    Heh, maybe that's what I have to do. Throw myself into social situations with reckless abandon.

    I saw it, but wasn't sure what you meant by tackle it head-on.

    I don't know if I want to do something like that. I'm no where near as eloquent or together in real life as I am here. Even when I'm comfortable with someone, I usually can barely string a coherent sentence together. I feel relaxed around my family and closest of friends, but otherwise...I try to escape from a situation as soon as possible.

    Edit: Good night, Flutteryshy!

    Testing out a couple different Cutie Mark designs. Not sure what to go with.

    I always get Skype video calls at awkward times, because I'll log on (I'm on infrequently, for no apparent reason) in the morning before I do other stuff, like showering (again, for no apparent reason), and people will try to call me. I'll have to say, "Um, I'm just a bit busy right now", but the truth is I just look like I crawled out of a gutter.

    That's some truth, right there.

    I promise I will. When... well, from now on, whenever I'm on my laptop for an extended period of time, I'll log on.

    I go through a phase, whenever I join anything, when I just won't be on that often. I did it with this site, too, and now I'm on every day. It'll happen.

    Well, there's that little icon somewhere under my avatar and cutie mark that lets you send me a message on Skype, but maybe you couldn't see it. Add me, maybe?

    And that picture mega-frustrated me. Not because it was hard to make, which it was, but I kid you not, I accidentally deleted it three times. So, I've got a new idea. I'm going to hand-draw it, get a final copy, scan it to a computer, and then post it. It's not as if I can accidentally pick up the eraser and rub it all over the page, right? Plus, I'm slightly better working off the computer anyway... though I should practice it more. And I guess that was the whole point, anyway.

    I think it's going to have you, myself, and Blackjack in it.

    No, I never noticed it.

    I know that feeling. I was in the middle of a CMC picture. I didn't save it when I closed SAI. It's gone forever. There was alo the time I saved a picture as a jpg while I was in the middle of coloring. I never saved it as a SAI file.

    Woo hoo. Works for me.

    That's a bummer, how you lost your progress on those two. You have to save them as SAI files? I actually downloaded Paint Tool SAI the other day, just in case. Is it good?

    Yes, it is amazing. SAI has it's known file type. It's look though, you can save it in other forms, like PNG and PSD and blah blah blah.

    Swaetshrit and SmittyG use SAI.



    Anyone here familiar with the term Sellout? A question, how would you define a sellout?

    Cool. I had heard some artists use it. I'll have to learn.

    And, while I don't like the term "sellout", I would say it best describes someone who forgets where they came from, or gives it up in favor of money or prestige.

    Hmm.....that's about how I would defin it. I see it as someone that purposely change their ways of doing something to cater to the masses. In doing so they let go of what they want to do in favor of money and/or popularity.

    I consider a sellout to be someone who betrays themselves, where they came from, who made them who they are, or what they have stood for in the interest of making money or popularity (thus leading to more money).

    Like if Rarity were to turn her back on her friends and Ponyville in order to better fit in with the Canterlot aristocracy. Though I wouldn't use the term sellout for that, necessarily, since money isn't strictly involved in such a scenario. In my mind, money has to be the root cause, I guess.
