so, the new flickr...

yeah, so i'm not so sure how i feel about this flickr redesign. really not a fan of all these huge images running into each other and taking over the screen. space, please! also annoying is the fact that they seem to be beta-testing it on all of us, with all the bugs i keep running into. sigh. maybe it just needs some getting used to... i've been there since 2006, so i'm not going to just up and run off to another site just yet. i did set up an account over at ipernity a few years ago, but i'm not nearly as active there.

buuuuut i think i could fit a lot of stuff in a terabyte.... and the coolest thing so far (for me!) is getting my old photos back that had run over the photostream limit.

my very first upload.


it's been really interesting to see all these old forgotten photos, although some of them did make me a bit melancholy (see: shana, the college years). time for a bit of weeding out, i suppose..

maybe flickr will actually take our criticisms to heart. maybe something new and awesome will come of this. maybe one day i'll finish my degree. ahem. ah well..

(as a post script, may i point out that of my wantlist from 2008, i have at this point acquired only five of 16. boo!)

hello there! so uh... 2020, huh? ugh. so i've actually been drawing again after like a really long time. except this time i'm working on getting better at using a tablet. i learned drawing and painting and whatnot on traditional media, and my brain always seemed to rebel against doin it digital. lately, finally, it's starting to click. yay! i also got myself on redbubble and put some stuff up there just for the heck of it. still feeling things out. i used to be like, yeah i should totally get into silkscreening and stuff. yeah, never happened. so i'm happy that there's this kind of stuff out there now, and that it's easier for people who don't have access to the equipment and all to jump in and get started. right now there are some simple patterns and weird little drawings. also a couple of my old doll photos. unfortunately can't locate the higher-res versions of most of them. although, i never get rid of anything so they'll probably turn up at
