		<title>Creating a video for YouTube using AVIdemux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before you can do anything, you need to head over to the Avidemux homepage (http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/)and download, then install, Avidemux. The site has installer applications for Windows, Linux and Mac.
So, when you first load up Avidemux you&#8217;ll see:

First we load in a video file by going to File &#62; Open (or click the Open button) and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Riverside video now on YouTube</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When creating the Riverside painting (shown left) I set up a camera, on a tripod, and recorded the entire painting process from start to finish.
Unfortunately, YouTube only allows ten minute videos, so I&#8217;ve sped up the video so you can watch the full 70mins in only 7mins.
If you&#8217;d like to see how I did a [...]]]></description>

		<title>New oil painting: Riverside</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, I finally got off my lazy ass and did a new oil painting.
I also recorded the entire painting process which I&#8217;ll hopefully be uploading to YouTube shortly, as a ten minute video, although it&#8217;s a biiiig file as I&#8217;ve kept it at 640 pixels wide rather than the usual teeny tiny 320 pixels wide. [...]]]></description>

		<title>ink drawing complete &#8211; finally!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Finally managed to complete the ink drawing I was working on. It seemed like such a good idea at the time, but when you realise that it takes about three hours to cover about one quarter of the A3 page with a 0.1 pen, the novelty quickly wears off! But I managed it. I reckon [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
In this tutorial I&#8217;m going to show you the easiest way to create a speech balloon, sometimes called a speech bubble, in GIMP.
Left is the panel I&#8217;m going to put a bubble/balloon in. In case you&#8217;re wondering, the white area is going to be covered by my balloon.

First, we add the text, so click the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Working on a new ink drawing, A3 size!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I really enjoyed doing the (now sold) ink drawing I called &#8216;House by the Lake&#8217;. I&#8217;ve now started a v2.0 of said drawing using A3 watercolour paper and a 0.1 Liner pen. It&#8217;s going slowly, but surely:

Although I have to admit, I&#8217;m dreading that big tree on the left and the dark background. It&#8217;s taken [...]]]></description>

Me.
But now I have two! My first official (non-me) fan was my good friend Erin, but please join my fan page to get all sorts of I-don&#8217;t-know-what-yet goodness. Click that RonnieTuckerArt Facebook link on the right-hand side.

		<title>Bonanzle bonanza!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the cost of an eBay auction continually rising, I&#8217;m giving Bonanzle a try. I&#8217;ve added a widget to the left column, replacing the eBay one (for now) and put up several items for sale. Most of the items are around the $60 with $10/15 P&#38;P for the UK/rest of the world.
