Update:
Holy Cow, I'm getting ~750 hits a day on the Deviant Art Pokémon Thingy.
Monkey Island
Stupid LucasArts released a Special Edition of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's revenge. So naturally, I had to replay Monkey Islands 1 through 3... and I'm currently working on number 4. This comes at a really bad time because I want to finish Pokémon HeartGold (and finally get my complete pokédex) before Atelier Rorona (PS3) and Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space (Wii) come out in mid-September. There just isn't enough hours in the day for all the videogaming that needs to be done.
MI2: SE is predictability brilliant. The updated graphics are stunning and capture the essence of the originals. The new voice acting is above par. Dominic Armato and Earl Boen delivering their lines almost exactly how I had imagined it. If I have one criticism, it is the music. They dumped the old iMuse system and replaced it with a full recorded orchestra. iMuse was a very clever system that subtly altered the music as you moved around the game, and allowed music to be synced with in-game events. In my option it was very important to the feel of the game and it was a shame to see it go. Still, a worthy update.
I'd also like to praise the Value Steam System a little. I bought the game on steam at launch and was playing it the same day. Steam offered me the pre-order bonus even though I missed the deadline. Also, since I already had a copy of the pre-order bonus (Monkey Island 1: SE), it allowed me to gift it. I sent it to my mum.
Pokémon Thingy
More people have been contacting me about my Deviant Art Pokémon Thingy, including another person who was angry that their picture was appearing on the site. Since the site is obviously getting some use I thought I should spend some time improving it. I made the following changes:

I plan to finish the set of Pokéballs soon and then I want to do another big piece. Any suggestions?

More people have been contacting me about my Deviant Art Pokémon Thingy, including another person who was angry that their picture was appearing on the site. Since the site is obviously getting some use I thought I should spend some time improving it. I made the following changes:
- Added Title and tweaked template
- Added sentence explaining what the results represent; Added disclaimer to bottom
- Added about page to explain the purpose of the page; information for users who don't understand why their art is included.
- Added newly announced pokémon in a temporary section.
- Google Analytics, to find out where people are coming from
- Misc tweaks, inc. XHTML compliance.

Random Cat Stuff
Some random cat pictures.

Did you ever wonder what happened to Data's cat, Spot? According to Memory Alpha, it was revealed in a deleted scene that Mr. Wolf inherited Spot after Data's death in Nemesis. She later helps Wolf with hunting down an alien infestation on the Enterprise. Wolf then declares her to be "a warrior." (Presumably, Wolf returns her to Data after his return - which occurs at some point before the events of the new Star Trek movie.)
Did you know: your art is available via RSS?
I got a message today from someone who was upset that his artwork was being displayed on my Pokémon Gallery Thingy. This got me thinking: How many people don't know that their artwork is available via RSS feeds from Deviant Art? Here's my gallery's RSS feed. I actually think this feature is pretty damn cool, but I guess not very well advertised on dA.
Here follows the message:
Please take my art down from your site I didn't give you permission to use it.

And my reply:
Hello,
Your message wasn't specific, but I assume you are referring to the pokémon search gallery here: http://jifish.co.uk/jifish/pg/

I also tried to video the AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle match. But the quality isn't so great:
