Do not be alarmed! This is the same old personal blog of Robbie Coutts, it’s just had a bit of a face-lift. With a brand new navigation style and new attractive colours I believe the blog looks alot fresher and easier to read. Throughout the new design you’ll find a few extra things that may or may not blow your mind! For example, check out the new About Me Page, where you can read all about me, my life and just about everything else! The photo on that page was taken in the tunnels near my house – kudos goes out to Timsky for taking the Photo! Pages have moved from their original place in the sidebar to their own individual pages, including: Archives, Categories, Photos and Links. And a brand new page where you can contact me anytime you want, the Contact Page! So if you feel you need to know something about me desperately, just drop me a line on that page and you’ll be set!

Due to the thread here I decided to deck my blog out for christmas. What do you think? You like? I didn’t put much effort in coz it’s just a silly muck around thing, but all illustrations are my own, except the font’s of the candy cane and the christmas lights. I got those from dafont.com. Do you like my little reindeers? Drew them myself on paper! Oh yeah!
Anyways, not much has been happening lately. Been a little unwell recently, don’t know why and don’t know what’s wrong. Went to the doctor, and it appears I’m just crazy. Wow, that’s comforting huh? So after going to the doctors 3 times all up, I’m still in pain and feeling unwell and still have nothing to show for it. Ah well, I guess that’s the way it goes. I have just been told to exercise more and get a better sleeping pattern. But it’s so hard when you’re so popular! 
So I’m about to start up my own ‘business’ for design work and such. I say ‘business’ coz it’s gonna be pretty laid back just to see how it goes. I’m going to be purchasing a 15″ Powerbook from Apple, registering a business name, registering a domain name and all that other stuff. I’ve come up with a name, don’t know what you think of it… Yellow Fox Media… What do you think? I like the yellow fox part, but i’m not too sure about the word media. Although it describes what i do perfectly, it isn’t very creative. Then I thought about Yellow Fox creations, but that’s not very original. As soon as I decide on that word i’m a goer! If you can come up with anything cool let me know! Just drop me a line in the comments.
If you are interested in my services, drop me a line at me(at)*robbiecoutts.com and I’ll see what I can do! Anyways, that’s all I have to say for the moment. I’m gonna go play some battlefront 2. Good game that. Good game.
*Replace the (at) with an @ of course. This is to avoid spam. Thanks.

One of the hardest things to do when writing a blog is to come up with a title. Especially when you start a blog entry without the intent of actually talking about a specific topic. This is just an random entry. That’s all it is.
Well. I’ve been sitting on this same line trying to think of something witty to talk about but i’m totally drawing a blank. How do you do that anyways? “Draw a blank”? I mean, who even comes up with that… Crazy people! That’s who!
I don’t think I can think of anything because I’ve got a fair bit on my mind. This week is going to be crazy busy at work with me covering extra hours. I’ve also got assignments to do and exams to prepare for. So it’s pretty full on. But’s it’s all good for the future I guess.
Here’s something for you all. I completed this not a half an hour ago and thought I’d show you all. I’ve been planning to do this for ages. It was actually in my original design for this website but never got done. But now it’s completed! But I must warn you. It could take some… no no no… it WILL take some time to download. I think it’s about 3.48mb so if you wanna see something cool then patience is the answer. Is it worth it? Of course! If it wasn’t worth it it wouldn’t be on the site now would it?
*I thought I’d add in a little extra something in here while you’re waiting for it too load. But I still can’t really think of anything. I’m getting closer to owning an iPod and some sort of laptop. Not sure if I still want an iBook because of complatibility issues. But it’s just so sexy I can’t really go past it. I’m 90% decided I’m going to get a iBook. I hate making decisions. Especially when it includes money. But i haven’t bought anything big for a long time and I’ve definately earnt it. I’m 100% on the iPod though! Yay!

So what do ya think? It was gonna go in the top right corner up there. But coz it takes too long to download i don’t think i’ll put it in now. I might just make a smaller version with a different style. It was made in Illustrator and Flash with Maskings and frame by frame animation. A little time consuming, not as long as I expected tho, and totally worth it all! Pretty sexy huh? If you wanna watch it again, right click and press ‘Play’.
And yes! I am for hire!
Thanks for reading!
