Toting Snakes

Wed Jun 25, 2008, 7:28 PM
How you doin? ^_~

My word I've seen my fill of snakes the last few days...

The orange stray cat that has 'claimed' us as 'his people' decided to bring presents to us the last few days. Two Sharp-tailed snakes, one was about a foot long (which is as big as that species gets) and the other was just a little shy of a foot (maybe 8 or 9 inches).. Have you ever watched a little kid slurping up noodles.. that's what this cat looked like when he brought me the second snake T.T I was like "SPIT THAT OUT!!!" and he did... poor snake looked so confused. Talk about looking into the jaws of death... I think that poor thing got a good look at the esophagus of death. Then I shooed it off into the grass of our backyard... <,< I still don't know if the first one lived, I hope it did... But that wasn't the worst... oh no... no no.. The worst was the Gopher Snake that tried to slither into my lap while I was sitting under a tree reading my book. T.T I guess I must put off the 'I am at one with nature' vibes. Like Aurora or Snow White... except I don't get deer, rabbits, and little birds... no I get snakes, lizards, toads, and bats...

Well in other news, I think the move is off... not sure really... I might move still I might not... but I still want to sell off some of my art stuffs if people are still interested. I've been thinking about opening my Tote commissions... I do it locally... but I've never advertised them on-line. But I've got some I've done already that I'll be posting soon as a deviation and then I might sell those off. The only problem with selling my art is this... I don't think I can sell fan art due to US copyright laws... I mean I've heard conflicting things. I've heard you're allowed to as long as it's the hard copy of the work and not mass produced prints... and then I've heard the absolutely violent NO YOU CAN'T >.O I know someone who worksn the legal field and knows all things so I think I might talk to him... try to see for sure. Plus it just kinda feels wrong to me... because I feel like I'd be stepping on the toes of the creators I adore. >.< But anyway I got to thinking about it for the last few weeks... I think... what I'll do is put up some of my originals for sale and the totes... and as a thank you to anyone who buys something I'll let them pick out a print of one of my digital fanarts or originals. Not selling... just a thank you gift to go with the item... I don't think that's wrong because I'm not making anything off it. I was also thinking about perhaps thinking up a contest of some sort and giving one of my hard copy works (fan art or original) as a prize... not sure what I'd do yet >.O but I think it sounds fun XD What do you all think?

Well I'm going to get back to trying to take photos of those totes >.O curse my unsteady hands... everything keeps blurring... and I think I'm going to try and finish the next part of the Milk comics... T.T I need a new mouse... this little one hurts! *whines*

I honestly didn't mind the snake getting near me, I'm not a bit afraid of them... but I didn't exactly want one in my lap.... >.< heh heh... lizards on the other hand... can't hardly keep me from them. I love holding them... and don't care if I get bitten by them.

I lost my coat!!! Have you seen it? It's white and has straps all over...
I don't know about the commissions and fanart selling. I've seen doujinshis for sell at conventions, so I think something is legal.

If you want a contest, how about best kH and DN crossover? You seem to like that cute concept well.

Aww!!! You poor snake attracting person! XD Oh... you know... hmm... I don't think it's illegal to sell fanarts unless it's mass produced like you said. I mean, really... tons of people sell there prints here and at cons and whatnot and many of those are fanarts. :3

I know that's where I hear the argument about it being alright... >.O because of conventions and such. We'll see I guess ^_^

SQUEE!! I would love that, I do so love that cross-over XD

You're the person that made it work. I'm trying to think of how L would handle the KH world, let alone in Demyx's place.

Look on the bright side, D, at least you didn't attract spiders....

....I hate those things with the fiery passion of a thousand suns. That, and they make me go "@#%$#!&" :faint:

Anyway, I'm more literary-savvy than I am law-savvy, but if you feel conflicted about selling things the best advice I can give is to not sell anything and do some research. Play it safe for now.

O.O; oh my... no spiders.. I think I'd freak out... *shiver* anything but spiders...

That's my feelings too actually... I just, I feel fine giving away fan art and such but not selling it >.< I guess I wouldn't make it in Artist Alley at a convention...

True, very true... That's why I just don't know.. but I'll find out the details soon...

I don't believe it is illegal...hmm... :/ A lot of Deviants sell fan art via DeviantArt, and I haven't heard about there being issues. Logically, yes, the characters belong to the original owner, but I don't think that rule is really enforced as strongly as it could/should be.

I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. If you do too and aren't scared to admit it, then copy and paste this in your signature. :hug:
