Digital Douchebaggery

Fri Jul 3, 2009, 8:35 PM
Some of you may know that I am very much a PC person. I've never owned a Mac computer, and I probably never will. PCs are just straight up better. Sure, they have their weaknesses, but on the whole, they are cheaper, more powerful, and more versatile than Macs.

I'm not an evangelist about this, typically. If you want to use a Mac because you don't need anything more, be my guest. However, my usual tolerance of the Other OS is being tried every time I see an Apple commercial.

So, after however many iterations of the iPhone (Four, is it now?) the iPhone FINALLY has a copy/paste function. Whoop. De. Fucking. Do. My blackberry did that a year ago, when I got it. It was probably around sooner, but I don't know because I always had a shitty Motorola flip phone before that. Honestly, a copy/paste function is ludicrously simple. All it is is the ability to store a character string in memory, and draw it back later. The fact that it didn't exist before now is so mind-blowing that I can't even comprehend it. It's like having a car in which the windows don't roll down.

That's not even the only thing that irks me about the iPhone. Last time I checked, they don't even support FLASH. Seriously, Steve Jobs? Practically everything interactive on the web is in Flash. Youtube is Flash. Most site intros are in Flash. It's ubiquitous.

Admittedly, the iPhone's interface system is pretty nifty. I'll give them that. But that doesn't excuse overlooking the simplest shit in the world.

COMMISSION PROGRESS:

:iconnobodyplz: - 0% done (A secret commission for a mystery person, both of which shall remain equally mysterious to all but myself)

:iconnano-kun: - 0% done (Simple stuff, really)

ART TRADES:

1. :iconsutibaruart:
(0% done) Waiting until Suti and I are less busy...
-----------------------------
So, you want a commission, huh?

Here are the general prices. Keep in mind that they might change a bit due to the variation in people's requests.

Drawings:

$5-10 sketched and scanned (no coloring, or computer refining)

$10-15 colored vector lineart.

$15-20 Colored, shaded and touched up.

Add $3 for backgrounds.

Animations:

$30-40 Flash animations. Colored, with backgrounds. Longer or more intricate movies will be more. Also, you must specify where you want me to get the base picture from: You may ask to have one of your own pieces animated for a slightly lower price.

Rules:

1. I reserve the right to refuse to accept certain commissions. If I don't want to draw or animate a certain scene, I won't and nothing shall make me. THIS RULE IS SUPREME ABOVE ALL OTHERS.

2. Try to keep commissions within the realm of my past work. BE, hourglass, preg inflation, or things that look like it are all acceptable. Do not ask me to do balloonie, berrygirl, fat, mpreg, or anything that you think I wouldn't do.

3. Try to keep commissions doable. Don't ask for me to animate something crazily amazing, because I won't be able to. I'd LOVE to, but I simply do not command enough skills at the moment.

4. Be courteous. Don't flip a bitch if I don't accept your commissions. You'll get your turn.

5. Payments will be via Paypal. I don't do money orders, cash/checks in the mail, or Bank account-to-bank account transfers. Paypal Accounts are free for buyers, so get one if you don't have one already.

That's it. Happy shopping!

Hi, im spanish and i admire all your works. Especially the flash ones, i love them. So if I say something strange in the comments is because i have a bad english level xD You are the best. Please keep doing those great jobs ^-^
Your english sounds plenty good enough, from what I read here. But don't worry about it. You have no idea the kind of gibberish I get on here sometimes. And thanks for being a fan.

This statement is false. Deal with it.
great to hear that things are getting better for you!

see ya later. Bai.
Hi! My name is Yori, and I have to say, I'm a big fan of your work! I've been looking at your deviations and comments, and it made me happy to see that someone here on DeviantArt knows the true meaning of "Freedom Of Speech." :D Sorry if I may seem as a nuisance in anyway. I can understand if I am one, but hey, that's just me.
No problem, it's always good to hear from a like-minded person. And its especially rare for that person to be a girl.

Well you'd be surprised. I don't really believe that anyone or anything is normal, so to me, it can be anyone. Besides, I think fertility is a great thing since it brings new life into the world.
When I got really lonely, my counsellor got me to go do volunteer work, just once a week for a couple of hours or so helping in a community kitchen. The people coming to places like that don't have much to do and so are happy to talk for long periods. They also tend to be a lot less judgemental.

It may sound like a waste of time but you generally get a free feed and unlike a paying job, people are glad you came to help.

On the subject of getting a girlfriend, relax. A) a partner won't make you whole, B) as we get older, the female to male ratio goes up :) so your chances improve.

I strongly suggest you see a counsellor (different from psychiatrist), most universities have them with the on campus doctors (at least here in Australia). I wish I had gone to see them back when I was still in high school. The three things that were recommended to me that helped a lot (other than the volunteering) where:
1) Wake up at the same time each day in the morning, even if it means you only get a short sleep. This will help you sleep deeper at night.
2) Walk for about a half hour or so (at least) each day in a continuous block. It helps calm you down, clears your head a bit.
3) Join a group that has weekly/fortnightly activities and make sure you go. This can be anything from an anime club to a sport team or even a youth group (if your the religious type). The larger the club/whatever and the cheaper the participation costs, the better.

Lastly, stick with the engineering. When feeling like this, people strongly desire change. You may feel you can't change your social life so you change something else, but the relief would only be temporary (trust me, I've been there.)

Anyway, things only get worse if you get desperate, because it drives people away. So relax.

TLDR: See a counsellor, they help.

I read your journal, and i just wanted to say...

Hang in there man! We all have hard times in our lives where shit just seems to get worse and worse.

All I can say about the girlfriend thing is... Keep Looking! you can find love in the most unexpected places. I for instance met my girlfriend on a DBZ roleplay forum and found out she only lived an hour's drive away!

But I feel for you man... I was in the same place you were once. But if you stay strong and keep on flippin that middle finger to all the shit that tries to get you down... It will all pass before you know it.

so once again... Stay strong man, and don't let people get you down, or you lose the game.
