So DA has now offered us the opportunity to change our usernames. It makes sense for people who joined at 13 and chose a stupid name and want to change or just people who decided to take their art to the next level and need a more professional name. I like that they have offered this but what I don't like is that once again they haven't done it for the artists they did it for themselves to make more money again. You can only change your name if you are a premium member so if people are desperate enough to change they will have to pay for premium and then pay to change the name! You would think they would offer this as a free service but say make a rule that you must be a deviant for at least 2 years or something else. Bloody penny pinchers
I think things are starting to get back on track again with everything that's been going on. It wasn't just things with my mum, it was first no work and then this job was keeping me busy and really tired all he time as it was a 7am start and then a 7pm finish with a few hours break in between so long days. And there were other things not making me happy lately but I'm starting to feel a bit better and I have to try to make sure the horrible winter weather that's coming won't get me down. I hate winter
So a while ago I started a game that was getting really ridiculous as no one could guess the number. Well it's back I'll try make it easier to win the 3 month sub for you guys
And also I've got my FB page up and running again. Cleaned and started fresh
Do you work at the zoo and/or with animals?No, I don't work at the zoo or with animals. I just happen to live very close to the zoo so go there a fair bit.
I work in a call centre, very boring T_T Although currently now I am at the head office for the company I work for so all is good right now
How did you get to pet all those animals?When I go on holidays, some zoos offer programs where you can do these things but it costs money. With the big cats, a few hundred dollars. The photos with the koala, snake and baby gator for example, were $15 or so at Australia Zoo, they just take your photo
Can I use your artwork in one of my creations?Please ask first! Don't assume I will just say yes. I am less inclined to do so or will get annoyed if you just say you are taking my work for your purposes.
I don't bite, depending what it is, I will more than likely allow it and maybe even flattered that you would like to use my work for a ref
If you agree to me using your work, what do you ask for in return?All I ask for is some credit and recognition, so link back where you got it from and of course a link to your finished product as I would love to see your work
If I have created a drawing/painting etc referenced off of your work, can I sell it?This is a good question I got asked. I figure if it is something like pencil work, watercolour, oil painting, charcoal etc, then it is your work. I wouldn't have a problem with you selling it as a print or the original as you put the effort into it, I just gave some help

If it's a banner or poster where you have just put my work onto it, then no, I wouldn't like that very much.
