Hey folks. First and foremost, a big Thank You to all those who enjoy my work. To say it's been a pleasure creating content for our phones, and seeing others appreciate the work is a major understatement. It's like saying Shaquille O'niell and Yao Ming are "above average" in height; it just doesn't do it justice.
Since I haven't been around the forums much lately, I wanted to apologize, explain my absence, and give everyone a heads-up on what to expect from me before my occasional visits become permanent (or non-existent altogether).
So again, I am deeply sorry for my absence and lack of progress the last few weeks. All I can offer as an excuse is that the holidays and preparations for them have derailed any and all conscious efforts of trying to finish a few of the projects I started. Given that work this coming week is supposed to be another hectic week because of the New Year, I doubt I will be getting much out this weekend, either (then again, I may get a wild hair up my butt tomorrow, and decide to type up all the text remaining on the theming guide, you never know
). Whether it's due to stress from the holiday rush, or just plain procrastination, I've only lurked around the forums at best. Once work goes back to normal, however, I plan on resuming on my projects and getting them released.
As I see it, these are the loose ends I still need to tie up:
Just in case anyone is wondering, no I haven't gotten a new device as of yet, but I'm thinking it's time for a break, one way or another. I've done more than I ever thought I would for the TU community, and I'm proud of the progress I've made so far. And while I don't plan to quit until I've at least accomplished the goals I've outlined above, I have high hopes for myself this coming year, and it's gonna require that I go offline for months or more at a time.
Again, thank you for your interest. If you're still reading this, it's people like you who inspire me to do the best damn job I can, regardless of the pay or recognition. I love Android, and the co-operative community it promotes. May we cross paths again.

- The theming guide needs to be completed, namely the xml and updater-script sections, as well as pictures for the .9 editing section.
- I need to put my Sprint FG11 stock-rooted backup image into a flashable zip like I promised over 6 months ago.
I may also make it flashable from out-of-the-box stock, thanks to some work I did with/things I learned from niteNarmor. - My theme needs to be updated (mostly just cleaned up and one or two things added that I've learned since the last release or forgot in the previous release), and will include a version for CTMod 3.75, my stock image, and Megatron 6.1.0 (if it gets released before I poof, otherwise it'll be for 6.0.4).
