YOUR ART HAS VALUE! (and how to price it) by DanSyron, journal

YOUR ART HAS VALUE! (and how to price it)

Feb 8, 2016

Hello everybody! I get asked frequently ‘how do you price your art?’ “How do I evaluate how much I should charge for commissions?” etc. Recently, I’ve read a few disappointing posts on how some people devalue either themselves or others’ art purely because it is posted online either as digital or traditional. We often see people with very low prices being taken advantage of by commissioners who want to obtain amazing art for pennies on the dollar without notifying the artist that maybe their prices are too low. On the flip side, we also see people who complain that art is ‘too expensive’ w

Taken from here: , who took it from here: The first fifteen people to comment on this journal, I will put their avatar and the three deviations I like the most from their gallery on the list! If you comment, you have to make a journal like this and do the same thing, putting me in the first spot. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone! If you don't re-do it you will be taken off the list! 1) ~DZ-Aladan (https://www.deviantart.com/dz-aladan)DZ-Aladan (https://www.deviantart.com/dz-aladan) Through the different works I saw I was drawn to these three. As I have been feeling not too great as of recently, it's nice to see something simple and lighthearted. From t

Dragons in different universes abide by different rules; some are friendly, some are clever, some are pure evil, and some are trainable. What all dragons have in common is that in the realm of TV and movies, they need to look good to properly play their part in the story. There are hundreds of dragons that have shown up on screens throughout the years, so while

1001 modi per installare linux

May 9, 2012

Una cosa che più mi piace di linux è il fatto che ci sono molte alternative. Ed alternativa È sinonimo di libertà. N.B. queste sono esperienze personali testate da me ma non mi assumo responsabilità se combinate casini col pc, se trovate errori/incomprensioni contattami, mi aiuterete a migliorare la guida CD Inserite il cd di linux accendete il pc ed ecco fatto, possiamo provare il sistema senza installarlo, in modalità live, ed installarlo dall'ambiente desktop oppure installarlo con l'apposito installer. In entrambi i casi potrete scaricare gli aggiornamenti da internet. USB Possiamo creare usb drive con

:bulletgreen: What are SOPA and PIPA? The United States Congress is proposing two laws that address the problem of wide-scale unlicensed distribution on the Internet of motion pictures, songs, trademarked goods, and patented pharmaceuticals. One of the proposals is called SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and would direct search engines in the United States to block Internet sites outside the United States that are primarily engaged in distributing unlicensed content.Another proposal called PIPA (Protect IP Act) would block websites located in the United States as well.The Obama administration is putting a stop to these pr

I've ran into a VERY annoying problem, so I decided to open Ko-Fi commissions to solve it. ko-fi.com/dzaladan • Sketch - 10$ • Flat colors/hard shading - 22$ • Soft shading - 30$ All of these with a simple background only. Click on each to see an example.

Eclipse: why I think the uproar is overblown

6 min read

OK people, today I want to voice my opinion about this and I'm going to be blunt. But it won't be about Eclipse itself as much as the uproar about it. For starters, let's make something clear: Eclipse is FAR from perfect. It's missing several features and some of the things don't work that well, like: Sorting favorites relies on a window appearing for a split second, and sometimes not appearing at all, forcing me to unfav and re-fav something so I can properly sort it; The selection by dragging the mouse has been removed; "Select All", for deviations, only works in the "Deviations" inbox, instead of "All". Just to name a few. In its current state, it's mostly just pretty to look at. That said, however, I've been on this website for well over 10 years and trust me when I say this: every single time the website changes, people start complaining and/or protesting. Every. Single. Time. And this feels no different. Sorry to say, but I know how it's going to end already: people
