^{_{[link] Raising money for -new tablet-drums-drum stuff-possibly art program-my dreams-}}

Broken Stuff:
Well this is just all fine and dandy.

I don't have my own computer anymore, my family doesn't have its own computer anymore, there are not computers with drawing programs, I can't put anything of my own on those computers anyway, my Photoshops all ran out of licenses, our printer doesn't work anymore, the scanner isn't set up to any computer nor will it be, and now, my tablet broke. So you guys won't be seeing any art from my for a LONG, LOOOONG time. Oh yeah, my heating pad broke, too. That's a big part of my life (I have a disorder-type thing so I NEED it).

For now the only art I can post is art that I take pictures of with my phone. And that's it. Pretty sad, eh?

Arts noe moarz:
And my family ain't exactly what you'd call rich. Really, the opposite. And a BIG BIG part if my life is drawing on the computer, and I can't do that anymore. It makes me uterly sad. I can't even draw on website programs all because my tablet mysteriously broke, which I just found out about not even 5 minutes ago, probably from the trip back from my mom's this summer. Whenever I hover the pen over the tablet, it's on a click-lock, and I think it's because the tip was pushed too far into the pen. It's making me SO mad!!! And I've had this tablet since my birthday 3(I think) birthdays ago . Yeah, my first and only tablet. This is just downright great for me. Yah. No more arts. Which means not even any Silas!!! Too bad...

Dead & Commishes:
SO I guess you guys can just count my art officially dead. That is, until I get all the money I need. Which will never happen. So it'll be until never, sorry. I would do commissions, but a)I'm already doing commissions and NOBODY from here on dA has commissioned me, and b)I can't draw any commissions on the computer for them. But if you guys are really so nice... I could do commissions ONLY of, say, paintings, or pencils drawings (yes I DO do them. I don't only do digital art. It just takes a long longer and a lot more patience.) Even sketches I'm okay with. ANYTHING traditional. Even sculptures. Of course, I'd have to take the pics with my phone (or my camera if I ever put new batteries in it), but a)my phone's still-pic camera isn't so bad, and b)I can still mail the original piece to you.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEAAASEEE!!!!
Please guys YOU are my only hope for getting new art up!!! You won't see anything good from me until I do get the money for all these things! Such as -tablet -'nother PS -computer. That, my leetle friends, is a LOTTA money. And I'll have to pay for it all. *sigh* So I'm asking you guys to help me so I can further my future of art. I can't improve unless I can actually practice. You guys would be a great help. I need ALL the help I can get!!! So PLEASE spread the word! Tell all your friends, your dog, your grandma, your sec ed teacher (okay maybe stop there), seriously anybody! Even put me in your signature if you're signature-room-free enough. I know, I am begging. Really it's the only thing I can do. I can't get a job yet. Shoot, my big brother hasn't even gotten a job yet. My parent's aren't going to chip in, so don't mention them.

PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN!

All those arts...
So since I can't do anything about my art now, I'm going to post a whole bunch of scrappy things for you guys to yuck at. >3 'Cause I'm that ebil, mwahaha! I wasn't going to post any of these, but wth, right? :3p



PEACCCE.

<sub><sup>Okay I have never had so many problems with Photoshop until today.
I would REALLY appreciate it if you know Photoshop and read this journal and replied to your best.

The version I'm using is PS 5.0 and I'm on a Windows PC.

(Just for info.: ) When I opened Ps to work on something else today, everything was reset and I don't know why. Anyway, when I opened the drawing I was working on earlier, it wanted to save as something like "namehere_edited1" (I replaced the real name with namehere) and the "Save in Version Set with Original" was checked.

(More Just for info: )So I saved an image I sent myself from my phone. I've done this before (it's the way I did all 4 Silas refs so far with no problem for those).

So I saved it as a PNG and opened it in PS and it came up with an error in which I have no idea what means. It said: "Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file."

Then I opened it in MS Paint (worked perfectly fine) and saved it as a different file, also in PNG. I opened it in PS and it worked.

Then I wanted to resize the image size. I went to the resize image window, and it wouldn't let me change the size unlinked (uncheck "Constrain Proportions") unless I checked "Resample Image". Now I forget if that's normal because everything already reset. But I find it a little fishy.)</sup></sub>

(The REAL deal: ) Now I'm trying to make a border, the way I always make a border. I selected the whole canvas and went to Select>Modify>... Contract (nor others) wasn't highlighted! It would let me use it... Then I tried something else-- I selected a random selection box that WASN'T the whole canvas and went to Select>Modify, and I COULD choose Contract that time!

I would really like to know what happened to my PS... I know nobody has fiddled around with it. It was working just FINE 2 days ago.

So PLEASE if you have any idea how to fix this let me know. No flaming please!! :3

(BTW, I can't get help from Adobe because the only thing I found that can help me with this is a forum-based thing and I'm guessing no one would answer me anyways.)

Luv y'all!

/EDIT 9-22-09:/ Yohz, I know I can't work on Silas digitally (YET!), obviously, because of my broken tablet and computers and Photoshop and school, but I am not stopping the comic! I have 14 pages sketched. And that's a lot for now--my pages have a lot in one, plus, my sketches aren't scribbly little things. They have detail, and maybe too much detail. I hope I'm getting you all psyched for staying around for Silas! ^-^ /end edit


<sup><sub>7-09:

'Sup guys, 'sup.

I got 11 pages of Silas sketched up in my sketchbook, along with their script in my notebook.

But here's a problemo--> the cover.
It's really drawing a blank card on me. I can't think of a good cover design for Silas. I've got so many thumb sketches but none of them are sparking at me. I'll have the sketches up sometime soon and I'll have a poll so you guys can vote on the best one! I also except any ideas you guys might wanna throw at me!

And here's another problem--> background characters.
I'm in desperate need of cameos!!! In the comic there's gonna be a lot of dogs and wolves hanging out in the background and I can't just come up with a whole bunch of random designs. So I'm asking for you people to send me your charries--wolf or dog-- so I can use them in my comic!!! For a limited time I'm willing to accept cameos for free. Because I am also in dear need of money. Hence this journal: [link] .

So... send me your cover ideas and cameo designs!!! First cameo (already chosen) will show on page 5, and the big crowds of cameos will appear after page 10!!!

Luv 'yall! <3 :3
