The most I will be able to do during my moments online will be to check my club for new members and maybe make a few quick submissions if I can find time for art. But for now, a majority of my activity and free time will be restricted to study.

Man, I hope I make it this time...I seriously need the shore duty.

Heck, even FMA didn't get to me until I saw the episode with Nina.
As far as Storm Hawks is concerned, I'm looking forward to 04Jun07 for the next episode.
Who knows...I may start turning out fan art before the first season gets firmly established!

Tune into Cartoon Network and see the show for yourselves! Check your listings!

I think my last "good" birthday was when I was 14. Since then its been like a downhill spiral, and it seemed more like a bother for people to remember that I had been born.
I mean, if its that much of a burden when it comes to the day I was born, what will happen on the day that I die?

Will anyone care? Remember that I even exsisted? Or will I just be, and disappear?

As far as TMNT goes...I have absolutely ZERO complaints!

The movie was great! Action and animation was clean and very gripping. I found myself getting into the scenes, just like I did as a kid watching the TV shows. And the personalities of the turtles were not altered or butchered, and that was the greatest relief.

I will not post movie spoilers here. If you are an old school Turtles fan, this is a film you won't want to miss! I guarentee, you will be impressed.

Military advancement exams are never easy. You need to know everything that encompasses your rate/job, leadership skills, basic military law and regulations, Uniform knowledge, history, and most recently anti-terrorism questionaires.
Its quite a bit of a boggle for one exam and I'll have two hours to complete it. And you college students think you've got it rough? ^_^

Anyhoo, wish me well for this next exam cycle. Hope I make it this time!

When I browse art, I always try to make a point to comment on all artworks that catch my interest or are added to my Favorites.

If you find something in my gallery that you like, please leave a comment if you choose to or .

Its greatly appreciated if you leave constructive critisism, because I know there is always room for improvement.
If you don't have any constructive critisism to give, the comment on why or what you liked about the art. If I know what the puplic likes, then I may repeat the currently good processes.

Thanks! Keep on with the art folks!

All I have to say to people like that is, "So what?"

Who really cares about the religious aspect? People are too focused on being offended that we've all lost sight on the whole "Joyful" meaning behind the holiday season. It used to be all about family, friends, enjoyment of indulging in food and drink. Y'know, that old mythical time when folks actually spent time together and enjoyed the company of one another, singing songs, exchanging gifts, and for once putting others before oneself.

These were the golden times, when all sins and wrongs of the year past would be left behind and forgiven to allow for a fresh new year of inevitable mistakes.
A time of warmth, instead of today's chill of the common cold shoulder of modern society.

We, as a country, are becoming our own worst enemy, and are destroying our own rights. Everyone wants to jump forth and claim religious rights, and demand retribution. Seems that so called "Freedom of Religion" is slapping us in the face and quickly becoming more of a "Freedom of Oppression".

As for me? I believe in freedom of CELEBRATION. I don't care who or what you believe in, so long as the company is welcomed and enjoyed.

Christmas isn't just another holiday on the calander to challenge with "Religious Rights". This is the one time of the year where people can become something more than just people.

This is supposed to be the time of year when we "Humanize" with one another. Celebrate just being together. Give out FREE HUGS. Share stories and memories. Eat turkey, ham, kosher, and implode on cookies! That old "Good Will towards your Fellow Man" attitude. Bring back the good times, and don't reflect on the sour past.

Let's all just Celebrate for the sake of Celebration. Is that not good enough? Or is it just not worth celebrating at all?

Or do you think we'd have better chance at achieving World Peace?

What do you think?

Now first of all, I gave all the proper credit to Pokémon creator Satoshi Tajiri, and Ninteno/Creatures Inc./GAME FREAK Inc. who own the Videogames. What more did I require?

Also...if a Violation was the case, then why were my other Phylleon sprites not reported? And why not try to work this out with me BEFORE they went and deleted my submitted art?

Fans and friends, read their message, and tell me that this isn't just the biggest load of CRAP to get dumped on me.

I already wrote an inquiry about this mistake on their part, but I don't know if they will re-instate my images, or if I'll have to re-submit them. Man, that was alot of time and information to type up again.
Not to mention it would be a wasted effort if they go and delete my stuff again. They should really take a more consultive path to solve these problems on a more lower level...especially for those of us who have NEVER had any violations on DA...EVER.

And here I thought DeviantArt would be a more secure community without wrongful accusations and ignorant admin actions.
Guess my expectations were too high. *sigh*

Well, since no one seemed to care or lend an opinion to my idea of starting a new account centered around my Fan-Fiction writing ([link]), I went ahead and made the account.

Fan-Fictions by me and co-written by me will soon be added into the account. Most co-writes were written through Role Play, and the fellow co-writers will also be credited.

***!!!Previously!!!***
I recently submitted a Pokémon sprite of an Eevee plant evolution, and I can't figure out a name for the little critter.

Naturally it'll have to be "Something-eon" to follow along with the name theme cliché, but my brain can't seem to process a cool name, so I'm leaving it open to the public to suggest names for the little green thing.

You can find the critter in my gallery, or just click these:
[link] [link]

Please post your suggestions for a name on either submission. Thanks to all those who contribute!

***!!!UPDATE!!!***

Seems that the new Pokémon Diamond/Pearl games have a plant type Eevee-evo already. Its called Leafia (Riifuia in Japan) and it evolves when you train it around the "Moss Rock".
I think it looks too much like a cat with a super swishy tail. You can see it here along with the Ice Eevee-evo Glacia (Gureishia in Japan)(Thanks ~windbladeicepuppy!):[link]
Also, I have the animated Pokédex icons of the two evos for those interested in viewing them.
Leafia (Riifuia): [link]
Glacia (Gureishia): [link]
I'll be looking to Rip the actual sprites later on, but I still like my little critter better. ^_^

Also, as far as a name is concerned, since the new one in the game is named "Leafia" then "Leafeon/Leafleon" is a null and void option. Right now, I'm starting to like the name: Phylleon
Phylleon is derived from the greek word - Phyllon which means "Leaf". I thought of it when I was going through some old biology notes on Chlorophyll, the green photosynthetic pigment found in most plants, and algae. Yes, I know I'm a super science geek.
The Word Chlorophyll is derived of the combined greek terms:
Chloros(Green) + Phyllon(Leaf)
Not bad huh? Pretty original? Thanks to everyone who contributed name suggestions! I appreciate the help! It was truly inspiring!

Yeah, I submitted a bunch of sprites recently. I had them all stored up and have been a bit lazy to load them.

There are still more to come, but for now I've got a bit of an inbox of ideas to put down on paper, so I'm gonna be working on my pencil drawings for a bit.

Art has always been one of my favorite activities and past times. Drawing and pixel art have become my most common practices as of late.

Almost all my productions are Anime in style, but all creations are originals I cooked up in my head. I can't seem to get down the art of Mecha though, as much as I'd like, and I suck at buildings, backgrounds and vehicles. But characters, animals and fantasy creatres are no problem what so ever.

In my spare time, I like to design sprites for my friends and webpages. I mostly take requests, or whatever catches my attention for a good challenging idea. I design them based on the proportions of old anime video game graphics(Sailor Moon Puzzle Game) but all these graphic characters are by my own design, with some cameos of the original game characters(The Sailor Moon ones). These are easy and fun, so that's why I like them.

And there I am. ]]> ~Saturn848
