bzzzz

I haven't posted any of my art on here outside my profile bird, so here's a cazador I painted a while back for practice. I had no idea insects were so fun to do! I may just draw more of them.

Blog Layout

If anyone has suggestions for the blog's layout and CSS, I welcome ideas. I do, for the most part, wish to keep the colors simple and the interface minimal. It is all about the content in the posts, after all. I confess I am a bit rusty with xhtml/CSS, but can easily switch things around as needed. If the layout is difficult for you to read, navigate, or understand, please contact me in some way and let me know!

I do so enjoy procrastination!

You know, I have wanted to do something like this blog for the longest time, but only actually acted upon the urge recently. I'd decided what I wanted to do upon the creation of my Tumblr but procrastination took hold once again. Finally getting off of my lazy butt, my Google+ account and this blog are all up and running! Thank goodness for queues.

"But what is this blog?" you ask? A means to spread content! I make things (albeit slowly and in the laziest way imaginable) and know what a pain it can be to get your name out there. Since I love art and such and do care about the community, I thought to myself, "Why not make a promotional space? Then lots of people would benefit!" Best of all, I'm doing this for fun. Promotion that doesn't cost a dime. It's completely free!

Of course, there will also be my own nonsense here, from creations to ramblings, so it won't be all promotions all the time. Just most of the time. I'm hoping to post at least 1 other content creator per day, as well as entertain with an occasional online song-and-dance for you all. I'll be sure to wear my most dapper hat.

That said, all art I post will include the artist's name and/or username, as well as a link to their art galleries. Any games or game content will have the creators' names (/team name) included, and a link to either the game itself or the game's site, depending on the circumstances. If ANY content creators object to their work being displayed here, I urge them to contact me; if all checks out, it will be removed. On the other hand, if you'd like your work displayed here, let me know! I love seeing new artists, designers, and all you creative people out there. I refill the queue weekly, so you may not see your suggestion right away but if I say it'll be displayed, it shall be so!

So here's hoping the blog takes off! The more interest it gets, the more people will see your content, the more cool stuff you will get to see, and the more effective of a boost it will be for creators having trouble getting some attention. If you are interested, I can also be found on Twitter at https://twitter.com/thehappycorvid where I retweet art and other things. I also follow back!
