I don't friends-lock entries, except in very very few unusual circumstances. And I allow anonymous comments, unless people abuse the privilege. I believe in free speech, but this is my little bit of internet space, so if you cross the line, I have no problem deleting comments. I'm more likely to point and laugh though.

My rules:
1. No one will ever be identified by their real names. No matter how mad I am.
2. I will never give what town I live in or used to live in. Nor will I ever divulge anyone else's exact location.
3. You are free to guess, but not here. Email or PM me and I may tell you if you're right or wrong. Maybe.
4. I may lie. Hey, it's the internet.

I take suggestions on what to write and I love feedback.

I've taken off the adult warning, cuz I was tired of seeing it, but Silvercat's Paradise does contain adult concepts including: sex, swearing, slash, and intellectual musings.

Fiddling with icons

Posted on 2009.11.28 at 23:28
You may have noticed I've gone icon crazy. I've also decided that it's time for a change and replaced a bunch of mine. I have one more slot open, and two icons that are very similar (Bruce Wayne and Fedora Man). What essential emotion am I missing?

(Happy happy hellhound has be replaced with happy Deathman. Deathman is awesome and I should post his story.)

(I should also post the story with Gaggy the dwarf. It is surprisingly awesome and innuendo-free.)

(I'm tempted to use the spider with the cowboy hat. Just because.)

(And please, please, go back to the last two entries and comment and gank icons. Yes, you probably haven't read any of those comics. That's okay. The art is pretty. Or amusing. Or something.)

2000ad icons from #11-25, including Dan Dare, Invasion, Shako, Judge Dredd, Tharg the Mighty, MACH 1, Harlem Heroes, and Flesh. Even if you aren't a fan, check them out because the artwork is fantastic.

Total Icon Count: 93


Teasers:


TEASER! Icon 003 TEASER! Icon 059 TEASER! Icon 080 TEASER! Icon 091 TEASER! Icon 092


Warning to Arachnophobes, there are giant tarantulas depicted below )

Comics from Golden and Silver Age Batman comics, including fixes for the last batch (a bunch were rectangular and screwy. My apologies for being a dumbkompf). From Batman 1, 150-151, 153, 159-160, 171, 173, 176, 180-181, 184, and 186.

Total Icon Count: 28


Teasers:


TEASER! Icon 010 TEASER! Icon 012 TEASER! Icon 013 TEASER! Icon 014 TEASER! Icon 020


Contains men in fedoras )


I'd prefer if you give credit and comment. Feel free to use these for whatever you want, including altering how you wish. I also take requests for captions, animations, etc.

Check out my icon tag for more.

NOTE: Apologies for screwing up a bunch of them. They have been fixed and will be posted in a few minutes in the next entry.

I've been reading through my scans of 2000ad and Batman and well, icons ensued.

2000ad icons, including Dan Dare, Harlem Heroes, Judge Dredd, Flesh, Invasion!, Mach 1, and Tharg the Mighty.

Total Icon Count: 58

Teasers:

TEASER! Icon 009 TEASER! Icon 016 TEASER! Icon 034 TEASER! Icon 036 TEASER! Icon 055

Icons Here! )

Batman Golden and Silver Age comics (Batman #1, #4, #8, #11-12 #150-151, #153, #155, #159-160, #162-163, #165, #171, #173-174, #176-181, #183, and one from Detective Comics #45. Yes, there are a LOT of icons.)

Total Icon Count: 106

Teasers:

TEASER! Icon 056 TEASER! Icon 057 TEASER! Icon 064 TEASER! Icon 066 TEASER! Icon 092

Icons Here! )

I'd prefer if you'd give credit (this is Silvercat17), but you can use them for whatever you want, alter however you want, etc. I also take suggestions for improvements, including captions.

And now, some random, non-icon pictures. Again, feel free to use these however you want.

Online games

Gamehouse.com - home of a lot of the games on Yahoo
Popcap.com - and the other one

http://cableshaft.deviantart.com/art/Proximity-9262914 - Proximity, an addicting tile strategy game

Kongregate.com - like a youtube for flash games. Has good stuff, has utter crap, has a lot of mediocre stuff. Personally favorite are armorgames, urbansquall, and Dolphin Olympics

So, you're getting a real post. This is from a story I'm working on. Bits are good, other bits are utter crap, and most of it is rather mediocre. You'll be getting mostly good bits.

I *want* to say that I'll try to post everyday this month, but I don't think I can manage, so I won't. Sorry, it may be another several months before I post again. Not that it matters, I suppose.

New Silver's Kids - for three days!

Posted on 2009.06.29 at 11:08
Tags:
I realize I totally flaked and I'm attempting to make it up. There'll be a new comic for the next three days, and I'm going to try to get the other seven that I missed made up. I have a few more Up at Silvercat's comics ready and some more scripts, but I'm wondering if I should start up Thunderkitties which has a bunch of comics done, more inked, and a bunch of scripts. So, I'm asking my audience, none of which will probably read this or care.

Poll #1422901
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 0

Should I start up Thunderkitties or continue with Up at Silvercat's a bit longer?

Isn't Technology Supposed to Make Life Easier?

Comment away, y'all.

There's some things I need to do to the site, which I'm going to list here as a reminder to myself: fix the bottom of the front page, add a counter so I can have good stats, update thumbnail image for UAS, remove random 'random stuff!' text from about page, update the archive, make cast pics for the rest of the UAS characters, make some link banners for Silver's Kids in general and UAS in specific, make 'comic thumbnail' for Drunkduck (80x100pixels).

Up at Silvercat's #4

I've done this, but never gotten past the first step.

At this point I just have to finish my portfolio (which unfortunately involves redoing some stuff. *sigh*), study for my one final, and pack. Which is going to be an adventure considering the state of my room.

I realize I haven't posted in quite a while, or at least haven't posted anything but links. I have two posts waiting - one is a bunch of Transmetropolitan scans and the other is about me developing my new logo - but I don't have the energy to upload the pics, fix the formatting, and post it, so they're not going up right now.

School is nearly done. I nearly have a portfolio site. I haven't updated Silver's Kids in two weeks and I feel bad about it.

Mostly I'm tired and I want to semester to be done. I'm not looking forward to cleaning and packing to move out of the dorm. This sounds whinier that I feel - I really just feel tired. Anyway, if you want to make me happy, go leave a comment. =^_^=

Poser Resources

Posted on 2009.04.17 at 15:12

Poser is a 3D program where you can, basically, you get to play with paper dolls. Except they're 3D, fully articulated, you can adjust lighting and scenery, and animate them. So it's nothing like paper dolls at all.

This is mostly free stuff.

I'll fix up the links later.

http://www.3dcommune.com/
http://www.animotions.com/index.php
http://www.daz3d.com/ - Daz3D is a free equivalent of Poser. It can't do as much, but it's still fun.

I'm still alive, but busy.

I've posted my profile up on Soulgeek again and hailed a few guys. If I don't get responses I'll fiddle with OKCupid and whatever other free dating sites I can find.

I've applied for media internships for this summer. They're either in Hollywood or San Francisco and I've said I'll go to either.

I'm on Facebook, PM me if you want to friend me.

At the moment, I'm adding all my bookmarks to here, so forgive me if I spam your friends page.
