Looking to Expand to another Art Site - Ideas?

Journals / Personal

I'm not all that tapped into the vein of what's "in the now" so to speak, and thinking of expanding to a secondary art site besides here on DA. So outside of twitter (which I do have) What's a popular art platform for animu/comic style art you think I'd function well on?

Got more art coming this week both commission and personal so look out for that!

Commissions:

Ruby Rose transformation comic status: COLORING/RENDERING

Listening to: RWBY Vol 5 Soundtrack
Reading: The Promised Neverland
Playing: Overwatch
Eating: pickles
Drinking: Mountain Dew

Don't go to Tumblr, they are using a software to detect Not Safe For Work Artworks, and its banning a lot of innocent users.

tumblr is pretty good, but really hard when youre starting out. paigeeworld specializes in mostly anime art styles, but the website is mostly aimed towards children and teens. instagram i would recommend, as it's worked well for me and pretty easy to navigate.

tumblr is a popular option. People have more artistic freedom there. Just try to avoid all the porn

Birthday Thanks and On TwitterHey guys, just wanted to say thanks for the birthday wishes, they were very kind of you all. ^^ Sorry I'm not that prolific on here atm. I do work full time, and I do have another art account that has a lot of paid work to catch up on that (for one reason or another) I'm keeping separate and anonymous from this account. I have some commissions for this account coming soon, and will make time to do some RWBY art I want to do, but for now the art for this account will be a bit less prolific for a spell.

Also wanted to announce (though I've been there for awhile) that you can follow me on twitter for updates and other silliness, Works in Progress, and (occasionally) art I may not post on DA for 1 reason or another.
You can find me on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/Phantomskyler
I WAS also looking into reviving and old Tumblr account but...Tumblr imploded on itself trying to win the war on lewd art...so, not going there. XD
Be seeing you guys soonish~
Current Commissions:

Accepting Requests (4/4) CLOSEDEdit: Alright they're all full. Will contact those who got slots when I have sketches to show.
To start, I am now fully open for commission drawings, both point and paypal.

You can find my point commissions to the left of my profile, and you can find my new commission prices (for paypal) here:

Now then, I will be taking requests, 4 specifically. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE NOTING ME:
These are first come first serve. To claim a slot, LEAVE A COMMENT BELOW IN THIS JOURNAL TO CLAIM A SLOT. PLEASE CHECK THE JOURNAL COMMENTS TO SEE IF ALL 4 SLOTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN BEFORE NOTING ME.
1-2 CHARACTER LIMIT
SAME RULES AS MY COMMISSIONS AS FAR AS CONTENT: Underwear pics, PG-13 sauciness and the like is fine, but I will NOT draw porn or overtly fetishy content.
BE PATIENT. I have commissions and some other art responsibilities to handle, and I will be handling these requests at my own pace. Paying folks always come first.
Please, PL

Moving + To-Do ListOkay, after my little art bender this month getting my account or or less some life pumped into it after my multi-year absence, it's time for me to buckle down and get ready for my big move. I'm moving back to my hometown in Oklahoma. so a lot to do. Between the move itself, getting the old house organized, getting my internet set up, plus finding a new job, I probably won't be posting any new art until the end of the month.
Now that I've gotten a good groove back to my art and more or less declared "I'm alive" to the DA community, my next step is cleaning up my very outdated DA profile. So in the coming month this is my to-do list:
New Profile image
Deleting older crappier artwork (will save old requests and popular stuff like my Smash Bros comics)
Reorganize commission prices (plus add point commission options)
Once that's all set up, I think I may take a few requests, so keep an eye out on my journals.

See you guys in a month or less! Enjoy all my new content that's 6

After 3 Years, I'm back (kind of)Jesus...I've been gone awhile.
Forgive me if this is a bit of a ramble. It's late in the morning, I can't sleep, and I have work in a few hours, but I've put off this talk long enough. But yeah, I've been gone almost 3 years now. Lot's happened. All I can really say that I just fell into a depression for a bit at my lack of artistic improvement + my failing webcomic, and eventually retreated to an alternate account where I drew...questionable...art that I didn't want on my account. I'm not linking what this NSFW account is, I want it separate from what I do here, and I will ignore any questions asking if I'm this or that artist. I just want to explain what I've done for 3 years.
When I was on this NSFW account, I found a niche that boosted my confidence. Yeah I was drawing odd fetish and pervy art, but I was getting appreciated for it and even paid for it, so I just kept focusing more and more on that account and, between that and having some really demanding real life jobs, I en

College GraduationWell...Honestly surprised I made it this far. O.o
In all seriousness, this has been on hell of a final semester. Diagnosed with testicular cancer, having to deal with that, and juggling my big thesis project (which went off without a hitch!) To call it a photo finish would be an understatement. XD
So yeah, Where do I go from here?....WORK!

....I hope...maybe...possibly....Still working on that part. >>

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!

Close To You - Lyrics - Sans VersionTHE FLOWERS OF THE NEW AND LAUGHTER OF THE PAST,
THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL LIKE YOU, BEAUTY UNSURPASSED!
GONE WITH A WHISPER, YOU FALL ASLEEP LIKE DEATH,
BREAKING THROUGH THE EARTH, YOUR SMILE SHINES AGAIN!
MY EMPTY GRATITUDE, ANOTHER EMPTY THANK YOU,
I FINALLY LEARNED REGRET, FROM WORDS I'VE ALWAYS SAID.
NEVER MEANT TO SPEAK TO HURT, YET IT HURT TO PUT IN WORDS,
GOODBYE WHEREVER YOU ARE, GOODBYE UNBROKEN HEART.
IN TRUTH I WANT TO FEEL, THE TRUTH I WANT TO SEE,
I'M TRYING TO EMBRACE YOUR DRIFTING HEART AND SMILE!
WHENEVER I BEGIN TO FEEL THE BURNING TEARS OVERFLOWING FROM MY EYES,
I KEEP ON LOOKING FORWARD AT YOU, HOPING THAT YOUR LIGHT WILL NEVER PASS ME BY!
I WONDER WHAT THE STARS THAT SPARKLE IN YOUR EYES ARE HIDING FROM MY MIND,
HIDING FROM MY OPEN HEART AND FROM YOUR OPEN HEART!
TOGETHER, YOU AND I WILL ALWAYS BE ALIVE, CONNECTED, CLOSE TO YOU I'LL STAY!
AS LONG AS I CAN HOLD YOUR HAND AGAIN AND AGAIN, FOREVER, I WILL FIND MY WAY!
YOU MAY NEVER ANSWER BACK MY CALL BUT YOU SMILE AT ME WITH

TLECs 2nd Annual Training Show RESULTS UPSo, this is a wee bit late, please ignore the huge time gap. XD
TLEC 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

]
I really want to have the logo have LK.
You can have it be simple, complex, a gif, idfc

Overall)):
-make a logo featuring LK
-size doesn't matter
-use anything: gif, png, mp4, idfc
-MAKE a journal promoting this
-Comment that you have created a logo (or are going to) and share this,
you will not be entered if you haven't shared this journal.
-Add the words "ABSCOND" somewhere
How to make it:
-gif, png, mp4, i don't care. Just as long as it's cool
-you can either use LK's colors or use a solid color (like white). Or not i really don't care
-be creative. I will be looking at how much you actually worked on this, and it's not something you threw together

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
