MERP Roller


I dabble in an pen and paper RPG called MERP (Middle Earth Role Playing) Hahaha. And on our last adventure a few programmers in the group decided to have a friendly competition to make some quick digital dice rollers. This utility simulates the rolling of two D10 dice to give you a 1-100 total. It tracks all your rolls in a database along with the time and date of the roll (important on 3-4 day adventures). It clearly shows your overall average at the bottom as well as an average for your last 10 rolls for a quick review of how well you are currently rolling. Large text makes proving rolls to friends (and enemies) across the room possible. Future plans exist for expanding the utility to: - Handle critical rolls more effectively - Organizing rolls by game - The ability to delete rolls - The ability to manually add rolls which are made with actual dice

Finance Management Tool


After finding that Quicken® and Quickbooks® were simply not what I was looking in finance management, I decided to develop my own system by which to organize my business income. It allows for the adding of clients, invoices, payments, and uses that information to calculate gross and net income for individual years or all years. It also stores information about clients specific to your business. For example, mine stores FTP data, client contact information, links to databases and helps aggregate other pertinent things.

CBH - RSS Quick Adder


One day I decided that I needed a way to aggregate ideas, thoughts, web-links and anything else that I may come across no matter where I was. I realize that blogs are often used for this so I set up a quick site that would allow for me to type into a few fields to quickly post to an RSS/XML file.
CBH Viewer 1.0


A site I made for showing files (mostly images) in an OS like view based on the folder structure of the host.

I cannot however, take credit for some internal layout or the cover design.

I had this idea at around midnight one night and stayed up until dawn to code it. It is an idea I wish to take further later, but for now it remains an experiment. My goal is to use it as a management system or perhaps a CMS. But first I need someone to want it in there site... or I need more free time.

Play with it for a while... and remember, no flash.
