Plagiarism SucksSomeone plagiarized a couple of my old fan poems. So not amused. Reported them. ARGH.

New Scanner!Yay! Finally! New art incoming later in the week.
Artistic Impasse......between my inspiration and my finances. I have plenty of new drawings to post, but no scanner. I'm in the mood to make more beads, but no propylene. My shop is being used for storage, so no ceramics or silverwork. My screenshot art tends to generate trollage, and I'm not in a poetry or crochet mood. Probably not much'll happen here until I deal with one of these roadblocks.
Note to SelfTake a photo of the stepping stone!
Print Request......is a function I never use, but apparently there's a button alongside most deviations that does it. So like, what happens if you accidentally do? I was clicking to close another window and just requested a print on some random deviation. Eek.
Harry Potter Fan StudyIf you're a fan, go check this out: www.livejournal.com/~fanstudyIf enough people participate, it'll be really interesting.EDIT: Okay, apparently the DA journal doesn't like HTML. Bleh.
Glass BeadsRecently I took a one-day (well, more like 5-hour) course on making glass beads. I had a blast! I'm buying a kit, a tank, and everything, so I can make more. I think the process appeals to me because it's as detailed as working with finer metal, and less hassle than kiln firing ceramics. Good combination of ease and complexity.
Hand DrawingsWhen I was little, I loved tracing my hand and drawings crazy rings and bracelets all over it. Somehow, I never quite stopped, although the rings and bracelets turned into symbols, letters, and random aura-like color patterns. I also did a series of the traced hands of friends and family. I'll be posting them here - as many as I can find and that fit on the scanner. There are several drawings that are far too large to scan (including a 3' by 4' one), but perhaps I can get good photos of them sometime later.

Protecting yourself from Paypal chargebacksI decided I'd write something on this since it seems to be affecting a lot of my friends and artists I'm close to. I'll start with a few disclaimers.Disclaimer 1:I am not a finance expert. I have never filed a chargeback nor have I been in a chargeback dispute (fortunately). I have done some research out of both curiosity and out of desire to help out the community a bit. This is going to be quick(ish) and summarized. I'm also going to be changing some things to the way I sell as well (obviously).Disclaimer 2:This journal isn't about what to do in a chargeback dispute but rather, how to set up your sales so that you'll have the upper hand when having to deal with a dispute. I've included some useful links at the bottom for further information!Regular Payments / ABsSome believe that Paypal does not help in disputes over digital goods but a policy

TLECs 2nd Annual Training Show RESULTS UPSo, this is a wee bit late, please ignore the huge time gap. XDTLEC has decided to once again, open its gates to the public for another large training show. This time, it was to be run a little differently. Last time was stressful, and thats not the point of a training show. With that being said, they set up the new list of classes and decided on a different judging style. This time, there would be playful classes as well, to make it more family oriented. Rules- No fighting or harassment, we are an equal opportunity stable - All breeds may enter, but no unnatural powers may be used to get an advantage- Judging is simple, both effort and rng for performance (guide will be listed below)- Linearts, Photomanips, Trades, and Commissions may enter (tracing is allowed, at the very least list you have used a ref)- Old entries may be submitted, but will receive a penalty for not fitting the setting- No extra
Hi everyone!I usually hate seeing journals like this, but given that I’ve spent 13 years on this site and met thousands of people, knowing there are at least a few of you who would probably want to hear if something was going on, I figure this is the only way to tell you.For the past several years I’ve been dealing with health issues that I originally attributed to being overweight and/or having a sedentary lifestyle.A few months ago, I was dealing with a chronic sinus infection and drainage from hell. To offset my symptoms and maybe get some sleep for once, I went to bed with a breathe-right strip on my nose. I woke up with no nose strip to be found and a weird feeling in my throat, like something was there. I went to the emergency room assuming I had swallowed the strip; they looked in my throat and said they didn’t see any plastic strip, but they did see that my throat (epiglottis, vocal cords etc) was terribly swollen, and because I work at an airport, tuberculosis had to b
