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?)

800 Points GiveawayHello all. As I've mentioned in the poll, I am going to make a small giveaway on the occasion of nearly 1000 watchers! Wooo!
There are 8 winners and 100 points for each to win. BUT the giveaway ends when the number of watchers reaches 1000.
RULES:

To enter, fave this journal and comment below that you've faved it. Then I will give you a number.

You don't need to watch me to enter. But please keep in mind that the giveaway ends sooner when
there are more watchers.

Your account must be at least 2 months old.

You can enter once only. No alternate/plz accounts.
I will choose winners with random.org.
♣ Good luck! ♣
Minor update: changed from 1111 to 1000 watchers.

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

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.

:thumb91663155:
Totally wonderful piece! Thank you so much Aigneis, I love it!

Contests:

!cryptic-sacrifice is running an awesome "Twisted Tales" contest. It is open to all digital work, has great prizes and doesn't have any stock use restrictions so it should be very easy for everyone to make an entry. She doesn't have a lot of entries at the moment so please go take a look! I've copies the rules and prizes below!

One example of a “Twisted Tale” is Shrek, Im sure you have all seen it. A beautiful princess waiting for her knight in shining armor to come and save her. Instead of a knight, she gets an ogre (but the ogre happens to be a lot more kind hearted then the prince. Never judge a book by its cover)! ^_^

Rules:

You must put in the description of your artwork that it’s for this contest, and explain how it suits the theme of “Twisted Tales.”

Bonds of SocietyWorking our lives away from day to day,
From the bonds of society never able to sway,
Though each of us dreams od making our break away.

The bonds we each fight hold us in place,
As the clouds we look at with upturned face,
But the bonds know no slack or no grace.

We work and work while we bide our time,
Our body and minds stuck in the grimem
While some of us fine solice for our souls in rhyme.

InspirationInspiration came to me at night.
Inspiration came with the dawn.
Inspiration has found me,
since the day I was born.

I don't know when it's coming,
or where I will be found.
But I beg it keeps searching,
as my emotions abound.

Sometimes it leaves me,
for weeks at a time.
But I won't panic or worry,
I know all will be fine.

Inspiration will return in due time.
Inspiration loves my soul and mind.
It would never shut them out
even though I may cry or shout.

Inspiration helps me live each day.
Never holds me up, never breaks my heart.
In me it will live to be my escape.
To express to the world my inner place.

The Flight of Nocturne She watched the young men enter the forest from the branch on which she sat as they cautiously moved along the dark forest path. Each holding a torch out in front and towing a horse behind they ventured towards ger seductive wrath.
Nocturne wasn’t particularly devilish this night, yet couldn’t resist such a seemingly vulnerable bunch. In her mind she had already gone through at least ten ways to separate them, and yet another twenty of how to proceed with each one. Her smile only grew as she listened to them speak.
The first young man warned the others: “Watch out boys, they say that the beautiful but deadly Nocturne lives
