Twitter & Mastodon
General | Posted 3 years agoWith how twitter is going the way of the dodo, I figured I'll drop a journal here with where you can find me on Mastodon instead.
My main Mastodon account is @SierraKomodo@tech.lgbt - https://tech.lgbt/@SierraKomodo
As with Twitter, I'll be keeping my furry stuff separate from main - That's on @SierraKomodo@meow.social - https://meow.social/@SierraKomodo

Something something birthday
General | Posted 6 years agoSo yesterday was my 28th birthday. I feel old now.

Art Raffle from Proud-Lion

Proud-Lion is doing a raffle for some artwork with one of their characters, SFW or NSFW :Dhttps://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9265649/
Portfolio website's going down
General | Posted 9 years agoSo, renewal day came up for my domain name, and at the moment it's not all that high on my priorities list. With that, my website's going to be offline until at least next month.
Just a small heads up.

Portfolio website with colour work, writing, and updates
General | Posted 9 years agoSooo yep. I've finally gotten around to actually getting this website fully setup in a way that's usable on the viewer's end. I currently have three sections setup - The 'front page' being for journals/updates/general whatever, as well as an art gallery where I'm posting up my colour work and anything else I work on art wise, and a writing section for character profiles, one-offs, writing projects, lore for my fictional worlds, etc.
Link for those interested: https://sierrabrown.me/
There's also this character profile I put up this morning of one of my characters, Ziva Mo'Taki Ta'kim. Bit of an updated backstory, includes a portrait, and basic information in a table at the top. If anyone has any suggestions for improvement on the format of that post style, I'd be glad to hear it: https://sierrabrown.me/writing/ziva-motaki-takim-9

Printer/scanner died
General | Posted 9 years agoYeeeah.. For those wondering why I stopped posting artwork (Again), that would be because my all-in-one has died in multiple ways. Printing results in these fun streaks of black, and attempting to scan anything results in whatever I scanned having this wonderful blue overtone that I can't seem to correct.
So with that, there /is/ a library in the area but I can't print on my preferred cardstock paper. I'm going to be saving up for a new black and white printer, which should be relatively cheap, and just rely on the library for scanning my work.
In the meantime, I'll be doing some experimenting with color combinations to figure out good tones for these two linearts I have, and for a third asian human character I'm planning on getting a portrait lineart for.

WIPs and Scraps
General | Posted 10 years agoSo taking a glance through my galleries, I've noticed there's pretty much two versions of just about everything I've uploaded lately, the first versions are technically more WIPs than completed pieces. I've decided that, to avoid cluttering up my galleries, once I post a shaded version of something the flatwork version is being moved to the scraps folders just to get things clean and uncluttered.
Reading Rainbow kickstarter
General | Posted 11 years agoI know it's already at 2.5x its goal, but I still wanted to share this with you guys. When I was a kid, I grew up on Reading Rainbow and Wishbone, I'm pretty sure they're a big reason why I love reading and am good at it. I'd love to see this project go as far as it can, LeVar's an awesome man for pushing this forward. The more funding they get, the more than can help children and schools with reading programs :D

DMCA Takedown Requests - How to
General | Posted 12 years agoHey there,
I've been seeing some people talking about finding other's using their artwork without permission, and not knowing how to/not being able to get it taken down. Instead of messaging each one of these people individually with the same information, I decided I'd just share my experiences with this in a post here.
First off, a DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) takedown request is a legally signed message sent to the web host or owner notifying them of content infringing your copyright, and requesting it be removed. I'd recommend contacting the website's owner first (Remember to be polite and professional - They may not realise one of their user's is violating copyrights). If the owner doesn't cooperate, then contact the web host/datacenter. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digita....._Copyright_Act
Now, before you do file a DMCA you need to ask yourself if you actually hold the copyrights to the artwork. The artist who did the work should always have copyright claims, and be able to file a DMCA takedown request. However, if you were the commissioner, or received the artwork as a gift, you may or may not hold the copyright to the image - This depends on the artist's terms of service, and any agreements made while commissioning. If in doubt, contact the author and see if they can send the takedown request.
More information on the above, including how to find the webhost, can be found here: http://sarafhawkins.com/how-to-file.....kedown-notice/
Takedown requests require the following in order to be legally binding (Taken from the above URL at sarafhawkins):
• Be signed (whether in writing of via electronic signature) by the copyright owner or agent; (An 'electronic signature' in an email would be this on a separate line at the end: /s/Your Full Name Here)
• Identify the original copyrighted work (or works if there ar multiple) you claim has been infringed;
• Identify the material that is infringing your copyrighted work;
• Include contact information so the designated agent can reach you, if necessary; (Typically your email address is fine in emails, or mailing address if sent by mail. Even if its the same as the address you sent the message from, you must include it)
• Include a statement your complaint is in “good faith;”
• Include a statement the information in the notification is accurate; and
• Include a statement that under penalty of perjury you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Here's an example of a DMCA takedown request I sent to imgur, and one sent to facebook (Removed my real name and email):

So let's break down the above. First off, whenever I send any email to anyone that's not personal, I always start with 'Hello,'. That's just a thing I do, isn't necessary at all.
The first sentence basically informs them that copyright infringing content is one their servers, and that permissions was not granted to use this content (I also add that no proper credit was provided)
Next is a series of URLs to the original content (I.e., the artwork as posted on the artist's gallery profile, and your own if you aren't the artist)
Then we have the URLs linking directly to the content hosted on their webservers, and various pages you have found this content appearing on their servers. I.e., a facebook page post.
The final sentence is your legal declaration that the content is not authorized by yourself as the copyright holder (Or by the person you represent, if legally appointed to represent them). It's pretty much legal jargon stating everything is true, and that if they you're lying and they acted on the takedown request, there may be legal action taken against you.
Finally is the signature. For emails, sign with /s/Your Name Here. If it's a written letter, just sign it normally.
Hopefully this helps! I've been using this format for DMCA takedowns for awhile not, for both artwork and writing.

Focusing on authoring
General | Posted 12 years agoHowdy howdy!
I know it's been ages since I posted anything here, but that's hopefully going to change here soon. I've decided to put my focus toward writing this year, and to focus that on a novel I've been wanting to write titled 'Galaxies End: The Zavos Incident', which I've just posted the prologue for in my gallery.
I might be a bit slow about getting things posted for the next week or so due to work, but once things calm down and I have more free time, I'm going to be working on writing, character development, plots, locations, everything I can think of for the Galaxies End universe.
For those of you wondering about my color work, I've completely dropped that for the time being. I might do one in the distant future, but no guarantees.
Here's the prologue to Galaxies End: The Zavos Incident:

Incoming art posts!
General | Posted 12 years agoI've decided I'm not going to have two separate FA accounts, and just post all of the commissions I get to this account - It's not like I post any artwork I've done myself to really need to separate anything, after all.
So prepare for several gallery updates :P

General | Posted 12 years agoNational Novel Writing Month
General | Posted 12 years agoFor those of you who don't know what this is: http://nanowrimo.org/
NaNoWriMo is an annual event that occurs every November, where participants spend the entire month writing a novel, with the goal of reaching 50,000 words by the end of the month.
I'm planning to participate this year, and I already have an idea of what I'm going to be writing.
Now, I'd like some help from you guys with this, because even if I don't reach the 50,000 word goal in time, I still want to write and complete a novel. As I go, I'll be posting my progress on various sites, for the purpose of constructive criticism.
If any of you like to read, I'd like to ask that you keep an eye out, and give me your thoughts and opinions, and maybe a bit of proof reading expertise as I work toward this ^^

A brief recent history of Sierra!
General | Posted 12 years agoWell. I figured because I haven't been doing much beyond these free raffle things, I should go ahead and try posting /something/ regarding myself and what I've been doing. This'll be fun!
So for starters, a few months back I got ahold of a good job, working for the same company my dad works for, which pays about $1100/mo after taxxes. I've also just recently moved back to Washington with a couple friends of mine, whom are now my roommates (
raphial and
limizuki).
Also! I've been playing a bit of Planetside 2 when I'm not doing work or other things (Like helping Raphial with his car). If anyone else plays that game, I'm on the Waterson server with a Terran republic character - SierraKomodo - And I'm a member of TRAF (Terran Republic Assault Force, formerly Air Force). If you don't play Planetside... You should totally give it a try: http://planetside2.com/ - It's free :D
Have some videos, too. Mostly Planetside 2 with one random Fallout 3 vid:
http://www.twitch.tv/sierraar/videos
https://www.youtube.com/user/KomodoSierra
I know there's probably more, but I can't think of much else. I'm bad at writing about myself and all so... Yep.

limizuki).Also! I've been playing a bit of Planetside 2 when I'm not doing work or other things (Like helping Raphial with his car). If anyone else plays that game, I'm on the Waterson server with a Terran republic character - SierraKomodo - And I'm a member of TRAF (Terran Republic Assault Force, formerly Air Force). If you don't play Planetside... You should totally give it a try: http://planetside2.com/ - It's free :D
Have some videos, too. Mostly Planetside 2 with one random Fallout 3 vid:

I know there's probably more, but I can't think of much else. I'm bad at writing about myself and all so... Yep.

limizuki are having some financial troubles and might not make this month's rent, they could use some help. I'm sure if you guys could send them a note offering anything they'd greatly appreciate it. Also,
limizuki is open for commissions I do believe - Feel free to send her a note if you guys want to commission any art and help out that way.Friend in need opening commissions!

Finding Friendship: Shadow of Everfree Forest
General | Posted 13 years agoSay hello to a darker themed My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fan fiction, written by myself, edited by my usual writing group and a few people from the Canternet IRC network.
This journal entry will mainly be for keeping all of the chapters I upload organized, and have a sort of 'Table of Contents' for everyone to browse through.
Remember: I am /always/ open to constructive feedback and criticism, regardless of how old the work is!
After spending her life alone in the Everfree Forest, a young mare discovers other ponies in Ponyville, as well as a plot by the changelings. But will anypony believe the words of someone from the mysterious forest?

Gallery adjustments and new FA account!
General | Posted 13 years agoSo, I've decided I'm going to split my gallery between art of my characters, and art that I've actually worked on. This account will be my 'art' account, while
sierrablakely will be the new 'character' account for my fursona and my characters that I get art for.
Just a heads up! ^^
