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

.
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.

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?)

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

Bye-bye,

Nintendo STEALS Money!Since this has been going around lately, I should probably give my two cents. Basically what it amounts to is that Nintendo has filed Content ID info of their games with YouTube. What this means is that if you upload gameplay video of a Nintendo game, YouTube will automatically monetize that video, put ads on it, a link to where to buy the game, and take the money generated from that video and give it directly to Nintendo. People who do "let's play" videos are, naturally, pissed off because they want to be earning money off their videos, so they're calling Nintendo "thieves" for doing this.
I can see both sides to the story. I can see Nintendo as a corporation wanting to exercise control over their properties. On the other hand, "let's play" videos can often help new gamers find games they otherwise wouldn't have tried.
But here's the thing: Nintendo isn't the first company do this. Both Microsoft and Ubisoft do it already. YouTube has also had a long history of having music videos and

Gorgon and the Heroes

by Giulio Aristide Sartorio

journal entry

My thanks goes out to the Helpdesk people for getting my CSS back in my journal and collections etc.

As for other news, snow is still here and green has not come, but soon it will. A lot of changes personally since the die off last Fall. I've been through almost my entire library of art paying close study, re-working pieces, thinking about my path, have not been producing much new work but feel the reflection time will benefit me in new work this spring. Also thinking more seriously about learning to paint better.

Physically I've got a completely new body since Autumn almost need a new wardrobe, likely in the best shape of my life I feel a new health and vitality which I'm sure will energize me in my study and work and so on. More mountain climbing and late night reading both, better balance between a strong mind and body now I think that is important.

Have had, and still have, an emotional season. The first time I've ben emotionally overwhelmed since I was a child and my father died, when I was helpless to change things and unprepared to deal with how I felt. Coming to terms with all that i've felt is difficult especially when it has far from over, I wake up every morning in love as I have for months, despite how unfruitful that love has turned out to be. Worse the distance now makes me worry i may have driven away a friend for good, which is the only thing that seriously hurts me.

So, winter has been a transitional and growing phase as all phases should be. With bloom of spring hopefully I'll have new art, even more strength, and some peace in my heart.

Outside dA's goodies

Yes? The menu just uses a simple HTML list to order content, my menu looks like the list above when you strip the css off. If you know how to write html lists you could set it up however you want and i could just write the css to change it into a menu, might be best that way. Or I could do the list but get me links and a full set of content so I understand what has to expand and where

`Helewidis Apr 21, 2008 Photographer

in "faq" it's just one link - the same for in need of our luuuurve

in the features subcat caleed others I'll also need a 1, 2, 3... if the html is simple I can do it myself later when I add or remove something, but I need something already done, so I can set it as an example of what to do... you know, try and error are my best friends!

forget the outside dA's goodies and gimme the css and html syntax for the big thumbtable that you have in order to present a photo from outside dA, and while you're on it gimme the same for the featd clubs, people, etc... I'd love to try it in my current journal!

yes, what I'd love would be a journal like yours, only in reddish and with a different image on the right, but I understand if you do not have time!

I'll give you the links for this tomorrow!

danke schon!

`wroth Apr 22, 2008

Ok I emailed you a version of the menu and will get to the boxes when I get time.

Yes I love to make CSS but it takes so much time, i promised myself i won't do any more for free because i need to focus on paying work etc. If you happen to be filthy rich and willing to pay me some obscene fee I'll whore my design skills out to you

But if not I really don't have time
