UPDATED WITH IMPORTANT NEWS AT THE BOTTOM! GO CHECK NOW! D:<

ÂI wan esfemas fo kris mas, aiwanee ven wisfo snow.
Am jazz gonna keep on wayreh ondo nidduh mistle toad.Â

Isn't this just pure, unfiltered amazingness? why yes, yes it is.
There are quite a few things I could quote from that video but I will leave it be for now, I don't want to ruin it for you. Just watch it and be captured by amazing vocals, accurate lyrics and a stage-talent that has no equal.

Anyways, how are you guys? My last journal was a while ago and a lot of exciting things happened lately. I want to talk to you! By the way, yes, I nuked my messages. Why you ask? Well I started my civil service last Tuesday and I just thought that I will never be able to catch up if I do not clear out my messages and start over new. No bad feelings if I did not/won't reply to your comments and replies.

Talking about civil service, I really enjoy it so far. Okay, it's only been 4 days out of 9 months in total but it feels good getting out of the house again and hey, the payment is nice. I will finally be able to spend some money just as I see fit. It's really not much but I will not complain.

I also bought a vinyl record on Radiohead's In Rainbows a few days ago and I am in heaven. my favorite album in my favorite medium by my favorite band. JUST LOOK AT IT. Isn't it just soooooooooo pretty and hot and amazing? It oozes "amazing", seriously. That makes me wonder, do YOU have some vinyl records? Do you like them? Or are you all digital and prefer the crystal clear sound of CDs and FLAC files?

Anyways, have some features and we're done for today. Take care everyone.

Update

Hey you guys!
Sorry for interrupting... whatever you were just doing but here's a lovely announcement.
Elvis, Rob, Will and myself created a new group: #Photomentalist.
The name gives it already away: Photography + Fundamentalist. Back to basics. Make great images with the equipment you have or can afford. You don't need a Canon EOS 5D MkII with a Canon EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM Super Telephoto Lens in order to call yourself a photographer or take great pictures.
But we plan to offer even more and therefore - we need your support. Check the group, read the first blog and join us as a Member or even Contributor.

Just Pure Photography.

...that being gay, gay marriage, supporting the gay community, gayness in general, sodomy and breathing will result in burning in hell and eternal torments by the leader of the underworld:

That being said, go fuck yourself up your rectum and like it.

(Above in reference to the comments on this.)

My birthday was okayish

My cousin is an asshole

I did not receive a single greeting card from my relatives

Same thing goes for calls

Ergo: I still dislike my family as much as beforehand

I received gifts from people on dA and I am really thankful for that

I think I start to really enjoy being a part of the community again

Although I really need to get my ass in gear and reply to my messages

I am fucking obsessed with RENT

â Friends â My DD Features â My DD Suggestions â #queerios â

Gosh. 6 weeks since my last journal entry. What the hell is up with me, you ask?
Well, a lot of things. I'm not really in the best condition there is, both mentally and physically but I'll manage. A lot of stuff has happened the past few weeks, some were positive, the majority negative. I don't really want to make this a big topic and especially not public but I can assure you that I'll be okay.

My civil services will start next month. Wow. I only waited what like 8 months for it. And let me tell you, 8 months with not doing anything are definitely not good for you. Even if you think your holidays are too short, trust me, they are just right.
I'll be working at a center for seniors to do various activities at, language courses, yoga or even just have lunch. It's a wonderful opportunity methinks. I got the chance to work there for about a day and I really enjoyed it. Helping others is definitely something I enjoy doing. And being helpful to others is what makes life worth living to me.
I didn't get any details but I heard the payment is not too bad at all either. And I really need some money. P:

Art-wise I have been utterly uncreative lately. But that's not new. Also, just about nobody gives a damn about my art anyways so I think I should just stop submitting stuff. I hate pretty much everything I created anyways. But that is also not news. Ergo: nothing new on the art-front. One last thing: Emotes are a curse.

ALSO. Ew. 8 fucking days. Yes:

Can someone please shoot me? Anyone? I don't want to turn 20. ;__;
I am still 17 at heart. And I have been 17 at heart since I was 14, I feel like nothing changed in this time lapse. Besides that, my birthdays always suck monkey ass so I suppose this one won't be any different. But Trevor made this beautiful CSS as an early birthday present and I am really happy about it.
My cousin said he wants to drag me to a bar on my birthday. Which I find odd since I normally don't have that much contact with him (Or the rest of my family for that matter). We'll see. And no, I will not get hammered.

Anyways, thanks for listening to my unimportant ramblings, out of my rather unimportant life.
_{I still think that should be official HTML.}

So long.

Lahvs lahvs. <3

...you definitely need to check out ~deutsch, the largest German community on dA. It's been rather dead lately but I am one of the new administrators there and I plan to bring a bit more life into it. At the moment it will stay a bit calm but that will change. I'll make this a group, no matter the cost. D:

Who bought this for me? It's soooo cute.

Thank you.

That. Is amazing. Probably one of the most amazing music videos I have seen in a long time. One of the very few times I was actually entirely captured by a music video - to an extent that I watched it three times in a row without leaving my eyes off it for a second. And. Several times after that as well.
The whole concept of ÂWhat IfÂ just fascinates me. It shows that no matter which decision you make, which type of character you are, you can never foresee things and they never turn out just like you want them to. Life is full of quirks that challenge us. The ending is simply superb. See it for yourself and be the judge.

You should totally check out the artist of the music too. That video made me buy the full album and I have been listening to it ever since. You can check out a few songs on last.fm or if you have spotify, you can click this link to listen to the full album. That all happened today by the way. Thanks to Tumblr and Max. Brightened my shitty day a little.

Anyhoots, how is everyone doing? I know I haven't posted a journal in a while and was lacking activity all around dA but I was just swamped in messages that my motivation decided to commit suicide. (That's why I nuked my messages too - sorry if your comments remain unreplied, I read all of them though. Multiple times.

BY THE WAY. I uploaded a new deviation. Just so you know. :B

BY THE WAYÂ². I almost forgot the question.
Is there something that currently bothers you? Tell me! You can rant as much as you wish.

Enjoy your time and stay classy.

Do you know the
feeling

When people you used to be so close to just keep turning their backs towards you?

People just don't think it's necessary to talk to you anymore?

Are disgusted by you?

Abandon you?

Ignore you?

Disrespect you?

Ditch you?

Hate you?

Or treat you differently without any reason?

And you constantly ask yourself:

Why?
What have I done?

Let me tell you about this feeling.

It Fucking Sucks

Praise The Cake

â Friends â My DD Features â My DD Suggestions â #queerios â

It is spreading.

The Cake Virus. Also known as the C-Virus. It all started with a comment ~mrjans left on my page. (Which means that you need to give him a cake!) I started to give him a cake back. So did =M-PlayC3ll. So did `frozenpandaman. I tweeted about it. More people did it. They started to exchange cakes. And soon all of dA will be covered in DELICIOUS CAKE.

So do it like the cool kids! Spread the cake everywhere. Spam it. Give it to your friends! Visit a random deviant and cake them! THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS.

So go and give dA a cake. They will thank you forever.

EDIT Check out this awesome drawing by ^ctJemm It's sexy. Like her.

EDITÂ² A prime example of a successful caker is =Rainbow-Mist-Topaz - Just look at everyone who got caked! You can do that too!

Whoop Whoop!

*takes a deep breath* Ahhhhhhhh~

Finally that drama filled journal with all of its 800+ comments is off my front page. I am glad. Because frankly, I do not care about that stuff anymore.

THERE'S MORE IMPORTANT STUFF!

Namely, dA's 9th birthday. But since just about every member of staff and volunteer already posted that collection of links I am not gonna bother pointing that stuff out. BUT! There is more for you to check out. Us seniors (Yanno. The nutcases with the ` in front of their screeennames) organized a lot of awesome things for you! For one, there are many many events in the #seniors channel on dAmn, so drop by! A full list of events can be found here. `SeniorEvents is also holding a little contest you will all enjoy. More information can be found in the journal.

ALSO: New seniors! I am particularly REALLY happy about the seniorization of `Rubius and `krissi001, really well deserved. But there are even more! Check the announcement and Make the new senior's pages ooze love by commenting and congratulating!

EDIT: Take some time and congratulate the uber awesome Stan, $starvingartist, for receiving this year's Bolt Award! He's the guy who does all the amazing pixel work for deviantART and much much more. Read the article and see it for yourself.

Besides all the "birthday shenanigans" (God I read those words too often the past few days), I am doing okay so far. Although I have been rather busy lately I always found some time to talk to my friends via MSN and Skype and have a good time with them. I am having a few problems in my life right now both time and financial wise; feel rather burnt out and exhausted. I am not sure if I will somehow manage it. I shall try my very best at least, we'll see how it goes. No one will read this part anyways so I just add one thing: Cocks.

Special love goes out to Lydia, Rob, Laurie, Dean and Elvis today. Just because.

Love you guys a lot.

â Friends â My DD Features â My DD Suggestions â #queerios â

Hello again!

You may... and probably will have noticed that I am no longer a member of deviantART staff.
The reason for my termination was not agreeing with the administration of dA regarding recent and past site changes but I will not name any details. I do not want to make a big deal or drama about this, what happened has happened. So respect that in your comments on this journal. Those who want to know more detail will surely be disappointed but again, I do not want to make a huge deal out of this. I am probably better off anyways for multiple reasons. I am just disappointed as to why I have been terminated. The past two weeks I have been working on a few things I wanted to launch soon but I won't be able to realize them now, I'm sorry.

Both $Moonbeam13 and ^PurpelBlur are taking care of the emoticon gallery as long as ^Synfull is on vacation so please direct inquiries regarding DD features and the like to both of them for now.

I enjoyed being able to serve the community in some ways. And I thank everyone of you who took the time and showed a little appretiation.

Love you guys. â¥

On a side note, please check out the link to the =Inqy-family fund in the footer. I would appreciate if you could spread the word and eventually help out a little.

EDIT: I think it's funny how people who never gave a shit about commenting on my journals do so now just to make snarky remarks. If you planned to, I would kindly ask you to refrain from doing it. I am seriously not in the mood for any bullshit right now, thank you.

Creamy Cum Crepes

`DeMaulwurfn — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 07:04:27 PDT

â Friends â My DD Features â My DD Suggestions â #queerios â

Oh boy...

Just look at those Crepes... Err anyways.

Hello hello my dear watchers whom I love so much.

First, I want to deeply apologize for my lack of updates and replying to notes. I probably seem like a lazy prick to you but let me explain.

The past two weeks I have been swamped with paperwork (Insurance, my civil services, had to write shitloads of letters to the army, etc), had barely a minute of my online time for dA.
Then as many of you probably know already, my uncle passed away a few days ago so I drove up to France in order to be with him when it happens. He really was my closest relative and it's an incredibly big loss. It will take a long time til I am able to cope with it.

But now I shall stop the apologizing and get back to work here on dA.
I hope you all will understand.

Kso.

There are many things you probably already know about but I will mention them anyway.
What I wanted to tell everyone since Wednesday last week:
My GM partner, ^Synfull, will be away for about a month and therefore I alone will be in charge of the gallery for that time. Karen will pop in from time to time but she won't have enough time to actively participate in handling the emoticons gallery all that much. Of course you can still contact her and she will do her best to get back to you. But please (in order not to swamp Karen with shitloads of notes and comments while she's on vacation D: ) direct most of the inquiries, questions and DD suggestions to me.
I will gladly help anyone who has problems or questions so do not hesitate to contact me. :)
I will also be on dAmn more often from now on. You will most likely find me in #queerios, #WeEmote and #devart (although I will be idling in there most of the time. :B). If you want me to join one of these chats when I am not in there, just tell me and I'll see if I can stop by!

ALSO.

We have a few new GMs you should all welcome (back) to the team.
^budgie, ^l8, ^DCZed, ^Thebuild and ^Gonzale. All I can say is that these people know their shit and are excellent additions to the CR team. I am really proud of it. :')

THEN.

There's also the super awesome Four Seasons Community Project. Seriously, check that shit out (not only because I am a judge but also because it is made of sex and awesome). This project is all about community spirit and team work! It's awesome!
Also, Fella Plushies are up for grabs. Is that awesome or what? Did I mention it's an wearisome project? So join and swim in awesome. It'll be awesome, trust me.
The deadline is:
Monday 10th August, 2009 at 11:59PM GMT. [Find your timezone]

Short update

You may have been wondering where last month's DD roundup was - the reason why I didn't post it up may be obvious.
Since my return to dA was pretty much at the end of the month, I haven't been able to catch up with things early enough in order to be able to make the news article in due time. Therefore I decided to merge it with next month's edition which means that the next article will contain the emote DDs of May and June. Sorry for the inconvenience.

But hey, make sure to head over to ^Synfull's journal.... I heard a little surprise for emoticonists may await you there.

As you can see

I am back. Yes. Amazing isn't it.
I really have to say that taking a break from deviantART and the internet (Somewhat) was a good thing to do. Even if I had to neglect my position on dA a little. It's good to be back too though.
Life has just been utterly complicated and I still feel really depressed and hurt but that's another story.
So although I am back, that doesn't necessarily mean I am able to devote my entire time to deviantART again.
I will do my best to do as much as possible though and I can't wait to get to talk to some of you guys again. I missed you! D:

On that occasion I'd like to thank some people who were a big help and a great support while I was on hiatus, some of them are =deviousdarkheart, ^ctJemm, *MerelyMarquis, =M-PlayC3ll and quite a few other people (whose usernames I am, for now, way too lazy to type out).

To start things off again, I'd really appreciate some DD suggestions, as you can imagine, my inbox is starving because it hasn't been fed properly in about 2^1/2 weeks. Don't let it die and feed it again.

Oh and

This CSS was made by a good friend of mine AGES ago, it was in fact my very first CSS which I tweaked a little. The original version was a bit bulkier and sloppy. lol. I still love it though. =paranthasis made it for me over a year ago. :)
I have to say I quite like this modified version and I shall keep it for a while (Until =davecheesefish gets around to make one for me... ;3 No I have not forgotten about it. But take your time. lol)

Question

What is your biggest dream?

What do you want to achieve one day? I? I just want to... break free.
And don't say you don't have one. Dreams are what keeps us alive.

Features

I don't know when I'll be back. I just need a break. Things have been too much to handle lately and especially dA has evolved from something I loved to pieces into something that drains the last bits of energy from my batteries.

I'll still be around though. Catch me on MSN or Skype or stuff.
EDIT: If you wanna have it, note me with your IM address/screenname.
I'll eventually add you if I feel like it.

This is not a BAWW IMMA LEAVE DA FOREVAHZ kinda thing though. I assume I'll be back soon.
Maybe in a couple of weeks, maybe earlier. Idno.

But as I said.

Cut me a fucking break.

Please.

Feather Nipple Clips

â Friends â My DD Features â My DD Suggestions â

Why hello there!

Strange title... I seem to have an obsession with nipples lately. Okay that sounded kinda wrong but who cares actually. If you don't know what Feather Nipple Clips are, google it.

I haven't updated my journal in about 3 weeks. That's incredibly much for my standards considering I used to update my journal every single weekend. I also apologize for the lack of activity all around dA. I had a lot of personal issues and therefore I lacked motivation to care about dA lately. I shall get involved more again from now on. I also know that I still have a lot of notes with suggestions to go through so sorry if it will take some time to get around to check them to those who sent me suggestions lately. â¥

So what's everyone been up to lately? I am dying to hear from you! :0
What are your plans? What have you done lately? Seriously, I haven't properly spoken to you in ages.

See Ess Ess

As you can see I decided to make a new CSS. BUT I noticed that it looks a lot like the one Alder made a couple of months ago. >____>;
Let's face it: I fail at making CSS. On so many levels.
If you know someone who makes CSS by request, please let me know. ;-; I really really want a new one. :< Or could YOU make one for me? Pretty plz... :c
(Okay enough of the begging, I feel pathetic.)

Seeneeurz

I am so... SO happy about the new seniors, you can't even imagine. `CookiemagiK, `AimanStudio, `Solitude12 and also `kasumichan2003 - all people who deserve it more than anything and people who should have received it even sooner.
Go congratulate them or feel my wrath. Also, check out the rest of the seniors in the Seniority Announcement of April 2009.

Oh dear...

Scroll down for update

Thanks again for all the comments on my last journal, you all can't imagine how much that actually means to me. I was already at about 400 comments and I still have to reply to a lot of them. I will get around to do so, I promise.
I myself am feeling a little better, I am quite sure Easter Vacation/Spring Break/Whatever-the-heck-it-is-I-don't-care-it-means-I-get-two-weeks-off-break contributes to it. the weather if fine and surprisingly, my allergies are not that bad. Yet. :B
On the other hand, my poor Will's computer broke again, and all of his 1^1/2 years of work are gone. He will sell his iPod to get some money for a new one, ~~I shall update this journal as soon as he provides a link to the auction.~~

EDIT: Please please please, if you want an iPod touch, it's your chance to get one with various accessories: Click Me! :3
And keep in mind that Will sells his loved iPod to get a new computer. If you can't bid on it, please spread the word a little. Spam it on Twitter, MySpace or whatever. Please. â¥
Or I will probably go bananas without him. ;~;

Also, as you may have noticed... if you are not totally mentally stable/sorta blind/whatever, I have decided to get rid of my fail CSS. It annoyed me. So I switched to this one which was made by the wonderful `ginkgografix/*Shyada and is actually one of my fa...

Goodbye

Everything has an end and this afternoon at about 2:15pm, my dog passed away. It's been a tough decision but giving her the peace she deserves was all that we could do. The euthanization was quick and she slept in peacefully.

It's going to be weird returning home with no one who welcomes you or wants to go for a walk.
Then again I feel that it was the right decision. She's in a better world now.

You may wonder why I write that much about her or even in the first place but you know, I grew up with her. I don't know a life without a pet and she grew on me.

Ah well... it's been a long journey. A tough one for her. A tough one for us. But she lived with us for 13 years and will continue to live in our hearts. I will miss you.

Besides That

Of course all of this casts a shadow on the rest of my journal but there are a few things I need to tell you.

First, the new CSS. Like it? I hope so. (~~And yes, I totally stole the code snippet of the fixed background from Jon.~~ Disregard that, it annoyed me. Yey for nonfixed BGs. Ah well. The rest is made by myself though. lmao.) If you have any suggestions or stuff: Let me know! :D
I thought about a header graphic but idno what I could add there. :B Scratch that, I missed my old CSS. :V

Also, my dear Will's computer went bonkers and I miss him terribly. D: Ah well.

And btw, I still have a lot of messages and notes to go through, please give me some time to reply to all of them, I will get to it, I promise. :3

Ksolike...

Hello yet again! :D

Last week has been utterly stressful, school wise. This combined with my usual procrastination when it comes to clearing my message center leads to a very high delay in answering questions and replying to comments and the like. And I am sorry for that. I shall try to take care of my message center as soon as possible. â¥

So while I am at it, I want to thank each and everyone of you who commented, faved or even just viewed my recent deviation:

It has been skyrocketing, seriously. And made a mess out of my recently cleaned message center. D:
Then again, I, as I said, can't thank you enough since the deviation means quite a lot to me.

Springtiems

I can feel that spring is coming. Besides the fact that it's been raining for quite some time.
The air just smells like spring. But I have yet to experience a sunny day and I can't see a single flower anywhere.
Although I am like... allergic as heck. I don't really care, I love spring, it's one of my favorite seasons. Listening to the birds singing is just fabulous.

So yeah. Rainy days tend to depress me. The only thing that can cheer me up on days like this is talking to Will. But since he's at school at the moment, that is impossible to do right now. D:
But, as awkward as it may sound, one of these stupid facebook applications managed to make me laugh this morning. Because I saw this:

Yes, that's our good ol' Danie, aka $Moonbeam13.

Sorry Danie, it's not my fault. Blame facebook. And of course I clicked "yes". D:

I still hope I won't appear in an application like this any time soon.

Mugging is fun

Hello there. :D

Yes, mugging is fun. Especially when it is for a good cause.
I have been mugged lately. By `Flutterings. Like countless other deviants. And a lot of money has been raised through the sale of these mugs - all profit goes directly into breast cancer research.

As you know, there's not only a mug of me but also something like a "couple mug" with Will and my usernames on it. And exactly that one arrived a few days ago:

Buy This Mug â Buy My Mug â Buy More Mugs

Remember, it's for a good cause so it would be kickass if you'd at least buy one. There's something for everyone. :]
And if you bought one, show it off! (Hence the title. :B)
Here are a few "Mugshots" I've seen so far:

And of course I purchased one of these for Will as well. I mean... it wouldn't be a true couple mug if both of us wouldn't have one of those. >:3

Go and tell Will what an amazing and awesome person he is. I command you to. And you know you cannot resist.

I'm too lazy to come up with a title for this section

First, leave give some warm hugs and a lot of love on `feawen's page, who decided to leave the Community Relations team. â¥

Now how have I been doing? Splendid I must say. This week was pretty fucked up nevertheless, school.... It's all haywire. Seriously.
But I don't want to go all emo on you again, I have the feeling that I did that in like... just about every single journal till now.

One thing I do want to apologize for is my lack of activity lately. I don't know why but I used to be way more active on dA. I guess my depressions really constrained my eager to do some stuff on dA.
I shall try my best to get back to my old form though.

Besides that - I NEED INSPIRATION. Seriously. You know that I don't like to upload some 5 minute emoticons, I want to submit quality artwork I can actually be proud of, and lots of effort went into. Because I seriously also don't want to spam my watchers with half assed works.
So yeah... I lack creativity, big time.

Nevertheless, Rob managed to cheer me up today with this: Click!
It was indeed really amusing. Seriously. Click that link. Now. And tell me what you think. Seriously.

I don't want to see the person who actually falls for that trick. But this stupid attempt at gaining access to my data is just too funny. :'D
And if I were that Mr. John Scott I would really consider taking English classes.

Nao for some reel shtuffs

I know I can't tell you anything about it but one thing is for sure: great and glorious times are coming up for the emoticon gallery. A lot of projects are in the making and you'll all be excited for sure. Just wait and see - you'll be blown away. :D

As for my personal life, things haven't been doing all too well. I've been really depressed and down lately, life is getting really complicated and a hard task I doubt I will be able to master the way I imagined it. That doesn't mean I will be inactive on dA though, this is a place I can relax a little at, find some time to forget about everything and calm down.
And if dA doesn't help, I still have Will who is always able to make me forget about things and make my life brighter. â¥
So don't worry about me all too much. Will will take good care of me. >:3

Oh and I know I haven't submitted a lot of art recently... not that I really upload a lot in the first place. :B
I am making an emote at the moment but the animation is driving me nuts. We'll see if you're ever gonna see it. lmao.

OKAY I SWEAR THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE <3

newb tiem is over

Yes you heard right. Never imagined it'd be that fast but I am not the n00biest newb anymore! :D

Go and congratulate ^Sander-Seto on becoming the new Text Art Gallery Moderator!
And don't forget about ^PorcelainPoet in Photography and ^splintered13 in Wallpaper!

Farewell...

A fellow deviant and brilliant artist, `hakubaikou, passed away because of a car accident.

Click!

Please take some time and leave a respectful message and farewell on her page. Her family maintains the account and will appreciate it for sure.

A week has passed

Hello again! :D

Yeah, about one week has passed since Danie decided to give me a hat and I have to say that everything is going great so far. I slowly start to feel like a real part of the CR team and everyone has been nice and welcoming.
I also featured a few Daily Deviations already and I am happy everything went well. lmao. It was a bit scary scheduling my first one but I am used to it now. :D

The hat also brought a shitload of messages though. D:
And since I am not feeling too well (I think I caught a cold again), I had no energy/time to really get around and thank everyone for welcoming me to the team, or congratulating me on the position.

Therefore I will just do it here - thank you guys, it means a lot.

CR Related

I have a few things I'd really like to address here.

As you may know, the emote gallery is soiled with miscats, many of them are copyright violations like ripped sprites from Sonic or PokÃ©mon games, some of them recolored, some of them not. I received quite a lot of notes asking where these should be submitted to and the answer is simple: not at all.
Ripped sprites from videogames are considered to be art theft according to dA policy, please view
FAQ #8: What does deviantART consider to be Art Theft?
for further information.

Also, I'd like to point out that Gallery Moderators cannot do anything about copyright violations, we have to report such deviations just like you do. Also, please do not post any inflammatory comments on those deviation's pages. So if you come across deviations that you think violate copyrights, please report them and move along.

You may remember that `Chimpantalones posted a useful journal about what are and aren't emotes, it pretty much covers the situation we are in right now.
I think one of the reasons why there are so many miscats in the emoticon gallery is that people cannot separate between animated GIFs and emoticons or don't even know what they are.
Therefore I ask for your input: Do you think it'd be good to start something (Like a project, etc) to create something like "Emote Awareness"? Do you think that journal needs to be updated? Maybe in form of a news article? I am open for any suggestions as long as they are constructive. :]

Also: I NEED MOAR DD SUGGESTIONS

How very exciting... again

Well hello! :D

Apparently, a tick was not enough - after exactly 2 weeks it grew and now is a little Caret.

Oh boy how exciting. But yes, as you may have noticed I am your new Gallery Moderator for emoticons! :]

But I am not alone, I have a partner in crime - ^Synfull to be exact.

Yup, for the first time ever, The emote gallery will have two moderators. Exciting innit?

I am so glad that I have been offered this position and I shall do my very best at serving the community.

A whole lot of GMs are on the team now, including a very special friend of mine, ^ctJemm â¥

Please take some time to congratulate all the new GMs:

^armaina
^Mistress-Jaeden
^ForksOfTheSalad
^technographer

^SparrowSong

Thanks again to each and every single one of you for your dedication and love, dA will forever be my online home. â¥

As for DD Suggestions, I already received 2, that was fast. :B

I shall set up guidelines as soon as possible but if you have anything you wanna see featured, fire away. :D

Besides dA...

As you may have noticed by reading the replies to my poll or my latest deviation - yes, I am bisexual and yes, I am deeply in love with Will.
He made me feel alive again, brightens up my day every time I feel down.
I love him to pieces. â¥

And no, bisexuals are not gays in denial. :V

Okay this may be a weird time to announce it but I don't really care. lmao. :3

And for the people who ask about Gaby...
I still love her to death and I would do freakin' everything for her, trust me.
And all I want is to see Gaby smile. And I still wanna meet her desperately. One of my biggest wishes. â¥

But I have the feeling that the thing between Will and me is incredibly serious, I never felt that way for a person before.

So yeah. I don't wanna distract too much from my GMness now, if you have questions feel free to shoot me a note. :3

Love for Text Art <3

â Friends â My DD Suggestions â Fave Of The Month â #BlankSex â

~ EDIT: Updated the feature. ~

How very exciting...

Hello hello fellow deviants. :]

Today marks my one year anniversary on dA and boy that was a year...

It was a year full of excitement, drama and fun.

I don't think I exaggerate when I say that dA completely changed my life and my view on internet communities.

Before I joined dA, I was really active on YouTube, never really interested in social networking, had what like 2 friends on facebook and wondered why I made a facebook account in the first place.

One day, someone told me about deviantART as a great resource for wallpapers - it took me around 2 months till I decided to sign up.

And from that point on I was totally addicted. I visited dA daily, although I didn't have many friends here. That pretty much all ended when I met =synconi.

She showed my what dA really is about, what an exceptional community this really is.

Today I think that Gaby still is one of the most amazing people I've met to date, her continuous support, love and appreciation for every little thing are something you don't find in a lot of people. And Gaby is without a doubt one of the few people who mean a lot to me.

And a certain someone I cannot name here - when you read this I just wanna let you know that I love you to death. I seriously do. â¥

Aaanyways...

After that I met a shitload of other deviants I became friends with. Some are really close friends too. Friends I trust. The people I can think of right now would be (Next to Gaby): Katie, Will, Rob, Eli, Max, Jen, Sarah, Alder, Frank, Amber, Jordan, Dean, Irene, Hoar and basically everyone who can be found here.

You guys make my life more colorful, without you - I'd be nothing.

ART related...

Yes, quite a lot of stuff happened here too besides finding friends for life and having fun.

Some people may remember how I started here, I submitted shots of my trips to Japan afterwards (Dammit I miss that country), but soon realized that I need to... change.

I learned how to make emotes and that resulted in receiving two Daily Deviations, to be perfectly honest with you I never expected to receive one. lmao.

I still think my "art" needs to improve a lot and I have a desire to do so but my life won't let me.
Hence the record number of absolutely craptastic 34 deviations after one year. Ain't it amazing? >_>

Anyways.

The true highlight of this year was definitely the seniorization about a week ago.
I still can't really believe it and stare up there in awe. I really want to thank each and everyone of you again, everyone who suggested me in particular. It's a true honor and I really never expected this to happen before my 1^st dA birthday.

Long story short - I love you guys. I really do. â¥

Pimpage

.: Thank You :.

â Friends â My DD Suggestions â Fave Of The Month â #BlankSex â

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

As you've probably seen already, I've been made a Senior Member of deviantART.

I seriously never ever expected this to happen so soon and it just shows me that this community seriously is the best one there is.

deviantART has brought me so much, I found amazing friends here who support me no matter what's going on.

This means so incredibly much to me, you can't even imagine.
What makes me even happier is the fact that I received seniority on the same day one of my best friends on dA did: Eli or better known as `frozenpandaman - that grave accent was WAY overdue. â¥
And another friend of mine received seniority: `ginkgografix! :')

Please take some time to congratulate all the other new seniors as well if you haven't already:

`hellobaby
`RoninsUltramix
`Endling
`DAnnsCreations
`bluem00n
`apocathary
`Princess-of-Shadows
`hakanphotography
`S-Que
`SRSmith
`Rahll
`chinaroses
`thundercake
`night-fate

You guys make my life a bit brighter, just wanted to let you know about that.

Your continuous support and dedication is what makes me return every single day.

Thank you.

â¥

In conclusion...

...I can only say that you don't have to worry, I won't turn into a snobby bitch and no, I will also not start to eat Oatmeal now.

Don't forget that I am still your normal, everyday pal you can come to if you have any problems or need someone to talk to.

I'm still Andy.

A symbol won't change that fact.

The usual salutations

Yay! Happy Chinese New Year!

...

Okay, I am not Chinese but I needed something to make the intro a little more interesting.

Hope you're all doing great!

Before we get to the main part of the journal I'd like to promote something a little and hope that you're gonna spread the word...

The Max Project

Read The News Article

=The-Max-Factor has been a member of this site for almost a year, was really close to the community, just an awesome guy.

However back in September of 2008, he had a terrible accident at work.
He loved art, loved to draw... but sadly he will not be able to do this ever again.

So what will you have to do?
You'll have to make a Get Well Soon card of any sort, look up the details in the article and Dean's latest Journal.

Please guys, even if you cannot make something, spread the word please.

Wh00tzers...

I am sick! Again! Isn't this magical?

Apparently it's a Bronchitis again. I felt like crap for days, wasn't able to check my message center... that's why everything piled up a little again. I even have to reply to some comments on my previous journal. D:
I'm really sorry, I'll try to reply to the most recent stuff though. My sickness is basically the reason why this journal is a bit late.
I'll stay at home until Wednesday, I hope I feel better by then. Being sick is not fun. ._.

Ah yes, before I forget about it, Jackie tagged all us naked people... and Trevor tagged me as well. So... I almost have to do this tag. >_>

I often miss the bus, I always manage to arrive at school on time however.

I brush my teeth thrice a day.

I love Internet memes (Or phenomena as Wikipedia likes to call them).

I usually run out of things to list at point 4.

I never realize that I often wear two different socks.

My alarm clock is usually set to 6:01am

My breakfast consists of 2 slices of toast, coffee and an apple.

I only post 7 random facts instead of 8 because I can.

That was f...

Srs bsns

Y halo thar.

Hope everyone's having great weekend!
This week has been pretty crappy so far...as some of you know, my friend had a car accident a few days ago and I have yet to see him. What his parents told me so far is still relieving, apparently he's over the worst.

Aaaaaanyway, I don't wanna make you feel bad.
So you may wonder about the title...

Manda and I had a battle of epic proportions on Skype last night. She wanted me to say Chyeah. And I refused to do it. c:
It went for about 2 hours and Will got more and more pissed off. And in the end we just continued the War of Mind to annoy Will.
And then... my computer crashed.

Srsly.

In the end we decided to call it a truce. It was fun though.

Disappointed

Am I the only one who finds his comment statistics disappointing?

He commented 41,182 times, making about 131.41 comments per day since he joined DA. This means that he gave 64 comments for every 10 that he received.

Roughly 6:1? Please...

I noticed that there has been a lot more fave&running going on lately, many people even fave your entire gallery and don't even bother to leave ONE comment at least?

I wonder what causes this?
The fact that you can drag and drop artwork into your collections from just about everywhere on the site?
Even the new SitBack feature on the Admin's pages (which I find awesome btw) - you click on the image, two options pop up:

- Go To Deviation Page
- Add To favorites

at the latter.

Ah well. I won't complain too much, I love the way the new userpages offer users to showcase even more art. And I can't wait till beta testers and seniors can test those new features too. â¥

Your music-listening habits?

I don't listen to a lot of music while I'm outside and if I do, only on longer bus trips like my way to school every morning where no one disturbs me. I can't listen to music while talking to other people... D:
So I mainly listen at home, with epic headphones. But what about you?

Oh wow.

Hai guys! :]

So yeah, I wake up this morning just to find out that I received my 2^nd Daily Deviation on :longthrow:. The reactions I got on it already surpassed my expectations but now I am just awestruck, seriously.

Guys you cannot imagine how much this means to me. I really wanna thank Rob and Travis for making this possible. You rock.

And it made me look back at almost exactly 11 months on deviantART.
I myself cannot believe what I achieved so far, I think I never experienced so much love and appreciation before.

Thanks again guys, thank you. â¥

So, what else...

Ah yes, the new CSS.
This is basically Alder's new free Green Tea CSS with a custom header.
I simply cannot separate from my wonderful OHAI. It quickly became my catchphrase! D':

Go and show Alder some love for this wonderful new CSS. I love it so much!
But I told Alder at least 100 times already.

Seriously guys, I never ever expected this, not in a hundred years!
I seriously can't tell you guys how very very much this means to me. It shows me that I'm here for a reason. And that reason... is you guys.

Without all your support, dA wouldn't be as epic as it is, it wouldn't let me return every single day to do what I love to do.

Okay, okay, you may think I am overreacting but guys... seriously. <3

Looking back at the almost 11 Months I cannot believe how much I have archived so far. And all thanks to your support and continuous praise.

You made my life a little better. And brighter.

Thanks again to all of you who voted for me, you put a huge smile on my face! And congrats to everyone else who won at the DotY awards, especially =frozenpandaman!

Thou shalt be welcometh

Good morning/evening/doomsday/whatever!

First of all I'd really like to apologize for my inactivity lately, even Katie noticed that I wasn't around as much as I usually am.

That's simply because last week was really exhausting, I had to write 3 exams and the other two days are the longest days in my week. That plus homework, learning and stuff... just killed me.

I am finally done with my exams though so yeah.

I shall be around more. And start being everywhere again.

A lot...

...of stuff happened this week, both in my life (as I just said before. ) and here on dA.
Let's see if I can recall everything. If I forgot something, feel free to spank me.

Okay, first, I'd like you to take a look at this if you haven't already:

And please also visit =suckmydisk and check out the gallery.
AND PARTICIPATE! I want to see at least 10 of my watchers sucking some disk! And remember that the shiny part of the disk is the side everyone has to see! And don't be afraid to make it MySpace-like. And shaky. JUST DO IT! Woo!

UPDATE! Support =suckmydisk with the new "I suck disk" stamp!

Normally I don't like tags if they are about nonsense stuff or facts about me no one cares about anyway.
But I love tags that I can use to feature artworks. And I got tagged by Sarah in her latest journal.
And I actually love this tag!

What's HOT on my list:

Coffee. Of course.

That was a bitch to code. And afterwards I found out that Nick had a neato tutorial on that. So basically I worked for nothing. :V

My exams are going pretty... fail so far.
The Math exam got postponed and I think I totally failed at the business studies exam.

I really didn't expect some of the tasks there, I think that really broke my neck.

Hooray.

Hey guys, how are ya all doing?

As you may have noticed, I am having a blast with my new camera.

I took so many shots already, it's insane.
It's such a good feeling holding a dSLR again. I missed that! D:

Since I used Nikon for years before I still have to get used to using a Canon properly although that shouldn't be that big of a problem.

In case you missed my photographs, here ya go:

Yes, I promote myself. I never did that before so bear with me.

If you are interested in Photography, I might have something in the Pimpage section for you to check out.

Also, CS4 is absolutely awesome.

Oh man...

On the other hand I may not have a lot of time for other stuff because all my exams are coming up...

They start on Tuesday with a math exam (And yes you may know that I fail at it) and will go on for a couple of weeks.
And I'll have an exam on every 2^nd to 3^rd day!

Ah well. After all of this I'll have some spare time because of winter holidays.

So yeah...

That brings me to another topic: Christmas!
Christmas spirit is spreading through all supermarkets and their shelves have...

I was ~~forced by~~ asked by =Fibbsy to post up a new journal so here we go.

And the winRAR is:

You did good guys, you did good...

... a massive turnout and stuff. Something that is not very common nowadays.

And if you didn't vote, don't complain about the guy who got the job.
You have no right to.
âââ

About my birthday again...

Yup, again.

NO, I didn't forget about it again, I just wanted to let you know about something:

We're having some sort of projects week at school. Bloody retarded if you ask me but no one cares about my opinion there anyway. lmfao.

So yeah. We'll be on a class trip to Nijmegen in the Netherlands on the 12th and 13th of November! Yush, on my birthday as well! D:

Some of you may think that's awesome but no, it's not. >_>

As you may know, I barely have any friends in my class.
And we'll just be in the city all day long. So I'll never have some time to be alone. And in peace. :/
Because I am sure that 70% of the peeps in my class just want to get drunk and stuff although it's not allowed.

And on my birthday we'll visit the university there.

Oh what a fun birthday I will have this year. Fuck.

On another note:

Here's a world-exclusive peek at Andy's amazing message center:

As you can see, I have quite a lot of replies to deal with and I highly doubt that I will ever catch up with it.

So yeah, I'll reply to the most recent stuff and... nuke the rest of the replies.

I hope you guys don't mind. D:

Pimpage

Now to some more entertaining stuff.
I am very proud to introduce you to a project some people, including a friend of mine: =_â Note Me â Friends â Accepted DD Suggestions â Fave Of The Month â #SMALLFRY â

Woo.

Hey there fellows. :B

Have you ever forgotten about your birthday?

While I was chatting on Skype with Robert yesterday, I noticed that I totally forgot about it.
My birthday is in a little more than 2 weeks. And I forgot about it.

Holy smokes.

So I'm gonna put this in my journal so I won't forget it:

Oh and also, I have a bronchitis and feel like utter crap.
Seriously. I am quite happy that I can stay at home the entire week.

Speaking of Robert...

Yesterday he posted a really interesting journal in which we were asked to remember how we met some particular deviants who mean a lot to us. You can read about the story of Robert and me in his journal. :]
Since it was late, I am ill and stuff, I'm just gonna post up a few stories here:

Gaby

`synconi
That was actually kinda funny. I met her on 4th March.
Yes, one day before she received her first Daily Deviation.
We were talking the same language from the first day on.
If I look back I can't believe how much has happened since then.
And I can't thank her enough for the friendship. She truly is the person who means the most to me here. >:3
_{As you may have noticed I tried not to be too cheesy. I don't wanna get on your nerves. D:
Nevertheless I still have to say I luff j00. <3 :B}

Katie

`snowmask
When I visited her page the first time I was totally impressed, looking at her artwork and her popularity and stuff. Was almost intimidating. lmfao.
As a young deviant of about 1 month I was a bit shy (In contrary to today. lmfao. >_> ) so I didn't leave a comment on her page.
It was Gaby again who told me to visit her and stuff.
The first conversation with Katie was hilarious. We talked about movies and somehow we came to the subject of Hentai. Oh god.
~~_{_{_{BTW: GIVE HER THE FREAKIN' DEVIOUSNESS AWARD ALREADY. GEEZ.}}}~~

FUCK THIS SHE ACTUALLY GOT IT. JESUS CHRIST IT WAS ABOUT FUCKING TIME.

Hello there fellow deviants!

Please take a moment to read a little of this journal.

A fellow deviant, *VampiricKitsuneKit, needs your help to
find a home for a little, abandoned kitten...

.

Next feature: Pageview #90,909*

EDIT

Dani, *VampiricKitsuneKit, noted me because she needs help to find a home for a 4-week-old male kitten.

He's been rescued from a tiny cage abandoned on the side of the road. But unfortunately, Dani cannot keep the little kitten because she already has numerous animals and her parents don't allow her to keep him.

That's him. He's a tiny little brown and black tabby, who's extremely affectionate and loves attention, and takes to snuggling around peoples' necks.

If you happen to live near Port Huron, Michigan and are interested in giving this little guy a nice and comfortable home, send a note to *VampiricKitsuneKit for further information.

I would really appreciate it if you could at least spread the word.

Thanks a lot for your attention.

*sigh*

Hey buddehs.
Thank you guys so much for all the support and wonderful comments on my last journal, means a whole lot to me.

I think it was important to let you guys know how I feel and I had a lot of wonderful conversations with you, now I know a bit more about some of you guys and I truly appreciate all the advice you guys gave me.

I know I still have to reply to some comments on that journal and a few notes - I will do that. I promise.
It's been a lot to deal with. And I'm a little behind on all my messages and stuff. XD

Okay so... it's new journal time.

And here are a few updates on everything that happened:
School started again as you may know and the routine is back. XD
Came quicker that I thought.

And within this week, there was a pretty heavy fight between 2 groups at our school, 2 had to go to the hosp...

Life

Is crap at the moment.
Idno how to say it but I feel really bad.

I talked to Katie about this already yesterday but I have the need to tell more of you.

As many of you know I don't really like living in Germany...
It's just that... I came to a point where I feel absolutely misplaced here.
I hate everything here. The schooling system, the surrounding area I live in, the people, the routine, the noise, simply anything and everything.
I feel like I'm under pressure whenever I need to talk to people I don't really know, look at their faces with a fake smile they put on in the morning when they get ready for work, out in this horrible city.

I prefer being alone, I read a lot, and think about pointless stuff to be distracted from all of this.

I live directly next to a main road, a lot of traffic, a lot of cars, meaning a lot of egoistic people in their cars; this is the road with the most accidents a year in my hometown.
This cold atmosphere is really too much now.
I've been living at this dreadful place for over 14 years now. And I can't stand waking up in the morning and face the cold, dull, soulless surface of this grey and drab city.

And the fact that the apartment house I live in is just one old piece of bullfuck that literally falls apart because the renter doesn't give a damn about this is not really making anything better. This thing looks like a damn warzone, every single week something goes kaput, I swear to god. It's a pain.

Knowing that I have to return to school tomorrow, where every single morning is the same, where I have to say hello to the people I dislike every day gives me a stomach ache.

I just want to live in peace and on my own at the moment because every person I know out there is fake and dishonest.

I simply just want to get out of here, leave this all behind.

Ah well. I guess I'm getting on your nerves with all that crap, just felt the urge to write it down.

I know I'm not the only one who has this kind of feelings.
Everyone feels this way at some point in his/her life.

Holy crap. I wrote a journal without a single emote.

Whoa.

Question tiem

What about you?
Do you feel comfortable where you live?
Or... anything else? Gah I can't come up with a good question right now.

Feature

I really hope no one will ignore my feature now. >_>

~MeganReedPhotography caught my last Pageview feature, she said she doesn't think her stuff is that great, in my opinion she has a lot of potential.

Hello hello fellow deviants.

One week of holiday has passed and I haven't really done a thing. An emote idea I've been trying to realize about 6 times already (I was never able to because my skills were not good enough at that point of time) still needs a lot of work and also I'm working on my first real flash project.
One thing: Gravity in flash is really hard to do. :V
Ah well. I already wrote the basic code but it still needs some fine-tuning.

Now that I am talking about flash...

I had teh moneyz!

And I instantly spent it again.
For what? For =flashygoodness!
Or his subscription to be exact. :U
He's a really good friend of mine.
The first time we met was on YouTube.
And since the first day we met we talked the same language.
So yeah, he really needs a lot more exposure.
He's not only a great guy, he's also fantastic when it comes to Flash.
More important is the fact that he mainly uploads his compositions. He's a very talented musician.
So please, stop by his gallery and listen to his stuff.
How? Okay, you could click on his deviant name BUT...

Favorite Of The Month?

Yes, Favorite Of The Month.
From now on I will feature one deviation of the past month I really enjoyed for one month on my shoutboard!
And later on I will include them in a separate journal, kinda like my accepted DD Suggestions.
Well and this time it happens to be Flashy's Music gallery.

Ah well, OHOHOH:

Question tiem

How do you handle your messages on dA?
Do you have a specific system?

I have one...
Journals - deviations - comments - replies - activity.
Oh and when I get notes I never instantly open them. Idno. lmfao.
That reminds me of the fact that I still have 20 notes to reply to. D:

Feature

Dear `synconi

I don't really know how to tell you this, but our romance is over. I think I realized it when your dog ran amok as you ate enchilada and I saw you ignore the crazy monk.
I'm sure you're man enough to understand that I get turned on by garbage men. I'm returning your ring to you, but I'll keep your photo as a memory. You should also know that I told my psychiatrist about a passionate interest for mice.

Go burn.

I got tagged by $FallenRox and =M-PlayC3ll.
lmfao. That was fun.
YOU! YES, YOU! CONSIDER YOURSELF TAGGED.

Hooray!
Okay, the DD hype is over but I still have to deal with about 2,000 messages. So yeah I'll be late on everything...
BUT I'll have vacation again in 2 days so I'll be able to dedicate my time to my message center.

Also, I got some of my exams back!
And in contrary to my Math exam, they turned out PRETTY well.
I got a B in Business Studies as well as Dutch!
I can't wait for the results of my English exam.

The thing is - I already had to catch up with my messages (had about 700 in my inbox when I signed off) and now I have over 800. And it's gonna be a lot more.

On top of that I'm posting a new journal as you can see.
I must be freakin' nuts. lmfao.

I got this from lolly _{And several other deviants >__>}

Oh well. =alder-sketch showed this video to me and I have to say that it's simply amazing and redefines the term "lollerskates":

I don't know about you but I started to HATE my username.
I bet you guys dunno how to spell it right because it's so freakin'... FAIL.
I made a new account simply because of that: ~Kalaydo
I guess I'll never use it though.

I don't have an idea for a heading

...but I write one cos I can.

I noticed that I lost about 20 watchers last week.
And I mean whoa - 20 is a whole lot.
Well for me it is.

It just made me think - what's the reason?
That I post up too many journals?
My stuff is not good enough for you?
Do I annoy you?

I just wanna know a reason! D:

Oh and here's my question of the week:

If you could marry anyone of the same sexual orientation (regardless if you're gay or not), who would you marry?

Crap will remain crap

You know Crap's second name?

No?

It's Google Chrome.

That thing is just one failure, it's not even funny.
The handling is WAY too much like Safari (Chrome is based on the open-source project Webkit, the same rendering engine used by Apple Safari.) and it has nothing my beloved firefox3 can't do.

Especially that OMG LYK SO NEW "one bar for everything" feature is just pathetic.

It's not new you morons! D:

Man... Google, we know you already own 89% of the internet and know everything about us but there's just no excuse for this thing.

And the most pathetic thing is that there's no Mac version.

Okay, it's just the beta but still... if they want to make this thing useful, they have to put A LOT more work into it.

Heya!

A fellow deviant needs your help! D:

Next feature: Pageview #53,535

The Problem

Hey guys!

Keith's [`zerocomplex] father was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer.
The good thing is that it's "only" a severe cyst that can be removed and wouldn't leave cancer behind.
the bad thing is that his younger sister Karel was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and only has a short time to live.
On top of that, Keith's father believes that God took the cancer away from him and gave it to his sister, so he feels guilty.

Anyway, fact is that Keith is taking donations right now!
If you want to help, You can buy a print or just donate some money to his PayPal at akhavinsky@gmail.com

Please read his journal and leave some thoughts, prayers or wishes.

I wish I'd be able to donate but I am not really able to. D:

Keith, my thoughts are with you and your family.
I really hope I am somewhat helpful and also hope that everything will turn out the best it can.

And some other news...

It took A LONG time to think but seeing as it may be impossible to catch up with my messages I will delete older ones and may not reply to some comments...
I'm so sorry but over 470 replies and almost 100 journals are a lot to handle. D:

On top of that, there are over 300 deviations waiting for me. :0
I will try to comment on the most of them though.

So don't be mad if it takes some time for me to reply, considering I'm back at school and have to study a bit.

Nevertheless, if you REALLY want to show something to me, may it be an important journal or a deviation, feel free to note me. I'll be glad to give some feedback.

So how are you today?
Anything special happened?
Already any plans for the weekend?

Hope you have a great day and take care!

Man... I almost feel bad for... raping her page with tons of comments. >_>

She missed so much...

Her getting a Grave Accent, dA's 8^th birthday, lolly's resigning from the post as a Director of Community Development... and more.

Well yeah... never thought I'd miss her so much. Like... seriously.
I visited her page like... every day. >_>

Oh well, this day is just wonderful... <3

The Balls Meme.

NO I DON'T DO TAGS SO DON'T EVEN BOTHER.

On top of this, it's a quite old meme.
But since it's a tag from my very good friend =neekko, it's something different.

How old are you?
18.

>_>

Gender?
What do you think I am?

Gender preference.

Your honest, balls-to-the-wall opinion on:

Furries.
Don't have any problems with them.
Those fursuit thingies are a bit weird though.

Fangirls/Fanboys.

Yaoi.
Well... if it's with characters you invented yourself, it's alright, the style can be very interesting if it is executed well.
If it's something you draw with other people's characters then no.
I mean those people came up with stories for their characters, including their sexuality. So don't fuck with it.

Critique, regardless of art form or genre.
I need moar. Nao.

But seriously though, I love to give feedback and critique to an artist if he wishes to receive some.

Manga-style illustration.
I love it... only if it's well executed though. >_>
And preferably with original characters.
I don't need millions of Naruto and Death Note doodles.

Manga-style illustration with a Western influence.
wat

Explanation plz.

Rap music.
All the commercial stuff nowadays is just crap.
I do like old school Hip Hop Ã la MC Hammer though.

I've been thinking...

Hey guys!

Well yeah.
You may have noticed that the number of my deviations decreased to 36.

Let me explain:

I've come to a point where I want to start over, remove all the crap I don't like that much (including ALL my photographies) from deviantART.

Don't worry, they aren't gone, I just put them in my storage.
I may put them in my scraps but that won't happen anytime soon.

I really need to focus on creating something I have fun making and looks good in the end.

At the moment I feel really bad, I felt very uncreative lately anyway and now everything piled up.

I thought about getting rid of everything as well at one point but... nah I won't do that.

Stuff I'm proud of?

That:
(wow, the rain looks way better on that dark background. lmfao. XD)

And that's it.
Don't worry, I love making emotes and will continue making them.
But I need to find new ways to create art; fulfill myself and discover my own potential.

That just sounded so damn cheesy. >_>
I'm really sorry.

Ewww~ Emo Andy is Emo.

I won't leave dA or stuff, hell no.
I' FAR too attached to this place. <3
I'll be here as much as I can, comment on stuff, critique it and so on.

I mean like wtf.
"He commented 22,228 times, making about 112.83 comments per day since he joined DA. This means that he gave 75 comments for every 10 that he received."

Lets say I like to comment anyway. :B

*headdesk*

Oh my... sorry for that... FAIL journal, I was just so hyper because of that project and stuff.
Just wanted to get rid of that journal. >_>

So yeah... just a simple question:

Tell me how you are today or this week!

I really wanna know what's up with you guys, anything challenging, any problems, concerns?
D'you have to do anything you're afraid of?

Tell me about it!

I wanna talk to you guys! ;A;

I myself had a terrible day today. D:
Just heard that my uncle had a car accident and he's currently in an hospital in Duisburg, about 32km away from my hometown.
And a major fight with one of my classmates. verbally of course.

I won.

So yeah, what's up guys?

And don't forget about the project!

ROFLZ

You won't believe what I found:

www.abfc.de

Idno what it is though, it's some REALLY crappy Fanclub site of a guy called Andi Birnbacher.
Jesus Christ, that website looks HORRIBLE.

Absolutely disgusting.

I just thought it's funny. lmfao.

INNIT =Abfc?! D:<

wat

May I rant a little? Yes...

Yanno, I love to get feedback guys, seriously.
And I appreciate faves and stuff.

But there are some people who NEVER comment and just fave EVERY SINGLE of my deviations even if it's some crap and I write DO NOT FAVE in bold letters in the description... D:

Guys, don't take me wrong, I appreciate your support and I love you guys but PLEASE, could you at least TELL me why you faved that deviation? D:

I submit stuff to improve my skills, meaning to get feedback and faves don't really help in this regard. :\

K I'm done now. :3

SO QUESTION:
Does it bug YOU if you never get comments by certain deviants or even only a few comments?
Or do you often get comments like "lol nice ill :+favvv: dat lol"?
Do you want some constructive criticism?
Cos I do.

_{I hope that made any sense whatsoever. :3}

OH AND WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MY CURSOR?! HUHHUHUHUHUHUH?

Other than that, short journal is short. <:B

Stay classy!

Hey guys!
My dear friend =holls has serious problems...
She got ripped off. :<
Some months ago, someone commissioned her.
And never payed.

She put a lot of effort into making this doll...

So basically, she decided to sell it now.
She's holding a raffle at the moment which ends on August 22nd.
If you are interested in getting it, please comment on her journal, if not, PLEASE pass the word, she went trough a lot of trouble lately and REALLY could need the money. :c

I really hope someone has a heart of gold and helps here.

I'd normally never do it but... well let's try to get this on the today page so we can give this a bit more exposure.

I'd really appreciate it.

EDIT

I'm such a freaking, fucking MORON for forgetting about it... I'm so sorry Max. ;_;

BUT GO AND CHECK THIS OUT: [link]

You! Yes, you there!

In front of the screen!

I know you want to read this.
Because this journal contains copious amounts of fail.

Yes...

Hai! :B

Wow... that was fun!
Collecting all the opinions and talking to you guys about ass-sucking stuff was hilarious.

And I'm glad that some people enjoyed the article as well!
I'm disappointed about the (at this point of time) 13(!) rejections but oh well.
I knew that many people won't like this.

I thought about doing stuff like that again - always with different topics and everything.
Tell me what you think or what the next topic should be!
I'll make a poll so you can vote for the suggestion you like the most. :3

And OMG, I fail so much for forgetting about one thing:
That I've been here for 6 months now!
6 months is NOTHING I know...
But because of you guys, I feel like I've been here for years, I met so many talented and awesome guys and gals and I thank you for all the continued support and friendships. :3
You guys are the reason I'm still here and plan to never ever leave again.
And WHOA @ 30,000 pageviews already.
Seriouslywhatthefuck.

Oh and one more thing:
SORRY SORRY SORRY if it takes some time to get back to your comments, journals and deviations, I'm really late on about... everything in my inbox right now (about 120 deviations and 570 messages D: )

I will try to comment and reply to everything though even if it'll take years.

So don't think I'm ignoring you, okay?

OHHH~ and I forgot another thing:
NEXT BIG FEATURE AT PAGEVIEW NUMBER 35,353

Yes...

Smiley Yin Yang Mailbox

Hai! :B
Oh my... I'm becoming a journal hoar. :<
Thanks for all the awesome comments even from random people on the last journal!
I had some really interesting conversations with you guys!

Anyways...

Watch this:

That video is just SO much win, it's incredible.
Totally made my day.

So I want to know:
What kind of font do you love and/or use most of the time?
And what font type do you prefer? Sans Serif or Serif?

I personally LOVE Century Gothic. <3

Oh and on a side note:
The Dark Knight is freaking EPIC. ohmigod.
I want to see it again, that's how epic it is.

And check out the features!

Oh and ~failponyplz...whatever it is.

~AndrÃ©~

EDIT

Aww man...
I had some funny conversations on `synconi's page with =Red-Bananas...
I just noticed how much I actually miss Synconi. ;_;
It's her who showed me how beautiful dA can be.
And she missed so much.
Her own seniorization, dA's 8th birthday...
I miss her uplifting words. And just talking to her in general... never thought I'd miss her that much.
I mean... I seriously miss her... :<

Meh yeah... just wanted to get that off my chest...
Not really important or anything...

Feature

This time:
Some impressions of my hometown, DÃ¼sseldorf. <3

You! Yes, you there!

In front of the screen!

I know you want to read this.
Because this journal contains copious amounts of fail.

Yes...

Oh You!

Hai!
Okay well thanks for all the nice words on my last journal - now I know why you guys like me and I'm glad I do.

Okay... so I've been thinking:

Let's talk about music!

But not some random music, I mean music that touches your heart, songs that mean a lot to you, make you cry may it be because you're happy or sad, music that awakens all sorts of feelings in you.

Classical, ballads, rock, all kinds of music have the power to make you feel in a certain way.

One of the songs that helps me in a lot of situations would be Caresse sur l'ocÃ©an from the film Les Choristes.
Such a brilliant song.
An overall well composed track which makes my heart beat a bit stronger... when I feel really down, I always get goosebumps.

So yeah... tell me about your favorite song... by that I mean your FAVORITE SONG EVER.
Not like "Oh well I like that and I like that one..."

NO!

Your favorite song of all time AND what it means to you; makes you feel like.
Don't be afraid to write long comments, I'd love to hear some background stories as well! :>

I bet it's gonna be fun to talk about. :3

SO PASS THE WORD!

EDIT

Hooray! <:U
Another one of my DD suggestions got accepted!
Take a look at it, it's win.
And cos I say so.

THOU SHALT OBEY THY MASTER.

Feature

There's a lot to feature this time!

EDIT:
HOW ON EARTH COULD I NOT FEATURE THAT.
For everyone who LOVES the old default avatar: GET THIS! NOW!

=holls story is just splendid, I personally can't wait till the next part so go and read it and give =holls some feedback!

True Directors: The Story of Jack Carter is an entertaining film one of my friends and his friend made!
He's really passionate about his film project and works a lot for it.
Take a look at it!

I know that you want to read this - because this journal contains copious amounts of fail.

Question

As you may have or have not noticed, I'm a bit... negative lately...
Idno... I feel kinda uncreative as well as unimportant and small.
Some people think I'm so UBER awesome while I think I am the complete opposite.

And as I told some of you, my so called "popularity" starts to make me feel bad.
I don't give a flying fuck about pageviews but as you may know, the majority of people just take the pageviews to rate an artist/member of this community.

And nevertheless, pageviews ARE an indicator of how many people visit your page, ergo saw your stuff, your journals etc.

And there are so many great artists who get ignored, while their work makes me feel untalented. XD

So yeah here's a question:

Why do you care?

No... the question is just...

why?

Edit

Go and read =M-PlayC3ll's journal and tell him how you are!
I think that's a great idea for a journal!

DO IT NOW! I'M SERIOUS.

Feature

LET'S GO TEAM!

Hmm...

Hey guys!
Cherries are the source from which the anoying people come from.

.
.
.
If you wanna know why, ask =Red-Bananas
That's it.

Epic Edit

CLICK PLZ
This journal (in which I'm saying that I don't deserve the attention I get) is #1 on the today-page.

Oh the irony.

But thanks guys, it's my first #1.

Hey...

I just realized something...

Beta testers are paying deviantART to be able to work for dA.

Holy Moly

Oh my goody-goodness.
I was SO happy when I saw that Amber, `TerrorCookie, got a grave accent today.
EVERYONE I know becomes a senior lately.
EVERYONE.

Oh boy.

Another thing:
I looked at my stats a few days ago and it's weird... looks like you people like my page a lot more than my stuff.
Compared to my page, my stuff gets...no attention at all. XD
I always thought that goes at least a bit hand in hand with each other but oh well.
I don't think I deserve this whole attention anyway.

Feature: =neekko

So yeah... I'm sorry, wanted to put that up yesterday but I was teh lazies. :3

So here are awesome things in =neekko's gallery!
Drop by and leave some comments - or maybe even watch him.
He's a good guy and his art is totally worth the watch.

OMGYAY

So I wake up this morning cos I got a phonecall from my uncle and he told me that he'll get Flash CS3.
For meh!

So yeah... I got Flash now. I'm really happy.

The only problem is:

The last time I used Flash is about 3 years ago - and it was Flash 8.
CS3 is SO different. >_>

And I have to learn ActionScript again.

That's gonna take a while.

OMGYAYAGAIN

`synconi

I know I said it in my last journal but Synconi got "ticked" yesterday.
I'm so happy for her.

I miss her so much. :<
dA is not the same without her. >_>

Tag

So yeah... =JurgenDoe tagged me. >_>

Err yeah. :/

I'm gonna go with Linkin Park.

`synconi

I knew that would happen!
And I'm so incredibly happy about that.
Oh my god.

I want her to return right NOW so I can do this to her:

CSS

Haaaaaay!

Wonderful innit?

I thought I'd tweak my CSS a bit, I got rid of some things and edited the images.
Quite satisfied with it actually. :3

Miscellaneous crap

One of the weirdest videos ever:

A VERY odd remix of the Japanese Werther's Original commercial.
That thing gave me nightmares.

On another note:
I just finished the basic animation of my emote, 82 frames already, more to come since I will add detail and stuff to it. :3

Feature

I thought I'd feature something again, haven't done this in a while.

I don't know what exactly the reason is why I love this shot...
I just know that I love it.
So much to tell, impossible to couch in words.

LET'S GO TEAM!

Remember...

...that nazi stamp?
I am really surprised and happy that a lot of people still reply to my comment and support my point of view. :3

Thank you!

Submissions?

Hey guise!

You may have noticed that I haven't really submitted anything AWESOME within the past... err... months?

>_>

<_<

Idno, I lack creativity and spare time.
But I have a great emote idea I am trying to realize at the moment, it's rather frustrating though cos I lack emoting skills. :/

I just don't want to disappoint all my watchers because I think I do so at the moment.

Oh wellz.

Moar Movies pl0x

You know what's bullshit? (Wait... I know that sentence from somewhere...)

That I'll have to wait till August 21st to see The Dark Knight.

Okay, I bet it's not the OMGWTF-like film but I'm sure it's entertaining.

Oh and oh my goodness, go to www.007.com and watch the latest trailer for Quantum Of Solace, wear headphones and watch it fullscreen please.

You'll love it. Oh my goodness.
