THANK YOU EVERYPONY WHO JOINED :'D I DIDN'T EXPECT SO MANY

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

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.

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 13, 2007, 9:34 AM

Mood: Peaceful
Listening to: Ingenting - Kent
Watching: Everybody loves Raymond
Playing: Final Fantasy X
Eating: Homemadde pizza
Drinking: Ice Coffee

So, !nana-tilde-asterisk tagged me like a long time ago, so now I thought I was about to do this thingy. x3

Take three songs to describe youself! Link them to your journal so that everybody can listen/watch them. Copy the text blah, you know the common shit already. And click the link to download the song, at the bottom of the page that pops up!

And Marit is like...!!

Play Dead - Björk [link]
i play dead
it stops the hurting
i play dead
and hurting stops

This song is so frail, and I can totally relate. Sometimes I just, well I don't play dead, but I ignore things. I know it sounds terrible, but sometimes I just hate humanity for what it is; greedy, cruel and hopeless. And although there are a lot of good stuff out there as well, some times I just want to crawl in and ignore everything, and fall into my world of fantasy because such a world is not as cruel as this one.

400 slag - Kent [link]
Och som ni som lekte när ni var barn
Du förlorade ditt krig, du står ensam kvar
Och ingen kommer till ditt försvar
Så du står givakt med din rygg så rak och tar fyrahundra slag

Translated; 400 strikes (I think). To me, this song is about being alone, to stand proud even though no one else is on your side. And even though your intentions have been true and good, no one appreciates it. This reminds me of me, since I've been an outcast some years of my life, and although I have good friends, I feel that some times I stand alone, but not necessarily in a bad way.

2nd Law - Tom McRae [link]
Tell all my friends
I have gone to the moon
Tell all my friends
I will write them soon
And tell them
If you see them
That I am better left alone
'Cause I'm living up here where the air is thin
And where gravity don't bring you down
Yeah I'm living up here and I'm watching your universe cooling down

It seems Marianne knows me the best, even more than myself. Yes, this is me. This is me more than anything. Some years ago, I had a rough time, and I listened to this, and related absolutely. And I still do, but perhaps not in a bad way. Many times I feel alone with my ideas and thoughts, and some times I want to be alone. I can't spend my entire time with others, I love my time alone as well. I love where I can by myself, and dream myself away. Thank you, Marianne. <3

Revolt III - Kent [link]
Som om Jag bryr mig
Så ökar vi igen
Jag är fartblind, kriminell
Du är aktuell Du bränns
Som om Jag bryr mig
Som om Jag bryr mig

One song too much, I know, but I just had to take this too. I love Kent, you can tell, probably because I relate to their songs that much. And translated this one will be 'Like I care'. No, I really don't care. I don't care about the war in the east, I don't care about morons killing each other, I don't care about politics, I don't care about common knowledge. I care about things that are important to me, not things that people think I should care about.

Mariiiit! :3 Popped in to say that your giftart IS getting done.

I didn’t forget you! Your characters are beyond fun to draw, I swear. ;0; Though I’ve had to hide my sketchbook, just a little too much manlove for my parents’ eyes! xDDD <3 I will definitely get it done by Christmas, since art shall be churned out like crazy to meet that deadline. >.o And I’ll be on a rooooll!

Just wanted you to know I really, really didn’t forget! X3 *drive-by love*

~DazedPink Nov 20, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

Sorry for the late reply-ish!

Ooooh, I feel so panda-loved. x3 I thought maybe I could send the Mandy pic for you this christmas, with some small stuffs?

~MandyPandaa Nov 21, 2007

Oooh!~

That'd be awesome! x3 If I can , maybe I can send you some stuffs too? This pic and giftart I did you a while ago... <3 I can't let you pay all that shipping by yourself! :3

~DazedPink Nov 21, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

I would be happy to give and receive.

I shall see if I can find the first Mandy that I did draw for you as well, she should be somewhere... xD;

~MandyPandaa Nov 26, 2007

Quick question Marit~! X3 I'm divvying up Christmas gifts, and some of my friends have allergies/parents that do not like smelly stuffs, so I must ask, do you like incense? : D

~DazedPink Nov 26, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

Incense? Sure. : D But I have nothing to keep it up with. x3;;
(But not musk!! x__x *died the last time she tried it*)

~MandyPandaa Nov 26, 2007

Oh, I got a little thingy that has a holder~ x3 *spoiling all the gifts* Never fear! xD

Mmkay, just wanted to make sure I didn't kill anybody on xmas 8D;;

~MandyPandaa Nov 23, 2007

If you can't, it's no problem! x3 I KNOW I drew a goddess for you a while back, but hell if I know where it went... xD;;;

I'm going out to Borders and Hot Topic this week, so I'll pick out some pretty things for yoooou! ^-^ Gah, I loff Christmas shopping.

!nana-tilde-asterisk Nov 13, 2007

Nyah~! O__o;;
Seriously. I shrieked back as I saw my name in huge pink letters. xD;;; I was like... "uwah!! .... .__.;;" .. xDD;;
<3~*

So. My name thingie aside~. 8D

I couldn't help but gigglesnort, but "Like I care". ... that is my Marit. <3 (you know how I mean this, I hope. D: )
You have this laid back and straight forward personality and I do like your honesty very much. There aren't enough honest people in this darn world. I mean, if I think someone is an arse, I also let them know.. I mean, that's nicer than ass-crawling and the following back-stabbing, no? -3-;;
So. And I think that the songs reflect your personality very well. Good to see you know yourself quite a bit. 8D;; ~~~ xD

And! Haha! I knew exactly that there would be Björk, Tom McRae and Kent. D: *psyche~* O_o;; .... xD
I was pondering, if you'd add Muse as well, but I see you did not. xD;;

Mhmm.. I was also thinking, you'd maybe choose "2nd Law". ^^ ;;

Luvvers mah Marit~! <3~*

~DazedPink Nov 13, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

You know me too well girl.

I'm a hopelessly careless person. >_<; You know, I know... And I reallyreally wanted to add a song by Muse (I was this close to adding Hysteria), but I didn't, donno why. x3;; And '2nd Law'. Girl... seriously, that song is in my heart. I had a period of time some years ago when I totally related to it, and I still do somehow. How did you knoooow!? Now I can't take it, I need to switch it out with 'Ghost of a shark'. XD;
Luv you!
