Haha, oh wow.

Been a while. Had like 70 messages and like 150 deviations. Leafed through the deviations quickly, didn't comment on any tho. Sorry.

Since last journal?

Had a birthday (april). Went to Fanime and was part of the Best Performance group in the Masquerade (entered two AMVs as well, but neither made finals) (may). Finished second year of college with my best grades yet (no C's. Woot!) (june). Went to Europe and came back (july). Started working on earning my private pilots license (july). Moved into a new apartment (july).

Hey, almost there, lol. I guess I'll do something for someone if they screencap or whatever. Cause that's what everyone else does.
If not exactly 1,000 then closest one gets it.

So, yeah. Course the last 40 views could take weeks....

Happy New Year friends (and other random people who visit my profile).
Have a good one...

Hey. Wanna get published? A good friend of mine, ~dragynstorm, is working on her senior project which is to make an anthology. And no one wants to read an anthology that only has one or two contributers. So, she needs people to help contribute stuffs.
So yeah, the whole 2.718 people that read this, go check out [link] for more information. Not only will you be helping her, you'll be helping yourself. That's what they call "two birds with one stone."

Okay, so I realize my last D.A. project was kinuva a flop, but I've got another idea that I hope people will like. I haven't really done anything yet, 'cept some brainstorming, so this is more of an interest gauge to see what my friends think of this idea.

Basically, the idea is a multi-artist calendar. Pretty much just try to get a bunch of people to submit art for each month, then have the community at large vote for the ones they like the best.

Some general rules I was considering:
-Original art only, no licensed characters and such
-I'd probably suggest that winners of one month not submit for other months, just to diversify the calendar. Possibly, if an artist really wanted to try for another month, they'd have to win by a landslide (like 60-70%, depending on the number of entries) to get in. Otherwise, the next highest would get it. After all, the main point is to get a diverse sampling of art...
-Probably stick with one type of art (i.e. anime, photographs, etc) just to keep things simple.
-I'd put the calendar up for sale on DA. Proceeds would first go towards any costs associated with the project (i.e. i'd try to make sure each artist gets a free copy of the calendar), any thing left over would go to a charitable cause of the community's choosing. I'm not trying to profit off this idea.

If I start up something like this, would anyone be interested in helping? I think part of the reason that ~TheOnePageManga didn't last long is because I tried to do too much myself and tired myself out. I'd probably be looking to recruit some admin-types and some people to help advertise the project (another thing that my other project didn't do too well).
I'd want to start pretty soon. There's only 2 months til New Years, which would obviously be the best time to have the calendar done by, but that might not be possible.


Anyway, let me know what you think. I dunno if someone's done something like this before, so I don't know how well it would work, but I'm willing to give it a try...
