I need themes for a 30-day design challenge I'm doing!  _{(that i definitely didn't steal from some other people doing it, oh no)}

I'm not looking for any themes in particular, anything from descriptive words to occupation/character classes will work just fine!  You may also pick a day if you want, haha.  

Please note that I may pick some themes over others if there are too many suggestions!

Here's the list so far:  

If you're wondering about Day 22 - Redesign an OC, it's where I pick my own or someone else's OC to literally redesign them in my own way.  This doesn't mean it's permanent, (unless it's mine and I like it), it just means I'm changing it's design a bit.  uvu

So if you want to offer up an OC to sacrifice on the temporary altar of redesign, or suggest one of my OCs you'd like to see redesigned, please let me know below, I'll make a little raffle out of it perhaps!  uvu

Thanks for the help!  ;v;/

Okay so I'm using unicorn-tails's journal skin as an example because i just finished it, but look at this tho

So I get the code all straight away, have all the dummy text in place, and I hit preview and this shows up??



Which is bad because this is where I get the preview of the overall skin working and being correct so I know what works and what I have to fix.  But not only that, this is where I take the screen clip to use as the image for when I upload the skin to my gallery.

So not only does the font changes I make to the code not work when I preview it, but the text is obviously shifted downward awkwardly???

And I can hear some of you like "well, nebby, did you check your code??  is everything correct??"

And YES, I CHECKED IT, AND EVERYTHING IS CORRECT AND IN PLACE, AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND.  Because in the Write a Journal window, it looks how it SHOULD look:



and when I submit the journal, it looks how it's supposed to look:




SO WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING??

I'm trying to get my journal codes worked out, they seem to be acting strangely now with some of the recent ones I've made, so if anyone is having journal skin troubles on skins that I have made, please let me know, and I'll try and work out the kinks!

On a related note, did dA update the journals in any way to make my codes change??  Because they were working just fine around a week ago, and now they're weird.  :'I


_{also hi, im happy to see you all <33}

Well, this meme thing seemed interesting enough and I thought maybe I should do this because it might inspire me to change myself, so here goes.

5 positive and negative things about myself!

- positive
- negative

I'm open-minded and accepting of everyone's beliefs and feelings, and I try my best to keep my heart and ears open for people who need someone to talk to

I procrastinate.  A LOT.  and it's gross and i'm gross and i'm sorry.

While I don't want to jinx myself by saying I "like" my art, I feel myself really improving and I am trying very hard to continue to do so.

I see other people's art and get discouraged a lot, whether it's because I feel like they have more talent, or because their style looks better or is cuter.  Sometimes it's over simple stuff, like I get intimidated by how many watchers they have;;

I try my best to fix problems before more arise, and not let myself get discouraged, no matter what the context is.  And whatever "good advice" i try to give other people is what I try to follow as well.

Related to the previous one, sometimes it doesn't work out and I sulk anyway for a few days because it bothers me that much;;;  And a lot of the little stuff bothers me.  :c

My OCs are like family to me, and they're very important to me, even if some don't get used quite as much as others.  I love them all <3

I make too many OCs, really;;;;  and I get attached to designs pretty easily;;

I apparently have good ideas, because of the people who have asked me for help, (so, like...maybe 2??), they say I'm brilliant, so--IDK.

I have a bad habit of comparing myself to other people.  Be it looks, talents, achievements, etc.  

bonus positive and negative things:

i cry a lot about how lonely i get

i have one of those slushy magic cups that makes a slushy when you pour like juice in and squeeze it, (yes, that is a positive)


fun fact: i have like 3 lame "as seen on tv" objects that I love the shit out of

_{they happen to be the slushy magic cup, an instant ramen cooking bowl, and 2 snuggies, yeah i know, great, right??}

im really lame

First off, I want to apologize to the entirety of my watchers and commissioners for dropping off the face of the planet.  Let it be known that I am alive and functioning.  

I have finished struggling through finals, so the summer has somewhat started for me, and I may be on here more frequently now, but I have been suffering through a 2-month art block, (almost 3 now).  This upsets me greatly.  Drawing is part of me, but for the last while, holding my pen does little more than bring me grief and exhaustion.  Any drawing I make is gross in my eyes, and any projects I've been working on have been discarded in disgust.  Creating designs or looking at old ones upset me now.

Slowly, I'm forcing myself back into it, so I hope to be back with you all soon enough.  For the next couple of weeks, I'm on vacation, so I may be away for a bit longer, but know I am going to return.

I'll respond to comments and notes when I have the time.  I apologize to those who have waited for a response for a long time and have not received one, I will do so when I can. 

Thank you all, I'll be back soon.

~Neb.

P.S.  I also apologize that the past few journals have been nothing more than updates on my status, and I am greatly sorry.  It seems I'm only able to make excuses anymore, but know that I truly am sorry for my absence, and I am trying to come back.  Please be patient just a little while longer.
