Here's a link to her Gofundme. It explains in more detail, but she needs help getting the money up fast to get her dog certified so she can take him home!

So I'm going to start spreading myself out and attempting to get back into the community. I'm not getting enough hours at work and I need to start earning an income. I'm hoping my art can get me somewhere with that! Hopefully before rent is due on the 5th...

Anyway! I'll be setting up a patreon for anyone who wants to help support me and my art, as well as a few other furry galleries to help spread my name. If you guys want commissions, I'm actively working on art and it's a good time to hop in and snag one!

---

EDIT:

No patreon. I looked into it more and I think that might be the wrong thing for me currently.

I'm opening up commissions again guys. I'm going to be setting a goal of making a certain amount each week. I'll update this when I've worked out some more information.

---

UPDATE!

I made a commission sheet! Go check it out.

YEP IT'S TRUE!

Just wanna apologize to everyone for disappearing. This past year has been... really rough.

I appreciate everyone who has stuck around. I hope you guys can grant me some more patience as I get back into the flow of things!

On top of everything else.

On top of not being able to speak to someone I love.

On top of working my butt off to pay bills.

My grandpa passed away. I've never lost anyone before.

I feel so lost and so sad.

I'm beginning to have my doubts about friendships.

I dunno. I'm feeling kinda lonely and there's someone who I really miss. I wish she'd talk to me again. It feels like I'm a little lost right now.

If you see this, just know I miss you a lot. I keep thinking of you when I'm feeling like I don't have anyone to care about me. I'm sorry about what was said and what happened, I know you need space, but I just really miss you.

I hope you'll talk to us again soon.

I'm going to make sure I go ahead and let everyone know this.

I am closing commissions.

Requests might be done occasionally, and I do have to wrap up some commissions before I can work on the current ones, but from now on I won't be taking commissions.

So that's said and done, today is my birthday! yaaaay! :D

I feel really really awful that the remaining requests have been on hold for so long, and I'm terribly sorry.

There's been a lot going on, but I plan on working on them as soon as I can! Just know I haven't forgotten. Just been very stressed and busy with real life issues.

Oh man guys, My week has been hectic. I hope to be able to work on requests again soon. I have another comm I need to work on, though. Sorry everyone. = m=

---

Two down! Three to go!

Will work on ASAP. Have commission and new job, so. Might be slow. ;m;

---

I've got five slots for anyone wanting some free art!

I'd appreciate some patience and consideration. If you request art I will try to accommodate you to the best of my abilities, but please be understanding and also sure of what you want before I go to finish it. I will provide a base sketch before moving forward and would like most of the communication regarding what you want before continuing from there.

Slots:
1.  darkelfaqua COMPLETE!
2.  miko-chan COMPLETE!
3.  XxNickH49xX
4.  narokh
5.  nitetigrezz


Sorry! All slots full for now.

Nevermind, guise.

I know I don't have many watchers, but I'd like to see if maybe any of you would be interested in cheap commissions.

I'm in need of $150 right now. We've paid bills and rent and that stuffs all fine, but that pretty much leaves us broke for a little while.

My BF and I had preordered a PS4 earlier this year. We're really close to fully paying it off. It releases next Friday, the 15th. I know it's not a super serious issue, but if we can't pay it off we lose our preorder and it might be a long long time before we can get our hands on a PS4. D:

So, I'm opening up some slots for FULL, entirely shaded Comm pieces. They will be $15, without a complicated background. Simple, one character pieces similar to this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11521919/ or this, but shaded: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11812180/

Any gender, any species.

If you want a more complex background, $5 extra and a little more time. If you want another character, it'll be $5 more.
I'll do my best to get them all done as quickly as I can, but patience would be super appreciated.

I'll have 10 slots for this. That's my goal, at least!

Thanks guys!
Send me a note or leave a comment if interested!

Thanks guys! It feels good to have 100 watchers. > w<

Well, recently I had some issues with a commission and ended up not getting paid for something that I thought was worth $40... So I figured I should make a TOS. This way no one else tries to get the better of me, or wastes my time.

1: When commissioning me, you must give as much detail as possible. We will need to discuss at length what exactly you want.

2: Please do pay attention to my commission sheet and the prices before requesting a commission. Be aware of what you want and the general price range that it will be. I will provide an estimate based on what you would like.

3: I will provide a detailed sketch for your approval. We will again discuss what you want because your input is necessary for satisfactory completion. Due to people abusing my time and patience, my fee is to be paid when the sketch is approved.

4: If you cannot pay after the sketch is provided and approved, options can be discussed, but I've been screwed over before, so I am wary.

5: At any time during my work on your piece, you can ask for a progress update, which will be given in the form of a heavily watermarked preview.

6: You can request changes be made any time before the piece is completed, within reason. For example, if I have already fully colored it, you cannot suddenly ask it to be colored completely differently.

7: If, for whatever reason, you gave me little detail, accidentally agreed to things you later didn't want, or just no longer like it, you will not get a refund. I am willing to discuss a lower price if there is good reason.

8: I will always attempt to keep an open line of communication with a customer while I'm working on a piece to make sure it is to their specifications. If you are not satisfied, I will not be held responsible.

9: If you're interested in an adoptable or YCH, please respond to me within 24 hours of my initial note with you. If you fail to do this, I will send you a warning note to let you know you have another 24 hours to get back to me. If within the 48 hours I do not hear from you at all, I will put the piece back up for sell. No exceptions.

10: I will hold things for up to a week. At the end of that week if you haven't noted me, I will resell the piece. If we agree on payment and I do not receive it after a few days, I will resell the piece.

The same friend, , who rescued the babbu snake is going through some more troubles!
Go read her journal for more information!

http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4626936/

She could use some help, and she's trying to sell some art and neato ponies she made. If you can, at least go check her out!

My friend, , recently rescued a poor little babbu snake from this kid who was hurting it! There was another snake, but it didn't make it. I am beyond furious that the kid did this! >:I

Anyway, she could use some help buying supplies for him! Please go check it out!

I got a lot of positive comments and some watches.

Tons of people favorited my art! ;u;

Someone's even going to help me advertise commissions in exchange for art! Wow!


Thanks everyone. It means SO much!

The pet babies. My friend, Nubs, posted this journal on her FA. Please look into this, and take action. I know how Nubs cares for her pets, and I also know they do not hurt her. She handles her animals with care and responsibility. If everyone did the same, we wouldn't have this to worry about. :T

Also, please spread this so everyone can see it! If you have an exotic pet, you understand why this is troubling. :c
____________________________

Copied from beastofoblivion over on dA. I originally viewed this on tumblr and felt it important enough to share here, since I too own several exotics that would more than likely fall under this bill. Harmless things like fish and reptiles. I can count the amount of times i have gotten harmed by these critters on one hand, all of which were my own fault in the first place. These are not dangerous or invasive animals if brought under the proper care. They may as well ban cats and dogs too, since they are far more dangerous and invasive than many of these exotic ever could be. Maybe they'll realize just how silly this is.

Please spread this like wildfire, every bit helps.
____________________________

Copied from Tikall's journal, I've been passing this around on tumblr. As many of you know, I am a member of the herp community and own several snakes. Believe me when I say these bans are serious. The HSUS is nothing more than a watered down version of PETA - in the end they don't want you to be able to keep any animal, exotic or domestic. Please read the text below, read the links, read up on the situation and then (hopefully) kick off a letter to your congressmen. Every little bit counts.


_____________________________________________

This is a big deal, guys. This bill can ban everything from betta fish to chinchillas. All of my pets would be on this list, and they're harmless!

CLICK HERE to email your congressmen: http://herpalliance.rallycongress.c.....revention-act/

The text below is pasted to give you a better idea of the nature of this bill:

Send a letter to your congressmen with this form to stand against HR996!

If you are an animal lover or keeper, you NEED to do this. Don't even think twice. Sign it. This is not a petition. Your signature gets a letter sent to your state's congressmen, in email or if you so choose, as a physical letter as well, so do not pass over it because you think petitions are worthless. These are your babies this bill is targeting. Your birds, your fish, your reptiles, your amphibians, even your precious fuzzy sugar gliders and chinchillas.

HR996 is the re-written form of HR669, but rewritten means nothing but bringing it back to threat status. It is still as harmful as ever, aiming to take exotics away from the people who love them, certain to put many out of work, demolish millions of dollars of revenue, criminalize exotic pet owners for doing something simple like taking their pets with them, and risk the lives of every animal that does not make the white list. All species are treated as guilty until proven innocent, so you can guarantee not many will make the white list, and even fewer will be permanently banished to the black list for a reasonable purpose.

For the full proposed bill: [link]

Think this could actually do some good against invasive species? Think again. If this bill was actually to deal with invasive species by adding them to a black list criminalizing their importation and interstate transport, it would be redundant. We already have the Lacey Act for that, and it operates in a more sensible manner: innocent until proven guilty. HR996 is a bill targeted specifically at taking exotic pets away from the people who love them.

Note that there is absolutely no mention of what is to happen to any animals that don't make it on to the white list already in-country, nor mention for the keepers that already maintain such species. You can expect that the animals will NOT be protected, and that the very moment the opportunity would arise, they would be put to death.

If you are a reptile lover, it is ESPECIALLY up to you to step up to the plate. If you remember the HR669 fiasco, you will also remember that the death of the bill only gave rise to the years-fought and only wounded, not defeated, Python Ban. We are the BIGGEST targets. Our beloved pets are among the most misunderstood, and unlike insect or rodent-like pets they are assumed to be a murder happy public menace by the ignorant masses. We already lost our burms, condas, and rock pythons in the wake of HR669's original form. LET'S NOT LOSE ONE MORE SPECIES.

As with the Python Ban and HR669, you can expect HSUS to be lobbying with all their might for this to pass. They have already proven they are not against tossing money and penning fiction disguised as scientific study to try and get their way. Not aware of what a sack of crap HSUS is? Educate yourself here: [link]

Do not assume that the sheer stupidity of this bill and its intentions means it will fail even if you don't lift a finger. We already have seen that presented the right way, bans CAN happen. Learn from the Python Ban. Take action.

Even if you don't keep exotics, you should still be concerned about and stand against the rights of others being stripped in ignorance and the lives of animals being endangered for nothing but baseless fear.

Go see! :3
