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?)

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

Spirit Bound released in Australia

by *XxBurgiexX, May 21, 2010, 5:23:39 PM
Journals / Personal

Spirit Bound was released on May 18, something I completely forgot about. So I’m very excited about the release and am looking forward to buying it on Monday, which is the next time I receive my Youth Allowance.

I’ve loved the Vampire Academy series since I first started reading it, and I’ve now read the entire series cover to cover. I’ve been awaiting the release of this book since finishing Blood Promise a few weeks ago. There were so many questions left unanswered in Blood Promise- will Rose help Dimitri turn dhampir again? Is there truly a cure for Strigoi? And if so, will Rose give the cure to Dimitri before he kills her?

Of course, not all the questions are concerning Rose and Dimitri. Some questions concern the other characters, such as Lissa, Christian and Adrian. Christian and Lissa broke up at the end of Blood Promise, and many people are itching to know if they get back together or not.

But not much can be said without spoiling the plot of the whole series so far. If you don’t mind spoilers, continue reading. If you do, stop reading now and race out to read the series.

In the first chapter of Spirit Bound, which is available for viewing on Richelle Mead’s official website [link] Rose is about to take part in the trial to become a guardian. She wants to become Lissa’s guardian, protecting the Moroi princess from the evil Strigoi lurking outside the Academy grounds. This has been a theme all through the series, of Rose wanting desperately to become Lissa’s guardian.

If anyone has read Spirit Bound, please do not hesitate to leave a review about it. I so badly want to read it, but can’t until Monday. If I happen to buy and read the book before my next update on Wednesday, the next update will be my review of the book.

For now, though, the library is closing so I must bring my entry to a close. Happy reading and I hope to entertain you all next week with my review of the book or an entry on the Raglan markets

I'm dieing to have the get the next book. i left off where Rose had to hunt down Demitri... i was crying and so pissed when i found out...

~Ariashy May 22, 2010 Student Artist

I NEED TO HAVE THE 6TH BOOK I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENDS *twitch twitch*

~puppy444219 May 21, 2010

The book is amazing -- I got it the day it came out (Tuesday) and finished it last night. AMAZING READ. Blasted Cliffhanger end though-- so I'm impatient for the next one!
Er. Out of curiosity, how big of a time gap was there from when Blood Promise Came out to Spirit Bound? I usually assume a year for a book, but sometimes it can be a shorter time? I'm asking because I only read the VA series...errrm, back in March xD So I didn't have a long wait. Not looking forward to a big one, that's for sure =/

~raeshantel May 21, 2010 Student Photographer

The next one is due out on December 7th, so it's not a HUGE wait. But it's going to feel like forever.

~puppy444219 May 22, 2010

Yay! That's great to learn!

Thanks!
I'm super excited >w<
And you're right, not Huge. But that ending? Yep. Forever. Fail.

*EvilVampireDucky May 22, 2010 Student Traditional Artist

in the US, it comes out december 14

~raeshantel May 22, 2010 Student Photographer

I'm pretty sure it's the 7th worldwide. It WAS the 14th, but Richelle announced on her blog/Twitter/etc. that her publisher brought the date forward.

~SheTheFemale May 21, 2010 Student General Artist

I got my copy of Spirit Bound the day it came out in the US (the 18th as well) and have jut finished it. It was great. Wonderfully paced so it never felt like the story was dragging in some parts as it did in Blood Promise sometimes, and (as always) a great deal of interesting events. The end was one of the worst (and by that I mean one of the best frustration inducing) cliffhangers I've read in a while. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, so I will just say that the end came unexpectedly and the release of the next book—at least on my end—can't come soon enough. :]

*EvilVampireDucky May 22, 2010 Student Traditional Artist

after i finished SB, i told my friend i wished books had necks so i could strangle it, along with strangling dimitri for be so stupid.

~SheTheFemale May 23, 2010 Student General Artist

Yeah, I agree. I wanted to throw the book at something when it ended. And I was hoping someone would smack some sense into Dimitri there for a while. But, well, at least he almost redeemed himself there at the end. Almost.
