Y'know the feeling of having a ton of decent ideas for various images, projects and whatnot - but being unable to actually realise them? I hate the term "artist's block" but that's the only thing I can pin to my current situation. It's rather horrible, I must say; I don't actually have the will or confidence to put pencil to paper at the moment. Or to start work on the written saga I've been mulling over for months. And I don't quite know what the cause is, but suffice to say that I'm feeling more than a bit discontented with the whole thing. What does surprise me is that I still have the motivation to continue shooting, which is never a bad thing these days.
On a lighter note, I now have laptop computing powers. After a slightly prolonged wait, I've got my hands on a Dell Studio-15 widescreen machine. Not an awesome beast of a computer, but it's a nice little gadget to have; uni's necessitated such a venture. I'm tired of the freaking architecture students setting files to render, then leaving their little "Don't Touch - Rendering" notes and buggering off for hours while others (like myself) aimlessly wait for a spare computer just so we can upload files to the network or shove something through the print system. If my laptop doesn't solve this problem, someone's going to eat their keyboard.
Thankfully I'm away from that institution for another four weeks.
Also, call me behind the times, but I've just discovered Firefox's ability to rip embedded Flash files from webpages and save them as standalone .swf's. It's rather handy for those useless little Flash games used for killing time - don't have to buffer them, either. One awesome little puzzle game called Bloxorz has stolen my attention for quite some time thanks to that. And Youtube clips are also rippable, albeit they
are Youtube quality.
Anyhoo, I should be putting some kind of new artwork up soon - what it'll be, I have no idea. But smacking myself upside the head and forcing that pencil to paper seems like a decent idea right now.
Global Warming PSA - TimeThere are few pieces that I run across on this site which really make me stand back and say "wow". However,
Global Warming PSA - Time by ~
pepey is one of those pieces, and with good reason. Not only are the visuals impeccably executed, perfected and clear, but the concept is also one to be admired. I haven't before seen an artist communicate one of the most relevant problems facing our world today so well through an artwork. At that, maybe I've been living under a rock for some time - but the fact of the matter remains, this artwork is nothing short of awesome. I highly recommend
checking out this deviant's gallery, as there are a good number of other entertaining works contained therein.

Hey I read the mX
Do you remember this quote, I think it was a few days ago, but it was about animal cruelty.. It went something like this:
"Eating animals is okay. But taking their food, nah that's just cruel."
if you could remember, that would be great

I-I'm sorry, you just lost the game again. :c
Unfortunately I haven't read the paper in weeks; I've been on uni break and so haven't had cause to read it. So no, I don't remember that particular quote - one of my favourites, however, was:
A: "Oh god, I think I said this quote that's in Overheard!"
B: "Guess what's going to be in next week's edition."
