All About DaggyInk & Jowah!

I have been a real busy Talu in real life :/ have to write a paper that MUST be 80% that is due next Wednesday, so a bit pressure there. Plus a gay quiz on next Tuesday.

MaiTalu and my love of art

Anyway, I love art, and it all came down to one incident ‘-‘. Back when I was 16, it was my crush’s birthday. I was sort of a “geek” in computer so I bought her a “clock” for birthday presents. Apparently “Giving Clock” in Chinese means “Signing your death warrant”. So I “technically” gave her a death warrant. Well in the end, she paid me a buck, so “technically”, she bought the clock off me! ^^ But then a year later, I gave her a present, customized and she describe her feelings

“no word can describe how touched I am”

Anyway, giving a clock was probably one of my most embrassing moments in my life.. so at that point on, I learned about art and customization. I personalize most of my presents now, either I don’t do it, or I do it and put my heart to it. I’d rather give a friend a present every 2 years with heart, than 1 that’s half ass made ‘-‘

I’ve made a card for Cier b4 =P, its a storyline how we met ^^; For awhile Cier hated me cuz she thought I always rofl at her not having Erase -.- well she took it the wrong way, but think its because of that incident that we became good friends in FF XD.

Anyway, to love art, you got to learn how to realize good art that’s around you. Clicking around deviantart, I think Daggy is probably pretty high up there ^^; (or Farkee’s friend ‘-‘) Its not done but thought I’d share it ‘-‘.

DaggyInk and my Opinion ‘-‘

Daggy is one amazing artist imo, I’ve look through her deviations and all I’d hav to say is.. Wow… I wish I knew how to draw. What I really like about her art is probably how she draw emotions such as the drawing above or.. this (lol). Daggy’s email is an artwork too, every sentence she wrote had emoticons, like typed ones. Let me give you an idea…>u<; *^^* ^-^, either she's too hyped up due to too much sugar, or she puts art around her life lol. Now that's a geek! Anyway, I've donate a little bit of moeny for her to devote time and effort to draw Talus for me :3. Afterall, its time and art supplies that she needs to draw! The Daggy's drawing will be used for next banner (since Farkee quit drawing!). Daggy's artwork is breathtaking '~", what server is she on again? :o I've also spent like 200us on making a "real" mini ceramic of my taru :o, yes spending so much money on "art". I'll take a pic of it someday but not now! Other Stuff!

Holding the vids a bit back :( busy Talu!

Internet Explorer 7 is out btw ‘-‘ (like yesterday). You can download it here (official Microsoft website) if you want. You do need a legit Windows XP to install. It checks 2 times during installation. I realize the blog looks like mad shit in IE7, working on personalizing my next theme too.

IE7’s new features and the ones that you’re probably interested would be..

• Tabbed Browsing, took the idea from Firefox / Opera
• Feeds

If you are a blog reader and sick of clicking to each blog. You might like Feeds. Feeds is a short term for the word (REALLY Simple Syndicate). You bet, its REALLY easy to use. Basically, it only takes the juice out of a website and displays it on your screen in a clean black and white document. Feeds, is the future of internet, get over it! (Its in IE, its going to be). Feeds are mostly enabled on news websites and major blogs. Hay =P being informed right away about news is pretty cool. I read on feeds, because feeds “informs” you about website update on the second blog poster press the “post” button (If you use opera browser) and… I can see all blogs in a page (bottom left, all my feeds @ google when I serach). Its very easy to use.. Press the feeds button to add that you your feeds (in IE7).. and press a few times and it would pull out a list of your feeds, and clicking on it will display it in a clean page (bottom right of the SS below). Bascially there’s only 1 button, click the feed, click a few times, keep clicking it! (Told you its REALLY Simple to Syndicate the site ‘-‘) If the blog doesn’t support feeds, the thing I circle on top left of the SS will be greyed out.
