GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Some people on the tech support board noticed that there are new features available in preferences: image uploading. Although these are not working yet, it looks like the staff's working on bringing us the ability to upload custom avatars. Finally!

So on that note, it's time to resurrect the Battlestar Galactica icon set I made earlier this year. They weren't chosen to be included in the TV.com icon choices, but at least now I -- and everyone else who wants -- will be able to use them.

There were slots for 20 icons in the original set, but since I experimented with a few extra ones, I'll post them all here. That's why there's so many Baltar icons: he was particularly difficult to make. It's not like I like him so much.

Here goes:

The peeps on Battlestar Galactica

Adama
Apollo
another Apollo
Baltar 1
Baltar 2
Baltar 3 -- no glasses
Billy -- R.I.P., Billy. I liked him.
Sharon / Boomer / Athena
another Sharon
Cally
Chief
Doc Cottle
Dualla
Felix Gaeta
Helo
Laura Roslin
Starbuck
another Starbuck -- this one kinda sucks
Saul Tigh

Cylons

Centurion 1
Centurion 2
Number Six

Ships & Objects

Cylon raider
BSG seal
Viper

Others

Jack Fisk -- He's dead already. Oh well.

There's no zip file of all the icons because I don't know where I'd host one.

Two great new features on TV.com: polls and -- finally -- person forums! Of course I had to try these out so here's a rather pointless album poll on the Jewel forum.

Anyone else annoyed by the fact that you can't change your vote?

There's also a third new feature called pre-show buzz which is basically just a poll if you're gonna watch a future episode. Meh, to me that's not very interesting.

Curiously, I've discovered that you can actually vote multiple times if you use different computers or browsers. I hope they fix this soon, otherwise people could manipulate the votes.

Hi! Long time no... erm, write?

I'm still here. In fact, I do check in on TV.com almost every day to check my queue (mostly empty) or the show boards (surprisingly active) for the shows I edit. But since it's summer, I haven't blogged so much lately.

I finally got around updating my banner. I changed the background to something more neutral, changed some show pics, and added the two shows that were missing: Big Love and Windfall.

I also started a show blog for The L Word where I collected all the rumors and updates about the fourth season of the show. Now I don't need to use the forum for those, so that's a great improvement. Anyone know any great editor blogs? I'd like to see what everyone else is doing but I can't seem to find any shows with blogs. What I haven't been able to figure out is do you get a notification (by PM or in updates) when there's a new blog for your tracked shows. Anyone know?

What every scifi fan already knows is that the new seasons of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis kick off next week. I'm really, really looking forward to it! What can I say, I'm a TV junkie even in summer.

The year 2005 marks the 10th anniversary of Jewel's debut album, "Pieces of You". I've been listening to her music ever since.

The folksy/indie style of her songs, her crystalline voice, and the sound of an acoustic guitar wasn't...
