Entry One: Brand New Year
16 years ago
I have been part of the furry fandom since about 1998 sometime. I have lasted this long, but because I have recently made a freind or two WITH an FA account... I shall succumb and create a place for myself here. Why? Well why the hell not. Its a place where I can upload some junk and see if its something I'll stick with. Eh?! :D
I have a DeviantArt account but I only used it once a twice for ____some other place I'd rather not mention____. Mainly because it isn't worth it. Its the beginning of a new year - and I'd like to start off with something shiny and that's a new FA Account. So new, it's my very first one. :)
Now, what sort of art do I do!?
Well I could probably manage to draw you in doodle format - or possibly craptastic stick figures with a swoopy for a tail and arrow ups for ears or possibly eyes.... but I shan't curse you with such base forms of drawing. Instead i'll share with you some of the photography work I have completed within the great world known online as "That crappy second life thing people keep disappearing to."
No no, I don't copy the avatars and line draw them and color them in. In fact - I take some rather pretty pictures. I take some funny crappy quality ones too :D But its those that delve more into the realm of fine art - furry style... through the use of all the tools SL Provides to someone with a more photographic nature. I'll upload a few I've taken - and hopefully this year, I'll be able to take a whole lot more.
Do I edit them? yes - but not always... do I fix problems with the avatar? Sometimes... but not always. Sometimes, the avatar is better left alone - and sometimes I'll fix minor problems such as prim seams to help bring across the emotion or feel of the avatar or person/fursona that is beign portrayed. Touch ups...
My vow - well okay I'll just try real hard.. to remember to document the things I've done to the picture - and post it along with the image. So you can see what I did to it. Why? I dunno, glutton for punishment.
Now, I don't mind critiques - but keep in mind, I'm used to REAL critiques, not just shitty comments about how much you think it sucks compared to whoever you think is god.
If you don't have something serious to say and have good input - I don't care to hear it. You have a serious comment, WITH a good thought out suggestion - I'm willing to hear it.
Will I reply? I don't know. I tend to get wordy and quite frankly... I don't think there is much need to reply - unless you ask me something specific.
Do I plan to update often? no. Because I just know I won't. Spurts will probably be the way I utilize this.. although who knows. I might really enjoy using FA more than I did DA. We'll just have to see.
So journal entry one... what else have we to say?
Well I suppose I might post a little info about myself - for those interested in me for... who knows what possible reason they might have. I co-own a sim with my RL mate/partner/loveofmylife. We've been through some ups and downs - and currently we're trying to help keep our SL Community alive. Vashir is our home sim - and we and all our friends care about it greatly. Recently we've decided to do something kinda funky with it, and why not!? It's SL MAN! You can do anything in SL that you CAN'T do in RL - like, Live underwater! As much as we pretend we are one thing or another, we're pretending that the water does not actually go into the homes and or that you can breath under there if your that anal about it. Yes I too wish you could 'take out' space under water - but if you edit your water settings, or use some presets you can get some beautiful results. Same with the air settings. Very neat. :)
So lets see, Club Furvana... ahh what a slave driver. Well I've cut it off my plate - too much going on and last year was extremely tough trying to pull it all off, and now that we own the sim - the bigger picture of making sure the whole sim makes money, seems a lot more important. School started tonight, and RL is picking up around that too. Life is going full swing again and I just couldn't see stressing over the club for another year. I will miss caring for it in Badwolf's absence but its time I moved on, and hopefully those in replacement of my rather large pawprints will make it even better. :)
Welp! Without going on about the sim, and what is on offer there, or what we did in class tonight... or jabbering about photography stuffs - or what silly projects I'm working on, or what movies I am wanting to watch this week..... I'll end my journal here.
I have never used a service as much as I have used NetFlix - Thanks to them, I can fullfill my need of dry british humor and sitcoms. To quote one my all time favorite characters...
"FISH!"
All my love,
