                <description><![CDATA[ <b>First journal update in......... Forever!</b><br /><br />I've been incredibly busy lately, life is crazy! But i've finally bought myself a gift : My very own Ball-jointed doll!<br /><br />As an artist i've always thought they were fascinating and beautiful but could never afford one, I knew of cheaper dolls but none of the molds ever hit me as worth it anyway.<br /><br />Until I found her <3 My little Bobobie Sprite.<br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/Image564.jpg"></img><br /><br /><cut text="CLICK HERE FOR PICS AND INFO + PIMPING"><br /><br />My little doll is probably one of the cheapest out there but her face is puuure love I knew right away i'd have to mod her to make her perfect (and i'm still working on it) but every little sweat is worth it.<br /><br /><sub><b>Things I have done:</b><br /><br />Cut & Sanded the ridiculously long elf ears.<br />Restrung with stronger elastics<br />changed the eyes<br />Redone the faceup <br />Bought her clothes & Shoes<br />Restyled (cut) the wig.<br /><br /><b>Things I have yet to do:</b><br /><br />Body blushing<br />Improve the ball-joints (the Bobobie bodies are......bleh.)><br />Improve the shape of the body.(they're also not incredibly pretty)</sub><br /><br /><b>So here's a little gallery of her so far:</b><br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/100_0597-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket"><br /><br />don't mind the mess behind her (and the funky painting)<br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/Image566-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket"><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/Image569-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket"><br /><br /><b>SO! To all dolls owners out there! Pimp out yours dolls! I want to see them all, I want to know what company they're from and what you've changed on them. I don't care whether they're bobobies, volks, obitsus or homemade, just pimp!<br /><br />Oh! And almost forgot!</b> Soon after I bought my doll, <a href="http://niwlun.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/i/niwlun.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconniwlun:" title="niwlun"/></a> bought her own as well!<br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/Image560-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket"><br />She's a dollzone MSD Fenyo <3<br /><br />(I had a kick sanding her overly pointed nose and putting on her lashes......... although giving her lashes was more of a pain in the butt)<br /><br /><b> PFFFFFFTTTT apparently I forgot someone else! <a href="http://pheyl.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/h/pheyl.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconpheyl:" title="pheyl"/></a> has also recently purchased his first doll, a second hand Angel of Dream Rao we intend to polish and patch to perfection.<br /><br /><img src="http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h207/Ramaon/Doll/DSCN6385-1.jpg"></img><br /><sub> thepoorthing.<br /><br /><br /></sub><br /><br /></b></img></img></img></img></cut> ]]></description>

<br />
3. I'll tell you what color you are<br />
<br />
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me. And depending on my mood, it may not make sense to us, either.<br />
<br />
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.<br />
<br />
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.<br />
<br />
7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.<br />

Ahaha, got tagged (OMG-ness!) by <a href="http://shinaru.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/h/shinaru.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="shinaru" /></a> ! <br />
<br />
Oh god... 20 things about me.. this is going to take FOREVER to write...<br />
<br />
1) I LOVE talking in front of many people, (yeah, yeah, weird, i know!)<br />
<br />
2) Sotha (The main character from my story!) was also my imaginary friend that no one knew I had.<br />
<br />
3) I was ultra quiet and shy as a child and used to cry a lot for small things.<br />
<br />
4) I tried to learn how to paint when I was 9, but the teacher said I was talentless and that I wouldn't <br />
do anything artistic in my entire life, so I gave up and stopped drawing for 5 years (and told my parents that I didn't like painting, LOL!)<br />
<br />
5) I NEVER, EVER seriously wanted to be a popular artist (Yeah, i know, i'm not popular either, but I wouldn't like to be anyway, why? Well... I wouldn't want to get 'faved' or watched' simply because I have a lot of pageviews.)<br />
<br />
6) I Hate anthro (furry)... Seriously... Sorry... But i can't stand half of it.<br />
<br />
7) I don't mind manga and anime, and I can enjoy it, but I hate it when  people use it as an excuse to draw without considering at least some rules of the human body anatomy.<br />
<br />
8) I think Salvador Dali is just------- teh  AWESOME-ness !<br />
<br />
9) *Has nothing else to say..* hehhhh... I love to sing, but my voice's horrible.<br />
<br />
10) The thing that scares me the most is to wake up one morning and be unable to draw.<br />
<br />
11) I used to hate school, but now that i'm in college, I can't get enough of it.<br />
<br />
12) I was born at 5:30 pm, in time for supper.<br />
<br />
13) I'm actually extremely depressed when I wake up.<br />
<br />
14) .... But i'm back to my bouncy happy self two minutes later.<br />
<br />
15) I think respect is a two-ways thing. I will respect you as long as you respect me, even if i don't <br />
like you much.<br />
<br />
16) I think it's sad that some people think the right to say that someone's drawing or art is ugly. <br />
Beauty is relative, besides, this is NOT contructive criticism.<br />
<br />
17) I usually don't do those kinds of littles tests, but hey, it sounded fun!<br />
<br />
18) My dreams look like movies, complete with the cheezy clichés.<br />
<br />
19) I LOVE kids, they make me happy. <br />
<br />
20) I love french, and you know what? I'm not even ashamed ot it!<br />
<br />
<br />
ANNNDDD I'MMMM TAGGINGGG!!<br />

<b><a href="http://www.ramaon.com"> ramaon's web site </a></b></img><br /><br /><strong>Mood</strong>: <img style="vertical-align: middle" src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/sarcasticclap.gif" alt="Cynical" title="Cynical" /> Moo!<br /><strong>Listening to</strong>: Shiina Ringo - Kabukichou no Jou<br /><strong>Reading</strong>: Thief of lives<br /><br /><img src="http://www.ramaon.com/random.gif"><br />
<br />
On with the rambling.<br />
<br />
I just don't know how to say this, but lately i've been wondering "What is art anyway?". What makes something art and another thing just a piece of crap? <br />
<br />
It's sad in a way, that some people think that art is something you can't do without a diploma, don't get me wrong, but I think that even with the best techniques EVER, a drawing can be just meaningless scribbles.<br />
<br />
Have you ever looked at a drawing and thought "It looks empty"?<br />
<br />
No, i'm not talking about the amount of white/blank space in the sheet of paper, i'm talking about the art itself, the eyes of the characters. You don't feel like they're 'alive', not like they're going to start chatting about their life and how they are. <br />
<br />
OK that was a bit dramatically put.<br />
<br />
What I mean is, sometimes I look at drawing made by a professionnal and wonder "What's so great about it? Right the coloring's beatiful, the proportions are great... So.. What's wrong with it?"<br />
<br />
On the other hand, I can find a drawing made by an amateur and stay speechless over it for a long, loong time.<br />
<br />
So, do drawings actually have a soul?<br />
<br />
Ok, I sound crazy now, do I?<br />
<br />
But let's look at this definition of soul: <br />
<i>" A strong, deeply felt emotion conveyed by a speaker, a performer, or an artist."</i><br />
<br />
So... We're artists right? What if we actually put some of our soul... uh.. No, that's also pretty dramatic...<br />
<br />
Ok, What if we were actually sharing our soul with our drawings? Sharing our emotions through our characters, our landscapes, wallpapers, skins (Hey, art is everywhere!).<br />
<br />
Well, I think that's what makes art, art. This soul we put into it. Professionnal or amateur, I don't think it matters as long as we draw because we love to draw.<br />
<br />
Now whether you want to proove me wrong, or proove me right, do it politely please <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" />, making fun of me would be totally pointless and, yes, really dumb. Thank you!<br />
<br />
                                 Deeply sorry if this traumatized you,<br />
                                        Ramaon<br />
<br />
Nota Bene : This was <u>NOT</u> aimed at anybody in particular, I don't want ANY death threats because you feel insulted (pulease? <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mad.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":X" title=":X (Mad)" />D)<br />
<br />
<br />
Because..... I LOVE YOU ALL! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /><br />

I'm cleaning up my journals, god i was so dumb 2 years ago... I'm also going to delete some of my drawings, or scrap them, I know, you don't care but I wanted to warn eveybody in case you were wondering XD *end of edit*</img></img><br /><br /><i>When we're new to art, we're attracted to what's beautiful.<br />

<br />
Deviantart is definitely going through a major crisis.<br />
<br />
But here i stand, in the middle, wondering WHAT exactly caused the crisis. Are we(the community) over reacting? Should we be more insisting?<br />
<br />
I think not.<br />
<br />
My opinion as won me many ennemies ( it seems ) and so, i want to clarify certain things.<br />
<br />
-I do NOT support the 'new' staff members, but i don't want to overthrow them either, i'm simply waiting for a FULL answer. THEN, only THEN i'll choose my side.<br />
<br />
-I feel some (a lot of...) sympathy for Jark and seriously hope he'll find some comfort in the many many deviations dedicated to him. I respect him and the things he's done for the community.<br />
<br />
-I was a bit nervous when i heard the rumors about deviantart becomming a corporation... But then i remembered what a corporation is about. YES, it needs money to run, but what doesn't? I don't mean to insult anybody but... Does anybody REALLY know what a corporation is about? i DON'T think a corporation can keep us, the members(subscribers or not), those who made and keep deviantart alive, less of a community. <br />
<br />
Then again, I DO NOT want deviantart to become money-centered. I love our (it's ours as much as it is the staff member's) deviantart the way it is. I won't side on this matter either. I want the staff member to show us the advantages and disavantages of it.<br />
<br />
-I believe we deserve the truth, but rude words, threats, sending lawyers or bombs WON'T HELP. Those yellow letters are VERY cute and to the job just fine (even though the staff members can choose to ignore them.... well let's see if they can ignore a hundred thousand of them). <br />
<br />
No, i haven't posted or faved one yet. I intend to, i promise, but i won't fave one about threats and anger, we want the truth, not a riot.<br />
<br />
-I'm not asking people to do the same as me, I chose to stand aside from the fight until i can see what it really is about for my own, personal reasons. If you wish to take sides with Jark, or Spyed, then it's fine with me. But please, respect what the others have to say(respect is a two ways thing.... i'm not saying you should thank someone who's insulting you o_ô). <br />
<br />
Well, I think that's it, thank you for reading and sorry for the long..... very long, explanation. <br />
<br />
Nota Bene: If you want to proove me wrong, or proove me right, go ahead, I want to understand and if you feel you can help me do so, please do it in a polite way <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /><br />
<br />
(yes, my english is poor, please don't insult me about it, it would be pointless)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
How are you?<br />
<br />
Neh, i'm bothering you I know....<br />
<br />
But there some things i really need to tell you *nods nods*, they're not directed at anybody in particular, and certainly don't concern all of my watchers.<br />
<br />
First: If you fave one of my drawing, can you please pleeeeaaasseee post a comment about WHY you faved it? I know it's very weird to as kthis ( and believe me i DO enjoy the faves) but in my head, one comment is worth 50 faves. I really like to know what's good and what's wrong about my drawings.<br />
<br />
Second: I said I loved constructive criticism, yes, but 'HAHAH YOU SUCK' doesn't count as one. OK, you think my drawing sucks, but why? TELL ME WHY! I want to know. <br />
<br />
Third: One word comments... like 'wow!' 'awesome' and 'geez!' And really cute and all XD <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /> and i don't mean to be an evil bitch when i say this but..... Could you elaborate a bit? >_>;;;; Constructive criticism maybe? Don't blame me, CC is the ONLY way I can get better, so pleaaaasseeeee? pretty pretty please?<br />
<br />
Fourth: One of my tutorial got its 1000th hit <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" /> OMG THANK YOU EVERYBODY! <b> THIS IS JUST A SUGGESTION</b> but could you please (pretty pretty please) send me a link to your deviation if you use my tutorial? Hm? Hey i'd like to comment on it! and you have one fave for sure.<br />
<br />
Fifth: I LOVE YOU! <br />
<br />
