You know, sometimes you wonder...

You wonder what is different between the doing of "you" and "others" or why "this" is different or why its not "making click" with you.

To explain a bit further what i mean is, a lot people know, if they watch me or follow me, that i try my own things and artistic design or create my own music, games or what ever i basically i do.

Before i sound maybe rude and unthankful, im not. im glad for every watcher and follower of mine and even more happy for every HONEST review or critic because it seems like i "might" do have a lot watchers on some pages like DA or FA but "silent watchers" as i call them are maybe nice to have but are sadly nothing more than a number. Most of them, if im really honest here, do not watch me for my art or creations, they do because i did draw ones maybe some original character (you know who if i just say the color blue...) in a seductive pose or similar - and yea, im not mad to say such watchers suck the most because lets face the fact that they dont watch me for my art or stuff im doing, they "thought" they watch some artist which might creates some honker-pictures from some known furry lady which literally got raped already at least 5 times by the rest of the furry fandom anyways.

*ahem*

I know i went far off track but what i mean is, the ones which -are- my more active watcher are the ones i really honor the most and not someone which literally says nothing or watches me for, well, "said stuff".

To the topic, as of late i also was looking around because i basically suffer a bit of artblock "kinda". i mean i have a theme but no idea what to draw or better, "how" to draw it.

So i was like "lets look around what other artists do. maybe i can get an idea or similar". Im sure people know what i mean.

...And...can i say...am i so out of touch? I SERIOUSLY feel like that im something of an outdated "artist" which tries to hold on idials noone cares about anymore and similar stuff.

I mean, did you guys look around "what" such called "artists" nowadays do, draw, create and use? Is there even somehow SOMEWHAT of honor somewhere behind those peoples monitors?

Again, by now im sure people know what grinds my gears but holy fuck do i have to count up some shit...

"AntiYCH"

Falling with the door right into the house, lets begin with this one.

On paper, this seems like a good idea and this could have gone a lot ways but yes, i dont name the artist who "created" this..."thing" but let me explain it because its a bit "unclear" for sure just by reading it. I mean, you could have thought its a nice script or some pose idea with random pictures or figures right? hahaha - no. Nada. compliedly wrong.

If your idea was basically that you pay a kinder surprise egg with the only and ONLY knowledge of knowing what you "end up" with is with your character than youre a winner. Yes, you heard it right. the "core" of this said "AntiYCH" is that you pay a price to let your character drawn in basically ANY situation. the artist you give the "permission" (aka the money) to draw your character basically spins a wheel with tags on it. those can be normal or NSFW tags ranging from normal one to literally borderline compliedly extreme ones you MIGHT dont wanna see your character in - most offer also 2 tags aka 2 spins to create a combo. The deal is also if you wanna see such "tags" you dont like your character be drawn in "gone", some artists offer an extra price to "erase" those from the wheel for you.

IF you thought already that this is basically gambling, you won yourself a new shiny toaster! congratulations! Get it on the way out of here because stuff gets more nutty than this~

"Originality"

It seems like as of late a lot "artists" tend to use a lot memes in their art next to the usual stuff they did do already and this is something i noticed a lot MOSTLY around newgrounds. I mean i dont call out names of "artists" here but here is the thing:

On newgrounds, ONE of the rules is WHEN EVER YOU UPLOAD something there that you D O N T use anything you dont have the rights to - basically copyrighted stuff and like.

So when ever i tried to upload something with something copyrighted, it gets quickly taken down which is infact a good point...

...so why the fuck do people still use and S T I L L upload videos, animations or similar with CLEARLY COPYRIGHTED (or trademarked) MUSIC?

Like is this a thing? Are only people with higher ranks are "supost" to upload videos with copyrighted content in it? I mean i dont get it, can someone clear me up? why is it that if someone uses the tetris theme, as one sample, with barely any watchers, in one of his videos, has to take it down on newgrounds wile i could name 100% FOR SURE RIGHT NOW AT ONES AT L E A S T 5-10 videos with copyrighted content in them which are LONGER THAN 1 WEEK old on newgrounds? No, im dead serious here, SOME of them got even P L A C E D for rewards n shit WITH said copyrighted content in it.

Thats what i call a great double standart there am i right? I mean i dont get the vote system on Newgrounds anyways. All i see are mostly fans buttvoting their faved "artist" just 5 stars up the ass wile real gems get nearly no vote or end up in limbo. I saw some.

I mean i could use a personal sample with "DareDevil 2" which actually DID got called out already on other pages as "small but fine hidden gem" but on newgrounds its basically a street prostitute which doesnt use any "buzz words" or looks "hip" on the first glance.

Am not mad because it is that way because i can come with another logic sample that, AGAIN, i cant be such a bad "creator" of games if literally a FUCKING SIMPLE breakout clone with some naked IMP pictures (thx Faly again) is even better rated there than a 3-year work project. Yes, this is how fucked up the rate- n vote system is on newgrounds and im honest here, i hate it, no. i dispite it.

Im serious here. I like if people sure vote my things and stuff but if they are honest, its worth more than a vote.

A lot people on other pages, and some on newgrounds, already leave comments under my work and i try to read every single one. it helps me more than 5 star-ing all stuff and basically dont leave a comment at all. Think about it: how do you think artists will learn? If you literally carry their shit up their ass or if you tell them what they maybe could better? critique, comments, communication. THOSE are just some key words here.

I could go on and on now but i had to get this out of my system because as of late, i feel like im a "diing creator". a being which only exists because i have still some honor and "faith". but yea...looking around me and seeing "things" which also call themselves "artists" or "creators"...

If those "things" which call themselves creators "mean" it, humanity has fallen from its grace not just ONE step from its ladder, just saying.
