Sorry as the only excuse is that I am still swamped with work. But um, I still want to draw a lot! It makes me sad that drawing for fun is such a rarity since after a long day of work art I don't have energy to come home and do more.

But yeah! Um, I finally got a tumblr!

There's nothing on there yet! But follow me if you'd like! I'll be posting this and that and probably stupid sketches rather than more finished work here.

She swore never to write again because she couldn't understand why people were upset that she used my idea. So basically, I don't even know if I can call this a victory on my part because she didn't learn her lesson nor understood the seriousness and repercussions of Plagiarism. Oh well.

Some of you might already know that I had lost my job at Meteor Games (Island Paradise, Neopets: Treasure Keepers, Serf Wars). In fact, everyone who worked there lost their jobs, because the company went under. The social gaming scene is a bloody and fierce place.

Despite the fall, it was truly a wonderful place to work, with the coolest most talented people, and I was very fortunate to have been a part of it. I walked away with nothing but good experiences and lifelong friends.

1) Ask my permission
2) Give credit in your comments. If you can provide a link back to where you found the original source that would be great as well.
3) Don't use it for profit.

THAT IS ALL.

And yet people get all defensive when my watchers or even myself tell them to CREDIT ME when they post something up that obviously was referenced off (or sometimes out-right traced which is bordering on art theft), and then don't even to bother putting in their artist's comments that the idea is not theirs.

Here on DA over the years, I've seen a lot of it happen to artists here and there and I've seen how people handle it.

I've also seen people leave their accounts or deactivate them and others who threaten to do it, and I'm going to post my response that I had to someone's journal on the issue here:

It all started with :iconblaezfolf: inviting :iconmochiroo: and myself to Wizard World Comic Con in Anaheim for a day, which is more his brand of geekdom than ours. We didn't mind going since I'm still into that stuff, but the main reason we wanted to go was so we could hang out and see him again.

When we got there, it was kinda cool. Like a little mini comic con, and I guess people mainly go for the celebrities that are literally lined up in like three rows sitting behind booths just selling their autographs. At this point, we were like, okay, this is pretty fun, and interesting.

First things first, before you get the surgery, research the surgeon that you think would be right for performing the procedure on you. Find out their credentials, their qualifications, their rates of success, etc.
