just a couple of things about random stuff
12 years ago
“And it is still true, no matter how old you are -- when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.”
First off seriously the next pages of found and probably some of the darkest things you'll ever see from me. Also I really need to point out (as a lot of people have watched me fairly recently and may not know this)
Found is NOT cannon to my character. think of it more like a movie and all the people involved are actors. once the scene ends things go back to being nice and happy okay. So for example
(who incidentally is streaming tomoro so go check him out if you dont know who he is cause he is utterly awesome) Anyway choco is Gems daddy around FA. He is NOT gems daddy in the Found series. This will become very apparant next page anyway but I just wanted to make sure people knew that Found isnt Gems real life background of her character. Gem has a nice happy little family no drama no trauma its safe.
Secondly.
As many of you who commission me know, im fairly relaxed when it comes to getting paid. I trust people so as a result I dont usually accept payment for commissions until after the picture is complete. Now this has worked perfectly for me the year and a half ive been doing commissions. But if you tell me..."Gem I cant pay you until the end of the month because I have no money" Thats really seriously perfectly fine. What isnt fine is when I randomly find the same person then going off two days later and buying commissions from people who are waay more expensive than me and who require money up front so that means you were lying to me about not being able to pay me. Dont do that okay. that will put you on my naughty list its a very very short naughty list at the moment and i really dread adding people to it. but seriously if im trusting you to be upfront and honest with me dont betray that okay cause it then becomes tricky for me to trust you again.
Third and finally.
Speaking about trust I was wondering if anyone who has commissioned me and perhaps thought i was good and reliable and suchlike might perhaps suggest me as part of the trusted artists here on this site
i've been seriously considering submitting a few people for the other half of the site being 
Im not asking just anyone to do this. It needs to come from someone who genuinely thinks i'm a trustable artist. you wont get anything from me for doing this. I was just wondering if anyone felt that they had exceptional service from me consistantly might be willing to recommend me.
Oooh and I updated my commission list http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3103509 let me know if youre not on it or anything im pretty sure ive got everyone down here. im expecting to finish that list probably by the end of the coming weekend.

I also can na wait for the next found pages,
tho you said there going to be dark themed? *grabs my plushie and a blankie*
P.S. Of course I assume good faith in you. And I would recommend you truly. I do so hope to commission some time in future.
and dark page of found "hides"
As far as found taking a dark turn, I have no problems with that at all. It feels more realistic that way, and adds some intrigue and interest, plus I've always felt there's a certain dark undertone to it that I've found fascinating. Plus, my own story is decidedly of a darker vein, so I know how hard it can be to balance that out. Keep up the phenomenal work!
Ooo that is a mean thing to do, taking advantage of your leniency like that ... I suppose it might be kind of understandable (though still not OK) if there were an artist who hardly ever has slots open and expects to be paid right away or you lose the slot. But still, that's kind of underhanded. Underpawed? Not good anyway.
I didn't know until reading this journal that there was even such a thing as an FA trusted artist/commissioner. Well you have never let me down, that's for sure!
IMO, you should not blind trust your customer, you make them paid after the sketch. Because there is always those deep idiots that come and ruin it all.
