This is my official stand on people asking about using my uploads as stock or "the rights" to my work.

The ONLY uploads that can be used as stock from my gallery are the deviations that have "STOCK" at the beginning of the deviation title.
In addition, if you do use any of my stock images you must provide 3 things:
1) a comment on the original stock with a link to what you've made
2) credit to me for using my stock somewhere in the description of your work
3) include a link in the description back to my original stock submission


Also, any poems or songs I write, I am not interested in giving them away or selling them for any upcoming musician.

Thank you & i look forward to seeing what you come up with.

NEW TOY FOR ME!!!

...CAMERA! GO ME!!

ok, so far, any pictures i've taken that have been submitted here have been made with either a Kodak disposable camera (only one or two pictures) or my p&s Canon PowerShot A570 IS.

i've always wanted something a little more professional, just without the price tag. LOL

so i found a great Intermediate DSLR that suites my needs (at least the next few years), has all the features i was looking for, and best of all, fit my budget for what i was willing to pay.

i got a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi w/ an 18-55mm lens and, of course, a padded carrying case.

now i know i'll be needing to get at least one more lens, but it'll have to wait for a little while.

what lenses would you suggest to go with this?

ok, i'm trying to find out what it's called when you take dozens (hundreds) of pictures/images of random things and add them together to create a new and totally different picture.
no, it's not something as simple as PSing a picture with several hundreds of pictures/images (although it might be possible, it'd take several hours, even days, to take hundreds of images and arrange them per..... just, no).

any help from any one on this?

example:
you see a picture of a single yellow flower, with green grass growing around it, and a light blue sky. what you don't see, at least consciously (or at first glance), is the hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of pictures that make up the "original" picture you are seeing, but because your conscious mind is just seeing the picture of the flower, the subconscious part of the brain is literally soaking up and storing every single one of those images that you unknowingly looked at.



if any of you have seen the movie "Paycheck", what i'm talking about would be like the stamp on the envelope that had the front page of several newspapers in the eyes.

if you ever saw the movie Serenity, if you remember the part where everyone was at a bar trying to find "jobs" and leads for their next payment, River came in a saw an advertisement on one of the tvs then goes nuts and starts kickin ass.
that's kind of the same thing, but using video instead of a picture.
now, i'm not talking about doing something that small, but it's still the basic idea of what i'm wanting.



thanks
