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?)

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

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

You outta know the drill by now :3

But I also wanna feature this:

BECAUSE IT'S ADORABLE

Here's a journal for all the gals and guys who watched me in MAY. So if you added me to your watch list in MAY as a way of saying thank you, you get featured here with a pic from your gallery

*ADDITIONAL*

1) Thease features are based on pictures in a persons gallery that I like and catches my eye. It may not be YOUR favorite but if I like it gets featured

2) I try not to pick any of the following: Recoloured official artwork, coloured screenshots, collaborations*, desktop screenshots, wallpapers made using official imagery*, coloured lineart from another artist*, PLZ accounts, art made using bases*.
(*if the gallery contains nothing but art like this, then I will feature it)

3) Galleries that completely break DA rules (stolen work etc) will not be featured. If I accidently post an image that you think is stolen/traced etc please let me know and I'll either remove the offending deviant or swap the chosen picture for an original piece of work.

4) Deviants with empty galleries, galleries the are full of screenshots/motivational posters etc or who have been banned/deactivated their accounts since watching me will not be featured at all. This is to save time and space. Sorry ;_; However if you get some original work up and this journal is still on my front page, let me know and I'll pop your name and artwork in here

AmbulanceAntonio and Romano were working on an ambulance and at the moment they were driving a man to the hospital. "Oi, Bastardo. What's a six lettered word for Endowed?" Romano asked as he was making his puzzle. "Genius, just like you my little tomato." The Spaniard replied from behind the steering wheel. But the beeper went off from the man they were transporting meaning his heart stopped. "Oh, no …." The Italian said annoyed as he grabbed the defibrillator and gave the old man a shock before tapping the cheek off the man till he woke up and continued with his puzzle.

Later that day Antonio and Romano were having there break and Romano was st

Summer HeatHeat! Heat! Ye overwhelmeth me!
Leave me be! Get 'way from me!
Come forth cool winds!
Blow thine cheeks!
Burst forth and come overtaketh me!
I call ye be! Swirl roundeth me
And come to help mineself be free
Free oh, free from this miserable torridity.
What is this? This sweltering breeze?
I feel the sweat springing forth from me!
Get away! Get away!
This hot, hot rash takes over my being.
Water! Water! I call out to thee,
Come to me, so I'll be free.
Icy waters lapping my feet,
Chilly drink in hand soon will meet,
My body so cool, appetizingly sweet,
No more fever to ever plague me.

It was a beautiful day and everypony were making the last preparations for the great earth-pony-day festival tomorrow. The earth-pony-day was a special day to honor all the hard work of the earth ponies to preserve peace and harmony in Equestria and for many other reasons.
When Twilight Sparkle heard that even Princess Celestia and Princess Luna were participating she knew that this was her great chance and that tomorrow all her dreams will come true.

For many years Twilight had studied anything about magic and even Princess Celestia had taught her some things. After all those years she became the strongest

I'm so glad and happy that you featured my little drawing ^w^
Yup, I admire you so much, you know about the Rayman world even more than me, but of course you're like a model for me.
I enjoyed making this little gift for someone special like you, maybe I'll make for gifts soon.
For now, stay awesome and maybe... maybe some day, I'll be a great artist and Rayman fan as you.

*raygirl Jul 3, 2011 Professional Filmographer

*does a little squee dance* OMG, you're such a sweetieface it's not even funny. I'm so flattered that in some small way my weird little gallery has inspired you. Hun you're already a great Rayman artist, your linework and colouring is so neat and no one draws the characters the way you do, you don't have to aspire to be a dork like me cause you're already kickass

~Gav-Imp Jul 3, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

You're joking? You're great! As you see me great too, so in that way me hust agreed even if we're modest.
I have an idea that involves you 8for Rayian form) in a future gift, it will be so funny but cute that I hope you like that too. The only thing that I can said is that involves my Rayman story (Rayman 5). See ya!

~Gav-Imp Jul 3, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Ah, sorry for the gramatical errors

hust is "must". And for is "your"
Sorry xP

~ShopiStar Jul 2, 2011 Student Digital Artist

Whoa! You featured Gaby's pic

You'll make her so happy! You have no idea how much she admires you <3

*raygirl Jul 2, 2011 Professional Filmographer

Well what can i say? I was blown away by her kindness in drawing it, it really made me happy
