the hostilities have begun...

  A war has been declared... Australia fired the first shot... Belgium's honor is at stake...  I'm already gathering weapons and amunitions...

Yep, that booty was sent by Sue from Divajools (a very very talented woman)... she said she'd send me some kangaroo bone and a "few" things...  some of those things are going to end up on my monster... so my neck is going to suffer... so I say VENGEANCE!  ;)

THANK YOU Sue... those things are just awesome :)))

You’re not doing the Earth any good, ya know…

No, you aren't...

 

Do you know that it requires a lot of energy to keep photos online? A lot of it since there are gazillions of gazillions of photos online… I do know this… and I don’t feel good about it when I think of it… I have two blogs, a flickr account and a FB account… and oh, yes a pinterest account … but I have no boards… I joined because I was curious and slightly annoyed to see my stuff there…

I am more than annoyed now… I see a lot of traffic on my blog… a lot more than before… and most of the traffic comes from pinterest… I see some people spending hours on my blog, downloading photos from my blog… do they leave any comment to say they paid you a visit??? No… they don’t … the door was open and they grabbed what they thought they might like or what they thought their followers might like…  I do not want to lock the door… my blog is there for sharing my art and in this case, my rants… it’s a place where I met a lot of interesting people… and some very dear to my heart…  so I don’t want to lock the door and if friends want to put my stuff on their boards… that’s fine.. they are friends… but you, people that I do not know…I don’t really feel comfortable about it…  would it be too much to ask you to leave a comment first like “hey I really like this stuff, are you okay if I pin it on my board and here is the link to it” … now that would be nice… you know…  but it takes time… people have no time … for that… it’s a race… who will be the first to have like a million photos pinned on their boards… what a milestone! And it also makes me think of those Japanese tourists… the ones who book a 5 days tour of Europe… and all the time they take photos… they see nothing… but they got photos to prove they were there… 

So, yes, you were on my blog… there are pictures on your boards to prove it…  you sometimes even pin the same one two or three times… hard to remember you’ve already pinned it when you have thousands of photos pinned all over your boards…

edit : I have no problem sharing what I do, it's a blog, it's public... my problem is sharing without my knowing...that bothers me...

 



One of the boards I saw my stuff on was called « things to do if I have time » …

Well if you were not on pinterest or FB or twitter, here are a few things you could do :

1.       Create something (no, not a board… a real thing)

2.       Write an e-mail to a friend

3.       Call a friend

4.       Go for a drink with a friend

5.       Work out

6.       Watch a documentary

7.       Walk the dog (if you have one)

8.       Feed the cat (if you have one)

9.       Write a post (if you have a blog)

10.   Write a comment on someone’s blog

11.   Read a book

12.   Bake something

13.   Take a walk

14.   Take a nap

15.   Draw something

16.   Wash the dishes

17.    Clean the house

18.   De-clutter your closet

19.   De-clutter the computer

20.   Go see an exhibition

21.   Stop reading this silly list and do something that doesn’t involve a computer! ;)
