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

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Callibrate your Wacom tutorialHad you finally made the transition from intuos 3 to intuos 4?, or Are you rich to change into an intuos 5? Had you made the transition from a first generation cintiq to the new ones?. More levels of pressure will mean more quality to the paintings, am i right?.
Did you thought that by default the pen will it be like using butter on bread?, you try it for the first time and you love all of it, you said i have sooooooo much control on my strokes im having a blast. Then only to realize you only have total control of the brush but when you are moving it really slow?. But when you do quick strokes the pressure drops a lot of paint making you redraw tons of stuff?
Did you ever thought that painter its hard to handle with new tablet? Too much pressure? If it has more pressure why i cant control more easier the beggining of the stroke which is more crucial?.
Have you ever open the customize option in wacom settings, only to feel dumb and no

Should I do this? (space-art related)

Journal Entry: Sun Aug 31, 2008, 6:25 AM

Mood: Stuck
Listening to: The faint sounds of Suburban Midnight life
Reading: My iTunes list of songs
Watching: Late night TV (surprisingly, no sex)
Playing: Smash Bros Brawl
Eating: My stored supply of junk food
Drinking: Hot chocolate (for these cold nights)

Check all yer other messages first...that way I can have your undivided attention lol

Hi, just a quick journal I'll keep for a while, asking about selling the rights to one of my works.

A short while ago, I was offered by someone to buy a "license" to use this on their game-site. I first offered that I would make an original peice just for that, however they wanted this one in particular, so I let them buy it and scored myself 50 bucks

However, they only bought it so they can use it legally. Now I'm being offered that same amount of money AGAIN for them to buy the exclusive rights to it...I am still able to keep it in my DA gallery, and sell prints too - But it ends there, that means that if I sell the exclusive rights to them, I CAN'T let anyone else buy or use this artwork at all...no matter how much I'm offered in cash

Part of me says "Do it, it's an easy way to get cash off something you did for fun ages ago, and besides, you can always make more thats similar if anyone wants one"... But part of me says "What if someone offers me a lot of money for that particular image and not a "remake", and I can't legally sell it to them?"...What do YOU think? I'm leaning towards yes at the moment, but I'll ask just in case there's a good reason not to that I may have looked past (it's nearly midnight and I can't think straight

)

Clubs/Groups:

WOW that was a lot, if you made it this far, then you deserve a Coke.
Yeah...I need to change this footer lol, hope Pepsi is OK?

$250 sounds reasonable if you ask me.

I'm sure he can put up at least that much.

~Duef Aug 31, 2008

$50????? way too little maybe $500

*PorcelainPoppies Aug 31, 2008

I've to agree with other people. If you *are* going to sell it, go for a lot more than 50. Remember, they're going to have the rights so that means any money they make off of it, belongs to them. Buying rights to artwork tends to be extremely expensive. Think of it this way:

A print of the Mona Lisa will usually run about 30-40 bucks...maybe even more depending on the quality. But the actual price of the painting is in the millions.

Think of your artwork that way. You can sell prints for 50 dollars, but to sell the rights would be like selling an original painting. It would cost a LOT more.

`priteeboy Aug 31, 2008 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Good example, I didn't think of it like that before, But now I'm starting to think that maybe rather than selling the actual RIGHTS to it, that I could rather just let them buy the permission to be the only people to buy it...They still will only be allowed to use it for their game and site only, and if they intend on making any money out of it, then I am going to ask for a percentage of the profits too

~LinksLove Aug 31, 2008

Unless they want to offer you a contract and work some kind of long term deal with you (like if they wanted you to regularly make art for them to use), I wouldn't take their offer. Its YOUR art. YOU alone should have exclusive rights to your art. Besides, its possible someone else might want something similar. Unless they're willing to give you some financial security with a long term contract, you really have no reason to give them full rights to your piece.
My opinion. Its your decision in the end. Just give it some thought. ^^

`priteeboy Aug 31, 2008 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I don't think they are offering me a job just yet, which I suppose is good because he is far off in Germany and the constant exchanging of currency, as well as computers and programs being different there means that it probably be a hassle of a job that I couldn't keep up (I'd rather work locally in Australia for a first time)

As much as I like the idea of being "MY" art, I guess the professionals who work for games and movies sell the rights a lot for their work to the movie studio's, and they don't seem bothered. I guess it's like a traditional artist selling their paintings to someone who wants it, it just means that they can't sell it again. But maybe I should say that although he has the rights to be the ONLY person to buy, and use it...he still dosn't have the rights to use it for other purposes than the game and site (which means no advertising or printed media is allowed)

~LinksLove Sep 2, 2008

Hm, I suppose. I'd always thought of the people who make art for games and such as being more like commissioners; they are paid to make art specifically for the game, rather than someone browsing a person's gallery and buying up art to use for their game.

`priteeboy Sep 2, 2008 Hobbyist Digital Artist

That's usually how it works, which is why this is new to me, making art specifically for a game is easier to part with than something from the heart you originally did just for "fun" still, I'll make sure I get a good deal

~LinksLove Sep 3, 2008

Well, whatever you decide to do, lets hope it works out for you.

~mortal-reaper11 Aug 31, 2008

I suggest you don't do it, if they buy it and you make something similar in idea or design to it there's every possibility you could be sued

$50 just isn't worth the chance...
