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?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
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

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

Bought a new MacBook

by ~jasonh1234, Apr 21, 2010, 9:57:02 PM
Journals / Personal

Same processor clock speed, same amount of RAM, smaller screen (15"), slower hard drive.
Still WAY faster than my old 17" so far with the i7 chip.

Kinda sucks losing the screen real estate. (My max res is now 1680x1050 instead of 1920x1200) The colour looks a tiny bit better though.

Main reason was for the smaller size though.
I just got tired of the weight and size of the 17"

Gonna take a bit of getting used to the new design. New keyboard, new trackpad, new plugs.
Sure hope I don't regret the loss in screen size.

Got the anti-glare screen too.

Still Rocking my 2yr old MBP 15" 2.6ghz
I would like to get a Modbook in the future something I can show off to all of the iPad guppies

Good luck with the new machine and give use an update in a few days/weeks about the performance / battery life .ect

I am really curious about the new i5/i7 processors.

Take care

lucky man I'm planning on getting that specific type of Macbook Pro as well. A 1.5ghz Core 2 Dupp vs a 2.8ghz i7, hmmmm what do you think, upgrade time yet xD. But i'm still debatting if I should. Macbooks are upgraded usually 7-8 months (this time it took it 10 months but thats rare), basically it's either the Mid-Spring 2010 models, or see if i should see if they come out with late-2010 models with a little bit of improvements. What do you think?

~jasonh1234 Apr 23, 2010 Professional Digital Artist

All I know is I love the physical size decrease. The screen size isn't bothering me as much as I thought it would. Performance is noticeably snappier.

Still have to sell my "old" 17" now. Gotta figure out it's current value and get it on eBay.

i7 is well worth it over i5 from what I hear. Now is a great time to buy I think. (obviously. :-P)

~Maikeru-sama Apr 25, 2010 Hobbyist Interface Designer

You're 2008 17" could easily do over $1500 USD, but just check on ebay and see what you get. And thanks, this helps alot, now time to save the funds xP

~trs888 Apr 22, 2010

i want one. i want a 17inch macbook pro with i7. shame it costs £2100 in the uk!

but then again, i do have expensive taste!

typical.

congrats on the buy. enjoy!

*RobRayburn Apr 22, 2010

they are good machines. I got the anti-glare too, for my late 2009 MBP. Def. glad I did that. Way better and easier to see than those glossy screens.

I actually got them to give me the one I have now for free. Gotta love when Apple replaces an early 2008 MBP that craps out with a brand new late 2009 MBP with 5 X better specs. *wink*

did you get an i5 or i7?
mines still a Core DUO (in the 15", i7, 512 video - series), but i might go for another replacement. LOL *wink*

~jasonh1234 Apr 22, 2010 Professional Digital Artist

i7 2.66Ghz 15"

*RobRayburn Apr 22, 2010

damn nice!

that's what i want them to replace my current Duo with. I had a bad screen that was DAO (and needed a total clutch assembly replacement) when I got my new 2009 so i already have a great excuse for getting a replacement. and since i'm already in the 512 video series they have to replace with a 15" i7. I'm just waiting till they work out all the bugs in the i# series i've been reading about. And I'm waiting until I can convince them give me a free switch from SATA to SSD. I convinced them to up my video ram from 256 to 512 last time I'll just have to work my magic one more time.

How are you liking the i7 series?

i've read they can be buggy. be interested to hear what experience you've been having with them.

also:
did you go 4 or 8 GB?
SDD or SATA?
