CHORES!!

A chance of finding a decent job around here is nil, so parents have given me an opportunity to earn money by doing household chores.. And helping with the yard. Not bad since I get paid 50.00 a week doing it ^_^. Besides I'm desperate to earn money for college books *is under the money limit could only by two or so by herself * @_@.


Art Commissions

The Cross Roads If any body is willing, I'm open for doing Art Commissions. So if your willing to pay a certain price for a particular piece, that I create for you, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm capable from drawing a vast variety of anime/manga and video game characters. *has trouble with others original chara's unless they are really really detailed*, here's anime's/games that I have seen or played to give you an idea of what I can do ^^:


Anime/Manga:Envangelion, Angel Sanctuary, Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon, Escaflowne, Ranma 1/2, Fruits Basket, The Slayers ( all series), Rurouni Kenshin, Magic Knights Rayearth, Yu Yu Hakusho, Kikaider, Chobits, Digimon, Pokemon, Angelic Layer, Gate Keepers, Hellsing, Priest, and many others......

Video Games

Final Fantasy 7-10, Chrono Cross, Resident Evil, Zelda, Legend of Dragoon, Kingdom Hearts, Jak and Daxter (others).

PLEASE NOTE: I DON'T DO MECHA! Sorry folks, but they're just too tedious, and are a major pain in the wirst to do, i did a deathscyhte before, however, he took 2 1/2hours to do tops and still turned out bad, so don't bother asking me to commission a mecha, there are plenty of other people willing to do that, but Rayearth will be a diferent story if you want..


Thanks,

Pet Peeves


Mmm. What can I say? I'm the type of net lacky who has lots of peeves about the net. Pop Ups is one, however, sometimes Anime Image Galleries bug me

Ever gone to a website before, where somebody claws down your back begging not to take images from a gallery full of official images? I have.. and lots of them to. Its annoying to me, First of all, Scanning is not back breaking, like I read on one * takes me 30 min to scan a full book tops, unless your totally Scanner clueless and don't know how to use one*, Secondly, You DIDN'T DRAW THEM, Or OWN THE SERIES, your just a pissy and moany fan, who wants to be an image hog *growls and bites*. Besides, what are you going to do if you list the artbook their from, someone buys it, than scans it themselves? What happens you get all pissy and cuss out the person, and than swallow your hissy fit when they have proof of scan. Its pointless folks. So grow up.Besides, posting images on the net in an exstensive gallery, is just like sending cash through the mail. Your bound to loose it sooner or later if your not cautious and blind by hate. Some galleries even threaten people if they don't remove an image, they won't do it. They're just arrogant jerks. So please before putting so called blood, sweat and tears into a gallery think about what your doing first, first of all if anybody should get credit, the ORIGINAL creator OF the Anime/Manga should get credit NOT you the swiper. And on top of that Images are free domain once posted any way silly heads. So think it through before you load.


Understanding

Aside from that, there are images on websites that should be left alone, such as: Logo's, Fan Art, written material etc., These types of work we know everybody works hard on, so I can see why people get annoyed when someone takes information, and original works*like a hit and run*, but when it comes to official pictures that you happen to see every where eventually, than why bother? Your wasting energy and time...So think it through before you decide to create a gallery. To me, a fan site is even more creative when no official pics are involved and only hand drawn/written materials are involved cause that does mean blood, sweat and tears, when it comes from your own creativity.

Wow been a long time


This is my first time ever using the Blog Builder on Angelfire, so hopefully it looks good?I've tried to make other blogs by hand before, but I just got lazy with them, and thought this to be easier. But I've been really busy as of late, and have been milling about like crazy trying to find a job, earn money for college books, update websites the works, which should've all been multitasked, cause doing all that at once has turned me into one tired son of a---. Erhem *cough* scratch that *grin*


MALL

Went to the mall today, and finally found volume one of X the TV Series. * bounces up and down* YEAH! Only thing was, is that I was stuck on debating whether to get that, Hellsing and or Love Hina, I wanted to see all them, but didn't have the cash.*grumbles* Oh well, will save up for both next time, and hopefully FYE will get Gate Keepers back in * whimpers* wants to see that too.


Websites

Oh yeah, if you type my name in the Angelfire search box ( Kattalina ), and get a list of sites, don't bother with them.... They're all dead say for one:
The Cross Roads, My art Site, which is hosted here and at another spot being rebuilt at the moment.I'm bad about starting a site and finishing it, I either:

1. Get Half Way through and Don't Update

2. Forget About it

3. Can't Figure out what else to do with it

Or

4. Loose Interest in the series and Deletes it.

Websites are tough and fun as hobbies, but time is of the short for them some times. I'm working on some others now, like this one for instance. I may forget about it too, but lets see eh? >blinks<
