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: Mon Dec 26, 2011, 6:21 PM

Hey all! I hope you're Christmas's were good, sorry for my last journal entry going a bit weird haha, I'm actually typing this on the same computer, so hoping that won't happen again XD

My Christmas was amazing and busy!

We spent Christmas Eve setting up everything, wrapping last minute gifts, and putting together the playground that Santa got for Scarlette. It's a good thing Kat's next door neighbour, Ben, came around cuz otherwise we probably wouldn't have got the swingset done ;u; Guys understand this stuff so much easier.

Anyway, we tried to go to bed at midnight, but then Scarlette woke up and me and Kat spent the next two hours trying to get her back to sleep. We got back to bed at 3am, and then Emma's stupid pet mouse kept me up for another hour >A>;
We had to get up at 7am to start the pork roast ;3; which doesn't seem fair considering we don't even eat meat haha

First thing Scarlette discovered was the playground outside, which was adorable, we got lots of photos of her playing on it with Bella(kid next door). Then we all opened some more gifts

I got a remote controlled tarantula! Which I thought was pretty neato haha 8D

Then our parents came around to Kat's and we all had Christmas lunch, Nannon sat to eat with us too, she gets along with my dad really well XD

More present unwrapping happened after that

Then me and Nannon played with henna, we'd already done so the night before as well, but she wanted to have henna all down her back before she met her bestie

She went to Sydney that night to meet her best friend, Nikki, they met online, ahhhh I'm super happy she got to go meet her ;3; I'm sure they've been having an amazing time!

What ellllssseeeeee hmm ouo

I don't usually do journals on dA anymore, so this is a bit odd for me lol, I just felt like I should because it's xmas and stuff xD
There's other stuff I wanna write about but idk if I want to bother dA with my personal issues ouo;

Oh, I guess I could take this time to say sorry for being so bad with my inbox lately haha, uhm, I haven't been at the comp much at all lately, so answering messages on dA has been a tricky thing to keep up with, ahhhg, I haven't even had the patience to look through my messages properly yet >A>

I'll probably make another journal on nabyn later- I'm half considering getting a LJ account to use properly as a journal, I don't feel like I should be keeping blogs on art sites :c idk why, I feel like it's hard for me to find a place online that I'm comfortable doing journals on.

I guess I could start doing them on here again.

idk yet
Let me know what you guys think?

For new years I plan to go into town with Blob Kitty and watch the fireworks ^_^ It should be nice, and then my friend Nash is throwing an after new years party the next night, so I'm so going to that too C:
What do you guys have planned?

I hope ya had a good New Years <3 Mine was. I had all my friends over, even Lucas, til midnight, and we called Joe, too, so he wouldn't miss out on bringing in the new year with us ;D Dori threw icecream at me and got it all over my sweater, I'm still mad at the buttface for that >_> But whatever ;D It was awsome, all that matters :3}

~askdafl Dec 27, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

I'm really glad you had such a nice Christmas. c: My wasn't quite as eventful, but it was decent, and I got all I asked for and more, so I was pleased about that. My dad and I just drove down to the city to visit family today though and we'll be here until Saturday because I have to go back to school Monday. /cry

But it's fun being down here because we do A LOT of shopping. ♥

~BreezyBuizel Dec 27, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

*Yo-Angie Dec 26, 2011 Hobbyist Filmographer

I'm thinking I will. Though you know I'll make a new account for it haha. I've actually been thinking that LJ would be easier to use for journals.. probably because that's kinda what it's made for
