How to Make Money on NFT: the Easiest Way

After a long period of stagnation, the NFT market is finally moving.

Musicbusinessworldwide.com has released an article featuring Alexander Fred-Yol, founder of Master Exchange. According to him, “The reaction to the launch of the platform is overwhelming. The demand is so great that offers to place NFTs increased many times in just a few days. And this cannot but please fans of digital music.”

Previously, Lado Okhotnikov, CEO of Meta Force, has already mentioned that the NFT market has begun to revive. However, he also noticed an increased number of scammers,

“Fraud is connected with several factors. Firstly, the increase in volumes makes potential buyers pay attention to NFTs. For an unprepared person, this, of course, immediately causes a feeling of “lost profit” (FOMO) which stimulates to make an impulsive purchase. Secondly, the allegedly increased demand forces you to sell your own assets to fraudsters at a lower price.”

The presence of major investors such as Claes-Henrik Julander, Vectr Fintech and Rob Small suggests that the Master Exchange platform will allow fans to continue investing in the compositions of their favorite songwriters.

Vladimir Okhotnikov has already given advice on how to buy or sell NFTs safely. Among other things he insisted on the use of reliable trading platforms where NFTs could not be put up for sale without verification.

I've made a google doc collection of 150 useful design and art resources! Whether youre just starting commissions or want to make your workflow more streamlined, I recommend checking it out

The full list is below the read more, but I suggest looking at the google doc as well sincce it will be updated more often. 

This list was created by @MagicalMeily

I encourage you to share this list with other designers, artists, or even students via this tumblr post, the google doc, or my tweet. Links marked as ‘Free/Paid’ usually means the free version has a lot of features anyway and the paid just has some extra templates or storage space. *Disclaimer - I haven’t used all of these services myself, so please let me know if anything dodgy slipped through the cracks, or if you have any others I should add.

I do not support NFTs or AI Art generators, so hopefully you won’t find any listed. Always double check commercial usage rights

While it’s not yet clear what Adobe will do with Figma, and while the Figma CEO has claimed that Figma will operate autonomously, here’s a free alternative just in case.

hi! sorry to bother but i was wondering if you know some resources at how can i learn to make themes? im already learning html/css but im finding hard to find good resources to learn how to make themes :( btw: love your work!

Hello! Thank you for the compliment and your interest in making themes.

Since you’re already learning HTML and CSS, I don’t think I need to tell you about w3schools or stackoverflow – you probably came across them yourself already. :)

The best way to understand tumblr themes is to look at the official guide for creating custom themes. There, all of the (necessary) variables are listed and their purpose is described as well.

Base codes can be very helpful to see how these elements look when they are put together, plus the HTML works already so you can focus on manipulating elements with CSS.

@buildthemes is an entire blog dedicated to teaching people how to code themes. You have to view the blog in its own tab to access the different chapters.

@theme-hunter also has a neat list of tutorials you can use for creating amazing themes.

I hope these resources are helpful!

How to install the Vectr graphics editor on Linux

[csolarstorm]

My previous attempt to carve tabby cat markings into the model was not going well. The shape of the stripes were just warping the shape of the model. But what I discovered while studying fur patterns is that they pretty much conform to recognizable parts of the face, like the overall nose (which I realized is more than just the pink boop area, it's part of the ridge just like us) and the cheeks.

Aaand with that I realized that I didn't really have those facial features right anyway. So I redid the nose, and I'm currently trying to redo the cheeks while also trying to keep them simple. Plus I made the jaw much smaller, because the cheeks basically sit on a teeny jaw. It will probably get even smaller.

And the neon colors are meant to highlight each part of the face as I work. As soon as they're "done" I'll draw the flat textures in Vectr or whatever and then apply them to each part of the face.

The blue scribbles are my annotations for how I intend to change the mesh, and my observations from studying Shego's face. It turns out cats can get really uncomfortable when you stare at them for too long.
