Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Nintendo STEALS Money!Since this has been going around lately, I should probably give my two cents. Basically what it amounts to is that Nintendo has filed Content ID info of their games with YouTube. What this means is that if you upload gameplay video of a Nintendo game, YouTube will automatically monetize that video, put ads on it, a link to where to buy the game, and take the money generated from that video and give it directly to Nintendo. People who do "let's play" videos are, naturally, pissed off because they want to be earning money off their videos, so they're calling Nintendo "thieves" for doing this.
I can see both sides to the story. I can see Nintendo as a corporation wanting to exercise control over their properties. On the other hand, "let's play" videos can often help new gamers find games they otherwise wouldn't have tried.
But here's the thing: Nintendo isn't the first company do this. Both Microsoft and Ubisoft do it already. YouTube has also had a long history of having music videos and

Ask Me A Question!; Teach Tolerance; OMG DD!

Journal Entry: Tue Jul 8, 2008, 11:07 PM

Ask Me ANY Question

I saw a lot of deviants doing this a while back, but I wanted to open my journal up to anyone who would like to ask me any personal questions about my life, beliefs, or art.

So... how about it... any questions/want to get to know me?

Celebrate Daily Deviation!

I'm so excited! I've suggested my tenth Daily Deviation to be featured!

ghosts2 by ~bobinthefog

I am so absolutely thrilled! I can't tell you! I don't know what it is, but I just get so excited when my (or people I know on dA) get their suggestions featured! I think I get more happiness than when I got a Daily Deviation!

Here are some other (very beautiful) suggestions that were also featured.

:thumb78362666:

I'm so exhausted, I just want some hot sexy WoW

Guys... I've been fantasizing about WoW for two weeks.

I haven't been able to get on. I've been totally dedicated to school work, plus I've been stuck with no car and sort of at the mercy to all of my friends. You know, I'm just exhausted. The final was today and I was working alllll day. Ohmigosh.

So, I have tomorrow off, then I'm going back full time for the second summer. No summer off.

I'll be working on `Staged's journal

and playing WoW tomorrow. I hope all the school work does not hinder my activity on dA!

Gosh, I am beat though! Where are all my hot men slaves?

Teach Tolerance

Just wanted to do some TOLERANCE quotes. Especially with today's discussion on gay marriage or even religion. I think tolerance and compassion are two of the most important traits to teach one another.

"It is the duty of every cultured man or woman to read sympathetically the scriptures of the world. If we are to respect others' religions as we would have them respect our own, a friendly study of the world's religions is a sacred duty." - Mohandas K. Gandhi

"Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so too." - Voltaire

“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” - Dalai Lama

“Compassion is not religious business, it is human business, it is not luxury, it is essential for our own peace and mental stability, it is essential for human survival.” - Dalai Lama

I love you all! Practice compassion wherever you are whether irl or dA!

Be good!

Love and be free!

_{My, my, what's this sexy thumb script you're sportin'? Well, it's the new script that the lovely `thespook has made for all to use! Check it out!}

Final Words
As for you, my chocolate chews, I hope you all have a beautiful day. Be kind, pass love around! Thank you for having the courtesy enough to read my journal. As you know, each journal takes a while to write. If you would like me to feature you, a friend, or a project please note me.

Thank you everyone who has been so lovely. And remember, you can just type "LOVELOVELOVE" in my comments and it would make my day.

About BewareCalamity

Aloha! My name is Linda Belle, but you can call me Linda Bizzle, LB, or sexy thang. I've been stirring up all kinds of gossip on dA since 2006 (most of it false, but don't tell anyone!) You may have seen me lurking around spanking people, but in real life I'm very nice. In fact, I would really like to be your friend. You may have noticed this giant blue cyclops that stalks me. His name is Cyanide. He doesn't really do anything except drool and stare, so don't mind him. (Although, he may fart on your profile! Please don't take this personally! He only does it to deviants he loves!) As you can certainly tell, I'm a little odd. I'm sure if you're a nice enough person (like so many deviants I know) you can look past my oddball-ness and love me! I'll love you right back!

I have a question about journal css. Where did you learn the basics and stuff?

Hate to be self advertising, but if you're teaching tolerance, here's a stamp I made.
