i consider it a necessary evil. but i'm just glad i'm finally done with this set. the threat of it was looming large over the holiday season, and i was afraid i wasn't going to finish like my marvel set. but i hunkered down, and busted them out, and now i can breathe easy. now i just have a couple commission heroes cards to do, and then the second marvel run starting late january. HOORAY!

i still don't like people that fav tons and tons of things. i just don't like that at all.some people think that i should just be grateful, and maybe if i was hurting for favs i should be, but i'm not, and so i can afford to be picky. i really don't appreciate getting faved by people who have accounts with nothing but favs in them, especially if their favs are on random. i like to go to people's site and see their art, not someone else's.

so i guess it all comes down to my situation. when i go to someone else's page i don't care about their favs, i just want to see their art, and when people come to mine, i want them to see the stuff i'm currently digging.

end of beef ]]> =hamdiggy http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/8414470/ http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/8414470/ Sun, 09 Apr 2006 05:01:45 PDT
You know something that really bothers me? people who favorite a million things a day. what're you faving that much shit for? to remember it? probaby not. to boost someone's score? what do you care? you know what else i don't like? random favorites. why would anyone make their favorites random? one of the major reasons for HAVING favorites, is so that you can show people who come to your site other stuff you're looking at. but if they aren't seeing what you want them to see now, then your plug is useless. i think of all the things da has done, random favorites has just encouraged people to give out favs left and right wantonly. and i think favorites should serve a purpose.

SUCH IS MY RANT!

It's been a long time coming, and I'm so relieved to finally have it done. I've tried to only upload the best art to my new gallery, and I'm creating new backdrops all the time. I hope you guys also like the new image I uploaded here. It's actually something i created ages ago, and then never uploaded here. :/

In more personal news, I'm now a line cook at a local bistro. It's a nice little place, and I'm learning very fast. The movie "Waiting" makes so much more sense to me now.

Until next time.

I do not, however, hate DeerPark. Maybe it's because i love beta software. Maybe it's because mozilla finally renders a no display td correctly. I don't know. Maybe it's because DeerPark is a superior name, in almost every aspect, to firefox. I mean, I'm all for alliteration, but come ON! DeerPark, it just... POPS! I still prefer maxthon, but if mozilla keeps going the way they're going they'll be my number two.

Opera still bites hole.

really, i mean come on. i'd love to join in your little protest, but I GOT ART TO SHOW. and now everyone's leaving and taking down galleries, and goddammit, all you're gonna do is make the site go bye bye. if you think anything, short of the legal battle currently happening, is going to change spyed's modus operandi, you are deceiving yourself.

the only thing you could possibly do is make him think this site is no longer profitable (or worse yet, a monetary loss) and he would remove or reduce the site. HEY THAT SOUNDS FUN, DON'T IT? preservation through destruction? well guess what, that sucks. like i said, i still got art to show, and there IS a legal battle happening. so until that goes through, STOP YOUR PROTESTING. protesting does nothing except raise awareness to START legal proceedings (or to incite riots). when the legal proceedings are already underway, all you're doing is mucking it up for everyone else.

and another thing, "showing your support" when you know nothing but hearsay about a topic is pretty dumb (and really, the only way to show support is monetarily). and, dare i say, sheep-like. and yes, i've read all the literature. and most of it is just jark's letter, because everything else is COMPLETELY HEARSAY. and tho jark seems like a nice enough guy, all i've heard is his side of the story, because he's trying to rally an army, while spyed is clearly keeping calm and going through the legal circuit. i don't know who did what. neither do you. YOU DONT KNOW!

anyways.

what was i saying? oh yeah. i got art to show, and no amount of "we can use your art on our site" is going to make me take down my gallery. have any of you even READ a legal document before?

i did some really rough sketches trying to figure out how aysha draws so amazingly. i think it's some combination of my theory that the more lines you make the more likely one of them is right, and the old painter's advice for blocking out areas of shape/color first. i dunno. something in between. i just know she uses a large brush to draw. and i always use a pencil thin one. so i'm trying out her technique for a little while.

oh man. funny. so like, i lowered them down again, quick get them before i change my mind and get greedy again!

i finally bought a daprints account. i didn't realize that it was only a one time fee, and i couldn't justify paying 25 dollars every month. now i'm kicking myself for not having done it sooner. curtis was all on me today. he was all 'you should get a daprints account' an i was like 'YOU should get me a daprints account' an he was all 'WHORE!' an i was all 'BITCH!'... it went on like that for awhile until he explained it was so cheap, and no excuse to not do it. so i did it.

the thing about writing your own web software... is that when you have your own homepage and journal, with scripts that you wrote yourself... you really don't feel like using someone ELSE'S journal stuff. so i rarely write anything here, or at any of the hundreds of community sites of signed up for. not the least of which is because i don't really journal that often anyways. it's mostly just for major updates and such. my life isn't fascinating enough for constant dialogue.

anyways, also i don't really see most of my stuff as printable. maybe 3 pictures in my entire repertoire can i consider wallworthy. i dunno, maybe i'm too picky, but i doubt it. i like to think i'm realistic.

oh well. hopefully now i'll make millions of bucks off my prints account :rolleyes:

ain't that a bitch. ]]> =hamdiggy http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/392228/ http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/392228/ Sat, 14 Dec 2002 23:11:16 PST [link] and check out my newest revision to my artistic contract.

i have been screwed over by so many people at this point. even people i consider to be friends. people that don't pay at all. people that send money as a gift, and then expect a drawing. people that ask for way too much in their drawing, or people that say they're not happy with a drawing and then expect me to start over.

well i took one too many hits today. and decided to make a new revised contract. having a document like this on your site ensures many things. but most of all, it means you'll never have to haggle over a price, or feel bad about charging someone. you send someone to your price page, and if they still want to buy, good deal, and if not, no skin off anyone's noses. but a contract like this also puts all the power in the artist's hands.

the person copying a piece of text from that page, and then mailing it to you, is, in essence, the same as signing a dated, legal, document. they have access to all the prices up front. they have access to all the information needed, and if they don't read it, it is because they CHOSE not to read the fine print.

if someone asks me in an email how to get a drawing done, i don't explain it to them, i simply send them to the page. i also always get paid half or all in advance. so that even if the person doesn't end up paying the final installment, at least i got SOMETHING. a page like that takes all the guesswork out of an artist's e-commerce. and i highly suggest everyone else look into making one. or feel free to use my basic contract, it's all html. just copy the source for that section of the page.

never let someone else take the advantage from you. ]]> =hamdiggy http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/379229/ http://hamdiggy.deviantart.com/journal/379229/ Fri, 06 Dec 2002 17:17:23 PST

in nigh but less than 2 months, yours truly will have reached the tender age of 21. able to do all the things i never wanted to. it's exciting. it's exhilerating. i'll probably spend it indoors. all by myself. *sigh* oh well. but maybe you could help me out. see here's the deal. (and yes, this is me being shameless) my birthday is august 9th. [link] has stated that lord of the rings: fellowship of the ring, will ship out on august 6th. that means if one of you kind souls wants to do a brother a favor, and get this boy the birthday gift he truly wants, then you too can make a wish come true. why, it's almost like the make a wish foundation, except without having to worry about a bunch of kids that're gonna die before they even get to see the movie.

yes, this has been hamilton's lowest moment. if you wish to make hamilton's birthday wish come true, scroll down here [link] til ya see lord of the rings, and then click and buy. and of course... if you get there and it's already gone, then god almighty, have no fear of hell, for it has surely frozen over. cuz no i don't have tits, and i won't sex you for buying me something on my wishlist. but maybe we can work out a little drawing.

love it. love it. i could totally see doing this for a living. though so far it's been pretty long nights getting to where i am.
