Question for y'all :)

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 17, 2009, 8:46 AM
So, I was browsing through some stock photography looking for some reference poses for a a picture, and the thought occurred to me: when a picture has been drawn that uses a photograph for a pose reference say, but features completely different people, setting, etc. how much credit should the original photo get?

Me I would always credit the original picture because its nice and polite, but if the situation was flipped I don't think I would demand it. If it was my photography that had been used for reference, as long as the final picture was significantly different from the original I don't think I would mind if I wasn't.

But what do you all think? Really in my situation, because I'm using stock photography and crediting them I think its only an academic argument, but its an interesting one never the less :)

Other than that, tehehe I'm playing with the css skins while they're free :eager:

Well - its just occured to me that I've been on this site for 4 years. In 4 years I've posted 28 things, which is 7 a year. I'm amazed that its as many as that to be honest.

I've written and thought a lot about what I want to achieve and how being ill has got in the way of that - and it has, there's no denying that I've been a bit zombiefied the past few years so artistic endevours have been thrown to the wayside. But now I've decided to try and change that. I can't catch up to where I should be if I hadn't been ill and been able to keep developing, so I'm just going to start again.

I bought myself a new sketchbook and I've started on the basics. Basics that I've done before but that hopefully this time will develop onto the bigger and better things that I want to be able to post here. I'm starting over and this time I'll keep going. I'm determined enough, that's for sure.

Then maybe I'll finally be able to tell you the stories I've been wanting to say :).

(And to celebrate that fact I blank posted this journal - sorry about that)

I'm back. Sorry for delays on comments and stuff. I'm wonderfully sick at the moment so everything is revolving around that. Its really quite tedious.

Oh well - I shall write a real journal when I have something exciting to write about.

Wow - Final year has really taken its toll hasn't it? I finally waded my way back into my account and caught up with deviations and such. Oh well... come May I'm DONE and then hopefully I shall have time to do some work I can actually submit here? How's that for a novelty.

As for university work, I'm looking into using music to drive the narrative in an animation. I'm loving it, even if I'm stressed out of my tiny mind but oh well.

I'll stop writing now, but soon - soooon there shall be content here >_<;;;
