Absence
I took a break you might say, whether unintentionally or not.
Anyway, because of the issue stated above, I have a fair few messages to reply to. I promised earlier that at least would return all Llamas. It wasn't that bad though (had to take a peek). Have the Llamas lost their momentum? I guess with that "new" donation widget people realized that they really wanted something concrete (i.e premium memberships) instead of virtual sunglasses for an animal rarely seen.

And yes, my web page is finally coming together but oh sweet Mary, Joseph and everyone holy that has been a struggle. Not knowing a tiny bit about code (except hyperlinking and creating bald text) I have cried, fist-fought my drywall and yelled at the sql-server in San Francisco.
Its probably the hardest thing I ever done, but boy, have I learned a lot. Continuing that learning curve as well, because I´m constantly finding new tiny bugs or trying to fix another sprite. So this is what a life of a web-designer is like? Pretty neat. Although I did not get paid. Lousy socialist Sweden and unions and what not.

So, check the site out!
Kommer för övrigt ha en svensk sida också, ejkej.se. En spegelbild av översatt text. Eller ja, tvärtom blir det ju.

So it seems. But I´ll be back, have literally a hundred projects to finish. Havent gotten there though. Thats what fall is for.
Anyway, I have been on the countryside mostly, and discovered -once again- just how extraordinary beautiful Sweden is.
Have done some work, which I believe I told you last time, one project which be released soon. Don´t think it´s confidential but out of respect I wont publish anything until the client gives green light. But it´s exciting, to say the least
Im off again, hope you are to. Enjoy the summer (those of you who has seasons)!

Just a really quick one since my conscience is eating me from the inside and time is eroding the other one. Thank you all for your comments, favs watches and Llamas. I have been quite busy the last few days, and will continue with being that for the oncoming weeks. Artwise, things are going really well though, so my abstence is not for the worse. Working on a few custom pieces as well as starting up my webpage.
And a lot of this is of course thanks to the support I´ve gotten through here, so again, I bow my head in gratitude (imagine Obama meeting the Japanese emperor, something along those lines
And yeah, I promise to reply to all Llamas! Just not when.
Cheeeeersss

Thoughts instead of cleaning

I had actually planned to clean up my fav gallery this weekend, which by all standards are heroine chic
As in mess, not the quality of the individual pieces of course. Being ironic in text rarely works, which I painfully have to tell myself over and over again. Let me take some personal examples:- I originally named a deviation "teen drinking is very bad" (funny stuff in my mind). Not a single comment several days later, I started to realize that not everyone had heard 50 cent song "Tipsy" which starts with Eminem shouting those lyrics. Instead it sounded like I made some weird statement yet submitting a piece to the contrary..
- One of my fellow classmates wrote me a note on facebook wondering how everything went with that whole hospital thing, to which i replied, imo way too late. But i wrote something like "I care that you care, even though it may seem like that's the last thing being done." Confusing? You bet! I was apologizing my lack of reply, but sounded like a narcissistic-selfpity-something..
Don´t really know where I'm going with this but your thoughts would be interesting. More writing mishaps perhaps?
I do however know that I want to thank all of the supporters and appreciating comments/favs I get. Your input really has made me light-years better, and its really first now that I'm starting to grasp what I'm doing. Before october, my photoshop experience included cropping and auto-levels. That was it.
I also want to do a feature but need help. Who do you choose? Theme? Friends or foes? Supermegaawesome deviants? I always get the feeling that Im letting people down creating a feature and not including them.
So i hereby give you my feature: deviantart.com
Enjoy!
I will do a real one someday...
Ohh, learning html as well. Sweet.

I have a serious concentration issue. I'm like a child changing what he wants for Christmas depending on what commercial is on. Frustrating. Just this week Ive started to make another tattoo manip, a WWII piece, a wooden doll and a fairly funny picture with my friend signing a paper together with Tymochenko (look her up, shes kinda hot BTW). And yeah, a super cool wallpaper as well, that i actually finished.
So I´m bubbling one might say, or marking an imaginary territory with random squirts, which sounded far better in Swedish.
and yeah, this journal is also to put my more depressing ones out of sight.
Its good to be back. Back to the future. Brokeback to the future. Roadhouse! (I'm also watching family guy every now and then)
Ps. how important is it to use a capital I? far worse when mixing i guess... I can always blame my English teacher, A Bald. true story. She smelled like old coffee, which made you not wanting her chanting the syllables at close range.
