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

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

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.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Tablet Woes - need teh helpz pl0x

Journal Entry: Thu May 3, 2012, 8:18 PM

Heeey! I have some tablet + SAI problems, and I was wondering if anyone could help. I just got a Wacom Intuos4 Medium to replace my broken Hanvon tablet, but Paint Tool SAI won't allow me to utilize pressure sensitivity anymore. I've looked for solutions and tried a bunch of stuff like opening SAI then plugging it in, installing the newest driver, 'removing all preferences', etc etc. Alas, none of them worked. All of SAI's and the tablet's settings are pressure friendly too, so it has nothing to do with that. Does anyone have another method? Thanks.. D:

EDIT: NVM FIX'D!

Why not get Photoshop from Amazon?

~GirGrunny May 28, 2012 Digital Artist

I'm not a fan of Photoshop for making art, just effects and other things. Anyway, I don't need it. The whole tablet problem was fixed.
*last line of the journal*
It didn't work with any program (including Photoshop) due to a driver issue.

~DarkJanet May 28, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Oh, I see. Well, I bought Wacom Bamboo Connect from STAPLES. I used it if it was no ordinary photoshop. So I have to get paid on next month I will get Adobe Photoshop from Best But, Walmart, wherever else place to get this. And also, I think I want 21" cintiq wacom tablet. It must be better than Bamboo Connect. Yeah, I got a job, anyway. As soon as I earned my money so high, whenever I want to buy something.

~SamusFanboy744 May 5, 2012 Hobbyist Photographer

Someone said to get rid of all user preferences in the Wacom Utility, not sure if it will work, but it's worth a try.
Usually in a case like this, it's probably just because SAI is outdated and doesn't support newer Wacom tablets and the only reason the tablet works for just drawing is because it's picked up as a pointing device so any application will use it but anything that doesn't support it will not be able to use pressure sensitivity, but as I said, try clearing your preferences for the tablet in the Wacom Utility and then try it in SAI.

~GirGrunny May 6, 2012 Digital Artist

Thanks, but I've tried that several times and it didn't work... :+

~SamusFanboy744 May 6, 2012 Hobbyist Photographer

It's a shame then, it appears SAI is just outdated and doesn't support the newer Wacom's, if they ever release an update to SAI I'm sure your tablet will then be compatible and another thing, the leap from SAI to Photoshop is pretty extensive for most people and PS will take a little while to get used to, but best of luck and sorry your Wacom doesn't work with SAI.

=Mewball May 4, 2012 Student Digital Artist

1. Are the lights on the tablet on next to the buttons?
2. Do the buttons on the tablet work?
3. Try testing the pressure in another program like Photoshop or GIMP
4. Do the buttons on the pen work?
5. Does the mouse work?

If all the hardware is working correctly but the pressure still doesn't work in Photoshop or GIMP then you might have a faulty pen or tablet :/ I've had my Intuos4 for about a year and a half and i have never had this problem (on OS X or Windows XP/7

~GirGrunny May 4, 2012 Digital Artist

The tablet itself works perfectly. Sadly though, I just called up Wacom and they said the Intuos4 isn't compatible with SAI. Thanks for the help though x_x

=Mewball May 4, 2012 Student Digital Artist

that's bullshit. I use my intuos4 with Sai all the time...I guess the new intuos4s (mine is 1.5 years old) don't? That's silly.

Gonna use photoshop then?

~GirGrunny May 5, 2012 Digital Artist

Man, you're right! I just tested it out on a bunch of programs and it isn't giving pressure on aaanything. That Wacom dude was probably just trying to sell more stuff by saying it only works with Photoshop & Corel Painter. I'll try to fix it and use it with SAI.

And yeah, I'm gonna try to get used to Photoshop as well since it's such a powerful program.
