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.

1000 Point Giveaway!Okay enough of joining giveaways.....it's time to host one!

!!!!!

But of course there are always the rules......

Please please please fave the journal!

Want another entry?
:bulletgreen:You can :+devwatch: me to get your name entered TWICE! EDIT:For those who are ALREADY watching me you can still earn additional entries by faving my art! Each fave gets you ONE extra entry! (Max number of entries: 3)
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?)
Draw a

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

Merry Christmas to everyone!

Journal Entry: Sat Dec 24, 2011, 1:40 AM

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas! Have a great time with your family and loved ones!

What are your plans for these days? Going out to have dinner or do you stay home, prepairing a wonderful meal for your family?

Are you in Christmas mood? I am somewhat not, there´s no snow (it has 10°C out there these days! It feels like October/autumn weather!) and part of the family is ... weird, they don´t care about us ... lol, so on Christmas Eve it´s all about my lovely bf and me. I can´t wait to prepair dinner! Today´s supposed to be something special. I want him to forget about his stupid family and be happy and what better way is there than to have awesome food (he loves good food, loool)!

... and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Do you have some New Year's resolutions?

How do you celebrate New Year's Eve?

Going out, having party, or staying home and watching some movies? Ha, I remember, as a kid we always looked through the TV Guide and watched ALL 'Dinner for one' reruns that aired on that day! What about you? Do you have a special New Year's Eve ritual?

Fireworks? Do you have fireworks on christmas? Awesome O_O
We only have them on New Year's Eve, lol XD

Oh, yeah, we had some great food and nice gifts as well, what about you?

...you know, I just asked more people and I guess we're kind of alone in this fireworks thing LOL...not many said they had them too... so I guess it is not so normal to have fireworks during Christmas around the world n__nU. Yeah, we throw fireworks during the December holidays. That means Christmas and New Year. We also celebrate the Three Magi/Kings, since it is a tradition inherited from Spain. But that's not a day of fireworks, even if it it also celebrated.

Here in Argentina we have no law against selling fireworks to people, so everybody buys. The result is 00:05, everybody is outside making noise LOL. They'd start 00:00... but they have to toast or open gifts first XD~ The wonderful thing about that is you go outside and you see fireworks along the sky (except in fire hazard high risk zones, where fireworks are prohibited since we're enjoying summer here). The bad thing about it is there's always deaths and people injured because of it. And well, lost pets too.

After growing up too used to fireworks (and I love them), I think I'd feel sad if there's no fireworks during Christmas. Aww~ =__= but it seems it is the common thing in the rest of the world n__nU...

The gift and food thing sounds great!

what did you prepare for dinner and what did you get as gifts?

I also had great dinner (LOL argentine meat XD) and I got a shirt and money as gifts

We celebrate the Three Magi as well. Kids dress like them and go from house to house and people donate money for the poor. The kids also get lots of sweets. i did that as a kid too, it was fun, lol.

Ah, right, there´s summer at your place right now, I kinda envy you, it´s so cold over here and we don´t even have snow... it´s too warm for that (like 10°C). The weather acts as if it is autumn XD'''

I made a great pepper roast beef for my bf, with a scallop as a starter. I had chicken with salad and a onion soup first.
My bf deceided we wanted to have something different from the duck, so he got the roast beef XD
What did you eat for christmas?

I got some money too, bought mangas with it, yay, and I also got some mangas from my mum (lol, she found my Amazon wishlist). From my sis I got some bath soap, lol, but she hates me anyway... XD'''

I like fireworks as well and this year we´ll stay at home on New Year's Eve. This is a good place to watch the fireworks XD
In Germany all adults can buy fireworks too. And the buy a lot!
