Regarding my recent depression and other updates...

General
I'm feeling much better now. I probably won't be responding to every comment on the related picture, as most of them carried roughly the same tune, or have been responded to more directly already, so I just wanted to make a quick journal thanking everyone for their support.
Most of the comments and messages I received did help a bit. Others, admittedly, filled me with a blinding rage, but I recognize that you all had good intentions, even if some of you had extremely poor execution of those intentions. Either way, the thought is not lost on me now that I'm thinking a bit more clearly. Thank you all.
That aside, the animation's going as well as can be expected. 152 frames down, X to go. Now comes another awkward issue of Pencil (my animating program) where the timeline won't stretch past 170 or so unless you painstakingly place a key right on the end, stretching it by two, and another after that, stretching it by another two, so on ad nausium. I'm going to try doing the remainder of it in a separate file and then stapling the two together. This also has the added benefit of me not needing to worry that the first part is going to get screwed up anymore, so there is that. :P
If all goes well, I'm really hoping to have this done within the week.
The job hunt goes less stellar. Everywhere that's interested is full for at least a couple more weeks, until the collage kids go back to school. Again, on the positive side of things, once those wheels are set in motion, I'll be poised to get pretty much any of the jobs I've applied to, so that's excellent. It's just a matter of playing the waiting game now...
Let's see, what else... Igwulf wiki's slowly being built. I've put in a couple of the language notes, but that page still has an incredibly long way to go. The biggest source of frustration there is that I think I might need to make custom fonts for some of the igwulf accent marks. If anyone knows anything about putting custom fonts on wikia, let me know. If not, I'll just improvise, I guess.
The new cleaver for the scout in TF2 is fun as all get-out.
I hope you all have a wonderful week.

However, for that issue you're having with Pencil. I know how to fix it. Edit > Preferences > Timeline Size in Pixels. Increase that. Job done.
I don't know why, but the Mac and PC versions have some really weird differences. That's one. Only being able to export in different file types is another. *shrug* Like, my timeline is currently set to 1000 frames...
(Having now decided to fiddle with it again, thinking maybe I just broke some boundry with 1000) Okay, for some reason when I set it to 200, the frame limit jumped to about 300. I set it to 300, and it jumped to about 400.
And closing and reopening the program keeps the limit where it was in preferences, but reduces the actual frames in the timeline back down to 170 as default.
Okay, Pencil. Okay. Whatever you say. :| I'm not sure if I should feel relieved about this, or terrified.
On a related note, if you would like any help setting it up, maintaining, whatever, let me know :3 I do enjoy things of that nature.
If you don't already, be sure to check back with all the places you applied for every week at the very least. Only reason why I have my job is because I sent in 2 applications and checked back 1-2 times a week XD Though I'm certain you know these things already <3 Just a helpful reminder
Very glad you're feeling better. Someone as awesome as you deserves to be nothing less than happy :)
