Second time writing this on my phone because I forgot to post this last night from my PC, and the DA app is horrible to the point I can’t see what I’m typing. Ahem. Anyway...
I’ve started streaming! I’m going to try streaming art tonight! I’m over at twitch.tv/sandyfortune right now, aiming for Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 to 11pm (EST/EDT). I’ve been playing Portal 2 to get the bugs worked out, but now I’m ready to start poking at art again. (Which should be “fun” since I haven’t done any drawing in a while.)
I decided against Picarto for now. I’m more familiar with Twitch as a whole, and would like to get established there since there’s a lot of options. I’d like to primarily do art, with some story-driven games sometimes. I don’t know if I want to split that between two sites right now. I guess I’ll see how Twitch Creative section works out. Maybe I’ll fall back to Picarto if I end up knowing more people there, but... Twitch is Twitch.
Anyway, I’ll probably be trying to draw stream splash screens and such this time. Also remembering how to use Photoshop. And a tablet. So... We’ll see how it goes.

Art Streams Again
So, I've been doing it. I've been streaming over at http://twitch.tv/sandyfortune. If you want to catch the regular reminders, make sure you follow my status updates here, because I'll post a 1 hour warming for a drawing stream. Or you can follow http://twitter.com/mlpsandy for more frequent reminders.
I've been streaming fairly regularly so far. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8pm to 11pm (EST/EDT). So far, I've been gaming on Tuesday and drawing on Thursday. But I'm gonna switch it up. My streaming goal was not to play games (as fun as that is), it's to draw. Streaming art will keep me in the habit of drawing regularly, give me communication pract

Hi. Hello? Is this thing on? *chews on microphone and makes feedback*
So, uh... As you no doubt have noticed, nothing came from the Picarto vs Twitch thing. That was almost a whole year ago. Time flies when you're having fun unemployed, running out of savings, and don't know what to do with yourself. Long story short, I got another programming job, moved to the city, and now...
I have fiber Internet. The good stuff. 1000/1000. I have absolutely no excuse for not streaming. I still don't have a Cintiq like I've wanted, but my Surface is already showing its age. It can't run Photoshop CC and stream, so I'm going to have to work on my Intuos o
Picarto or Twitch?
So let's say I'm serious about streaming, but the only thing left to decide is what platform to stream on... For the 2 or 3 people who might want to watch, would you want me to use Picarto or Twitch?
I've been trying to read up all I can on both platforms, so maybe I'm missing some huge feature that'll make me pick one or the others, but for now, they both seem so close that I might have to go on what people want to see. As far as I can tell, the viewership is about the same in both places. At least when I looked, which was during the time of day I'd be streaming. So the only things I need to consider are the kinds of viewers, and the platfo
January!
Hello! It's a new year! Yay! I guess. ;P
What's happened since my last post in June? A lot. Chief among them is: I quit my programming job. For several reasons. Suffice it to say I learned that it was not a nice place. I can put up with a lot. "The world's not fair, you should get used to it." Yeah. Trust me. It was not a healthy workplace...
So what does that mean? I've got enough money saved up for a couple more months of unemployment, so I'm trying a few things. First, I'm learning new coding concepts. My goal is to learn things that are actually useful in the world, unlike my previous job. (Maybe make a game?) Second, I've been writing.
