Answers !Firstly , I made a whole video to all your questions but it didn't work when I tried to upload it which really sucks ): I decided to make it into a journal anyway .. so here we go ! A lot of you asked the same questions , but I answered them all (:
*Simply-Smiley How did you get started in photography ?
I actually needed to learn how to draw something a few years ago and I stumbled across dA and all the drawing section . I thought it was really amazing and I checked out a lot of peoples work . I then saw a lot of people doing photography and it really amazed me that people were that good . I set up an account ages after and wanted to try out my own photography and it's progressed till now , so thanks dA haha !
~AndyMuffinm What camera and editing software do you use?
My camera: Samsung ST95 , here is what it looks like --> http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?hl=en

Photography Troubleshooting: Which Camera Phone?
I know that the answer many will give is "none" but in this modern era we do need to have a good backup camera or even a good initial camera in our phones to record things day to day. But there's a lot to choose from as the market gets more competitive. Camera phones are always changing and improving (or getting worse!). If you're main camera is going to be your phone, it's best to put some time and research into making sure you get what you need for the level of photography that you carry out. So here are the top contenders this year, in terms of camera phones.
Nokia Lumia 920
This is one of the newest camera phones - the latest windows 8 handset. It has something called 'Pureview Technology' which means that if an object or person comes into view in the picture at the last minute, you can erase it completely using PureView.
It also has an 8.7 megapixel camera. Generally with d-slr's the megapixels don't differ all that much between makes and mode

Why am I so lazy?
I am a majorly lazy/unmotivated person and unhappy about it. So I did a Google search: Why am I so lazy? There is a dozen of pages... it seems to be a global problem.
Some people have depressions, thus are lazy. Some have no goals, don't know what they want. Some have it as a rebellion against being pushed too much in childhood.
Some suggestions (no particular order):
1) Break tasks into the simplest steps, like 5 min tasks, e.g. making a bed. And reward yourself a lot every time.
2) Get people involved - someone who will kick your butt into doing the stuff, hold you accountable.
3) Listen to someone really passionate about something and do it with them.
4) Make yourself do nothing, only lay and even think of nothing, then maybe an urge to do something comes (I do that sometimes, I usually fall asleep though, unless I am already woken after some sleep and just think about sleeping more, then some ceative urges come).
5) Have a healthy diet, enough sleep, regular sleep, do exercise,

Today my inbox exploded...It did, it actually did and it freaked me out. I tell you.
It couldn't have been more than half an hour really. I had lunch and when I came back to my computer and started deviantart I had received 122 messages.
Now I love receiving messages, don't let there be any doubt about that. Getting messages is great, and it makes you feel like your art skills have another purpose besides entertaining yourself and fighting boredom.

But I usually never get more than 15. Hell, if I get 10 messages I consider it a good day. So obviously, 122 is more than I've ever had. I first thought that deviantart switched the feedback message icon with that other tiny Mona Lisa icon to trick me or something.
But they were actual messages. 122 in half an hour. So I thought I was hacked, (obviously (yes I know)). I thought someone had accused me of art thievery or something and now all deviants had come to shout at me.
So I abandoned my computer (I literally Abandoned it) (!!!!) And made physics ho

100 Theme Challenge List [Edit]Lately I've been diagnosed with a severe case of the art block. A deadly disease that strikes and saps away the creativity of the artist. So I came up with a list of medications and remedies that will, hopefully, subdue this disease. Be forewarned that this is not a cure, for this disease is uncurable to those who have contracted it before and may actually cause the disease to worsen. The list is provided below for viewing. Symptoms include: overthinking, headaches, soreness of the hand, fingers, and/or wrist, and troubles sleeping. Do not take this seriously. Please contact me if the medications below is right for you.
.............:iconmonkeylaughplz:
Okay I had too much fun with that. So yeah I made a list. You are welcome to do them with me. There are others here on DA but they don't satisfy me! Many waste space using antonyms. Or do the obvious 4 seasons, 4 elements, 7 deadly sins, 7 virtues. Already that's a whopping 22 spaces to waste! :iconcannotevenplz: So I made one trying to

1001 Watcher / Gift for you all!Be greeted all Dragonfanatics, Watchers & Friends!
Yeah! One of my biggest wishes came true, I've got 1000 Watchers & more - 1001!!
Thank you all very much! I'm glad you like my artworks, I love to draw for you all!
And I had a great idea!
I wanted to make something for you all.
I thought about to make a Points Give away... but that wouldn't be a gift for all.
So I've got another idea.
I created free Icons for you!
If you like them, you may use them, you should just follow the terms of use.
Here they are:

You can find in the description other icons too I made:

Yeah, with a black & white dragon!
It took me a lot of time to create all the different colours, but I hope you like them!
Oh, I told you that one of my biggest wishes came true, do you want to know my second wish?
I wish a Daily Deviation Maybe, one day it will come true too x)
But it's not important, I'm g

DA notifications troublesHey guys! I already made a poll for this, but I guess I should also write a journal since maybe more of you could see this.
I still don't know if it was a temporary issue, but there are many people who doesn't get any notifications about new drawings from DA.
If you're one of those people, =ARCatSK helped REALLY a lot.
'Everyone who didn't get the notifications should go to watching settings, turn off the drawing nnotifications and the turn them on again, it usually solves the problem.'
If any of you don't know how to do it, =ARCatSK also made this:
http://sta.sh/01ucuqh6mnye
Thank you for the help, and I really hope it will work

DA is just being stupid I guess, heh.

Very nice video, interesting to see you work and your techniques!
But it's going a bit too fast to see, whichs inks you use - is it only brush and Ecoline? And at last a white gelpen?

Amazing talent!
