Even though I have been kind of neglecting this account, I have to say that I appreciate every fave, use of my photos in projects, and comment (especially comments and use!) that I get.


I know I don't thank everyone individually any more (thanks to all the garbage changes on DA's interface), and I also know how FREAKISHLY hard it is to actually find anything in the site any more. But understand that I'll keep posting pictures and I certainly hope folks will keep faving, commenting, asking questions, supplying useful information, and using my photos in their art projects!

Wow yet another 2 years between journals :D

My normal stock rules remain the same:

***************STOCK RULES FOR DTF-STOCK******************
You may use this as reference for artwork or in manipulations. You MUST provide credit: on DA, please link to this image and/or my profile and give credit in comments, if OFF DA credit MUST be on artwork and if possible linked back to my profile here. Please link to me what you create! I always love seeing things made with my pictures!

********************************************************

If you have a piece going online anywhere, please post it HERE too, if you have an account on DA there's no reason not to post your work with my stock in it here first - I make exceptions when it's a gift and you want it to be a surprise but I don't want to see a bunch of "only on tumblr" pieces - I don't use tumblr though I have an account, it confuses the crap out of me and I dislike its format greatly. I won't say "don't put it there" (or anywhere), just obviously if you have a DA account, *post it here too please* so I can fave it and show off your work!


*** UPDATE for ADOPTIONS and SALES ***

Going around the DA adoption scene right now are 'aesthetic adoptions' where an image inspires a color- or creature-theme. My photos ARE OKAY to be used in this manner, for point-sales (only) of adoptables IF AND ONLY IF I am given credit and link to the adoption / aesthetic page. If you would like to use a significant number of my images for inspiration, please donate some points to my adoptable account :iconworld-of-zekira: and show which ones you're using as always.

I don't mind you making points but not money - for that you'd need to work out something with me.

For items you wish to sell using my stock, prints or other such things, if they are found on DA I expect to be asked permission first. For a real-world sale I would certainly like a donation of some kind which can be in points (equitable to 5-10% of your asking price depending on how much of my photographs are involved in your sale piece).

(Wow it's been more than 2 years since my last (awful) journal... so folks know I'm doing okay, living with friends and taking care of the house we all live in. It's a good gig, I like it here and am among friends, and can house-elf to my content.)


Our house has a nice bunch of plants growing in it, some food and some decorative. Obviously I've been taking pictures over the last couple years (the grape vines are at it again by the way) so as nice opportunities present themselves I will dump bunches of photos on you all.

As always, I do have rules of stock use, but they're very loose:

So, I'm officially homeless, though I've got a couch to crash on and good enough friends to help me store my stuff. I wasn't allowed a third day to evac my crap out of the house. Not that almost anything left would FIT in the storage room I have.

Anyway, I need a job and more permanent housing, but otherwise I'm doing okay. My arm is healing well and didn't really hurt all that much yesterday on the last move (unlike the prior friday when it was HORRIBLE and I was really a wreck) and I'm writing again.

This isn't the phase of my life I'd ever anticipated or wanted, but here I am.

Prior info from a couple weeks ago
****

So on the 23rd I was evicted from my home of 12 years. Barely got my shoes, phone, meds and laptop. Chuck managed to get 1 cat of my 8 out, so I'm staying with him and his family.

Did get my arm hardware out yesterday, that was fun. Now I can kind of move but not well and certainly not without a little pain.

No job still, but at least with internet currently I can at least apply.

All my stuff is in my home and I can't access it until the managers allow it through the lawyers going back and forth.

Just ... yeah. Sucks.

So I was riding my bike home from Starbucks yesterday and managed to faceplant trying to go onto the sidewalk about 3 blocks from home. Literally: I've got a gash in my chin with 7 stitches in it, a massive bruise and black eye, and get this:


Two broken arms.



My left elbow is a radius head fracture which is easy to deal with, but my right wrist is severely fucked and will likely require surgery to fix. So I'm typing one-handed with my off hand.

My terrific friend ashigaru got me home from the hospital and got my groceries today, drove me back to 'bucks for me to update things.

So... yeah, this is pretty much the 'rotten icing on that stale cake' of my life. I have a total of 380$ to my name just now, as well as a couple dozen in my paypal. But I owe like 440$ to get my driver's license back, just the consultation for the surgery will be 265, and that's not even looking at the er bills.

So I can't write really, until I know what my wrist will be doing (it's in a full splint and I can't even reach keys w/my fingers on that hand.

No games, I can't sit in my living room chairs because of all the cat barf and mess, nor clean it up like this. Sigh.

I'm really trying to hold my shit together but this is obviously not helping.

Still accepting donations at any rate, paypal is my lethe@droppin-the-fork.com id.

Thanks everyone for the support already, I've just got to wonder whether I was Hitler in a past life to get all this bullshit in my life...
