Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Nintendo STEALS Money!Since this has been going around lately, I should probably give my two cents. Basically what it amounts to is that Nintendo has filed Content ID info of their games with YouTube. What this means is that if you upload gameplay video of a Nintendo game, YouTube will automatically monetize that video, put ads on it, a link to where to buy the game, and take the money generated from that video and give it directly to Nintendo. People who do "let's play" videos are, naturally, pissed off because they want to be earning money off their videos, so they're calling Nintendo "thieves" for doing this.
I can see both sides to the story. I can see Nintendo as a corporation wanting to exercise control over their properties. On the other hand, "let's play" videos can often help new gamers find games they otherwise wouldn't have tried.
But here's the thing: Nintendo isn't the first company do this. Both Microsoft and Ubisoft do it already. YouTube has also had a long history of having music videos and

whats the riddle road?

~RaeSeddon Dec 18, 2012

Finally sat down to read The Riddle Road yesterday in a fit of procrastination and I laughed so hard I gave myself a headache. I've always loved the dynamic between Edrear and Edaniel, and the Guildsman's Ball was a fantastic exploration of both of them--Edrear's insecurity, Endaniel's love of and loyalty to Elala and Eniri's memory...him decking Orion was *very* satisfying, more so than if it had been Edrear to throw the first punch. Also, it's cool to see Vincent dealing with *living* with Edrear and having to confront his own insecurity/jealously where Dinah is concerned. The universe you've created in Bizenghast is so complex and beautiful and rich, I'm so glad you took it upon yourself to keep it going after the manga series ended.

I'm looking forward to when new human agents are introduced, seeing Dinah and Vincent adjusting to their new roles with the added responsibility of looking after an agent will be a lot of fun.

~Pastel-Dollie Dec 10, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

_{oh wow, I just got The Riddle Road today and..
Is this how it went?:The living think that Dinah murdered Vincent, covered it up for a few months, and then, when she couldn't take the guilt (or craziness), killed herself behind the library?
Because, reading Volume 8, I always did wonder what everyone would think when they found Dinah, in public, with a huge, self-inflicted stab wound in her chest.
I've always been really into Vincent and his family, so it was kind of a punch to the gut that, NOW, Vincent's getting everything he wanted but in the worst way. Sucks to you, Male Classmate That's Into Bikes from volume 3, Vincent's got plenty to be upset about. Either way, I'm glad there was some resolution to that. Just really, really sad resolution.}

~Spiderjuice Jan 2, 2013 Hobbyist Photographer

Oh, cool. I guess that really was intentional. Because I've been sitting and thinking here... "gee, it's good that Dinah died, or else she would have gotten life in prison easy." She was the last to see the deceased. They know this because Jane can verify that they were meeting late every night-- and she knows that because the bike tracks are always visible in the morning. Jane could also probably verify that the two were having frequent arguments before the time of Vincent's death, seemingly over another boy (Edrear). Remember that Jane has believed the two were dating all along, constantly referring to Vincent as Dinah's "boyfriend." To her, it would seem as if Vincent had become too jealous and possessive and Dinah had become enraged by it. Dinah buried him right in his own backyard where anyone could find him and even got him a little angel headstone. Makes it look kind of like she killed him in a sudden fit of rage and then felt bad about it. Hers would be the only fingerprints on the evidence. I doubt that Tower Guards or ghosts leave any, and they were the only others to interact with the body. Perhaps worst of all, she made active attempts to cover up Vincent's death by telling Jane he was away with his parents. When the series looked like it was about to end abruptly, I was like, "Aw, this can't be used now." I'm so happy it ended up being used! I was eager to see that part of the plot develop!

~MoonRosePetal Dec 6, 2012

I got and read Riddle Road vol. 1 and could not put it down. Oh how I love these characters. I didn't realize how I missed their interactions. Reading about the Guild and its members was pretty interesting. Dinah and Vincent raised some really good questions (that Edrear and Edaniel refused to answer....). Orion definitely seems to be the star of his guild, but I'm interested to see if the other members will interact with Bizenghast guild more. I'm excited to see if they'll get new human agent(s) and how different they'll be from Dinah/Vincent. Only complaint I had is that cliffhanger! How could you? I can't wait to read the next one.

~freelance-kitty Dec 5, 2012 Student General Artist

I just got The Riddle Road yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. I didn't realize, even though not much time has passed since book 8 came out, how much I missed these characters until I opened up to the first page and started reading. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. The bits about all the different mausoleums and how they function were incredibly interesting, and Edaniel and Vincent's antics had me laughing out loud. The only thing I'd want more of is illustrations. It'd be super cool to see a couple sketches of Orion Bones and his crew

As always, fantastic job Miss Legrow!

~likenightrain Dec 4, 2012

Received Riddle Road vol 1 yesterday and already read it. Very much enjoyed it. I like how it addresses things that never came up in the manga (i.e. How long could even Vincent's absentee parents go without realizing their kid was missing?), and it's cool to see more stuff about other mausoleums come up. I do miss having all the artwork, but I also feel like the narration makes the character development stronger, so I feel like it's a fair trade off.

~Valen-LaRae Dec 4, 2012 Student Traditional Artist

I finally just bought the 8th volume because I finally got some money to do so! I can't wait to read it! And hopefully I'll be able to get Riddle Road too later on. xC

*RachelThePrawn Dec 3, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

The Riddle Road was so funny and wonderful! The setup at the end was intense. The introduction of the Sulfur Queen crew had me giggling all night, and I loved all the descriptions of Edaniel's antics. I laughed very loudly quite often, & kinda disrupted the whole house a few times. Your stuff's always the best.
