If you intend to enter your doll, you MUST submit her by midnight! The tournament starts as soon as it becomes October! http://requiemart.com/blog/contests/

The theme for round 5 was “History” This is a difficult theme, because not much of history is visually iconic enough that you can post a single picture and anyone will know what it is. I decided to go with the siege of Troy for multiple reasons: 1) it would make a great visual most [...]

I group most design/photo theft into three groups: personal/nonprofit, for profit, and deceptive.  Any kind makes some people frothing mad, but the first one generally makes me shrug and go “I wish they asked, because I almost certainly would have said yes”, the second annoys me more moderately because I don’t feel someone should be [...]
