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.

Devious Journal Entryokay, i kinda have to say something....
some rumors have been going around that im homophobic (??) and i try to hide behind people, and im full of myself and that i hate you all and i manipulate you guys??????
im mean you can say what you want but let me tell you the real true me:
Hello, I am Emma i am 19 going on 20 in a few months. I am Pansexual (if you don't know what that is here is a link to the wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pansexuality) I am super bad at talking to people because of my anxiety and claiming to have a disability is not my way of shutting you guys out, I'm trying i really REALLY hard at making friends and being more social and im going to start being more social with you guys from now on this popularity kinda snuck up on me and i really had nothing to say because i was so "socially retarded" is a good way to put it. I have faith in my art, i use it as a way of expressing myself and paying homage to my favorite subject: creepypasta. man do i love creepypa

Bronies go nuts, and Nintendo Sucks?Equestria Girls
The trailer to "Equestria Girls" (the humanized MLP spinoff film) finally was released today. Aaaannnd everyone's freaking out. Again.
You know, it actually looks pretty decent. Bronies... please understand: I know you're a major unexpected demographic for the show. I know you enjoy seeing shout-out's become canon within the show, and appreciate how the creators do little things here and there for you. But... the show isn't made for you. This is not Cartoon Network and the target demographic isn't 25 year olds in college. You're a nice addition to the target demographic of little girls, but you are not the driving force behind MLP.
I don't want this to sound mean, but it needs to be said. This is where it becomes very important to understand the fine line between being a fan of the show and thinking that because you've invested so much energy into the show that you're entitled to things.
I'm sure the movie won't be as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It honest

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?)

Talk about coincidence! I just found a HUGE art thief on dA!! This guy is selling his items as prints, as well. I'll note you! Just take a quick glance and see what you think. I found what I BELIEVE to be the originals on flikr uploaded there before this guy uploaded here.

~RippedArtTaskForce Aug 4, 2007

I think I noted you on this one already?

~theshadowmistress Aug 4, 2007

Just received it! Thanks!

~theshadowmistress Aug 4, 2007

I haven't even heard of the places you've been putting up lately. Well, as bad as this all is, at least it lets people know where to stay away from!

~RippedArtTaskForce Aug 4, 2007

Exactly... that's part of the idea.. to get the word out there--don't mess with dA art, they will come after you.
Hugs,

LOL! I would love to see the looks on their faces when they're busted. I mean, it's the net. Everyone thinks they can hide on the net! HA! LOL
