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?)

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=

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.

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

Journal Entry: Tue Jan 8, 2013, 5:11 PM

This will probably be the last "personal" journal or something for a while... I am trying to cut down on those since I'm getting older and frankly i feel i am getting older [weird]

for those of you who still are hearing rumors about my opinions.

i love everybody equally, no matter who you are, what you look like, or what your choices are. everyone deserves the same amount of love and respect.

and even though i may not show it, it is the one thing i have tried to work hard on about myself, i cannot be perfect, and i will falter when it comes to this, but it is really important for me to have this viewpoint on everyone. so yes i know i have obviously made many mistakes in the past, but each time it happens i try to recognize it and it helps me and motivates me to try and get to this goal, even if it just a little. i know i can seem like a bad person but you know now i want to be better.

that is all you need to know about me.

*zavraan Jan 11, 2013 Hobbyist Filmographer

* GREG HUG *

Don't give a darn thing they say! A human is MENT to have bad traits. Hell...what is it with these people they don't understand?
At first sight, you're and awesome artist who is willing to show her talent and has a unique style. But when you do SOMETHING slightly bad, then you're the most horrible person in the world. :/

Yeah right. NEWS FLASH.
All artsts grow UP. They have to get to colige * or not * and they have a life to live. They can't give their life to the internet. And besides, having bad traits is good. Can you imagine a world with ONLY good traits? then you're gonna complain about how PERFECT you are. XD

"You're so perfect it's annoying"

Me: Oh right~ And having autism is also a crime huh?
Believe me, I am not always bright and happy as my sona Laya. I am actually quite cranky and piky most of the time. I am not the most acceptible person in Holland. And I am very timid. Very.Timid. ._.

And besides, if we met in real life, I'm also gonna expect the bad side. Because I don't want to become so angry anymore. When you meet someone nice, expect his/hers bad traits and forgive them. Anger takes over.

And I don't give a fart about clothing either. XD I hate beautifull over dressed clothing style actually. When a girl walks up to me and sais: Why arn't you wearing a dress?

I would go rude and say: Bitch...please...do I NEED to be beautifull???? Just for you???

I'M FABULOUS. AND URNAM IS ALSO.

Anyway, what you just wrote here, I have the same. When I turned 15 and reached 16, I wanted to improve myself BY myself. I realized that my behaviour was a little overeacting. So I looked at my bad traits and improved.
And so, I am now the loving, caring and inspirational Laura today. c:

We all love you Urnam!

Sorry for the loooooong wise comment. ;W; I have this thing willing to cheer my friends up. XD

*Xurnam Jan 11, 2013 Student Digital Artist

i LOVE your ability to think so differently and uniquely than i've ever seen anyone think like before... and you have the best way of making people feel accepted...

aw, zav you're such a wonderful person

now that i AM turning 16 i want to overreact less and stuff... it really is the best thing to do for now.

thank you so much ;O;

*zavraan Jan 11, 2013 Hobbyist Filmographer

AH. Y U SO NICE? ;W;

Naw. <3 I do my best. I don't want to see people sad. You deserve my wisdom!

~CsioSoft Jan 10, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

i understand! you don't have to worry, if that's the case! bad moments happen and pass! it always happen!

~WolfStar991 Jan 9, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

No one is perfect urnam <3

~Roguedome Jan 9, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

I remember I had this same problem, an all you can really do is pray. Nobody is perfect, (except Job, cause God called him so) and If they were, I would be freaked out... 0.o

I will pray for you my friend!

~SilverTheTwilight Jan 9, 2013 Hobbyist Filmographer

Nobodys perfect. Its ok if you make a mistake, you can only learn if you make a mistake after all. And I don't think you are a horrible person, not at all! So, chin up! We are all behind you!

~TuVaisDeVela Jan 8, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Well if you didnt make any mistakes then i would be scared... Youre human, im human, nobody is perfect. BUT you belive in forgiveness and so do i. Therefore i think all youre friends, watcher, family, ect forgive for whatever mistakes youve done.

~Thesilverdragoness Jan 8, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I'm 100% positive that everyone experiences this sometime or another. While we may forever try to work on improving ourselves, we'll never be perfect.

Hey, love who you are already. I mean, whenever I'm stressed, unhappy, and/or felling down and I come across your profile, I suddenly stop and seem to rethink myself and calm down. I don't know why, but that's what happens. After a while of running around your gallery and journals and stuff, I am much better than what I was. I'm not joking about this, it's true.

So be who you are, cause you're an amazing person!
