server's down! 🎉🎉 we did it guys good job
jokes aside, wishing everyone a happy Christmas in July, good luck, and have fun! remember good fighting etiquette o7
i'm really not surprised the art fight server isn't responding given how massive it's become. not really mad either. nothingburger first world problem to complain about lol. BUT ON THAT NOTE, WORD OF ADVICE: SAVE REFERENCE SHEETS. always dl the characters' refs that ur going to attack in advance for when the site inevitably has its downtimes.
i'll probably put out a proper update journal like i usually do later when my head doesn't feel fuzzy. i'm honest to goodness blanking right now. lost in the art sauce.
i'm still actively prepping but putting it out into the universe! https://artfight.net/~cannipal
i'm (almost) guaranteed to revenge 🤞 since i prioritize them most. my yearly goal are 10 attacks and i really wanna try and make it this time. knocking on wood.
decided to impulsively make a new account after so many years. i used to play Ovipets religiously around the age of fourteen. i remember the only thing about it that was frustrating was that your pets can actually die, but given i am an adult no longer in grade school and can maintain regular computer access, i think i can keep on track nowadays LOL. if you also play, the user is the same as my FR, find me @afterblood! ^w^
also got back into Neopets and thank goodness my pets did NAWT die. i was gratefully surprised my months long disappearance from it didn't have disastrous effects. managed to yoink a Hissi on Hissi Day; the only goals that are left is to finally get a Varwolf and a Darigan paint brush for it 🤞 if only TNT didn't make scary cave map pieces super difficult to get grrr.
in other news i've sadly been having a pretty rough art block TBQH, but i think i'm slowly pulling myself out of it. there's been this one WIP i've been chipping away at for the past couple months because it's been giving me some pains here and there, but i really would like to finish it. i at least think maybe if i jump this hurdle i can get back to updating references for Art Fight. speaking of, very exciting to hear that the BBCode is being transitioned to HTML editing sitewide! as user and beginner friendly as BBCode is, i think this is a big improvement in terms of customization. it's been really neat watching how Art Fight's infrastructure has been improving since its change of hands. hopefully the site is perfectly functional when July hits this year!
hello, posting this here as well because i have at least somewhat of an active following (i presume) and perhaps an even wider audience. as it says on the tin, a very dear friend of mine has been down on her luck, and in the midst of having to draw out of this semester's classes because of such circumstances, she needs help affording the costs of her mother's death. this was all very, very recent, and she needs her mother's remains returned to her with care-- which unfortunately costs a significant amount of money.

she's made quite a leeway in her goal, and even received a generous portion in person, but still needs help reaching it fully! any donations are much appreciated, and even if you can't donate, re-shares are also very much appreciated as well!
i don't have anything actually meaningful to say. life's been so mundane (hyperbolically). save for the fact that i accidentally put too much baking soda in my banana bread recently. that was embarrassing. there has to be a better way to split tbspn from tspn visually.
i've unfortunately been in a bit of a slump. especially writing. i keep opening the docs and staring because my mind just blanks. art style growing pains are also getting to me a little. but i'm sure i'll work through it like i usually do.
also pretty sure i need to get a dehumidifier. my room keeps getting muggy. need to wash my clothes and sheets but the washing machine door is broken. (again.)
happy passover!
