Returning to College

I'm so excited and I wanted to share with all of you. As of 10/5 I am returning to college. I am entering the Graphic Design program at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, through their online program. I'm going to be taking classes in drawing, painting, and digital art, learning how to use the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and more). I'm hoping when I get done to be able to do some work from home, whether it be a little extra income on the side or being able to have a career out of it. You never know, when I get done, I might be creating tubes for you!

AMI Loss

Today is a very sad day in the tagging world. The creator of AMI, Leah, has passed away. Her family has chosen not to carry on the business, and all the artists there will have to find a new licensing company to go with, or do it on their own. It's sad for her family, for her artists, and for all of us who have grown to know and love her as an Admin at the Ismael Rac Stalkers forum, and as a Customer Service person at AMI. I was on the Creative Team for AMI for several months and loved working with AMI. Sadly, that part of my blog has come to an end. May Leah's friends and family, and the artists who she helped find comfort today and in the days to come.

Another CT

As of today I am on another CT (creative team) besides Juicy Bits which I joined a few weeks ago. Today I got word that I was accepted to join the AMI CT. I will be posting more tutorials featuring their great artists and scrap kit makers work. Although, come to think of it, mostly I use Rac's work anyway, lol. You can find the AMI site HERE, and the CT site which has lots of great tutorial links HERE.

Joined Juicy Bits CT team

I am pleased to announce that I have joined the creative team of Juicy Bits by Aiya. I will be posting tuts using her PTU scrap kits, so be on the lookout for those. I will still post tuts using no scrap kits of FTU scrap kits along with her kits too, so don't worry they won't be all PTU kit tuts. You can find her blog HERE and you can find her store with tons of wonderful kits HERE The tut in my previous post is using one of her wonderful Christmas kits.

Rac SOTM and new tubes!

Wow, so far it's been an amazing month. Over at the Official Xeracx Stalkers forum, they made me the FIRST SOTM (Stalker of the Month). I've gotten lots of beautiful tags from everyone! Thank you so much to those who have gifted me with tags. Let's see, the new Halloween tubes came out today and since I'm officially without an income until I find another job, I was sure I wasn't going to get them. Well, some very sweet person (who shall remain nameless unless she tells) gifted me with the pack! Whoot! I made a couple new tags today, though they weren't Halloween themed, they are most likely going to be tuts here as soon as I write them up. Sometime, probably next month I'm told, because Rac is pretty swamped, look for the "Mindy" tube by Rac over at AMI which is the tube inspired by me! Have a spook-tac-u-lar weekend, and happy stalking!

My first award

I have always tried to do my best to stay © compliant and at times I get so disgusted with those who feel it's their right to use an artists work just because it's posted on the internet and they hide behind "fair use." Truthfully, I think it's just their way of trying to get out of paying an artist for his hard work. You wouldn't take an artists painting out of a museum and place it on your wall then claim it's "fair use" would you? No, you'd call it theft. Well there are some who do that very thing in the PSP world. Ok, enough of my little rant, even though there was a reason leading up to it. Over the years I've had to learn a few things about © and I am still learning. For instance, when my blog was being looked at by The Zone Groups to make sure I was following all the rules, I had links to fonts. I didn't realize that sites like dafont actually are sharing fonts that are PTU. hmmm! Anyway, after they reviewed my site and I removed some font links and changed my tag previews to make the © more legible after the resizing to fit my blog, I was all set to go. I knew I was doing pretty good at being © compliant, but didn't realize I was doing that well that I only had a couple minor changes to make. whooo hooo! Anyway, here is my award and it will always be at the bottom of the first page on my blog.
