Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000:points: .
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine  that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam  deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

IMPORTANT: Please be sure to state what you did
Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Advice and TutorialsSo this First Advice and Tutorial Journal will be on General Anatomy and Such. The second will be up to you so please comment below in what you think the next Advice and Tutorial Journal should be on.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

Fireworks!

Journal Entry: Tue Jul 3, 2012, 7:21 PM


Logged out for a little bit, just came back from a walk on the beach.  Beautiful outside where I am!  Full moon, nice temperature and was listening to the undeniAble (chipmunk album) very nice! (though sadly it seem like I'm the only one that likes to walk on the beach)

Some people nearby are already shooting up fireworks (a little early XD)  My poor dogs are not liking this LOL.  

Anyway, don't forget my Alvittany Drawing Contest!
[link]
There is still time to get drawings in!  (until midnight US EAST COAST time on July 10th)

Not too excited about the new look given the Chipettes on that new single that came out.  I don't mind the old style or other styles, but I much prefer CGI style.  (Still praying for an Alvittany-filled AATC 4 [CGI style])  

I don't get it.  I've been pretty good I think, why do I keep having bad days and weeks?  *sigh* big fight with my family over the internet usage (I don't think I spend THAT much time on here, do I?)  Anyway, had to bargin my way to still be able to use the internet (but only if I do 4 hours of chores each day)  Greeeaaat.  My life, sucks.  I'm sorry, but some people "love life."  I hate my life.  

For my friends in the US, anyone have fun plans for tomorrow (US Independence Day)?  I'll try to get on during the day.  But I'll probably be on in the evening at some point.  

Miss chatting with you all, especially my friend that blocked me *sigh*
