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:points: .
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?)

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

What&#039;s new with Skinner?

Journal Entry: Tue Aug 28, 2007, 9:32 AM


:wave:
Hey everyone!

It's been several months since my last journal and some of you may be wondering what I've been up to.  Well between my firefighting, home life, and photography, I've been quite busy... for the most part traveling around various areas of my own province living in basecamp or on the fire line.  I just returned from a week in British Columbia (western Canada) where we lent a hand with the fire situation out there.

I've been lucky enough to have had some time to explore with my camera as well.. from the canyons north of Nipigon to the beautiful lakes of Quetico... and just recently the Rocky Mountain rivers near Nakusp, B.C.  When I'm on the road I take advantage of any internet connection I can find to upload pics to my dA gallery from my trusty memory stick :)

You are all aware that for the past 4 months I have had the commenting feature disabled for my photos.  I only did this because of time constraints and the inability to reply to the comments. (that always leaves me feeling guilty).  Well I've decided to enable the commenting feature again in hopes that I can find some time to reply as fire season winds down.  I'll also be restoring my 'featured artists' and 'Recent WOWs' section to my journal next month.

Some contest news also:  The very talented ~Inebriantia has asked me to sit on the panel of judges for his ongoing 'Earth' photography contest.  Read all about it here: 'EARTH' photography contest and check out ~Inebriantia's journal for updates and further details.

Recently `wroth and `insaneone have contacted me and asked if I could put together some stock images for the highly respected stock group #resurgere.  I'm very honored by this and will be working on that soon.

About a month ago I recieved my 5th Daily Deviation! The piece concerned was one of my conceptual portraits and not a nature shot.  This made it extra special for me :)

The other thing I must take care of here at dA is my message box which can be summed up by saying 'The cup overfloweth' :D  I was planning to get around to all who had faved my work this summer, but considering the 23,674 visits I'd have to make, let me just shout a BIG thanks to everyone for all your support! ... especially those who have just recently added me or purchased my prints :)

When I have some lounging time I plan to drink in all the wonderful art piling up in my message box as well ... currently 2,804 deviations behind ... can't wait to check that beautiful art out!

Anyway, you all take of yourselves ok?  I'll be kicking around dA more and more frequently as winter approaches and look forward to revisiting with all of you.

My Other Accounts

URBAN EXPLORATION
~CellarDweller


This new foray into a genre of photography completely different from my nature stuff has.. artistically speaking.. been an absolute breath of fresh air for me.  It's become, in fact, far more challenging and rewarding then I ever would have guessed.  I started with rural explorations such as old barns and abandoned farmhouse interiors and branched out into trespassing dangerous old industrial derelict buildings and shooting seedy alleyways at night in the worst parts of town...




ARTISTIC NUDES
~skinnernudes

Not a very active account these days, but nonetheless a learning experience and a genre of photography which interests me a great deal.  I hope to do more of it soon!




WINDOWS CUSTOMIZATION
~skinnerstyles

Also not a very active account these days, but it was my original forte and the reason for my username! I used to 'skin' WinXP for use with StyleXP .. also make icons and wallpapers for the desktop.. I still throw the odd wallpaper version of my photos in there. 'Natural Lighting 2 - wallpaper' got a DD last year and has been viewed 30000 times!




STOCK
~wb-skinnerstock

Some stuff for the community to use .. the 'Suspended Egg' has been used for 45 (at last count) deviations and got a DD a few years ago.








GROUPS I SUPPORT

ArtistsForCharityArtForDeviants

`ArtistsForCharity ..members donate a print to be sold with all proceeds going to UNICEF.

~ArtForDeviants ..members donate a print to be sold with the proceeds going toward purchasing site-subscriptions for other deviants..

~Urban-Explorers & #UrbanExploration ..devoted and completely addicted to sneaking around in abandoned buildings.
