Work-wise, if all goes well, I should be able to quit my job soon in favor of taking an internship (sadly, I don't think I'll be able to give them much notice, but such is life.) I'll be a production assistant. Starting off working on an indy film, but hopefully this will lead to working on feature films and getting paid in a couple of days what I usually get paid in a week. What I'm really batting for is t be able to get in on the Art Department 'cause folks, it looks like fun (and the pay is pretty sweet, too.) Given, the days are long and the work isn't constant, but still. It's something where I'd be able to go home everyday feeling pretty good about myself. I mean, if I'm gonna be sitting around trying to figure ut what I cann use stuff for, I might as well get paid for it, no?

And really, to e able to acutally be on a set where amazing things are happening and be in near constent motion, it's awesome. And, dude, they FEED you. It is the LOVE!

On top of all that, I'm trying to start a business with said boyfriend and his best friend. Things are progressing a bit slowly, but they are indeed moving (the domain for said business should be up soon). Furthermore, I'm trying to (unsucessfully) raise money for a straight to garment printer.

As for my personal issues... well, there e quite a few of them. I'm considering having my head checked out. It's like, my brain used to fire off at a mile a minute, and now it's sluggish as all Hell. It seems that as I get old, I'm getting dumber. Conceptd that were very simple to me are now beyond my grasp. Perhaps it's a side effect of no longer being in school, or maybe I have a tumor or something. Maybe, just maybe, I'm loosing my fucking mind. That would be new and exciting.

As of right now I'm trying to build up my credit while at the same time havng enough money to eat. I'm also trying to save up cash to get an apartment (it's not looking so good... eck...) and have realized I'd need a fixed schedual of a good 30 hours a week at LEAST to be able to get an apartment, even with two other people.

Okay, my previous journal entry wasn’t very clear as to what I wanted to do exactly. I’ll try to be here. I’m trying to raise money to run a T-shirt/Print selling business. The most expensive thing I’m trying to get is a Straight to Garment Printer [link] It’s $14,995. I already have a domain and web host, I just need to get the pages up.

On top of that, I need to get the shirts, but they’re not hard to get. Nor are they too expensive. Especially when bought in bulk.

So far, a lot of my designs shown on this site (those not down with stock photos or someone else’s brushes) will be printed on the shirts along with snarky/humorous/political comments and new designs I’ll do just for the shirts. Originally, the shirts will either be black or white. As time goes on (and depending on my success rate) I’ll be using more colors.

As for prints of my work, I’ll likely get them done with Orange32 [link] because they rock my socks.

At the moment, I have a CaféPress ([link]) store to help raise money as well as a donation system set up with Paypal (link is on my here---> [link]). Though, it makes more sense to go to CafePress since then you get stuff.

Furthermore, I’d like to point out that I DID NOT get an ad on DeviantART to promote my business. I did it because I wanted more people to see and read my work. Simple as that. Call it silly, but I like the attention. While I do my art for myself, I like to know that others appreciate it as well.

So, I'm trying to start up my business. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me raise the money to start up. Everyone who donates will get something special. I'm not sure what exactly, likely a free t-shirt or something. So, please, help me out. I'm trying to raise $20,000. Steep, I know, but every little dollar counts. Even if you only submit a buck, you'll get something.


I'll make a poll later to ask what people want.

Thank you.

Listening to: Creep - Stoned Temple Pilots

So, as of late I've been suffering from a (likely stress enduced) multimedia block an it's been driving me bonkers. It's been noted that my last two pieces appear rather forced and my wrting has been suffering greatly. So, for as long as it takes I will likely be taking a brake from art in general. HOWEVER, I'll likely take this time to start loading up my stock images (of which I have hundreds... I think... >< and the odd photograph (really doesn't take as much strain as everything else does).

I've been pretty depressed lately, which is likely contributing to this block. GRAG!

Eh... I'll get over it.

1) To begin with, there is an increasing amount of art photography also being posted here. These are NOT stock. Make sure to check and make sure the image is in stock before using it.

2) NOTE me with a link directly to the image you used me stock in. I'd like to see how you've used the image and if I like it enough I'll put up a link in this journal and favorite it.

3) CREDIT me. I've seen many people who had great stock galleries shut them down because of something so simple. It's a simple enough gesture.

If you wish to use these for Prints just let me know. I will likely have no problem with it. A free print of the piece would be nice though ^_^

Ok, thanks and happy deviating ^_^

There's a link in his journal where you can donate. Read the details there.

Speaking of that, I've decided to take a rather inactive roll in devantART in light of recent events. I'm not posting anymore work and all of my non-"yellow" deviations are in storage until our fearless leader regains control of deviantART (or "deviantJARK, as some have come to call it) or yo-yo ninja boy over here finally tells us why he fired jark.

Is that to much to ask? Is treating a community like one too hard or something? ]]> ~Coinin http://Coinin.deviantart.com/journal/6146543/ http://Coinin.deviantart.com/journal/6146543/ Sat, 06 Aug 2005 00:51:54 PDT Simply-Being's flicker page:

To clarify what I have been advising EVERYONE NOT to do...on the 7th (as many times as possible)

DO NOT get a lot of people to Google Deviant art AND air their disenchantment also.
FOR EXAMPLE (to Illustrate Search Engine 'Rankings'

In the case (Which I am not advising ANYONE to do )
"Deviant Art Artists Upset over firing of founder" Then what would happen is that each word in that request would be ranked by the search engine, and in turn the search engine would return deviant art links, initially, ONLY because Deviant Art is more highly ranked than "Artists upset"

If enough people Entered "Deviant Art" AND "Artists upset" Soon ALL keywords would be ranked, and even a search of "Upset" would return (near the top) Deviant Art links. So you see, a line like "ARTISTS OBJECT TO FIRING OF JARK AND THREATEN TO FIND A NEW ART SITE" Would link ALL of those Keywords, and rank them.

If enough people DID that, then Even a search of "ART" would likely return pages devoted to DA Artists objecting to Jark's having been fired. It may not seem to make sense but It CAN work, especially if people add a Link to a particular page (like Mine, or =elleXOX or... *hentaibunnyinc)

"ARTISTS OBJECT TO FIRING OF JARK AND THREATEN TO FIND A NEW ART SITE Simply-Being".

Even if only a few hundred people did it, it could alter rankings in the search engines, but it would work much better if EVERY Deviant who supports Jark would do it, and all on one day. I am NOT ADVISING PEOPLE TO DO THIS, as it would UNFAIRLY RANK sites which CLEARLY support JARK.. Besides, that kind of thing would also attract attention from GOOGLE.... and the news...

"I'm innocent, I tell ya"

P.S. (I am also not advising anyone to cut and paste this to their own pages and those of fellow JARK supporters)

Let's roll. ]]> ~Coinin http://Coinin.deviantart.com/journal/6128284/ http://Coinin.deviantart.com/journal/6128284/ Sat, 06 Aug 2005 00:19:48 PDT lunatics have taken over the asylum. Corporate corruption's anti-perspirant has worn out and people are beginning to smell it's stink wafting through the air. There is commotion in the community, and a deviant is named. The community has lost it's affinity for ninja's and yellow aliens are now all the rage. A birthday is comming up and a parent scorned. The brainchild is now a cashcow for a man who runs a free copywrite infringing machine while clamping tightly on the reigns of a community that scorns it. Where is the justice we so rightfully deserve? Where is the truth in this conglomerate of overly American propoganda and twisted truths? Am I right in supporting the alien, or is all that "We come in peace" really just bullshit?

EDIT!!!

I want to create a massive poster including as many "yellow" images made by other deviants as I can find. It will also, if consented, include their (non-moving) icons as well. Whether it be non-moving emoticons, icons, banners, fliers or whatever, as long as it's in support of $jark I want to use it. If you wish to particapate, send me a note or reply to this comment.

Also, if you don't have any deviations or yellow icons, or just don't want them in the image itself, if you send me a note, I'll make sure your icon shows up in the description.

Thank You

First order of business, my boyfriend is now the lead singer in a alt. metal band. Rox! Oh yeah, bad ass!

:: ahem :: Right.

Cartoonists Wanted
Make sure to read this WHOLE thing before emailing me.

I'm currently trying to find someone to work with to do a once a week scifi webcomic. I have the first 6 weeks stamped out and a basic idea of what the characters look like. In fact, I have one of them already in my gallery: Vicky

I can't do the art for the webby myself because:
-I don't currently have a working scanner,
-I don't do comic book art. That requires that I be able to draw the same character repeatedly and in certain poses I find extremely difficult. I am a painter, not a cartoonist.

The story is called PsiNet and takes place in modern New York City (specifically Coney Island in Brooklyn). An undergound (quite literally) virtual reality multiplay strategy/fighting game involving cybernetic implants is based under the amusemnt parks of Coney Island. The story is focused on a particular team of players and their lives in and out of the game.

Requirements:

1. Be able to draw armour, cyborgs and the like. Basically, Cyber Punk.
2. Draw fighting poses and a variety of others.
3. Draw a variety of body types.
4. Draw both male and female characters.
5. Draw a variety of ages.
6. Have a great sense of humor about themselves.
7. Be willing to get to know me and be my friend.
8. You gotta have a scanner

I would prefer that this not be done in Anime/Manga style and more of an American style. I like Anime as much as the next person (heck, look at my favorites gallery) but more often then not all of the charcters look the same. A little mix and match would be cool though (western comic book style with chibis). Of course, if you do draw in an Anime style that is not the mainstream style, like say the style in which Linkin Park's Breaking the Habit video was done, I'd be cool with that. I just don't want this to look like the million of other webcomic manga's on the web. Of course, even if you think you draw in a generic style, e-mail me anyway. I may choose you despite that if I like you and your work that much.

Another thing is that I'd prefer that the artist live in NYC and be familiar with Brooklyn. This would help alot. However, it's not necessary. We can deal if you live in California or Japan or something.

Also, I should point out that this comic is VERY strong in the slash category. And I don't just mean men either. Girls also. there are going to be at LEAST 4 homosexual relationships going on in here. If you don't think you can handel that, don't even bother e-mailing me.

So, if you are interested, contact me at PixagiCoinin@Gmail.com or pyropixagi@yahoo.com with "Answer to cartoonist request" in the subject line so I don't just delete the message right away. You can also IM me on AIM at Pixagi. If you have a warning on you it is likely that I won't accept the message, so be careful when IMing me.

Ok, that's it. Thank you for reading my (rather lengthly) proposal and hope to get a chance to work with you in the future.

Sincerly,

Well, my dA page is being wonky, so I posted a link overhead to my latest deviation. A few (a very select few) will get it and the rest will think you do. I'm not trying to be stuck up or anything, it's just a fact and I'm not gonna tell the secret, just gonna let you know it has more then one connection to one of my previous deviations.

On another note, I have my very first boyfriend. Yes folks, BOY. B-O-Y boy! I just thought I should clarify that seeing as how I've been only dating girls until last Sunday.

Here's something I think alot of people (missionary's, fundies, born again's, specifically) miss and need to know when trying to convert people.

1. When trying to tell someone they are wrong, you can't use the 10 Commandments. They have no weight.

2. You cannot use Hell to scare someone who doesn't believe that such a place exists.

3. You can't use Heaven to bribe a person who doesn't believe such a place exists.

4. The minute you call their people, or people they respect (this can apply to whole nations) "godless" because they don't have the same beliefs as you, you've lost them.

5. Acceptance and understanding should come in the case that you fail to convert them. The more you push, the less likely they are to agree with you. When they don't want to convert, don't ask stupid questions like "Don't they know we're trying to save their souls?" Of course they don't. To them, you're the one who's misguided. Not them. Duh.

6. Erase the words "blasphemy" and "sacrelige" from your vocabulary. Believe me.

7. Rounding up a bunch of little kids and forcing them to go to military school is never a good idea.

8. Don't treat the people you're trying to convert like children. They'll resent you for it, and may very well show you up.

9. Why don't you try to learn about the people you're trying to convert? It may help, no? Not everything you don't understand about a religion or culture is Devil worship. You may be able to incorperate it into a new Sect of you're religion and make them more apt to convert.

10. This is where many do wrong. Assuming that the people you are trying to convert aren't as passionate about their beliefs as you are. Differance does not equate faithlessness. Not everyone is going to convert the minute they hear about you're shiney, holy, merciful god or godess or whatever. It's not a good idea. And, make sure you don't use phrases like "But that doesn't count because it's apart of that religion and not mine." BAD move.
