Hey-Howdy-Hey, Wreckers and Wreckettes!
I'm writing this journal because I have been currently getting a lot of faves for the JonXHsien-Ko drawings in my gallery. "But isn't that a good thing?" you ask? To an extent it is. Yes, I had those commissioned, and yes they are in my gallery, but the problem I'm having is that people are faving these works of art BUT NOT COMPLEMENTING THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY DREW THEM. So, I am writing this journal to warn/tell potential favers;
You can fave the drawings, but remember that I DID NOT DRAW THEM, THEY DID, SO LEAVE THE COMPLIMENTS ON THE ORIGINAL ARTISITS PAGE. THAT WOULD BE AND !!!!
AGAIN THATS
THOSE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO DREW THEM. I MAY HAVE COMMISSIONED THEM, BUT I WILL GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.
THANK YOU.

Thoughts on AI Art
The more I surf on here, the more I see people trying to fight AI art (or at least what's being peddled by devart), and again, all I can say is that it really is over for human artists and writers. Or more accurately, it's over for those seeking to make a LIVING as an artist or writer, because why should a publisher pay some human writer $100 or more from a story as well as a human artist for the same or more to make a cover for said story, when a machine can do it just as good or better? It'll save you money and you won't have to deal with some artist/writer fighting you "over their VISION!" or money! You can make a story/artwork according to market specifications without any headache AND reap the profits! Now, there's nothing WRONG with improving your skills or doing art as a HOBBY, especially in the coming future, but in terms of making a living at art or writing in the next twenty or fifty years? Nope, those days are gone. AI's here to stay, so you'd better get used to it. And if
Where to go?
Hi Everyone! So, as many of you know, the vast majority of artists on here are leaving for other sites due to AI art and DevArts policies thereof. Now, that's all well and good for PRO artists (people whose art makes them money or they are able to draw at the accepted level for 'pro'). But what about the SHIT artists, like me? Where will we go when the whole site implodes? The answer to that is....nowhere. We're fucked. Aside from some older sites like FA and Newgrounds (whose days are numbered too) the vast majority of artsites, or at least new artsites, have a "Pros only" style policy. So if you're someone at my level or worse, you're pretty much boned unless you can code your own website. You're free to comment and leave sites that may accept someone at my level or worse, but it won't do any good since they'll be gone too.
Concerning Commissions
Hey-Howdy-Hey, Wreckers and Wreckettes! I will be blunt; Everyone's struggling with money these days, myself included, so, for the first time in a long time, I am, as the title says, thinking about taking...........commissions. What I DON'T know is how much I should charge, if I decided to do this. Now, from my perspective and given my artistic....................................................................................."capabilities"...............here's what I would consider to be a "reasonable" pricelist. Pencil.....$0.25 Ink, no shade.......$0.50 Ink, shade.......$0.75 Color.......$1.00 I shit you not, this is what I think my art is worth. However, many, MANY people I've talked to say my art is worth considerably more, and that's why I'm writing this journal. I'd like to know what you guys honestly think my art's worth, and what I should charge for it should I go into commissions. I might also leave a poll since this is kind of a statistical thing too.
