Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000:points: .
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine  that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam  deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Nintendo STEALS Money!Since this has been going around lately, I should probably give my two cents. Basically what it amounts to is that Nintendo has filed Content ID info of their games with YouTube. What this means is that if you upload gameplay video of a Nintendo game, YouTube will automatically monetize that video, put ads on it, a link to where to buy the game, and take the money generated from that video and give it directly to Nintendo. People who do "let's play" videos are, naturally, pissed off because they want to be earning money off their videos, so they're calling Nintendo "thieves" for doing this.
I can see both sides to the story. I can see Nintendo as a corporation wanting to exercise control over their properties. On the other hand, "let's play" videos can often help new gamers find games they otherwise wouldn't have tried.
But here's the thing: Nintendo isn't the first company do this. Both Microsoft and Ubisoft do it already. YouTube has also had a long history of having music videos and

Could be better, but thank you!

There is something that strike me more powerfully with tigers than other big cats, but I'm not sure I could put it into words. It started with a mild interest in all big cats, but the more I learned about tigers, the more enamored I became. It may just come down to some unspeakable connection, as in many other matters of love.

I'm a big fan of all cats, but snow leopards are right up there. They are some of the most incredible animals, surviving in places that don't seem to be suited for life. Combine that with a haunting pale-eyed stare and you have an animal that is understandably mysterious and divine.

Aww how come?

I really know what you mean. I feel the same way about Cheetahs, despite having a love for all the big cats. There's just something about them that amazes me.

They really are amazing creatures, and we know so little about them. I was amazed when I first saw one.

Thanks for answering :)

Hello Kuba !
I don't know if you have the answer to this, but I've made a few researches and haven't found anything.. What happen if we cross breed two different families of big cats ? I've found a lot of informations about crossbreeding inside the panthera genus (ligers and everything), but can neofelis and uncia cross with panthera? For exemple, did someone ever tried to breed a snow leopard with a " normal " leopard ? I can't really find informations about that, but someone should have tried this someday, knowing the human kind, no ? o_o

Anyway, I'm just being curious, I quite love genetics ( even though cross breeding is a sad thing ) and I've been wondering that for a while (:

A good site for big cat hybrids is this., but I'm sure if you did research you must have come across it already.

I don't believe some of the smaller cats would be able to the Panthera genus, but perhaps a snow leopard could. It was in its own genus, but has since been relegated to Panthera so perhaps it could mate with its counterparts. I haven't heard of such a thing occurring though.

Thanks for the question and kudos for doing the research!

Actually I did my research in french, because it's way more easier to understand genetics this way to me xD But thank you for the site, I'll check this !

Yeah, I see ! So actually it's more a question size of than genus :3
It's weird we aren't aware of mixing snow leopards with leopards or other big cats though.. I thought, with all the weird cross breeding people can realize, they would have done that if it was possible.. :o

Well thanks for answering :3

What do you love the most about tigers?

That's an impossible question. I couldn't come up with an answer if I tried. In fact, the more I think about it, the more reasons emerge for why I love tigers, which complicates things further. It's horrible, I know, and I want to give you an answer.

I feel quite connected to the tiger for reasons I cannot explain. It just seems familiar to me, like breathing.

As funny as it sounds, that is answer enough for me.

I have another question. ;)

Where have you traveled on your quest and where do you hope to go next?

I've lived in Canada, USA, Thailand, Indonesia (Sumatra), but have visited Brunei and Australia as well.

I'm hoping to go back to Thailand sometime soon to do some work. =)
