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

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Design Contest WIN 4000 POINTS, 20$ AND MORE!I've wanted to hold a design contest for a long time now, and finally I've gathered enough points to do it

Go here to browse entries: http://taravia.deviantart.com/favourites/55430170
What I'm looking for:
Everything! Wolves, foxes, fennec foxes, ferrets, servals, bobcats, tigers, other big cats, small cats, deers, dragons, gryphons, dogs, birds, hybrids, original species.. bring it!
I'm leaving the details to your imagination, but here are some things I really like:
-White base color with black and red markings<33 (mostly on canines)
-Cute and fluffy things! No need to go all big eyes and oversized heads, but animals with fur. Creepy and slimy things just aren't my thing.. Still don't be afraid to make something dark/evil
-Anything tribal
-Native american stuff
-Feathers!
-Tawny, golden, brown, white, red, blue, cyan, gray, black (well, not all combined)
-I like more natural base colors, but with smaller markings in unnatural colors like blue or red
-Long tails, big/long

Callibrate your Wacom tutorialHad you finally made the transition from intuos 3 to intuos 4?, or Are you rich to change into an intuos 5? Had you made the transition from a first generation cintiq to the new ones?. More levels of pressure will mean more quality to the paintings, am i right?.
Did you thought that by default the pen will it be like using butter on bread?, you try it for the first time and you love all of it, you said i have sooooooo much control on my strokes im having a blast. Then only to realize you only have total control of the brush but when you are moving it really slow?. But when you do quick strokes the pressure drops a lot of paint making you redraw tons of stuff?
Did you ever thought that painter its hard to handle with new tablet? Too much pressure? If it has more pressure why i cant control more easier the beggining of the stroke which is more crucial?.
Have you ever open the customize option in wacom settings, only to feel dumb and no

Journal Entry: Fri Oct 17, 2008, 2:26 PM

Mood: Content

guess what I've been upto!

lol...for the past days the rain has been falling...and its not a little bit either...It rained so much that the pasture behind my house became a lake...and the street in front of my house became a river...Again today it rained...and the same thing happened!

What did I do? lol yesterday I made a promise that the next time the rain fell I'll go run about in the rain (I always said I would do it but chickened out)...so the rain did fall and I kept my promise..haha...it was so much fun I felt like a little kid...this little guy from next door was peeping at me through the window probably wondering what a crazy nut I was...haha...I did the same thing today again too

ok I just had to share that

is there something you'd love to do that you used to do when you were a kid? tell me I wanna hear

oh...I finally chose the images to get printed..well sorta-ish...I'll get them monday..hopefully by then I should make a decision...maybe you guys can help me?

Here there are - (These are the definite ones)

Then here are the ones that I'm indecisive about - I'm choosing one out of these

:thumb86264559:

Then theres this one that I combined - I haven't uploaded it...but its a combination of these two images- the image is the reflection

which one of those should I choose?

sorry for the mutiple updates
....

So I redid the poll about adding three words - [link]

c'mon I want you guys to add yours if you haven't already...its fun

...and already I'm reading it and its getting hysterical

sorry for taking a while to reply to your comments and stuff...yesterday has been a crazy day...my grandmother got really sick and had to go to the hospital so I've been busy and now I'm trying to choose photos, retouch them to get printed for the competition...the problem is...I'm entering three...one is a definite entry...but the other two I can't figure out! and its driving me crazy

who else wants to be featured? I'm getting some thumbs - a few! and they're stunning! I wanna see yours! so thumb me them...lol..oh yeah I also posted a forum thread in the thumbshare about point and shoot photos...if you have photos taken with psc...thumb me them too! Two is the max

anyways gotta run can't tie the phone line...yeah I still have dial-up

take care! have a beautiful day

...

For some strange reason my messages are weird...I'm receiving journals in the future (which before was like hours ago-this happened like 2 days ago) then I don't even know that I got notes cus I wasn't notified...and I don't even know if my recent thumbnails/deviations are showing in your devwatch or poll

Its been acting strange...anyone having similar issues? lets hope you are able to even read this

.....

Yay!! so finally I got the time to do a feature...feels great

I'm at college now trying to kill time...

only 2 more hrs to go till class starts

sigh

I've been taking lots of photos lately cus I got to borrow a Nikon D40x from school...

I haven't taken photos in a while so I'm estatic...also working on a project about Blind People and Dreams...so thats basciall why I'm taking lots of random photos...hopefully I'll edit and post them soon

I still haven't decided on what I'm really entering for the annual NIFCA competition held here in Barbados...hmmm and time is running out

soo how have you guys been? everyone is good? missed me? pft

I've missed talking to you guys though and really taking the time to look at your work...I don't even get the time to check DD's and I usually do that everyday!

If you wanna be featured...post me three of your thumbs! don't feel shy cus I'll be more than willing to feature them...one thing though...no mature content...if no one replies...i'll do another catch my pageview thingy...somehow doing it that way makes people get their work feature hehe

anyways...enjoy the features

Wow. That sounds lovely! I wish it would rain here. I'd go run in it, too.

I'd love to have a sleep over with a friend and watch movies. I haven't done that in a long time.

Well, I think you should choose which ones you want! But if you're interested in hearing what I'd pick, I would go for this!

I added mine!

I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. I hope she will be all right.

Don't worry about comments and such. Just take care of yourself. Best of luck with the competition.
