Fuck shit, you guys. EYE am going to rant

Mon May 11, 2009, 2:04 PM
I have an animation final. OTL
And only like 3 weeks hahaha;;;
And animation is so time consuming, right?? Or am I just slow? : P


EDIT: If I see one more gigantic close-up of an eye or emoticon gif get a DD, I might just vomit my bowels out. hahaha;;

I mean, this I can appreciate. Granted, it's not really my thing, but I can respect it for its cool factor and how it's visually engaging. Deserves a dd. And hey, even if I disagree in many ways with the amount of erotic female nudes that get dd's, I can at least understand it and say to myself "okay. Sure, she's hot. It's not particularly inventive or fresh, but sexuality drives so much of art, so I'll have to concede and let you guys' downstairs' brains do the thinking on this one."

But when they just throw out these dd's to people who did stock photos, or pictures of pets, it's kind of a slap in the face to all the amazing artists out there that earned their dailies with hard work and a keen artistic sense. C'mon dA, don't just hand them out to any old joe! D:

I -can't- appreciate it when shity stock of people's pets or AN EYE (ahhggg My biggest pet peeve) get a dd. You'd think AN EYE would get old after 5 years of deviant art ass-licking, but I . I guess not. :'D
And they all have these stupid pun names too, like EYE of the beholder, or EYE-candy (I swear to god I see this title every fifth disembodied eye photo) evil EYE, redEYE, vampEYEer, catEYEs EYE love you. Or the ever creative title with that minimalistic flair 'EYE'.

*throws up in mouth*


What are your pet peeves??? Eye'm interested to know.

PLEASE EXCUSE ME WHILE I COUGH NONCHALANTLY AND HOPE NO ONE NOTICES WHAT I AM LOOKING AT ON MY SCREEN.
:icononorobo:
ohhhh hahah It's actually way shittier than you're thinking.;;;

err The class is just a computer class that says animation, but by that it also means moviemaker and powerpoint type shit. We really only did two truely animation themes this year, but there's no way in hell I'm doing movie maker or PP for the final thing. x'D
:icontheyellowsoggylog:
fffff I might take an actual animation class next year. :iconicameplz:
but for now, i have no tips. sorry! D:

Omg D: the eye thing bothers me as well. I mean, eyes are among the most common thing I see people drawing >_> OF COURSE someone's gonna draw them well. I surely wouldn't be impressed. ._. So... yeh. D: ...

You don't know me so I'm probably annoying. *goes to hide in her box*

~I often wonder how exiting life would be, if only I would sieze the opportunity~
:icononorobo:
hahaha nooo nooo You're not annoying me at all. ;U; I find it nice of you to comment on a passing journal. <3

And I don't even mean drawings of eyes, but photos of eyes that have had the contrast blasted so much, or they're caked in make-up or retouched/shooped. OTL It gets so old so fast. At least in a drawing they actually had to sit down and do some work.
:iconchocopants:
my pet peeves are probably emoticons, random lines or swirls with absolutely no concept or image, and shitty picture quality *n*
ESPECIALLY that last one! Gah
Like, they try to use the excuse of "beautiful scenery" or "beautiful pose"
but
fuck
like
a good photograph is GOOD because it's clean or inventive or whatever. There's a shit-ton of nice scenery out there in the world, but what makes some pictures nicer to look at than others is when a nice camera is used to take it.

When you use an 800 dollar camera and a disposable camera to take the same picture, you better believe there's a big fucking difference.
:icontheamazingladyshoe:

Eye hear you 99% of the way, haha. It just doesn't bother me as much. xD
However, my main pet-peeve is when one artist has like, 23781781837813981870 dds. :C
Okay, we -know- they're amazing or whatever; show us something else now. :/
