Remember artists rely so heavily on reposts to grow and reach new people, whether it's reposting our own stuff for those who might have missed it, or sharing a piece from a fellow artist ! It's massively important for commission posts too ! Consider this before you turn off reposts 🥹

Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

Having your story all planned out before you write a single word of it is all well and good, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with figuring it out as you go either. Sometimes just getting it moving is the best way to figure out parts that might be giving you trouble.

Urging people to remember why they started creating in the first place. Forget the numbers, forget the algorithms. Those will come in time as you keep curating and refining your craft(s). Love what you do and keep doing it. Dont let it become something you hate because the numbers aint numbering.

Day 208: City reflected on water #doodles

Day 207: City I've drawn backgrounds of landscapes, buildings, and indoors from games I play. For the last week of July, it's gonna be randomized. What they will have in common is me trying to follow shorts from two YouTube artists. I'm trying to learn their ways with backgrounds. #doodles

Don't just share the most polished, professional works. Repost the people who are just starting, who are amateur, who maybe don't have the proportions or the anatomy or the color down. Remember they're choosing to pick up a pencil and enjoy the act of creating, many of them for the first time.

It's not enough to be against AI, you need to be pro art. You need to be a champion of the art you love, you need to share that passion and joy, and do what you can to support the artists who make it, because it's not enough to hate AI, to hate what it's doing to art and media; you gotta love.

Ah yes, my comic "I woke up in the dream world having the power to make this soul tangible so we're on a journey to get his body back"

IN CASE THIS HAPPENS TO YOU AND YOU DON'T HAVE A BACKUP COPY THAT YOU INTENTIONALLY SAVED SOMEWHERE... A ROADMAP TO FIND WHERE CSP SAVES AUTO BACKUPS OF YOUR RECENT FILES (instructions in Alt text)

Cranebones@cranebones.bsky.social · 3w ago

So. For some UNKNOWN REASON The CSP file for pages 35 and 36 which were the last two pages of this 8 page batch decided that today was the day to become an "unsupported file type." THANKFULLY, CSP SAVES COMPLETELY SEPARATE, BACKUP COPIES OF YOUR FILES BECAUSE IF IT DIDN'T---
