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:

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:

Aaaand the first place goes to

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!

Ich glaube ich watche mit diesem gerade mal um die 50 und beim anderen bissel über 100 :lol:

Kann mir aber vorstellen, dass es da bissel chaotisch im message center aussieht.

Oha, dass kann fatale Folgen haben :D
Aber gut, wenn man noch nie aussortiert hat, kann sich da schon mal einiges anhäufen. Viel Erfolg beim aufräumen :giggle:
