I kind of want to do a charity auction/commission/thingamajig to raise money to donate to the Red Cross to help with the Japan earthquake relief effort. An exchange student we briefly hosted a few years ago lives in Japan and thank go she's okay. She thought she was going to die =[ Not sure what I'd sell, though. Something with markers? Haven't done that in a while.

A banner that doesn't suck.

I wholeheartedly approve of this banner and anyone who doesn't like it isn't American and/or can go to hell.

... anybody need one? I might do just one in digital color after I finish some other things. Like, next week or something. $25 I guess. I need money for a website.

... at least DeviantArt doesn't give me notifications to comments made on journals I didn't write.

Well bum no more!

I've created AtHomeCon, the first (I think) IRC furry convention! To join, log onto FurNet and join #athomecon. If you've never used IRC, use the tutorial that The Furst State's own  inurenegade created. http://thefurststate.com/forums/thread-347.html

Opening ceremonies are at 6pm EST this evening, and the convention will run though Sunday afternoon.

See you there!

I appreciate comments on my submissions more than I do faves.

Like, in real life there's no such thing as hitting the fave button. You can only comment. And I love when I get nice comments about my art. Makes me want to keep drawing even more. =]

I really wanted an art from a guy, and he said I had to do this meme to get the art. D= Hehe. Please note, it may take me some time to do these!

The first 10 people who comment on this journal will get a free sketch.

HOWEVER, in return, you must offer 10 free sketches in your own journal. If you've already done 10 Free Sketches (recently!) you still qualify -- simply link the journal entry in your comment. Here's the thing:

1. In your comment, include a link to reference picture(s) of any character you want me to draw.

2. Only ONE character per person.

Another mass thanks for the faves to everyone who's faved or followed me recently! Sorry I can't thank you all indivicually but I'm mad busy with lots of stuff. My head is spinning. @__@

*goes to work on a research paper and find sound effects for an audio project while cleaning a thrashed room she just moved all her sutf into and trying to sell the old furniture on in it while packing for a daytrip to NJ during which she won't have time to work on a comic because she also has costumes to finish*

See my post on my local fur forums about this! I'm in a contest (that isn't furry-related) and I'd appreciate your votes if you like my entry! =3

http://thefurststate.com/forums/thread-1396.html

Due to recent events that have drained my funds *coughgagaticketscough*, I will not be able to attend Anthrocon this year. Which, at this point, means no furry conventions for me this year.

I will, however, be attending three non-furry conventions this summer, so I'll still have plenty of fun. =]

I'll still hold onto my pre-reg until the last minute, though. In case I win the lottery or something.

You never know!

I'm very good at yoinking memes. This one came from  khora.

So I am ever-so-slightly more male than female. Just as well. I've never considered myself "girly," though I do enjoy wearing eye makeup and having my hair and nails one all nice-like. I guess I just appear really feminine on the outside but truthfully enjoy doing guy stuff more than doing girl stuff.

Works for me!
