Wow ewww, shortening my title to something ugly like "b4".

Anyway. You know how it goes, if not:

The first 10 people to reply with the above title will receive a critique from me.

Now a few teeny tiny rules:
1. Doesn't matter if you're subscribed or not - if you're not a subscriber (and therefore do not have access to the critique system) I will simply write a long-ass comment
2. Preferably photography, vexels, vectors or photomanipulations.
3. Pick a piece or two from your gallery for me to choose from - I won't critique you unless you give me at least one link!
4. Expect me to be very honest with you, after all it's a critique.
5. I will REALLY stick to 10 people this time. First come, first serve. Sorry!
6. I'm no expert
7. Give me until about Friday to get to each and every one of the ten critiques (don't wanna spam people's message centers). Thank you!
8. Those of you that received a critique the last time around - let's give other people a chance. Please don't participate
9. Include the following word in your reply: snowman!

GO GO GO GO GO

Who's there? - The Julesie

Yeah, I've been awfully quiet lately which mainly has to do with that new job. Also, I've been sick with a cold for the last couple of days, so my bed seems just a little more appealing than anything else atm. I hope everyone is doing well! Also....

A huge thank-you for all the comments, faves, new watchers and features lately, I wish I had the time and energy to thank each and every one of you individually

Please go check *helping-the-unknown - a very dedicated group trying to help promote unknown artists.

But some of them are stupid. (That being said, there's a lot of stupid unreligious people too)

So apparently, dA's latest attempt at doing something good - aka promoting equality - had to be ripped to shreds by people yelling "EWWW GAY PEOPLE ARE WRONG!! THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO GET MARRIED "

WTF, really? You do realise that the concept of marriage has existed for muuuuch longer than Christianity? Who are we to decide how people live their life and who are YOU to decide who's allowed to get married?

I haven't read all of the 2,432 comments. But I've seen a few that made me go WTF, and one made me get involved - [link]


I'll say this again, I don't mind religious people, I've been to church, I've wrote my final thesis about religion. I'm glad it's something that gives people hope, strength, etc. But personally, I don't see the point in believing in something but only believing in some of it and ignoring the rest. You say the Bible says that gay people are wrong? Well, in all honesty, the Bible says a lot. Yet you choose to ignore most of that. That's the part I cannot agree with.

I would like to start by sending a HUGE HUGE thank-you to the evil faerie, aka =evile33, who sent me a wonderful birthday card as well as 3 prints I framed them and let me tell you, despite this really horrible picture, they are amazing!


Actually, you better check here:


Thank you so so much! They totally made my day!


So.. growing pains. Yeah, I'm starting to hate growing up. This whole work thing is quite tiring, I have no clue how all you people with kids do it. Getting up at 5.45am is one thing, but I know as soon as I come home (usually around 4.45pm) I just want my peace and quiet, I wanna go online and be lazy for the rest of the day and not do anything productive. So my deepest respect to all you single mothers/fathers, you're all amazing!

Alright, I'm off to relax some more as it's the WEEKEEEEEEEND Hope everyone's doing, sorry I'm not around much atm!

Well, the title really says it all. I've started a new job on Thursday, it's a trainee kinda thingy which includes 3 months in Plymouth, England, next year. So I currently have to get up at 5.45am every morning which is HIGHLY unusual for someone who is used to staying up till 3am or longer. But I'll get used to it somehow.
Me and Mr Lappy - I still need a name for him/her/it, suggestions are welcome! - are getting along perfectly. I love it to bits It's fast and quiet and all
Oh, I have installed that free beta version of Lightroom 3, now does anyone know any good tutorials for it?
