. .___________ ARTrage _________. .







these are some works of mine
for which I used (partially or entirely)


. ....... ARTrage ....... .


- what is ARTrage?
it's a nice, small, FREE software that allows you to mimic
the traditional oil, watercolour, pencil and stuff without
messing around with layers, filters and all the lovely adds on we are used to
- it's very simple, few options, a bit... raw, but effective -
it's very naive, and impetuous - it's just like doin' the real thing!


:painter: here's the link -----> [link]

. . HAVE FUN!

...these following artists are among my favourites - what they have in common is the fact they are not too popular - and it's a shame! Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

then I decided to post them in here, so that my journal readers could get a chance of sharing with me the beauty of their art





my friend ~Myne has shameful few pageviews, and a great witty varied style - I think he deserves some more attention...[link]

sensitive, emotional, intense - my friend ~LordJay always puts his vibrant himself into his beautiful pieces[link]

~Bitememanic will amaze your eyes with continuous explosions of gorgeous shapes and hues - get ready for a digital fireworks show! [link]

I love ~squidink, especially the fishes - take a look! ---> [link]

...and for all mountain's lovers *edelweiss26 has some great stuff in his Gallery - check him out! ---> [link]

...and =altergromit has a very unique and varied style and feeling - check her gallery out if you are in search of fresh, not obvious, spontaneous impressions ---> [link]

now let me recommend you ~sevenofeleven - a great artist - his 2D pieces are stunningly beautiful, a wonderful example of what can be done with few colors and brushes - but an immense talent - I quite adore his work [link]

I'm afraid it's time to say farewell and leave, friends - :devart: is playing tricks with us again
when submitting, a new Submission Agreement appears on the screen:


Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


DON'T MINDLESSLY CLICK ON THE "I AGREE" BUTTON!!!!

read carefully this new version (are we sure is it new? has it been changed already, and we were not informed?) - I'm very disappointed

I apologize for the bad quality of the image - you can read the whole thing just clicking on the old good friend, the "Submit" button - read it, but I think you'd better NOT agree

maybe old Sharkcloud is gettin' more and more paranoid - but to me, this agreement would mean I grant dA the right to use any of my deviations, modify them, mutilate them, insert them or part of them into a totally different image... they could use my pictures to promote a sharks' fins soup,
and I couldn't complain anymore - at least, this is how it sounds to me

if anybody has a better vision about this topic, please leave a comment on this journal
if anybody reading this may think this topic is relevant, please do your best to inform as much Deviants as possible

thank you for your attention

Yikes!! I haven't submitted in awhile and can't remember what the old agreement says.... I wonder if this was said with the ones I do have submitted....... scary. Do I want to be a part of a "community" that can basically steal my work? I wouldn't mind seeing what someone with a legal background would say about this contract as well as someone in charge here at dA. I smell something fishy here and I don't like it........

Is it okay to totally not care? I mean, I care a little bit, but hey, it's the only worthwhile artsite out there, I have an established fanbase, I've been here several years, and nothing could disappoint my biggest admirers more than me just leaving like this. I think you should stay, really. I don't see a big problem here, and if you do, you should get a petition or something.
I don't want to lose a friend I have here because of this...

this is the last fucking straw... fuck dA let's go make a new art site that's better

well, I'm not leaving yet, as I'm just tryin' to make some noise about this new Submission Agreement - I'm surprised it seems everyone has just clicked "I Agree" without reading those lines - those lines are pure bullshit, to me, so I won't agree - that means I won't be allowed to upload anything more - but I'm staying
I sense you are not worried by these new terms and conditions, and I sincerely wonder why they don't bother you - would you accept dA make use of part of your works distorting it, framing it into any kind of contest they want, and you have no rights to complain about it? 'cause this is what is stated in those lines I enlightened in the image on my journal
I think this is a bad mess - I would ask you to think a bit more about it - I'm not asking you to leave, just give some visibility to this topic through your journal, for instance - obviously, only if you reconsider it and decide it's relevant
but you won't ever lose me as your friend, you know that! :heart: :hug: and you can always email me at sharkcloud@myway.com !

I was very happy and comfortable here in dA, I love this site, it's too bad they are asking us this much - I wish we could do something so to bring this topic to a wider attention, raise some debate, stir some fuss... I'm not leaving yet, but I won't upload anymore
if you agree with me - not with dA - please post something about it on your journal - this won't affect your art, and maybe could help other Deviants not to click the "I Agree" button without reading like everyone is apparently doing right now
thank you for your comment and your attention, I appreciate it :nod:
