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?)

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
(the song is Tenkuu no Canaria, from ToS *w*b)

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

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.

My artist for this journal is

This truly talented deviant is a new discovery for me and I am absolutely enchanted by his amazing books and other magical and mystical objects. They have a wonderful aura of being true and treasued possessions of some guild of wizards in a parallel dimension. Check out his other art as well, he's amazing with models masks and make-up as well!

I'd like to thank everyone who was involved with my latest DD and putting over 1000 messages into my message center during the week I was exploring the Texas hill country. It was such a wonderful surprise and a really lovely birthday gift to see so many folks loving my latest stained glass window.

I also see that I'm nearly bumping up against the big 200.000 pageviews here. So here's my offer: the first person to send me a screencap of my 200.000 pageview will get a Harry Potter Tarot deck sent to them. Right now my personal printed edition contains all the majors, all the court cards and the pips of each suit from ace to five. However, I promise that I will send them a second instalment as soon as I have drawn and printed the 6s to 10s, so in the end they'll have a full working deck.

Talking about Harry Potter - I was rather shocked to see the latest high-res picture of Narcissa for the upcoming (and sadly delayed) movie. Why the heck do they have to mess up the hair of all of the Black women? First they make Bella's look as if she'd just stuck her finger into a muggle electrical outlet, and now this skanky skunk look for the blond, straight-haired Narcissa. It does nothing for the actress who plays her, either, except make her look even older than she does anyway. How hard is it to find a pretty looking, young, blond British actress, people?

I guess all the folks who wrote philandering Lucius fanfics can take a collective sigh of relief. It's probably all true...

The vacation time was just lovely. We spent a week visiting caves, a wildlife park, stopped over at the San Antonio zoo to see the new hippo exhibit, hung out in Fredericksburg and sampled the local brew, climbed enchanted rock and ended up in the middle of a lake in a house boat for the remainder of the week. Perfect in my books!

Yeah, er... that Narcissa. Hmmm.. As if she would ever put black in her hair. Major screw up there. Major.

*Ellygator Sep 8, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

Yeah, I guess for the film makes it's all about the kids, the other actors and roles be damned...

~anniemare Sep 9, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

No kidding. I got to thinking about this the other day, and as if Lucius would have married anyone that did not have platinum blonde hair. The Malfoys have an image after all...

~TimBakerFX Aug 28, 2008 Professional General Artist

Congratulations on your DD

well deserved for sure. hey looky! it's me! hehe thanks for the feature

*Ellygator Aug 30, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

No problem. It was fun picking out my faves from your gallery. Glad you like it. And thanks for the DD!

*Riabhach Aug 26, 2008 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

lovely feature artist - a definite

and

a tarot set! MUST STALK ELLY! And that shot of Narcissa is HORRIBLE! WTF! She is BLONDE! I mean even Harry said so in Goblet of Fire! (rolls-eyes) - hopefully they delayed it so they could refilm all her scenes with blonde hair! Poor Lucius, they exchanged you for her! EEKKEK

*Ellygator Aug 28, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

I know. Why do they have to screw something up that is perfectly easy to do: read book, find pretty blonde woman, get on with it!

Would be cool if you can nab the tarot set! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

*Riabhach Aug 28, 2008 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

i don't think the movie makers KNOW HOW TO READ!! BLONDE - how hard is it??? UGH! and JKR let them do it - WTF???

Thanks! if not I will have to pester you when you get them for sale!

~TimBakerFX Aug 28, 2008 Professional General Artist

it's harder than you might imagine *mangiggle*

*Ellygator Aug 30, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

LOL! I guess that could be read on several levels...
