2011 was full of emotional events the world around, and our community responded at unprecedented levels. From natural disasters to historical celebrations, entertainment milestones to tearful goodbyes, our community spoke out like no other community can — artistically, creatively, and emotionally. In many ways, last year marked the final chapter of a few eras, opening the door to new beginnings for 2012. Let's take a look...

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK! I got something! So I made a bunch of videos plus I fav a bunch (mostly SAI but what you see can be translated form program to program). I thought I would be nice and share the ones I've found the most useful and fun to watch. I promise, these videos along with an abundance of tutorials, you won't even know which one to experiment with first! And this is just the tip of ye old iceberg! When I find more I'll post them. Have some videos? Why not drop them in the comments, nyo? I'll take a look and add them to the list! I'll also try to get some more manga Studio stuff up as well. :bulletgreen:Manga Studio EX4 Videos::bul

~talesofinterestplz (https://www.deviantart.com/talesofinterestplz) Out of the 805 people that voted on the last poll, 507 of you have asked to bring back guides, advice and tutorials on how to break art block. So with that observation I have decided to reinsert my time into the community as I still have great faith that each and every one of us has the patience, talent and potential to start our respective projects and persist even in the harshest environments. Let's start from the top: What causes art block? :bulletred:Trends and Industry Health As it stands the illustration community, be it video games, comic books, animation, etc. Has taken a great nose dive into the concrete

Entry 382: My personal online psychiatrist is making me narrate this nonsense down on the chip embedded in my tooth in hopes that someday I may be cured of my "incompatibility" with ANNET, or at least possibly reduce the "mild psychosis caused by work-related stress" as she calls it. I know that it's not going to happen. The problem is something genetic and while those goons in the genetics department would love to get their machines into my brain, I prefer the lack of sleep and headaches to lobotomy. I seen the reports on their test subjects: "total neural shut-down", "subject resists integration with the net, increasing the signal streng

ENTRY 9997: To anyone who finds these memory cards, and the messages left within... My name is Charles Snippy. I am probably the last sane human being left on earth. I know not whether you will understand this message. I know not whether you'll even be able to decode the ones and zeros on these data cards. I know not whether my voice will even reach anyone. I know not, whether the microscopic drives will last long enough and whether the plastic and metal which composes them will not disintegrate into dust as centuries pass or whether the titanium shell encasing them will remain in place or be consumed by the ever-changing landscape, lost

THE TINY TAG ON MY INSIDE FOLD OF MY JACKET SAYS "SG CHRISTOPHORUS HATCHENSON". THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE SOMEONE I LIKE. MAYBE I KILLED THEM FOR THIS JACKET. THIS JACKET IS SOFT AND FITTING. I AM PILOT. CAPTAIN CALLS ME PILOT, SO I MUST BE PILOT. I FLY THINGS. I FLEW THE CAPTAIN ONCE ON A MISSION OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. WE HAD A SKY-ACCIDENT. CAPTAIN SAVED MY LIFE FROM THE BURNING CARCASS OF THE FLYING COW. CAPTAIN IS MAGIC, LIKE HARRY POTTER BUT MORE MAGIC.   CAPTAIN CAN STOP CLOCKS, I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE SEEN IT. THE COW'S CLOCKS AND DIALS FROZE IN PLACE WHEN CAPTAIN GAVE THEM A STERN LOOK. THE MIRACLES OF CAPTAIN ARE INFINITE AND GREAT

I was at first too stupid to see that we were no longer using ANNIE but Annie was using us. She was a goddess in the machine, our search engine. We used her to collect and share knowledge and in return she had started to use us as her processors. It was an unexpected transition and it took a long time, thus I failed to notice it, failed to stop it. The new organism had come to life in which we were only neuron cells of her massive mind, that spanned continents. Humanity no longer had a chance to survive in it's current state. We had poisoned the oceans, we had scorched the earth and blackened the sky in our quest for power. The world we
