I was defrauded
General | Posted 5 months agoIt has been brought to my attention that the artist behind this piece [https://www.furaffinity.net/view/60054529/] (and what would've been an upcoming one) defrauded me by using ai to generate the pieces. At a total cost of $140 USD.
I will be leaving the piece in my gallery, but with a disclaimer that it was ai generated by the artist.
It was at all my intention to purchase ai trash, but such is the landscape of the internet these days.
I was too generous with my scrutiny because English was not their first language and I really thought the errors they made were simply just misunderstandings from the original reference images.
Avoid this artist and block them if they contact you.

Be careful out there.

Unfortunate News
General | Posted 2 years agoHey everyone, I hate to bring this up but unfortunately my wonderful dog, Mackey, is unfortunately reaching the end of his time among the mortal realm.
He's been with me (and my family) since 2011 when he was adopted from the Humane Society at ~2 years old.
He's suffering from some brain problems, likely dementia, and it's been decided by our vet that he'd be more comfortable being put to sleep rather than to continue being unhappy and stressed.
There's no date as of yet, though it will probably be this year, but as to be expected this is a very troubling time for me emotionally. It might be a while until I'm recovered.
