I'll still use it for stuff I don't want on my new account but for now I feel it's time for me to have a new main one and start over.<br /><br />I won't be deactivating this one but don't expect it to be used again any time soon. Anyone who would like the name of my new account, please send me a note :)<br /><br />People I owe commissions to (I think there are two left) will be noted with the finished product, but it will be uploaded here anyway. ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ My piece of shit tablet occasionally works but it's inconsistent and I'm hopelessly out of practice and suck now. So if I want to carry on doing lessons and commissions, I need to sharpen up so I'm aiming to do  a series of headshots to get used to colouring again and do them regularly (like a strict once a week, once a fortnight thing but no more than once a week because I work and study) to discipline myself. So what series of headshots should I do? Disney? Futurama? Zelda? YGO? What do you suggest? ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ Hey guys, gonna start seriously advertising my digital art lessons (I do them in person and online. Face to face sessions are an hour, online ones are 2 just because it takes longer.). If I can get ten students a week at £10 a lesson, that's an apprenticeship's 40 hour work week wage done in 10. So PLEASE if you're interested, contact me for more info or if you know someone who might be interested, forward them my details. But what I wanted to ask was I'm going to make up some business cards for mama bear to pass out at college. What image of mine should I put on them? Or should I create a new one? ANY input at all would be appreciated.  ]]></media:text>

I need something that will run Photoshop quickly and effectively, is fast, doesn't overheat, generous memory etc. I love my ASUS, should I stick with the ASUS line?<br /><br />Please, digital artists, I need your feedback!

I don't want to go into the embarrassing details here, but we need some extra cash and fast so I'm opening $3 sketch commissions because I think that's cheap enough that people might consider out of pure charity XD<br /><br />A sketch will be like this :thumb210994816: or this :thumb215099775: or at the black line level of one of these :thumb287721868: if I can.<br /><br />Ideally, I'd like ten slots filled.

Show me a piece of yours (preferably digital, but traditional is fine too ^^) that you're really proud of and tell me why you love it.  Also, if you have an OC you're really proud of, show me him/her too and why you're so happy with your design. It can be one or two pieces if you can't settle on one ^^<br /><br /> ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ Please read:<br /><br />Ok, so we're kind of going through one of those spells where we're really struggling for money. We sometimes struggle to buy food. Try as I might, I can't get a job, and now we're down another £100 a month which doesn't sound much but that means I can't afford to pay for my phone contract so that'll make things difficult but more importantly, we're really struggling to care for our cats. We have emergency vet bills to deal with. Mummy cat has a severe infection so we need to pay for her treatment. And because she's so ill, her kittens have been rejected so I need to care for them which means we need to pay for kitten milk.  ]]></media:text>

Probably just time XD<br /><br />[side note: when do you all finish for Christmas and who else thought the X Factor final was a load of bollocks? I mean fixed for Cher to be in, One Direction coming third, Matt winning, Take That on AGAIN singing The Flood AGAIN... snore...] ]]></media:text>

I have five essays to do in four weeks D=  And three big pictures I'd rather like to finish.<br /><br />Dude, thith thuckths.<br /><br />In other news, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 was AWESOME! And that's saying something, I usually hate the films. Can't WAIT for part two! Should be spectacular. Sad, but spectacular. ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ A silly light little journal for you until I can be bothered to write a decent update like I keep promising to XD<br /><br /> The truly lovely :devAaliyan: tagged me with this and told me to do Eric. And I as looking for pictures to put here as thumbnails for him when I realised I've never drawn him on his own! Or with Ishida, come to that. That must be remedied! Anyway, yeah.<br /><br />Rules:<br />Post these rules <br />Post 8 facts about your character <br />Tag 8 other characters <br />Post their names with the creator's avatars<br /><br />So, Eric Mercer from More To Life... which I will rewrite a third time.<br /><br />1. Eric's birthday is 23rd January. When he marries Ishida, he is twenty. ]]></media:text>
