A Post In Rant Minor

ideas are bulletproof
A small rawr/grr/twitch/annoyance. I'm working on this art piece, and it's turning out a lot better than I expected it to, therefor I'm putting more effort in to it. I was having trouble getting the hair to look realistic, so I looked up some tutorials for examples. My main problem was the boards/sites/listings were swamped with photo retouching tutorials. That's not what bothered me.

What bothered me were the endless amount of photo manipulations tutorials. All the "Make your photo look like a painting!" and "make your photo look like a fantasy portrait!" I'm sure it takes a lot of practice or skill to be able to make a photo manip look convincing. But I don't consider it art, and I don't think it should be filed under an "artistic" category. Ah well.

One more small rant: How do people make it so EVERYTHING is about them. If you piss me off, don't excuse yourself by saying you said something because of your traumatic upbringing. What the hell.

IN OTHER NEWS: Yay I found steak in my freezer a little while ago. I was like "lolwut." I've been eating sandwiches for the past week and had no idea that stuff was in there. XD Fail.
