I'm pretty good, you? c:

Edacity

I've got enough gold now to be an art whore XD
I am just picky when it comes to artists. Unless it's a freebie, than I don't care!
But I really do wanna start buying art of my avi's and OC's D':
I think this avi is simple and kinda mysterious~

Good, good.
Trying to patiently regain service after some trolls linked my thread all over the place announcing that I had stolen their graphics.
Everything has come to a grinding halt since then its horrible.
I hope no one does the same to you dear, your work is lovely and original.
If they do so, it will only be out of jealousy.

[Lshmah]

Amore Rosea

Oh dang x.x'
Your luck just keeps getting worse!
I hope everything gets sorted out, cause I know you make your own stuff.
For god's sake I taught you a bit about making GFX so I would know XD

Hopefully I won't have an issue with people. My shop is pretty empty right now.
If I do have any issues than I have the original Photoshop files to prove that I made my own GFX.

[Lshmah]

SCHEDULE FOR TODAY:
- Finish watching Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2
- Go take a shower
- Possibly make dinner
- Work on xx - gwiyeoun's order
- **Start working on my shop event GFX
- **Possibly start working on 'rewards' system (buy a certain amount of GFX, get one free or whatever)

**Will only be started if I have no other orders at the time.

[Edacity]

sounds like you are pretty busy today!
tell me how Cloudy 2 is ;D

yeah, i used to buy art a lot for my OCs as well.
i even had a website for them XD

[Astraealys]

Lshmah

My luck really is getting worse.
Good people are usually the ones that are the most abused unfortunately.
That's just how the world works.
I am still very grateful for everything that you've taught me.
I've gotten soooo much better since then.
Heck I even figured out how to make a sigmap on my own, however it brought me to tears! XD
I really hope you don't.
They're relentless and have been chasing me around and even found my private email address.
They're a dangerous sort.

Edacity

Pretty busy I guess, haha
I'm excited to work on my event and rewards system though~
I'm only 40 minutes in but it's soooo funny and cute XD
I love the kind of humor they use <3

Oh really? You should lemme see this website c:
I love looking at other peoples OC/avi art.

Amore Rosea

Your just so nice I guess people think that they can 'abuse' you :T
Which totally isn't fair or right.
Have you contacted any Gaia mods about these people.
Cause they are harassing you so that's a legit reason to report them.

I'm very happy that you've taken to GFX. I took a look at your sample a few days ago and you really have gotten better!
The only suggestion that I have is to possibly use a stroke around text cause it sometimes blends in with the background a bit. So the stroke will help it pop a bit c:
IDK if you still use GImp, but I found this thread awhile back that I meant to send to you~
[X]
You probably won't need it but it would be nice to have around. You can always pass the link to a friend who needs it c:
I should probably learn to make sigmaps. But I'm so lazy XD

Beautiful Demons

Accepted!
Please go ahead and start a trade c:
I should be able to get it to you tonight!

Also no worries about only being able to pay 20k. That's a perfect price <3

[Edacity]

it will be nice.
not a lot of people do that.
i remember when i used to be in the minishops a lot, they would use something like that XD

i would but i dont remember the website that i used them on.
one sec....
here we go
that took too long to find XD
show me yours <3

[Astraealys]

Lshmah

Usually that is the case.
Unfortunately it is hard to change bad people, since they're happy with being horrible to others.
Nothing I can do unfortunately.
I have reported it to a mod, but since they're in the "Popular crowd" the mod just told me to get over it. But in a more professional manner of course.

Yes I do still use gimp. :3
I've figured out how to add highlights around text.
I really am having a bit of a hard time trying not make the text blend so much and stick out.
Its a bit of a pain in the butt.
But I'm glad you think I've gotten better. <3
I currently do have myself subscribed to that thread and I love it. :3
Thank you though. <3
One issue that I'm having however is with Gifs and graphics.
When you have to add layers to the gif, for some reason it royally messes up the whispy, transparent brushes that don't have a solid form and they end up getting muddy. ;_;

When you're ready to start figuring them out I'l give you a hand. <3
They brought me to tears cause it was a stressful thing to figure out.
Once you figure it out and realize its not that complicated you feel like a real idiot. XD

In my last shop people wanted a rewards system so I figured why not do it now~
and I figured my event(Which is Valentine's day themed) would be fun too c:

Very nice OC's! c:
You want to see my OC's?
Mine are scattered around on a bunch of different sites and alot of them haven't been posted yet or they have no art references x.x'
But here are some [X] and on my DA [x]

Amore Rosea

Well if it continues to happen than let me know.
I have a few friends who know some mods, so I might be able to get you a bit more help with the situation.
Can I ask who is messing with you, or would you rather not say? ( it can be in a PM if you'd like )
Gimp isn't very good when it comes to using stroke. Or at least it tends to not look as clean IMO.
But I'm sure I just wasn't using it correctly XD
Oh really! LOL! I guess I'm a bit tarty to the party haha. I'm glad you at least know of that thread. I glanced over it before and it looks quiet helpful.
Now you know why I switched over to Photoshop. Gimp tends to royally screw gifs over. Especially with whispy brushes. like it flashes gray areas and stuff. Photoshop makes it look all clean and pretty <3
I'm sure there is a way to prevent gifs from messing up so badly in Gimp. Sadly I don't know how, otherwise I would totally tell you ><

I assume there is a particular website you use to do sigmaps. If so, than can you link me? I might mess around with it in my spare time~
I always try and figure stuff out on my own first before I ask for help c:

[Edacity]

yes yes. totally true
plus gets more people to be happy ;D

thank you!
ooo i love them!
i also like the website you are using.
i might transfer some over to charahub.
dw, i made OCs on whim so thats why i ahve a billion lol.

[Astraealys]

Lshmah

Oh I'm sure it will continue to happen unfortunately.
They won't even take the link out of their thread and I'm sure they're going to bring it up some more.
If they do it once they'll do it again.
Some people are so uncouth.

I noticed that Gimp tends to butcher gifs but I don't wanna pay monthly for photoshop unless I can find one worth pirating.
I'm a cheap b*****d and if it involves having to pay for it online its not going to happen. XD
I hope that Gimp updates again soon and makes itself a little more gif friendly. XD

I actually use this website here to host my PHP files. :3
Its quite easy to use. <3
You know I'm here to help if you need it. biggrin

[Lshmah]

Edacity

True that! XD

Thank you <3
I've got TONS more I need to add to CharaHub.
It's a good site. It gives you basic questions to fill out for each character.
Plus you can go in and set relations for characters. Which is super nice c:

I tend to make OC's for movies/tv shows I watch and enjoy.
So I make mine on a whim too XD
It's just so fun to make OC's though!

Amore Rosea

That's really dumb.
They are just jelly of your skills and you should pay no mind to them.
Bullies thrive off drama. It's best not to give into it.

If you know how to work torrents than you can find a ton of cracked versions of Photoshop.
If you ever get it weather it's cracked or a legit copy, I can totally help you! c:
I know alot more about Photoshop than Gimp.
Plus in PS you can make gifs from videos. Which I like to do~

I might look into that site a bit more, maybe even sign up if I like it
<3




@ANYONE
I'm off to take a shower now~
Be back in a little bit <3
