I opened up a Paypall account \o/

I feel like such a dinosaur, though. Even my parents had one before I did..  :-[

@_@

But-- Dinosaurs are epic!!!!!!!!

But she was familiar with the way of ideas, and she let it
shimmer, looking away, thinking about something else.

I rather be an Angel >.>'

Next step will be to actually buy SAI. But the linked bankaccount has to be confirmed first. Which takes days v.v

Fae Brin

Dinosaurs roar... >.>

Ew. 

What's SAI? @_@

Basically it's a lightweight drawing/ painting program which I'm in love with.

You know-- I enjoy watching people draw. It's mesmerizing.

I enjoy drawing.. And I love working with SAI, but my trail period has been used, so.. need to buy it now. And I shall. I'm too addicted not to. Plus, it's not expensive at all. Photoshop and Corel Paint cost a lot more and I dislike working with those two programs. So. Win/ Win ♥

Fae Brin

For a while in highschool, we worked with Corel-- I didn't like it. ><

SAI is quite epic. You can even use it quite well if you don't have a tablet. Mousing works. Just takes more time to get what you wish. :)

Fae Brin

My friend has a tablet-- which I found very difficult to manipulate. @_@

But I managed to make a cotton candy twister thing-- which she then erased. ><

Took me a few days, too. And took a week before I no longer got a headache from drawing that way. It takes getting used to, but it works more intuitive them mousing. Which basically means I can translate my thoughts better to the PC.

Does that mean you're a dinosaur??? ^_^


I suppose. I only used it the one time-- cause she was busy teasing her then-not-yet-boytoy.

Hmm.. I got it because mousing was doing my head in.

No apologies necessary.  I've been toying with it for selling stuff, but I'm still too paranoid.

I have the same thing, to be honest. But.. SAI can only be bought with a Paypall account.

Lesser of two evils.

Exposing yourself to Big Brother or living without SAI.

Honestly do not think one can live in society without being exposed to Big Brother.
Anyway.. I will not derail the thread ;)

@_@ -has forgotten the point of the thread- Hn?

Oh. That. pff. I'm not known for my ability to stay on topic.

I realise it's probably far too late to mention it, but last month, I had my first proper acting job.

Fae Brin

Not at all, declare away!

I got SAI.

Yes, I know it took ages xD

Asides having to get money on the paypall account, I also had to manually install the certificate into the program with the aid of a very interesting Japanese-English manual.

I'm quite proud of myself ♥

I got a $300 wool coat for about $72.  *dances and grins*  Clearance sales are the best!

Oh and not so much a personal victory...Mr. InkS bought a long leather coat and he's delicious in it. *even bigger grin*
