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.

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

CLAMP Photoshoot '09

Journal Entry: Tue Feb 3, 2009, 10:45 AM

Spirit of CLAMP

_{This was fated. Nothing in this world happened by random. Everything is...hitsuzen.
--Yuuko}

_{I normally do a journal entry for each con, but there was so much going on at the CLAMP photoshoot at Ohayocon this year that i decided to give it a whole journal entry by itself.

We almost missed each other because the set up for the photoshoots were poorly organized.  Some people thought it was around 3 when the forums said it was around 1.  The timing wasn't the worst part cuz the location was a bit confusing itself, the atrium stairs was not a good place to meet up since it was mostly crowded.  But nonetheless!  We all made it and the shoot one of the most awesome photoshoots i've ever been to.

There was a variety of people from different shows!

Project cosplay participators:

This isn't even all of the group!!! People kept showing up and leaving throughout the shoot!  I think we stayed together for like 2 hours! It was so much fun!

photo by ~CyberNinja

A close up of the group shot!  I love how we put our staffs/swords over Sakura's head.

photos by Michelle ma Belle

Another close up, i just love how we all fitted together!

photo by ~Rakuen42

This is what I wore for the CLAMP shoot.  I decided to pull this outfit out of retirement for ~Maya-aya-chan. I tried to get a different Hikaru outfit ready, but i ran out of time.  It will definitely be ready for the next con.  Say goodbye to the Celestial outfit, i doubt it would've lasted another con.

photo by ~CyberNinja

We had literally ran into everyone and glomped on each other.  Once the glomping was done we all brainstormed to try and come up with some ideas for photos.

The Ashura was [link]
I did bring my Kendappa costume to the con to cosplay with her but it was way to cold so i ended up not wearing it D= now i wish i had haha. [Ashura actually stole my Kendappa pants for her costume so she could be more warm lol!]

*NsomniacArtist Mar 18, 2009 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

I understand that. It was FREEZING! Luckily our group had a hotel room on site. A lot of our costumes were just small dresses. One night me and a friend went out to find something to eat and ended up walking 7 blocks in the cold. we were pretty stupid but it was definitely one of the best sandwiches we had XD

Its getting warm here. Yays! I hope it stays this way
