I bought a cat-harness today.   I want to take the cat for walks.  Unfortunately, he's not as thrilled as I am about the purchase...   Strapped it onto him tonight and tried to get him to walk with me on the sidewalk.

Needless to say, my hands, wrists, and ankles are boasting a new collection of scratches.    

But there's still hope.  At least he didn't go Pinky on me...   I shall try again tomorrow.








`2dazed is running a contest in which you get to design an entire Profile for a Random Deviant -- and it's all about LOVE!   Check it out!  And maybe I'll even get you a backstage pass to the Fancy Ball that'll occur once the project concludes.

Deadline:  March 1st, 2009










Ambivalent to the Pageviews of others?

If you haven't read `TheRyanFord's journal entry about the matter and the new Browsing Option, you should!  Now you can decide for yourself whether or not you want to see them.  










According to the author of this dA News Article, a bunch of images were taken from deviantART artists without permission for a Facebook Application game called "Hammerfall".

I am not certain on most of the details for this one, but you should read the News Article when you have a moment.  Very informative.

Whatever you're doing right now, put it on hold and read this journal entry.  Too funny.  Many deviants have seen (or participate in) Original Character "Tournaments" in the past, right?

Here's an example, if you're not familiar with them:  [link]
^{(Lol, of course I used `Endling as an example... xD)}

Well, this project is a spin-off of that.  And the rules are just too amusing to overlook.    I'm strongly considering entering just because it sounds amusing!

Go and :whoreship: `PurpelBlur when you have a chance.  Here's dAmnIt Quote No. 13470 for your reading pleasure.  Or in the words of another deviant:

<the-unnamed21> Sounds a bit like a boat full of hookers.



P.S.  Wander into #GetStamped!








In the past, I've just posted a link to the artists I decide to "Feature" --- but I think I'm going to take it a bit further now and utilize some of these cool new Profile Page features.  

So!  From now on, my "Featured Artist" is going to get a feature in my journal as well as their own little module on my Profile Page.    And to kick off the change, I've chosen the lovely `Synfull to get the ball rolling!  








  This emoticon artist is probably one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet on deviantART -- and this is evident in her gallery as well!  Colorful and friendly with cheerful themes -- `Synfull's gallery is a museum of smiles.  `Synfull also hosts contests, projects, volunteers her time to make avatars for users, and runs a weekly Article Series entitled "So i herd u liek emotes".  Fun, charismatic, and an absolute doll to talk to:  Be sure to say 'Hi' to `Synfull the next time you see her wandering through a dAmn Channel.  










I've been MIA lately.    Lots of things going on, but this journal entry is already long enough.    P.S.  Don't mind those two earlier entries.  I'm going to work on those when I find myself with some time to spare.

Cheers, my lovelies!
