There's a student discount on bundled Adobe programs!	4	Chatterbox	3/2/12 7:41pm JouVal
I normally don't go out of my way to promote products, but this deal is amazing! :heart: Right now there is a student discount, but it ends today. :( For $449 you can get a bundle of programs out of the Adobe CS5.5 creative suite for much less than they are priced normally or are priced at individually. Photoshop itself sells for $999 (excluding upgrades or promotions). I'm getting the we ... Read Reply				3/2/12 7:41pm JouVal

Well all that aside, I think you missed my real message. Yes that was used as an example, but the actual message behind it is to not give up on what you enjoy. :sweat: If you have actually read my article you would see that I am not demonizing anyone or implying that Asian people are rude or mean. Real or not, a lot of people get depressed over the issue for some reason and I was just trying ... Read Reply				2/7/12 2:02am JouVal

There are some sites on the web that are "anti-western" cosplay too, I stumbled across 3 or 4 of them last year while looking for cosplay pictures. I'm not sure whether or not they are all still online, but a few of them were pretty degrading. Read Reply				2/7/12 2:02am JouVal

I don't remember off the top of my head, but there were 3 or 4 anti-western cosplay sites I stumbled across about a year ago while looking for sites with cosplay pictures, and there are a lot of videos / articles I found on YouTube and various sites.

I know that not all westerners are white and it was never my intention to imply that. I have seen a lot of Native American and African American people insulted too. Heck, I have even seen a few extremists say that people of Asian decent should not cosplay if they have lived in another country for a long period of time because by default they will become "fat, ugly, and gross like westerner ...

There are some people (mostly Asian) that put down non-Asian cosplayers for various reasons, claiming that only Asians can pull off the charcters, and that 'Western' cosplayers are insulting the characters by cosplaying them... Here is my 2 cents on the issue. Read Reply				1/29/12 7:22am JouVal

There are a lot of Asian (and some non-Asian) people who make fun of non-Asian cosplayers, especially over the internet. I've seen a lot of photos taken and re-posted on the internet for the sake of insulting them, and in an attempt to discourage others from cosplaying. I posted my 2 cents on deviantART, click here to read. Read Reply				2/7/12 2:02am JouVal
Foreign Language Tips	15	General Discussion	1/23/12 9:14pm D a n c i n g D u c k y
Listen to dialogues of natural French speakers to learn not only vocabulary, but also pronunciation. For me, it was hard even learning English my first language) because there are some sounds that while normal are not possible for me to speak the same way as other English speakers. I dont have a lisp, but its almost like that part of my brain is wired differently! For example: I cannot make ... Read Reply				1/23/12 9:14pm JouVal
Worst thing that's ever happened to you when making cosplay	46	Cosplay	2/26/12 4:04am Panda Renny
Oooh that's got to suck... I've burned myself so many times with a hot glue gun I'm pretty much not phased by it anymore. :( My friends have looked at me like I'm insane before when I explained that I had to let the molten plastic that was burning the sh** out of my skin cool a certain amount before removing it to avoid damaging any of my other fingers... Don't let it cool completely though ... Read Reply				2/26/12 4:04am JouVal

I know how you feel! :gonk: It's the same for me. Even if there are girl characters I like, there has always been a male character I ended up liking more from the same anime or manga. Read Reply				1/20/12 3:14am JouVal
What music do you listen to while making your cosplay?	31	Cosplay	2/2/12 11:25am Amethyst Starburst
It depends on the character, really. I listened to some odd stuff while making Stein's outfit (Soul Eater) ... like Rob Zombie, IAMX, and Psyclon Nine, plus some really weird stuff my mother downloaded (she listens to some demented sh** sometimes!) For my fem!Sai outfit (Naruto) I listened to Naruto OPs and EDs and Asian Kung-Fu Generation. Read Reply				2/2/12 11:25am JouVal
