Salty Journal by a Salty Artist

Okay, so. With the announcement of flash player being no longer be available on our browsers, we reacted appropriately with others reminiscing the times they on newgrounds and shit, while some people like myself are upset at this because we used certain editing sites for our hobbies and such. The reason why i'm kinda upset is because recently, ipiccy hasn't been functioning properly. I'm able to access the site, but i'm not able to edit a photo as the screen is stuck with an indicator that i must run flash. The thing is, i already have. I even put up my settings that i allow flash to run on ipiccy.
The reason why i'm salty about this is because most of my art are done with ipiccy. Some of my art, like the background, effects and lighting are all done with the use editing o ipiccy. I originally used picmonkey to edit my artwork and add effects and such. But when picmonkey was updated, i am no longer able to save my edits unless i have some registered account. Since i was young and don't now how shit works, i say 'fuck that' and moved to an accessible site that is similar to ipiccy. Sure, there are some things that i still need an account to access, but at least i'm able to save my edits.
If you were to say that there are other art editing programs i can download, and you're right. I have recently downloaded medibang paint to give some of my artworks transparent backgrounds. But, here's the sad kicker about myself; i don't know how to use medibang. I only downloaded it because i wanted to have transparent backgrounds on some of my art and even recently started making sprite portraits. It was highly recommend for artists to use similar programs to like firealpaca and adobe photoshop to make their artworks, but i was very young at the time and didn't know how to use them. They were too complicated for me to get the hang on as i am a traditional artist. In short, i'm a total boomer on digital art.
There are methods on replacing flash player with similar programs, but i'm anxious on how the output is going to happen on my laptop and browser as i don't wanna risk accidentally breaking it again.
So, yeah. It's going to take a long while on trying to edit my artworks. Sad part is that i was about to edit a sketch for a commission and finish some expression portraits along side some art i plan on finishing.
Uploads are obviously on hold until i can work something out.
This is FG2000, and i'll be seeing you.
