Hello everyone! :wave:

I am happy to announce that I have re-opened dAGrants :hooray:

Right now I am collecting funds for the account so that I can start giving grants without going bankrupt because it only has 500 points, as soon as the total reaches 2000 I will continue giving grants. So hold your applications!

For more info -> dagrants.deviantart.com/journa…

If you would like to donate please do so on dAGrants account. Every donation will be featured in a point feature on that account.
Every donation above 10 :points: - 2 piece feature.
Every donation above 200 :points: - 3 piece feature.
Every donation above 400 :points: - 4 piece feature.
Every donation above 500 :points: - 6 piece feature.
Every donation above 1000 :points: - 8 piece feature.
And so on.

Also any spreading of this news or a favorite would be greatly appreciated, the faster people find out it's been started again, the faster the grants can move around.

Thanks everyone!

This contest is now closed. Thanks to the participants! :) 
StaffAppreciation is happy to announce the first deviantART Staff Appreciation Week-related contest of 2012! 
 The deviantART Staff Appreciation Week (dASAW) kicked off with a bang in its first year (2011) and the response was overwhelming. Our goal is to promote positive community relations between deviants. We do this by creating relationships between the staff and the community, and by showing the staff that we really do appreciate all of their hard work! :dalove: Anyone can participate in our events and contests!
This contest is a little different from normal because the dASAW hasn't begun yet! For this, anyone can enter, and this is the theme: submit your ideas for a great dA

Thank you! :)

Birthday Week!

3 min read



It's my birthday this week on the 25th! :la: No I'm not 9 =p, this is just a beautiful skin made by GinkgoWerkstatt so I used it!

Who wants to buy me a women's small Vert Zip Hoodie?  :giggle:. Just kidding! Although they are very nice :eyes:

I may just spend my birthday money on it though because it is too nice to pass up :shrug:

Anyway, I want to hear how all of you are doing; I haven't talked to many of you in awhile. Did you have a vacation recently? Go anywhere awesome? Did you get some amazing achievement? Want a free commission? Want an art trade? Learn how to cook something amazing?

I learned how to cook Panda cupcakes! And they actually look like pandas! If you want the recipe just ask ;). Does anyone know how to make pizza muffins? :paranoid:

Question for people who are good with computers


Well my USB port on my laptop stopped working, I've narrowed it down to the actual port and not any connectors/wires because I've tried to plug a mouse, a USB HUB Man, and my ipod into it and all of them are getting no power what-so-ever

  • I believe my laptop got overheated a little bit right before it stopped working
    • It usually "doesn't recognize the device" that I put it but it eventually works most of the time.


      I'm not sure if that is enough information to make a diagnosis but if you can help/need a bit more information just ask. Thanks so much!


      Notes for Groups I'm an admin of
      Also next week I have a vacation and will be gone like the 18th-24th, I will try to visit a couple times to take care of some notes, point features etc. But I won't have loads of time.

  Outlook 2 by AlterEgo1629 Would The Wind Know?When the breeze sweeps by and bristles your neck,
does your pulse pause and suddenly seize?
Do you remember my breath blowing past your ears?
That closet couldn't contain more memories.
Did you shove them away in the darkest, dirtiest corners?
Under your bed isn't where I'm supposed to be.
Did you leave them behind to ruin and rot?
These skeletons are fighting to be free.
The corpse of what we called love is long gone,
I hold the ashes to try and keep them warm.
Is it foolish to hope for a phoenix and flame?
Sometimes I still feel the butterflies swarm.
I dream they are the kind that never die,
that eggs were laid in your lungs before you went away.
I dream that if we ever see each other again,
they swell and hatch so you have sweeter words to say.
I never meant to make you hate me,
I guess my greatest mistake was gripping too tightly.
Some said the longing would slowly subside,
I wonder if your head does somersaults nightly.
Tumbling through times when a silent smile still mattered,

MaskI wear this mask every day.
This smiling, laughing mask.
So that the world doesn't know...
Doesn't know that I'm breaking apart inside.
Why can't you see?
You mean the world to me!
But you can't tell anyone!
Because I can't take off this mask I wear.
This mask, it holds me together.
All the little, intricate pieces that make up ME.
Can't you see that I need it?
I need it to keep reality at bay.
I need it to shield me from the horrors of the real world.
Can't you see? Can't you see that I need you?
I need you now. Need you to help me.
I need you to peel this mask away.
And to see, for once, the real me.

  Checkmate"Checkmate," Cheren commented airily.
  Touko scanned the board, her eyes sharply looking for some escape, some way out. But there was none; her white king was trapped, her queen positioned uselessly in black's jail, along with many a pawn and other loyal pieces that had fallen before the enemy in the line of fire. Nothing could save the pitiful king from the black queen - her wrath had dominated the board, commanding one soldier after another to advance. Cheren's cleverness had beaten Touko's, and her kingdom was captured as a result.
  She sighed. "You win. Again." With that she tipped over her king, and it landed with a clack upon the wooden board, signaling that Cheren was the winner. He sighed, too, brushing a lock of black hair out of his eyes.
  "You're too easy, Touko," he chided her. "You're better than Bianca, I have to say - she has the brains of a Pachirisu with an electric personality to match - but Touya's better. He's competitive and

  christmas by Amami-1 Put Me To BedLaughter everywhere
laughing at me,
The cutting edge
of that blade,
waiting to bleed
is all I need,
to make a pool,
THINK NOW IM COOL?!
Feel the ground,
Darkness all around,
my room a cold silence.
Parents come in all mean,
just to scream,
yet in the end not of anger,
but of sadness and disbelief,
Yelling "HELP! OH MY GOD! HELP!"
But no, no help
They put me to bed,
my last one ever
crying everywhere,
crying at me,
But why? When you were all laughing at me?

  The sky smiles too. by midnightdream2 Hidden by an eclipse                             Conceal me...
                             in the shadows of pain,
                     disguised in the light of exuberant pretence,
                          of false happiness and laughter.
                              Mask me...

Andrea slowly awoke with a startled attitude. She noticed she was in a large crib. "W-what the hell" said Andrea. "Ah i see you woke up already"  came a new females voice.  Andrea looked around quickly for the source and soon saw a woman standing over her. She stood about 5ft 7 with blue eyes and blue hair. She looked about only 17 years old but most obvious of all was her orangish cat tail and cat ears. Also she was wearing a typical anime like schoolgirl outfit. "W-who are you" asked Andrea nervously as she struggled to sit up right. "I am Neka Your carer" replied the young girl. "Hmmph i am not so damn little kid and i don't need to be taken care of" huffed Andrea before noticing she was wearing a wet nappy. "Not little huh? Why don't be silly. Of course you are little" said the woman. Sure enough Andrea now notice she was somehow reduced to a mere infant. "Bu-but how" she asked on the verge of hysterics. "Well you see my little bundle of joy , you are par
