        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ So, I'll start off at the beginning...<br /><br />I've been drinkin' a bit. Nothin' crazy, just the usual. I check deviantart like I do every day and find a note. I like when I find these because 9 out of 10 times, it's someone lookin' for some freelance art.<br /><br />So, I read the note, and about 5 sentences in, I read "no pay"... For a 14 page job...<br /><br />I understand its tough to get projects goin', and money is usually tight, but this isn't the way to get quality work on your book.<br /><br />Anyway, here's my response. I hope you guys enjoy it, and don't work for free. Enjoy:<br /><br />Hi ?????,<br /><br />Thank you for the kind words!<br /><br />I stopped reading after "non paid".

(but historical figures, more obscure characters, people from books and movies are all really cool)<br /><br />cost: $50 (plus $5 for shipping within the lower 48 states)<br /><br />this will work  ]]></media:text>

(is that bad?)<br /><br />oni might be knocking on my door pretty soon, also. but they've kept me waiting around for quite some time, now. its gotten to the point where im pretty disappoioned with they way they keep in touch/do business. but thats a different story all together.<br /><br />team awesome:<br />:iconajrjr13: :iconkajusx: :iconxshaunx:  ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ ...fuck you! my parents were nice enough to buy me a scanner for christmas. i got a mustek A3 1200ub scanner. its 11"x17" so i can scan my larger artwork. it came in the mail the other day and i finally had a chance to install it. 3 hours, and a ton of frustration later and the thing isn't installed because its not compatable for windows vista 64. i tried every site i could find that had a way around it with different drivers but nothing worked.im going to draw... now that i've vented. ]]></media:text>
