...somewhere...

Ugghhh... I don't have skills, the mix is very low, I wanted to continue playing around (too repetitive) but... this is very amateurish.
I was purposefully trying to depart from the catchy, ass-kicking elements of this awesome tune, I wanted to be ANTI-asskicking:

I dig the BL remix. I'd say mission accomplished on doing a 180 from BL's tunes. :mrgreen:

my wife teaches spin (stationary bike) classes at the gym.
She loves this fast paced stuff for her classes. Must be 160 BPM to qualify.

Comrades, you are too gracious. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
I did change the wallpaper on my laptop, though. Ha!

NECRO-bump because I was drinking some rum and felt the urge to pull a nullity.
SELF PROMOTION....
Also, Gomola Speed has been getting some attention recently and some folks might want the desktop wallpaper.
Really, the truth is that I was trying to find the old fanzine "RASTER" and I couldn't remember if I ever shared it on the pcefx forums...well, sadly, I can't find the print issue. I really wanted to re-read it, especially because I never scanned the entire issue and only have a handful of scans. Oh well.
