  • New Computer Case

    On Tuesday, I ordered my new computer case. The “A+ Blockbuster Storm” (Link to Amazon at the end of this post). Small Home Theather PC Case but instead of being for ITX boards, this can take a mATX and a full size ATX board. Here are some of the pictures of the case.

  • Quick Mock-up of the new VGIRE

    Earlier tonight, I talked about creating a new VGIRE and I said that I would do some mock up images of it. Here they are.

    I am going for a “social network-esqe, eSports, community” setup!.

    Status message for teams. Below would be a “pop-up” covering other status messages showing the details of the match. I used Counter-Strike as a good example for this!
    Same as above for a Starcraft style where there is a 1v1 situation. Since Starcraft is normally a “best of 3” match, I did it this way.
    This here is the comment section for that particular status. There would be a link to open the comments section and would slide down using jQuery.

    So they are just some VERY quick mockup that I created and hopefully…someday I can implement it in some shape.

  • New VGIRE?!

    So this evening, I was thinking to myself, Is a forum JUST enough for VGIRE, or could we do…MORE!

    Then I put pen to paper and started scribbling some ideas down on what VGIRE could probably be and what it can be when I put my head to it.

    I am not going to share all of the details just yet, but I will once I create some mock up images that I have in my head! This is the home now to the development of the new VGIRE.com

    hello@vgire.com or p@padraigfahy.com for questions!

  • My new case…

    …is coming tomorrow (or Monday)

    That’s if and when the case is delivered. And I will be posting pictures and all that here on PadraigFahy.com of me transferring the build from the old Fujitsu case to the new one.
