[backformores]

aaaaaa thank you!!!!! I am also constantly in love w my url too 😭😭😭 need to shoutout my bestie skye @chaconnae for coming up w it <3

[lucky-draws]

hi so i wanted to ask u for art blog recs! specifically metal gear! i've been looking for blogs like yours but none are really very active anymore sadly so if u know any and could direct me to some that would be awesome!

ohh hello!!!! ok, i can list some ppl who i like, some of them are more active than others bc yeah ur right it's hard to find lots of super active metal gear blogs sadly...in my case i just happen to have too much time on my hands right now xD

i guess i won't like. actually tag them bc i don't rly know most of them to talk to jggjjg so i feel shy doing that but I'll just list some urls, some of these will probably be people you've already seen tbh jgjg problems of a smallish fandom

- bigmonsteras is someone whose art i love, they do a lot of peace walker stuff that's rly good! - daydreamycrustacean posts quite a bit of mg stuff and i rly like their art too, they've done some great comics. - 730chocolate has a really unique style, so i like their stuff a lot, altho they're not super active. - pyersiki is also someone i rly like, they draw a lot of kaz content lol which is great. - sgushyonka has some rly good mg stuff, they did some cool pieces as well as funny stuff. - someone who is pretty active is the esteemed ba7land ...they draw a lot of uh. bara stuff like Very Big Tits big boss but i mean good for them. they do a range of stuff actually some cute snake eater content tbh. - pe4cewalker is doing some rly nice art of, uh, surprise surprise, peace walker related stuff, some very good kaz content. - kokirby has a cool style and did some great ocelots although i don't know how active they are metal gear wise. - berserkbrandee seems to be fairly active, they do some cute otasune stuff. - littlenim does some lovely art, cool style and does mgs3/pw as well as otasune era stuff. - jxthics has some great stuff although they're not as active now mg wise i think, but i like them a lot. - crybabimeiri has done some really lovely pieces but not as active mg wise at the moment either. - groznisad has a really fun art style, they posted recently so i hope they're somewhat active. - pejuad has some very cool stuff, i love their solid snake pieces, v interesting style - truthful-tidings used to do mgs stuff, i think not as much now, but their ocs and other stuff looks cool lol - gncbigboss posts mgs art occasionally, they did some cool sniper wolfs i seem to remember - wingedtrumpet is a blog i just noticed the other day, they did a post with some funky looking raidens, so one to watch maybe

i guess also just keep checking the mgs tumblr tag for new posts/new artists cropping up! i know tumblr messed up the search so that if you go to the 'recent' section you get a load of stuff unrelated to mgs, but if you click on the 'tagged' section instead, then you actually will get recent posts that are almost all mgs related. (that's what i’ve found on mobile anyway lol)

im sure there are many good artists i’ve forgotten or not come across, these are the somewhat active/current mgs ones that come to mind though anyway. i’m only on tumblr for fandom stuff, not twitter, so i guess there’s good stuff on there i might be missing. (u won’t catch me posting on the light blue hellsite anytime soon tho LOL)

actually, for art in general, i keep seeing a bunch of disco elysium related fanart on my dash and all of it looks so good...i’ve never played that game or know anything abt it but everyone into that seems to be doing amazing art lmfao ...not relevant in the hunt for mgs blogs but it’s something i was just thinking the other day lol

i hope this was somewhat helpful, or alternatively if u already knew most of these blogs on the list then my apologies jjgjh, anyway thanks for dropping by!

and actually, i guess if anyone else wants to rec any blogs i didn’t mention - or even to plug ur own blog lol, nothing wrong with that - then feel free to drop an ask i guess and i’ll answer that here too!!

(also feel free to take a shot every time i used the words “cool” “stuff” and “lol” in this post jjjhhhghg)

[puppy-phum]

got tagged by @hils79 ♥ thank you so much, i adore every tag game that has anything to do with music :’D (and now i’ve also been tagged by @s1utspeare my beloved as well as @ashenlights my dear ♥ apparently am too slow for yall smh)

Rules: spell out your url with song titles, then tag as many people as there are letters in your url

so here goes! am trying to pick some songs i have not mentioned before, let’s see how that goes... 

Villain - AleXa (알렉사) x

promoting my girl alexa bc she’s just so cool? am a huge fan of her style even if her music doesn’t always click with me. other option would’ve been oneus’ valkyrie bc the rock version owns my ass

If You’re Hearing This - Hook N Sling, Parson James, Betty Who x

very fitting for summer with these chill and swaying vibes. this song makes me super happy bc there’s a lot of hope in it. it also makes me think about some very mundane soulmate aus where some outsider follows other ppl finding their soulmates in a cafe or library of a tiny book shop or the corner of a museum etc, waiting for their own pair to catch up

Sleepy Hollow - Su Lee x

i’ve been listening to this song for a while now but it still feels relatively new. i love the way things get added to the instrumental the song starts with and then it keeps swelling and swelling. also the lyrics are just amazing 

How Do You Sleep? - Sam Smith x

this song is my happy place. despite the lyrics this is just so funky and i get even happier when i remember the bts stuff i watched for this. sam smith seemed to enjoy the dancing a lot, and it was so lovely to see them so excited bc of how much they’ve grown and changed. love that for them 

Cover Me - Black Math x

my dear kiddo always tells me that my music taste is very soundtrack-y. this song is a proof of that. such haunting, grandiose, movie-like vibes ♥

Odyssey - Talos x

as anyone who’s been following me or has as much as touched binding knows, i’ve fallen hard and deep for talos. their music is just so nice? it’s comforting, mellow, beautiful, emotional. i love the lyrics so much. wild alee is one of my favorite albums i’ve listened to this year, so of course talos needs to be here. 

(another option would’ve been adam lambert’s outlaws of love bc i was absolutely obsessed with this weilan fmv last autumn) 

uhgood - RM x 

even if moonchild is my fave song from mono, uhgood is the song that speaks to me the most. namjoon’s ability to write songs that are relatable in their rawness but very comforting in their interwoven hope is unparalleled. every song on mono feels like a hug. he’s so accepting of the good and the bad and how those two connect. this one felt like a caress to my perfectionist soul.  

Nightmare - Halsey x

this one was harder to choose bc apparently my fave songs tend to begin with an n :’D other options would’ve been no mercy by pvris, never be like you by crywolf and not mine by day6. but i have to go with halsey bc her music has become super important to me. also, nightmare is just Amazing and the mv is even better (it also reminds me of her concert i went to last year before all the covid hassle broke out)

THAT’S A JOKE - NF x

would this be a playlist made by me if it didn’t include at least one nf song? unlikely. this album didn’t speak as much to me as the previous two did but i still have various songs from it on my playlist. this one is a banger. the brutality of nf’s songs hits me every time. (no wonder i associate the songs with liu sang haha)

sorry i cannot make yall a playlist so you have to listen to all of these separately ^^’ i hope you found something worth your while! 

tagging: @i-am-just-a-kiddo @aheartfullofjolllly @wuyus @wuxien @yibobibo @xia-xueyi @manhasetardis @jazthespazz @xiejie-liubo ♥ no pressure, especially for those who have longer urls :’D also i feel like some of you have already been tagged but i’ll tag you again in that case. have a nice day ^^

[just-calamity]

check-in-tag

Thank you @inapolaroidpicture , i’m glad i’m your mootsie, love

1. why did you choose your url?

Honestly, i ask myself that all the time, that’s mix of „just”(??? wtf Wiktoria what was in your mind then????) and „calamity” – Zayn’s song, which is absolutely amazing masterpiece and i love it with my whole heart.

2. did you have any side-blogs? if you do, name them and why you have them.

I have, but if it’s alright i wouldn’t mention it. It’s one, from the time i had ED, and i just don’t know how to delete it (or maybe i don’t want to) so i abandoned it.

3. how long have you been on Tumblr?

So long… like a few years, but know how to use it like a few months lol

4. do you have a queue tag?

I’m not sure what is this, even if i read something about it on internet, but i think i haven’t. But could someone write me somewhere exactly what are those?🙏🏻

5. why did you start your blog on first place?

Because sometimes i had something like „come on! everyone see it, why no one write about it?!” And when i wrote on Twitter, they just, i don’t know… don’t like it? don’t appreciate it? or don’t seen it?

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

Last time i just changing my blog look(?) and i fell for that photo, like literally, i have it saved in milion copies in my gallery…

7. why did you choose your header?

If i would have showing my header you would see purple-and-blue-rock-guitar-Louis, cause i love purple and blue, i love rock, i fuckin love Louis, and i’m not even started with rock-guitar-Louis…

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

Actually, it’s that 70’s-disco-Louis edit, which i do for otb project, and don’t ever thought that people could like shit like that (but secretly i like it too)

9. how many mutuals do you have?

I wouldn’t mention them here, but it’s like… 10? Yeah, i count you guys, hah, and with my new mootsie who made me do it it’s 11 :)

10. how many followers do you have?

26. Nothing more, nothing less, and i never believed more in reblog supremacy, then here, bc of my moots, who rebloged my posts they had that many notes, love you my bees!

11. how many people do you follow?

Oh god… i don’t know, it’s like a… whole Tumblr? I follow every sweetheart who follow me, i follow every larry or 1D or rock/indie/retro/heavy metal music user, which posts i like, i follow litteraly every fuckin person, who give me that good vibe, i even follow anime blogs, and i don’t like anime, so you need to trust me if you read it, bc i probably follow you, love.

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

Yeah, but ppl doesn’t catch my humour🤷🏼‍♀️

13. how often do you use Tumblr each day?

Like a… milion times?

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?

Nah, i’m just watching💅

15. how do you feel about „you need to reblog this” posts?

I totally agree with a @inapolaroidpicture , if ppl want to reblog, if post is good, they do it anyway. The only thing that change with me when i see post like that is that i always read them, no matter how long it is.

16. do you like tag games?

Oh god, i love it! But unfortunately i always can’t find them.

17. do you like ask games?

Who don’t like them? I never done any (that’s my first time tbh🤭) but i love to read them

18. which one of your mutuals do you think is Tumblr famous?

Like… every single one? Every. Fuckin. Single. One. I feel like a peasant, when i throw some shit into my dash and notifications just beep-ed from messages like „omg” „beautiful” „love it” or „xxx rebloged” „yyy liked”. That moment i’m like „guys, don’t waste your life on me, go to another 5,790421 talented moots. But then i’m like „you would just killed yourself if they did that, why’d you say it?!?”

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

I don’t think so. I mean, i could, cause you’re all amazing and i love you all so fuckin much, but i think i need to got to know you better first.

20. tags?

I think i just tag my few mutuals, if i missed someone, i’m sorry! Just hope you have a nice day, and won’t do it if you don’t want to❤️

@filthyrichdreamboat @twoghostsonehallway @thetriangletattoo @stormy-poet @hes91s @feellikehome28 @herefortommo @thehornoftheunicorn @cockytommo @fearlessmind28

[novastale]

Well, since I got tagged by @elizabethroestone to participate, I will happily do so. 😁

1. Why did you choose your URL?

Well, I must have been 20 or so and I was searching for a name to use in a forum or some chat service, which wasn't already used. So I came up with a mix of a singer I was currently listening to and tried to create something unique. It worked out quite well since I used that name for some years now.

2. Any side blogs?

No, I don't have any.

3. How long have you been on Tumblr?

Not that long, must be about 2 or 3 years by now...

4. Do you have a queue tag?

No, I don't...

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I started because I was searching for something GW2 related with Google and tumblr was mentioned in my results. Since there were so many posts that I have been interested in just by snooping around on tumblr I decided to stay a while and create an account. I didn't regret it. 😉

6. Why did you choose you icon/pfp? and 7. Why did you choose your header?

I have to admit, I'm changing icons and headers more often than other ppl their underwear... It always shows something I sincerely like. And I love Tyr! 🥰

8. What's your post with the most notes?

I honestly don't know... I don't keep track of things like that. Must be a pic of naked Alexios, I guess. 😂

9. How many mutuals do you have?

A few I think... don't think there are that many.

10. How many followers do you have?

209 (I'm not very famous 🤣)

11. How many people do you follow?

13 (and these are top quality blogs! Mostly about AC)

12. Have you ever made a shit post?

I don't think so... 🤔

13. How often do you use tumblr?

Whenever I have the time and there are notifications on my screen. Mostly I just check and leave again...

14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog?

No, I like things easy and quiet. If someone has a different opinion on a topic I usually just accept or ignore it.

15. How do you feel about "you need to reblog" posts?

I don't like them, tbh. To pressure ppl into reblogging is not my goal. I am greatful about every reblog I get, but the one thing that makes me really happy is when ppl put their own tags under my posts. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT TO READ THEM!!!

I also don't reblog everything, bc I just want things to appear on my blog which fit in and I really do like. It is my little space where I collect everything that makes me happy.

16. Do you like tag game?

As long as there are so few I have to admit, I actually enjoy them. 😉

17. Do you like ask games?

I absolutely do! Please ask me! 🤩

18. Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

For me, they all are! But I honestly don't know...

Allright, I've done it. 😁 Thank you for your attention!

Now to tag a few ppl here... Of course only if you want to participate, too.

Let's see...

I'd tag: @magicalicefairy @retiredat50 @laurdrengr @sonnefuchs @hysterialevi and anyone else who wants to join!

[pestopascal]

how do you go about commissioning someone? i want to but i hear a lot of bad stuff every so often and ive seen you mention certain artists being behind on contact so im not sure what to expect

quite frankly commissioning someone is absolutely terrifying and needs to have a high level of communication from both the person you are commissioning as well as yourself. the one major artist i have said something about and to, turns out, have had a long history of disappearing for months at a time or not being good and running off with money. found out that after i finally got something from one of them, but the other who i’ve been waiting since january on a response from... im emailing every second week and @ ing on twitter constantly by this point considering it was an upfront payment. and like i said about the first one... if commissions are your primary source of income... there is a level of expectation. i know from social media the second one has been involved in a lot of public work and whatnot, which i do support, but all i need is one email to be like “hey sorry im busy with other work”. some people don’t tell you that. or you find out through their tumblr their laptop is broken. it can be very frustrating. or they run donation and commission sale posts in between not doing your commission. so...

and as for you the person commissioning i think people vastly underestimate what you need to provide vs what ppl actually do provide. if you have some specific pose in mind provide photo refs/explain it. you dont need to do a characters backstory, 3 pages, no line breaks. summarise. clear cut on colours and clothing. and if you leave it up to interpretation then you’re gonna end up with something you may have to be like hey sorry lets correct this, which wastes time and effort and money on everyone’s behalf. like spend time going through god like pinterest or whatever to actually source what it is you are looking for. you’d be amazed that people rly to appreciate it, and also esp when artists run limited spots, the ones that are actually providing references and so on are the ones that do get picked because it makes it easier to then provide a higher quality product. its not about remembering urls and favouritism that some people like to claim, its so that they can spend more time on something for you.

that said, commissioning someone and seeing something you have in mind come to life is brilliant. personally i do have a preference for commissioning friends, because well 1) communication (sophia is so good for it), 2) its so funny dropping into the dms like kicking down their door and throwing money at them to draw something for you (something i do to hoiist and daisy regularly) and 3) idk love and support friends!!! (always all of them) also with friends too i do ask people if theyre trying something out like animations, new painting style, etc. if they wanna test on my comm i dont mind because in some instances it also helps them like work out if they wanna use it as an offer on a comm yknow?

when it comes to artists (or writers in some instances) that you dont personally know, if i cant exactly find the information on their tumblr (which happens quite rarely but does happen) i just ask. what do they need. what do they want. also turnaround time. there are people out there with art/writing styles that you do adore, or something specific theyve done in the past you want to almost have recreated for yourself. talk to them! ask if they’re okay redoing like idk a deconstructed helmet or a watercolour tarot card or a 3k word third pov fic revolving around reconnecting 5yrs later (plummmmm).  but like too ask about payments, if you can potentially do half and half (a lot of artists are honestly open to this but you just have to ask), what are their routines like with providing sketches and changes (most tend to have information available on their tumblr but... still), etc etc. and dont be surprised if you ask for some heavy tattooing and jewellery and flowers that the price goes up? ive seen people be genuinely shocked like youre asking for heavy detail... hello.... but communication is key and its also on you to ask and tell the things you want and need.

as for writing commissions, personally, kind of almost in the same boat? if theres a particular scene, a visual reference helps to be like a guiding key to get to that point, but also specific words, like talking about hands, the colour purple. personally too with writing comms i have done, i do sometimes go and search for like oc tags for more visual stuff and then translate it to text. some of my favourite pieces have been exchanges more than commissions, with crashed-down through the dragon age pieces we’ve done, and utilising the tags there. also like i ask if you want the pov to follow someone specific, do you want first, second or third, any particular time of day, etc etc etc. like this does affect tone and flow. also with mine i offer snippets as i move through to see if the phrasing is right, am i doing something appropriate to the character/s, as with art you have the. pose and emotion in one position as such yknow? with writing its a movement and kind of links through it all. if like one sentence is off, the tone could be wrong, and changes everything.

also, if something is out of your price range, i have seen an upswing in people asking that just let someone know. inquire, work it out, but if its too much just politely turn it down. yes, emails get lost and tumblr is notorious for not flagging messages so there can be unintentional ghosting but yeah i think thats a good habit to get into.

tldr; dont be afraid to commission people, seriously, its very rewarding for everyone around. be polite, ask questions, keep on top of the communication. dont be an asshole, be clear about what youre after, be kind, enjoy

[nocvil]

hewwo cuties !! im bon or bonbon or bonners u kno it !! im here to bring u my tsundere bitch of a boy bogum who is played by the wuvewy joohoney ( f in the chat for his mental health i love my Husband ?? ) !!  bogum or bo is a hitman who also takes care of his cute and lovely mother that lives with him in his apartment. below the cut i will explain him some more about him but bc of possible triggers, i won’t go too in depth. if you wanna know more about him, i have links on his blog ! onward !

tw: mentions of parental death, injuries, and elderly illnesses.

( lee jooheon + cismale & he/him ) ʟᴏᴀᴅɪɴɢ ɴᴇᴡ ᴀᴘᴘʟɪᴄᴀᴛɪᴏɴ … soo bogum is applying for unit 11. it says here they’re twenty-six and are a hitman. i guess they’ve lived in seattle for six years and i swear i’ve seen them around the market only browsing and never buying like every scorpio i know. they spent most of our tour on google news and i thought i kept hearing the amity affliction playing softly from their phone. i wasn’t sure they’d apply because before they left all they said was, “ i’m not sure if this’ll work out for us. ” ♡ penned by bon, 22, est, they/he

uhhh fair warning i’m reusing his intro from his previous group but it will be edited to fit !

soo bogum or bo i guess. twenty-five / 25. cismale. he/him. hitman and caregiver to his 52 year old ill ridden mother.

he has been in seattle with his mother for 6 years after moving away from seoul at the age of 20 to get away from the short crime life he lived there and also to kind of get a fresh start after his father’s passing. his mother was paralyzed at the waist down and the event was most likely what led into her starting to get very mild dementia.

a little insight on his mom is that basically she is never seen without bogum although bogum can be seen without her. i like to believe she is pretty well known just because bogum likes to get her out to socialize with everyone, although what degree people know her is up to whoever. she is super sweet lady when she is focused and on track and loves to socialize, meet new people, and hang out anywhere with her son. bogum is her caretaker, basically, providing her with everything she needs in order to survive.

bogum projects an outward appearance and personality of a guy who is caring, kind, and would do almost anything for someone he likes or trusts. but he can also be that guy who kinda freaks you out if you catch him at the wrong time. overall he is definitely an everyday guy who just has these weird flaws. everyone can be kinda creepy at times (:

his “official” personality written on his stats page is this:

a living oxymoron. bogum can be the sweetest person you’ll meet and also the creepiest man you’ve ever been approached by. he has a winning smile and would help almost anyone in need, but also wouldn’t hesitate to let you know he can’t stand you or he doesn’t like you. most people might see bogum as a caring person given the devotion he has to his mother and he pushes his personality that way. bogum really is a kind person, he always will be, but he is also someone who could really care less. while he is outwardly sweet, it is also not very hard to catch him off guard. if you asked someone about him, they would probably say that he is a devoted individual, but there is something off about him that is hard to put a finger on.

he is pretty set in stone because i’ve wrote him a few times. he was 1000% inspired by investigation discovery ( i mean his url is from a show on there )  and you can check out some of his pages on his blog. he has a stats page and an insight page that explains stuff that might be more triggering. i might make him a plots page. idk. probably not bc im a mess jasldkf.

speaking of, some plots i would luuuuuv for him are past friends from hometown seoul, perhaps a best friend?, someone who thinks he is fishy, someone who helps take care of his mom, anyone who could be his neighbor could have a cute plot, one sided romances ( bogum is aromantic, please keep in mind ), and idk, really almost anything. i’m not too picky as long as you respect his occupation and sexuality.

also a lot of ppl tended to love having plots with his npc mom so i mean feel free i guess LMAO

i would also like to say that i know his occupation may be triggering and because of this i don’t plan on really writing anything too detailed out unless the mun is comfortable and it is tagged and under a read more (: i respect that nobody rlly wants this scary shit on their dash because i wouldn’t either if i wasn’t playing someone like this. please don’t let his occupation keep you from plotting with me though ; ~ ; there is so much more to him than his job. he doesn’t go out hitting people 24/7, he rlly leads a pretty normal life.

i can’t wait to plot with you guys !!!!!!  let’s fuckin’ go !

[uniformbravo]

me trying to make a gif part 2 (thrilling finale, buildup ver.)

ok good news and bad news: good news being withheld for Spoilers (not that it’s that hard to guess anyway lol), bad news explained first bc, chronologically, it is first

so yesterday i mentioned in the tags of that post that i had seen that krita has an animation feature so i was gonna try importing the frames into that and then exporting it as a gif. easier said than done, as it turns out

i started by opening the file i made yesterday with 62 layers as the frames and importing that into krita, which worked fine (i didn’t know you could actually open .psd files in clip stuido ((this typo is so fucking stupid it made me laugh so im leaving it)) and krita, so that’s pretty neat, i wonder if it works the other way around too) but i ran into problems when i tried to convert those layers into frames in an animation. because, like, the layout of the program has the layers displayed in one tab, and the animation timeline in another, like so:

(do u like how im using pictures now, i thought of that yesterday after i published the other post and realized hey, visual reference would probably make my plight a lot easier to understand!! so enjoy these educational diagrams from now on)

so my goal was to get the frames from the layers into the timeline, and i still don’t know if i did it right bc lbr krita is not very intuitive at all,,.,, i mean i watched a video tutorial abt how to animate in krita which was v helpful (it’s the one by jesse j james on yt fuckin SHout out) but it was about animating from scratch, not importing an animation you’ve already done elsewhere

so like, the way krita’s animation thing works, from what i could piece together as i bumbled my way around w/ it, is that each layer in the layers tab is a separate timeline in the,,, timeline tab

i want them all to be in the same timeline, not separate ones, and there’s no way to combine them in the timeline tab bc doing that just overwrites whatever layer you’re pasting it down onto, and also if you define the number of frames for that timeline (62 for this project) it just puts the single image of that layer for all of the frames instead of just one of them, so you’d have to go through and delete all the other frames you don’t want it to be, which would be such a fuckin pain

so i found a workaround, which is so tedious that it can’t be the right way to do it, but basically i started w/ layer 1 and defined 62 frames & then emptied frames 2-62, like this

(that blue box is the frame, btw, even tho it says 0, which actually kind of annoys me like why doesn’t it start the first frame on 1????)

from there i went up to layer two and selected that in the timeline, but for some reason the frame doesn’t show up automatically?

& i couldnt fuckin figure out how to make it into like, an Official Timeline Layer or whatever tf bc like, u see on layer 1 how theres that little lightbulb-looking icon on the right? that’s for turning on onion skin which only applies when you actually have frames with things drawn on them, so basically layer 2 in the layers tab has a drawing but in the timeline it doesn’t?

i didn’t find out what the actual reason for this is or how you’re /supposed/ to make the frame appear in the timeline, but what i did was right click on layer 2′s timeline & select “create blank frame” which magically made the frame i want appear

but it’s on top of the layer 1 frame, and i want it to be the frame after. also it’s still in a different timeline. this is the only easy fix in this whole damn process, u can literally just click & drag the frame from layer 2 to layer 1 and put it wherever u want on the timeline

and then u just delete layer 2 and that’s it, frame transferred!! then i just had to do that for 60 more layers and after [unspecified amount of time but it was a fuckin while ok] my timeline looked like this!

(the gaps near the end are held frames, to save me time so i didn’t have to copy a bunch of frames that were exactly the same)

krita is great because as far as i know ur animation can have an unlimited number of frames, at the risk of your own pc’s processing power, which is a definite upside to SOME expensive art programs i know (clip studio, i’m talking abt csp) and u can pick the frame rate too (cough photoshop elements 5.0 even tho u dont technically have an animation feature & it’s a miracle u can even make gifs at all) so once i finally got all the frames situated all nice and in order like on the same timeline, playing it was great! played at the right speed, looped perfectly, it was a dream come true right

well, time to export it as a gif

ha

haha

hoooo oo  o

so u got 2 options for exporting ur animation, u can either hit “export,” which lets u save it as different file types, one of which being gif, or you can hit “render,” which gives you gif and video options

well

i tried export first, bc that seemed like a good idea, but the “””gif””” it made was distinctly not a gif, despite its claim to be one?? this is what i got:

notice: 1. it is not moving, and 2. the black bars to the sides?? those are supposed to be transparent. they’re transparent in the file i made so why didn’t they register as transparent in the export, when gifs have transparency capabilities??

so That was some real live bullshit but i still had the “render” option, right? export was wrong, so rrender must be the correct option to go to that will produce the results i am wanting to see produced in front of me like a silver dinner platter with a correctly functioning gif under the lid, that’s what i want to see and “Render Animation...” is gonna Give me that silver platter righWRONG ok look at this shit rn ok Look

it says GIF it says it RIGHT THERE right??? right?????? then WHY

?????????????

and it also gave me all This bullshit

like did i ask?? did i fucking ask???? i already have all the individual frames why do i need even M o re i mfjgjgk

((rationally ok yea thats v useful for if ur making the animation in krita and want to export the frames to use elsewhere, but like uhhh 1. again, they’re not transparent & 2. i should have the option of saying i don’t want these??? bc *meme voice* i don’t want these)

so in the end i could find NO correct method of exporting animations as a gif in krita bc every ooption that says gif is fuckign LYING to ur face there are NO gifs in krita, aliens made the progam who looked at gifs and went “hmm i thikng this is how a gif works “ and just made jpegs instead but somehow got on the computers good side and got it to lie for them about it being a gif so thats why it says gif on the file still even tho its not a gif illimati confinr

so what is the conclusion to this? well i said there was good news too, and this is the portion where i divulge that sweet nectar (i type dthis 2 seconds ago and @ me what the fuck)

so after wasting a good 2 hours trying to figure out krita i gave up and watched some good old [youtuber name redacted bc what if it shows up in search & ppl see this dumbass post in there but it rhymes with fjackfsepticfeye] to relax into accepting my fate that i’ll never be able to upload my animations to tungle except in poor quality loopless video form, making me into a laughing stock on my own art blog, but THEN i had a stroke of genius, in my Brain

so if u read yesterday’s post u might remember that flipnote studio, the animation program i use on my ds, to animate, has the option to export files as gifs, both animated and sequential (meaning either as one fully animated gif or each individual frame separately), which is super convenient, but as i mentioned yesterday, any time i tried to open the folder with those files on my laptop, it crashed immediately

WELL today i thought “hey, how about instead of opening the folder in the sd card when it’s plugged in, how about i copy that folder from the sd card to my flash drive, and try to open it there, in case it’s the card’s hardware that’s causing the problem, not corrupted files”

so i tried that and it FUCKING WORKED THANK GOD GLORY HALLELUJAH

so now instead of spedning A THOUSAND YEARS trying and failing to force art programs to bend to my will i can just export the animations straight from my ds and drag them onto my computer Just As God Intended oh GOD im so fucking happy

here’s the gif in the end, i’m gonna post it to my art blog too but this is the Green Version bc i animate in green bc of some default settings in flipnote that i got used to, plus it makes me feel like i’m just sketching so nothing really has to be finalized so i’m comfortable while i work, and also it’s just nice ok it’s a Nice Green

(there’s a few frames at the end that are like the extra scraps from while i was working dw i got rid of those in the final version that i’m posting to my art blog later. also i added my blog url to that one too it’s aaaaaall good)

the only downside to this method is that i can’t change the canvas size to be 540px wide to fit with tumbrl s image dimensions but whatever i can just post them in a text post and fix the html to display it at its original size instead of the resizing bullshit tmurbl pulls constantly ugh. anyway it works great on desktop but it’s inevitably gonna look like shit on mobile no matter what i do *Big Ass Shrug*

anyway thats the end of my success story uhh i can’t make the like comment & subscribe joke again bc i already did that in the last post so like bye i guess thanks 4 watchign & have a great day i’ll see u in my next fvideo

To A Happy 2018

This isn’t a follow forever or mutual list, I just wanted to give a little personal shoutout to some of you who make tumblr a place i want to keep coming back to.

There are many more wonderful people I didn’t mention, but I hope in the coming year to step out of my comfort zone a little and try to talk to you all more, even if it is only over anon.  To everyone who has sent me an encouraging message or anon in recent days, I was truly touched and I thank you so much.  To all of my followers, i love you and you’re doing great and i hope you have a soft 2018 filled with love and good things!!

@bbhsavocado i feel like i learned so much about u pricilla that night of the bbh in panties talk aldkjsgljk how validating to see my kinks shared n sub bbh appreciated like that, but it was also awful n i hated it. i love all ur bisexual bbh-loving content n ur friendship with some mutuals is so adorable i hope u all find great gfs this year <3 i have no idea y i took so long to follow u bc ur everything i want in a blog

@bbhsthighs nicole, u want to be a person who gives happiness like the boy who inspired ur url, and u do, u really really do. ur hilarious and adorable in ur tags and ur interactions with ur other friends on here. i can tell how much you love them and how much they love you back <3 maybe some ppl first liked u for ur humor and light, but love means accepting u when ur hurting and when u dont feel like u can shine anymore. pls dont be afraid to share that side of you with those who deserve ur trust, bc thats what a true friendship is. pls treat urself with the same kindness u give to everyone else. asking for help isnt being selfish and it isnt letting anyone down. u do not have to shine for everyone else while being blind urself. following u has been a wild ride from the day i first found ur blog and ive enjoyed every day since. this year i hope the world becomes a bright and beautiful place for you.

@bobohu elaine, im not sure who you want following you since u changed ur blog...i think u left while i was taking a break from tumblr, but i found you again from a post about the kinds of love you feel for exo, i knew there was only one person who writes like that, so beautifully and so full of love. you were one of the first exo blogs i followed and you have always been someone who radiates good vibes and sunshine. i want u to know i appreciate every one of ur positivity posts, and even in your selfies, your smile, you look exactly how i would expect from the kind of cute content you have. i want to genuinely thank you for being a fan for so long and doing what u can to make others happy. i love seeing your posts and im very happy i found you again

@boxianb ive been following u for so long and like idk how u do it but u reblog every single baekhyun post i have on my blog without fail. always. u r just all baekhyun all the time and u know what i admire that i respect that so much that is dedication and i see u and appreciate that, its exactly what i want and need in my life, thank you !!

@byunchen mel, ive seen your posts lately and how you are lonely and missing friends on here, and ive been following you for like...two years now..and we don’t really talk, im shy and you say ur shy and bad at talking.... but here’s me saying that i see you and i appreciate the time you spend on here blogging and talking. im not really active enough anymore to promise to interact a lot but this year i will try to talk more and i wish you many adorable anons and people to call friends !! thank u for coming this far and being an important part of my dash

@exolgbt around when i first followed u i was questioning a lot if i was actually a lesbian and somehow ur blog just like...comforted me ? made me feel good ? helped me try to understand myself ? seeing someone so proudly a lesbian and also so in love with exo... ive come to terms with being bisexual but i admire you and really love your content and all the exo mlm appreciation !! ur doing good work <3

@imagine-baekhyun i dont know who is running this account but ur literally ruining my life thanks i hate it !!!!!!

@kjonginswife i have to admit ive wanted to talk to u for a while alkjgslkjg its nice to see someone my own age on here, i did see ur universe reaction and i think youre adorable haha i dont follow a lot of non-bbh stans and honestly i think i followed you at first by mistake but i have never regretted it !! idk how to put it into eloquent words but basically u give me such good friendly vibes and i love seeing your posts and your tags and your personality and just know someone on here really appreciates you and would miss you if u left

@kkaeb-my-song one of the holy first baekhyun blogs i followed <3 from the beginning you struck me as a very sweet person so cutely in love with baekhyun and that hasn’t changed, ive only come to appreciate you even more. you’re a constant on here and being in this fandom wouldn’t be the same without you !!

@mochibaeks I LOVE YOU i know youre not as active lately jelly but I LOVE YOU youre like the sweetest cutest squishiest most adorable person ive seen on this site i just...love...everything you say and make!! im p sure i first followed u bc u did like the bias audio challenge a while ago...u sounded so friendly and adorable, ur voice is very fitting for you haha you are so warm i hope you stick around for a long time because i love you soooo much

@rosybbh ive been following u sophia for a while and we’re mutuals but we havent talked a lot and im still honestly intimidated by you lol idk how u feel about this view but i see you as a very strong person, just the way u talk seems confident in some way to me, whether u feel like that or not. i dont really have the right words, but i admire that. i LOVE everything u say about bbh...all ur posts for bbh n about u n bbh...damn u always got me daydreaming about him too :( except ok there was this one pic of chanyeol and u said smth like ‘imagine him manspreading’ and id like u to know that that actually ruined my life and i havent forgotten it so thanks. for u especially i hope u have a very bright and healing year

@r-velvets vivian i know u have been gone recently but still lurk, and u have one of my fave blogs content wise and gifs and personality. u r still like THAT way too cool mutual i get so excited to see...especially bc you’re also so kind and during that really hard night after the news of Jonghyun, idk how or why but just those few words u said made me feel a lot better. i miss you online but i hope youre doing well in your real life and finding happiness

@sefuns i dont have a lot to say bc im really shy but u were the FIRST exo blog i ever followed and you have given nothing but great content since i found you two years ago, and when u followed me more recently i could not believe the notification aglksjgljk i have no idea how u found me but knowing we’re mutuals made me very happy and gave me a little blush and i just wanted to let u know that

@thundaelights fey, i dont think this will mean much to you coming from a stranger, but after following you for two years, i feel like i know you some, and i want to say that i hope this year you see many beautiful sights, and your heart feels light, and you are surrounded by things that give happiness. i hope something happens soon that makes the whole world look different, look brighter. its funny how life can change so fast and without warning. i wish you not just strength but also a safe place to fall apart and hope to put yourself back together. may you find countless reasons to smile

@wangeun we talked a lot for a while and then i just kind of disappeared i think as i often do rip but i still love following you and i just want to say real quick that i see you and i notice you and i would miss you if you left and i hope youre finding a lot of success in your life

to new mutuals @cuddlyjd @okaybaekhyun @baekhyuns i still get so shy and happy when anyone follows me back but thank you !! you are all three cute and adorable and funny n kenzie i hadnt followed a great jongdae stan in a while since the old dae-biased blogs i followed became inactive thank u for loving jongdae so well alkgjs

@sebyun @winterbyuns @etherealbbh @progamerbyun @dearbyun @baeksee @byunvoyage @solobaek @queenbyun @baekhyy @baehkhun @ethereal-baek i love all of u bbh stans giving baekhyun the love and adoration he deserves n giving me the positive baekhyun content my heart needs. esp solobaek (kiki, right?) u have the cutest most wonderful tags i love reading them all and seeing so many heart emojis

BEST EDITS WINNER: @juliadorable​ RIGHT OKAY SO JULIA (julia) is one of these people I’ve always wanted to chat to bc she seems amazing but what I absolutely love about her edits & gifs is that she picks/ creates posts for some of the most underappreciated moments in the show!!!

I’ll get back to this later

BEST FICS (oh my god what a category I legit could NOT pick someone lol this was painful bc u guys write the best shit)  WINNER: @elsaclack​ this feels a little obvious/predictable of me bc I’ve rambled about em’s stuff before but Dear Fucking God can this woman write. her fics and the way they had me laughing/crying/glued to my phone are the reason I  RUNNERS UP: @peraltiagoisland​ MICHELLE aka the love of my life KNOWS HOW TO KILL ME NO MATTER THE TIME NOR PLACE dear god I recommend so hard,,,, jump in and give the drama club au a spin trust me u won’t regret it  @jakelovesamy​ oh my god okay so let me tell u. let me TELL U i did not realise that this gorgeous girl was on AO3 but then I clicked over from her blog and it all came flooding back once I recognised her handle!!! I recommend u go and read ‘and all my world is losing light’ bc it’s gorgeous @oceanvirus​ again I didn’t mean to have three runners up but I had to bc I’m just..... a piece of shit lol BUT ANYWAY please please go and read Bella’s stuff I love it so much

[makabekazuki]

01.) nicknames: avi is definitely the most used one lmao. some others are/were sein (pls use this sometimes, i'll love u), deven, davu (tho nobody is allowed to use the last one ever), aaaand some more variations of my given name

02.) star sign: aries

03.) height: 158cm / ~5'2", i haven't grown in almost a decade and i will forever to sad that i'm below 160cm. at least heels exist

04.) time right now: 6:22am Haha oops

05.) favorite music artist(s): lmao i'm the worst person you could possibly ask this bc i don't listen to music much (basically only while commuting) and when i do, it's anime ops/eds and character songs. and i don't really care who sings those. ... i am fond of angela tho? let's go with that

06.) song stuck in head: 「 存在と無 」 by soushi and kazuki (fafner) bc i mentioned the song in the previous post

07.) last movie watched: both my memory and my attention span are Not So Good so it will remain a mystery to us all

08.) last tv show watched: p sure it was some of the digimon 02 christmas episodes some days ago. i think the last one was the one w/ imperialdramon's first appearance?

09. what are you wearing right now: a mismatched pyjama, a cardigan thing, warm socks. it's winter and i am always cold

10.) when did you create your blog: july 2010, apparently. i was 18, i'm crying, that's a terrifying thought

11.) what kind of stuff do you post: fandom stuff of all kinds, space, and #funny and #relatable text posts mostly

12.) do you have any other blogs: yeah

13.) do you get asks regularly: nope. i don't mind tho

14.) why did you choose your url: i was makabekazuki before and i wanted something less... character-y. so i looked at a bunch of space terms, found nothing, looked at minerals, and... ended up with calaverite which has a nice name and is one of the few gold minerals so that's cool. and then i had to use the german spelling bc the english one didn't work fsr?? something like that

15.) gender: what would i need that for (i'm agender lmao)

16.) hogwarts house: hufflepuff probably, Maybe ravenclaw? probably puff tho

17.) pokémon team: i'm that loser who still hasn't downloaded pkmngo so, uh. core series. i basically always use the cute ones bc i'm the laziest trainer in the world and if i Have to grind, i'd rather see some cute pkmn lmao. my moon rn is primarina, ribombee, (cheer) oricorio, salazzle, and mimikyu. all female bc Why Not. i forgot what i wanted my 6th pkmn to be so. we'll see.

18.) favorite color: green! i also really like mint, turquoise, and blues.

19.) average number of sleep: well. the mathmatical average is probably 6-7h. but what this really means is "2-4h when i need to get up early" and "10-14h when i don't" so, uh. yeah. (i do sometimes get 5-7h a night but that is not a common occurance, my sleep schedule is The Worst)

20.) lucky number: i'm gonna go w/ favorite instead and that's 3! i like 37 and 39 too.

21.) favorite characters: i Just answered a meme like that so, i'll just list some more? in no real order.

candidate for goddess - ernest cuore (the first character death that i realized as such. smol avi was very, very sad when its fav character suddenly sacrificed himself. (so naturally, "would die (or does actually die) for ppl they love" became one of my fav character types))

hourou musuko - nitorin (my darling canon trans girl child, please never talk to be abt this show's op and ed bc i'll start crying within 2 seconds)

boueibu - enatsukin (what do you mean, that's 3 characters. i love them all and my fav changes every 5 seconds)

bungou stray dogs - atushi and akutagawa are both my beloved children who i adore very much. aaand i love dazai and ranpo too, faves are hard

kingdom hearts - sora, probably? i haven't played a game w/ him in 200yrs bc our ps2 is dead and most handheld games (w/ him) are. not so fun to replay lmao

ffxiv - haurchefant and aymeric, i love those elfs. also, minfilia is good and i will love and protect her from rude and hateful ppl

22.) how many blankets do you sleep with: one. i know this directly contradicts "i am always cold" but more than one blanket is Too Warm and also too heavy so i usually just take a heat pillow w/ me if i'm freezing lmao

23. dream job: lmao. if you'd asked me half a year ago, i would've confidently told you "special needs educator at an elementary school". but i failed to get into university studies relating to that so i had to look for sth different, just to have Something To Do. so i signed up for german studies major + english studies minor at a different university (some studies don't require grades here... it's complicated) bc hey, i wanted to teach english and german sooo that extra year wouldn't be completely wasted, right? except that i ended up falling in love w/ historical linguistics (thanks, intro to medievial english studies) so. now i'm torn bc what i'm currently studying is Really fun and interesting to me but idek what jobs i could get w/ a BA in that. education would practically guarantee me a job and i'd probably enjoy it but. yeah. tl;dr i do not know fhjdsfk

24. following: less than 50 blogs. mostly friends and mutuals, some other nice-seeming fandom ppl, (fandom) artists, space blogs. i almost always backread so following lots of ppl would make backreading really difficult but Not knowing what everyone has been up to makes me really anxious, so. a small-ish group of ppl that generally doesn't spampost is best lmao

once again, feel tagged but nor pressured to do this if we're mutuals? or steal this, it's all ok

[still-we-rise]

I was tagged by lovely @p1tstop thank you bestie! 💖💖💖

1. why did you choose your url?

'Cause I'm Bono-centered blog and a Mercedes fangirl <3 Nothing too deep about it, but I like it. Never forgetti my first url tho, "simpcedes-amg" always in my heart.

2. any side blogs?

Nope, this is the one and only. So yeah, ppl who followed me for F1 content are often harassed with my other hyperfixations from time to time especially games. It's kinda messy but aren't we all?

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

On this particular blog? Since November 2020, but I was lurking on tumblr before for quite some time. For a while I forgot about it's existence at all, and one day I discovered f1blr is a thing. And it was a spiral down from that very moment.

4. do you have a queue tag?

WHAT IS A QUEUE? DON'T KNOW HER I just log in, reblog stuff at once, log off, and the cycle continues. I always admired people who kinda sort their posts or have a specific tag for differend kinds of stuff, like guys, where tf do you take the energy from?

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

Too few people were simping for Bono so I decided I gotta change it. And now he has an army of simps, no need to thank me, Peter. and when I started I thought I'm just gonna make my silly posts and get 10 notes each, never expected to have a good amount of followers and amazing friends here!

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

Because Bono hot.

7. why did you choose your header?

Because Bono hot.

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

F1 x Zitti e Buoni (go to horny jail y'all) F1 guys as headers F1 & John Mulaney F1 as vines pt 2 back then i wrote i made this to escape the drama but no goddamn clue what drama it was F1 drivers as Top Gear moments honorable mention to my most liked Bono posts 1 2 3 4

9. how many mutuals do you have?

AND HOW DO I CHECK IT

Idk but quite many, I think? I haven't talked to most of them really, and I'M EXTREMELY SORRY FOR BEING A SHY AWKWARD BITCH who turns into a demon once I'm comfortable with a person but shhh I wish I talked with y'all much more often, but yeah, idk what do I do, poke you with a stick?

10. how many followers do you have?

603 and I love every single one of them!

11. how many people do you follow?

359 my dash is a mess and i love it

12. have you ever made a shit post?

OH BOY OOOOOOH BOY

13. how often do you use tumblr a day?

14. did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog?

Nah. Again, how people find the energy to do that?

And if I somehow have a beef, trust me, it's one-sided because I'm definitely too old for this shit

15. how do you feel about the ‘you need to reblog’ posts?

They're really needed! Spreading content is literally the only thing keeping this site alive and motivating creators to create more stuff <3 Gif creators, edit makers, fanfic writers, shitposters, they all get too little credit for their work and literally holding this site on their arms. Giving you all a platonic kiss because you deserve it besties 💘💘

16. do you like tag games?

I really do! Sometimes I respond to them weeks after but that's because I'm a dumb asshole and sometimes i just don't see I was tagged, but I really appreciate every single tag! and I'm also severely depressed and sometimes I don't have the energy to do them, and when I finally do, it's a bit awkward to do it a month later ya know But yeah, I really love them!

17. do you like ask games?

Absolutely! <3

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

Lots of them definitely are! It was so positively surprising when I saw they followed me <3

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

yes i do but please don't tell her although i told her many times

Also the way all of you are blogging is very sexy mwah <3

20. tags!

@georgerus63 @theizzyryder @bahrain-lights @neonastronaut @sebeestian @sirroscoehamilton ofc feel free to ignore my stupid ass and sorry if you've already been tagged! ❤
