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:points: .
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

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

Feeling Watched?

Journal Entry: Sun Jul 13, 2008, 3:25 AM


If you're feeling like you're being watched by some strange irmel, chances are you've been hit by my "reorganizing" :giggle:

The deal is as follows: So far I have been watching everyone from my main account, `kuschelirmel, but it's getting to be waaaay too much to handle. Even the new message center (which I adore btw) isn't able to bring order to my kind of chaos ^^; home made chaos oh yeah hehe -- in any case, I decided to migrate everything stock and resources related over to this account: all the stockers I watch are being moved over, everyone I watch for their resource articles is going to be migrated and this way I hope I will be able to play a more active part in both the manip and the resource community again.

With the new message center, I can even easily prepare a few stock and resources articles with ease, but the ground work for that is that the resources don't get squashed by other art. I mean, one obviously looks for different things in a photo that was taken with stock in mind and one that is a stand-alone piece. And my way of getting through at least 300 to 500 deviations a day is to scan them rather fast for things that catch my eye. If I have to keep in mind what purpose I should be looking for when scanning I can just as well delete most without looking... So now I should be able to do both parts of my watch list more justice again. I hope ^^;

Restructuring will take a while because I can only do so much at a time, but I hope it will be done in a timely fashion.

:heart:
Jasmin

PS: I'm getting to all the requested stock from the contest during the next few days - I've got a presentation coming up tomorrow, so I'm not exactly my usual Sunday-self, if you know what I mean :giggle:


Technology & Nature Contest Winners
A big thank you to my judges $fourteenthstar, ~little-stock, `cosmosue and *FreakyBabe for jumping in at the last minute and helping me sort out the winners!

So, without further ado, the winners are:

The third place goes to

She wins:

The second place goes to



She wins:

Aaaand the first place goes to



He wins:
  • 6 months subscription sponsored by `kuschelirmel
  • One exclusive, custom made journal css - designed and coded by `kuschelirmel to the specifications of the winner for his/her exclusive use*
  • A 4x6'' print from `emeraldsugar's store sponsored by her
  • 1 exclusive stock or texture pack from =kuschelirmel-stock's scraps
  • 1 exclusive stock pack from !ro-stock
  • 1 exclusive stock pack from *lindowyn-stock

* the winner can either give me some art of his he wants included or give me a theme to work with - I cannot promise that the css will be ready fast as university has to take precedence. It does speed things up though if you are thorough when answering the note with questions that I will send you.

Thank you to everyone who participated - it was a great contest! :heart:


Stock/Resources Usage Rules in a Nutshell
Here you go (full rules can be found here):
  • Always credit =kuschelirmel-stock when you use my stock/brushes/textures etc. (please don't credit my art account as it leads to confusion over what is stock and what is not)
  • Please show me what you've done by giving me a link via note or comment.
  • Please manipulate the stock! This is very important if you want to use my resources commercially: you can't just change colours and sell it as your own
  • You also cannot redistribute the pictures as stock (manipulated or otherwise) without my expressed permission
  • For use on and off dA, commercial or non-commercial - it doesn't matter as long as you abide by the rules above
  • For Journal CSS templates there are some special rules, you can read them here


Exclusive Stock & CSS ~ CSS Commissions
If you look into my scraps, you'll find them filling up with exclusive stock packs and textures and soon also Exclusive CSS journals. These are meant to be used as prizes in contests and challenges.

List of contests:
  • none for custom css at the moment
  • `emeraldsugar is olding her second The Gift Contest and you can win exclusive stock from me (as well as journal features on my main account)

Please note that I am not doing requests for custom journals any more - only for friends or as contest prizes.
I am currently taking commissions for gallery and journal CSS designs - if you wish to commission me to do one for you, you can find more information here. Don't hesitate to contact me via note (here or at my main account) or e-mail (kuschelirmel<at>googlemail.com) so I can answer any questions you might have.


The CSS in this journal is my private CSS, it is not to be used by anyone but me and its images are not to be taken and altered either!
