This was originally a random picture taken of the sun behind the clouds. With a little editing using digital tools, the results turn out to what you see. The original picture modified using Photoshop.

Experience the objects in Visual Basic
In this project, there are multiple types of objects used to experience how the objects work and what there purpose is. Some of the objects used are textboxes, group boxes, check boxes, and radio buttons. The program is designed as if you were a college student. Once again, its a simple program to experience how some of the objects are used in Visual Basic.
[ Experience some objects used in VB (P3) ]
If you haven’t seen the update on the Day, Date, and Time project in VB, check it out here on Github.
Of course, leave comments about the program. I welcome feedback. 🙂
Back to School. Back to Programming.
It has been a while since last posted on the blog. School has resumed and work is still plenty. I would like to share a few items, however, I will post here soon. Check out a project here on Github for starters…
Don’t waste a badly taken picture, turn it into an unforeseen digital artwork
What do you do when you have taken a bad photographic picture? Well take another shot at it of course until you get it right, or at least until you feel you got it right. There is another use for it, no, not for your background on your desktop, phone, or profile… you can edit the picture into something. Be artistic about it, use all the tools available. Don’t waste a potential picture (image) by deleting it, unless the picture turned out so bad it’s just not worth it. But then again, I had fun turning sometime so bad into something abstract. Give it a try sometime. You can modify an image so much that no one could have thought that was a terrible photo shot. What may have seemed a bad photographic picture, is now turned into a beautiful work of art. Use tools like Photoshop or Fireworks.
Type Conversion – A Python Programming Question
If your not savvy in computer programming, or specifically, savvy in Python, you probably would not be able to figure out the answer to this question. But the answer is simply:
“210” is a String. * means multiply, in which its multiplying in this case to an integer. Int is short for integer. Input means to take from a user’s entered value. The question the user is asked is, “Enter a number:”. In this case, the user enters 2. Since the user’s input is 2, and the math is a String * an integer; in other words, “210” * 2. The answer is 420. But not… “210” is a String, like words, not an actual number in this case. No its not 210210 either. Actually, what about the float? Well, if look at this as a math problem, you do all inner parenthesis first. The >>> doesn’t mean anything here other than awaiting a user’s command. The float means, simply, allow numbers from being solely integers to being values of decimals. So, its not just 210210, its actually:
float(210210)
Therefore, the actual correct answer is:
210210.0
Crazy right?
After going through a series of other questions while learning Python, I decided to start writing up the questions in a python script. This way I can test the code to see what it does before I give my answer. Yea, its sorta cheating, but not if your understanding why the code does what it does.

Visual BASIC, Average Weight Calculator
A Fitness Challenge – Team Weight Loss Program == Average Weight Calculator
This program, written in Visual Basic, was a completed class assignment. Its basically a calculator, simply to give you the average of the number values you enter into the prompt. There is a max of 8 entries, you do not have to give 8 entries. Canceling after a couple or few entries will still give you an average of the entries you entered.
This is published on Github for anyone to use and modify. The solution files are within the zip file for modifying, debugging, and releasing.
Please leave feedback on what you think of this simple program.
Post-Sunset, What happened to Mycanda previously?
This was the cover art that was applied to Mycanda on Twitter and Facebok back in late 2013 and early 2014 respectively. During that time I conceived the idea of Mycanda and what to do with it. However, I started it, but went off to doing something else during that time. Now, 2017, I decided to relaunch Mycanda and the ideas to do with it. This post-sunset closes that old chapter, and now we start anew.
You can find this image on Mycanda’s Gallery on DeviantArt. [See more by Mycanda on Deviantart here.]

Sarachchandra Theatre – Recolorfied!
The idea was to take an image I found of the Sarachchandra Theatre and modify it somehow. The results was an interesting “recolorfied” look. Original picture modified using Photoshop.

Artistic Flow with The Wind
From a simple snapshot of clouds and the top portion of the tree flowing with the wind. The picture was captured in the moment, and edited with digital artwork touches. Original picture modified using Photoshop.

Snow on the Beach
The original picture was taken on Wrightsville Beach during the winter storm Jan 28 – 29 in 2014, with a little editing of my own artistic taste added. Original picture modified using Photoshop.

Eleena – A concept idea of an illustration, 3D Model and Scene, Storyboard idea
This is an illustration I made while learning how to use Daz3D. Making this has sparked an idea to create more illustrations similar to this but obviously with an effective purpose.
