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

Squirrel Print!!

Ardilla by ~faboarts

Loook!!

~WereKitty14v got me this Print!! I love it!! It just arrived yesterday!

Look how cute it is!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank youuuu!!

`Feetpeet's Engaged!

CONGRATULATIONS, KAYLA!!!

Our little ~DailyDeviants Manager is engaged! Go wish `feetpeet all the best!

Aww...!!

I'm so happy for you!

#Thumbsshare!

I was promoted to #Thumbsshare Member Status the other day! Thank you, thank you #Thumbshare moderators!

LOL, I think I've only posted my own artwork in there twice --- and it was because the moderators made me do it. (Haha, it was part of a game).

I like to post other people's artwork (and find/collect cool things to feature...

) -- and with new Member status, I can post even MORE thumbs!! And icons! For example...

[ *Redhag's Gallery ]

_{This deviant's work is absolutely beautiful! Acrylic, watercolor, prismacolor pencils, or simply normal ballpoint gel pens (as seen in the Iguana piece), this artist knows no bounds. And with under 2,000 Pageviews, ~Redhag's gallery is definitely in need of some lovin'!}

Five thumbs... and icons! How will I ever get used to it!

^{[Lmao, yes, this is cool enough to note in my Journal. Shh.]}

Contests Galore!

There are a bunch of contests in my journal's Sidebar.

I search through News Articles for contests every now and again, and list them in my journal sidebar. Go enter a few! Some of them are insanely cool -- like that Indian Mythology Contest! Check it out!

Phantom

There are few things as wonderful as the voice of the Phantom of the Opera...

Aside from sending chills down my spine and making me melt into a puddle of drool, the Phantom's voice helps drown out Christine's...

Lol, sopranos are not my cup of tea.

The person who portrayed the Phantom in the movie was... alright. Not amazing. -- definitely not amazing. Just ..."alright"...

Live stage performances, on the other hand, with a Phantom whose songs echo in your mind well after the show? Listening to his voice as it reverberates throughout the theatre... Wishing you could have him sing directly into your ear?

  Now that *IS* amazing.  It's one of the few times I can relate with a lead soprano character in a Musical.  Aside from being disfigured, the Phantom was a vicious murderer, but Christine was completely bewitched by his voice.

...I can't blame her.  I could sit and listen to him all day for weeks on end.  (...Well, *that* Phantom in particular, anyway...)  There are only a few vocalists that have that affect on me -- but this guy was definitely one of them.  Now if only I could remember his name...

I've never been a fan of the end of this musical...  It's quite obvious who my favorite character is...

Stamps!

LOL!!

It was determined by random chance!! xD

~dbestarchitect Aug 19, 2008

Hahaha!

~WereKitty14v Aug 18, 2008

Congrats on your membership promotion and the dev shirt prize you won!!!

OMG I am a total Phantom of the Opera FANGIRL

I LOVE that musical.

What was your favorite song?

~shadowed-light-waves Aug 18, 2008 General Artist

Thank you, thank you!

And wooo, Phantom!!

I love all of the songs, though! It's too hard to pick one! So I'm picking two. No, three. xDD Aaah, can I just pick all of them?

I love the main "Phantom of the Opera" theme song, the "Angel of Music" song, and the "Mascarade" song that plays on the Monkey Music Box. And a few bars from the Phantom's Opera (from the "Don Juan" song).

What about you?

~WereKitty14v Aug 19, 2008

My favorite song has always been 'The Phantom of the Opera'

I used to sing it in school with all my friends. We would have a great time placing parts and trying to reach the high note at the end XD.

~shadowed-light-waves Aug 19, 2008 General Artist

!!! Same here!!
But that note is sooooo high!

...I usually just whistle the highest note.

IT COUNTS!

!TheBigBadFish Aug 18, 2008

Awesome! Nothing I won is coming xD
Grats on the promotion too though

~shadowed-light-waves Aug 18, 2008 General Artist

I'm surprised it came so quickly!
