Rant--"Cool."

Imagine this--Hours after hours; Days after days have passed by since you first commenced the idea of your fine piece of artwork; and finally the day you've been waiting for arrives. Your pain-staking toil has finally come to a conclusion. You're purely mesmerized of what your creativity has produced this time--It's stunning, close to perfection by your standards. It's time to share your work with the rest of the world.
Upon your uploading, you anticipate the arrival of brand-new messages being shipped to your inbox--Finally knowing that others enjoy your work just as much as you do.
There it is--The first comment. You heart nearly lurches out of your chest in excitement to witness what their judgement might be. Your eyes quickly scroll over the words they've inscribed to you; To your surprise, your excitement drowns in utter disappointment, then expires completely at first sight.
"Cool."
I've experienced those who will compliment my art to no extents, argue with me about my art or something related to what I've drawn, and those who will just straight-out bash my art. But never have I received a comment more rude and obnoxious than the plain and simple, "Cool."
I swear, some people just comment just for the sake of saying that they've commented.
Surprisingly enough, it's actually disrespectful to the artist. Telling them that the drawing is 'cool' doesn't tell them what you liked about the piece, what you downright hated about the piece, or where and how you could improve. If you really have nothing better to say than the repetitive message, "cool," then why comment at all in the first place?
Welp, End of Rant. :3

Blog Update:Designs and Polls ^^



Background:
Guys, I'm really sorry that I changed the background all-of-a-sudden, especially if you were actually fond of its' appearance. I, on the other hand, couldn't even bear to look at the hideous piece of garbage--Anymore! Not only was it fairly old and unimproved--It had no similar elements to the Main Color-Scheme of the blog--Blue and White. It was green, for crying out loud! Bright, neon green, to be exact. No way I was going to allow that to blind you;not any longer. ^^
Burn it with fire; The Fire of Happiness! :'D
Don't even ask. Just don't XD
I couldn't just erase the background all together; a bright white background screen is even worse than the neon-green piece of junk! XD
So, I created another drawing--Of Sky--That is far more "mellow," and fits the Color-Scheme much better. :D

Woo,New Background! :'D
"Broken Glass," Three Days Grace. ^^
Polls:
I've added three new Questions to the sidebar,each containing new humorous answers to choose from! :D So, go ahead--Why don't you cast your vote? :)
That's about all for now guys!

Blog to be Shutdown and Deleted.

Here you have it, the tragic truth. I can't keep up with the relentless demand to update and modify the blog, which means that there is only one possibility left. On April 15th, the blog will be halted as we all know it,and all of the posts, art, and memories created over these past few years will be wiped away for good. D:
I do not wish to do this, but I assure you all that the shutdown will be for the best. I am very overwhelmed at the moment, and this is just adding to my pile of work. Maybe someday in the distant future, I will bring this blog back in function. But for now, this is goodbye.
I could only hope to speak to you amazing readers again in the upcoming future. :')
Oh,also, before I forget, I've got something else I need to tell you all before the end.




























Happy April Fools Day! :D
You didn't really think I'd delete such a wonderful place with such wonderful readers, did you? :D
You guys are great-Whether it's ranting or speaking in general,this blog--and all of you amazing people--are there to hear me out. Why would I just throw that all away? :'D
Why I picked the 15th for the "ultimate shutdown."-
--April 15th is not ordinanry day--Snake's birthday is here.
--My friend Emlo's birthday is 10 days following this date. So she can't chew my head off, I made it 10 days before. >:3
--When DoInk.com was shutdown, it happened on the 15th of April.We also found the news on September 1st, as you did April 1st.
Just to make things clear now--I will NOT be deleting the blog!
If you've got anymore questions, or comments on this years prank, please tell me below! :D

Art Dump? :D

Seems we've got a problem here.
I stated that I'd start posting again soon enough, even on a daily basis if I had enough time to do so.
Annnd,it seems like that kinda washed down the drain.
Huh. XD
This abscence calls for an Art Dump now, doesn't it? :'D
I think so. >:3
Not here,of course, but in my next post.
I will sort each piece into one of five categories:Traditional Animals(Self explanatory, Traditional-style drawings of animals,) Traditional People(*Le Gasp*--People!? Pretty self explanatory, Traditional-style drawings of people,) Digital Animals(Same as Traditional Animals, except in the style of Digital,) Digital People(Are you sure you're Jersey!? Same as Traditional People, except in the style of Digital,) Miscellaneous(Anything from Abstract Art I've made along the way, to Fan-art and logos I've come up with. This will also include any WIPs. ^^)
This is going to give me nightmares. D:>
Jersey away! :enterlahere:

-Blog Post Confiscated-CISPA Awaits

I'm not sure how many of you have heard,but it seems as if yet another Internet Bill has been brought up to Congress again,and this time,it's called CISPA.
Now,what is CISPA,exactly? It stands for the "Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act."
To say it simply-It's SOPA in disguise.
This will allow the goverment to view your computer activity. This includes logging on to your private accounts,people! Now,you're probably thinking--Well,easy,right? If it's anything like SOPA,we'll teach it a lesson;it won't pass.
Well,it is like SOPA,except for one minor detail...
Google,Facebook,Miscrosoft,and other internet giants support CISPA.
Guys,we need to do something,or else the internet is going. All I ask of you is one thing--On April 23rd,anyone who owns a Google or Facebook account--Don't log on for that entire day,or even temporarily deactivate. Go back into the SOPA routine,blackout your avatar icons,and spread the word. The internet depends on it.
Stop CISPA--Free and Open!
*Blog Post Confiscated.*
This post has been seized under CISPA and awaits a court order.

Looks like it's time to "Blackout" Again. :/

Bloop.

After many pointless hours on an otherwise straightforward answer,I've made a decision about the fate of this blog.And I've decided,that I will continue posting,and start to bring the blog back.
I can't just leave you guys all in the dark like that-I love posting on here. D:
Plus,without this blog,I'll never get my opinions out. Who else am I supposed to rant to? XD
You guys need to catch up though,and big time. But no fears-Jersey is here! And I'll give you a few unneeded updates.

1.Adam's come out with new music-
No,you're not dreaming,I don't need to poke you;it's true. Adam has a few new songs out now,and they sound truly amazing. He sounds happier than he ever did,which makes me happy as well. So,I will continue following Adam on his journey,and continue listening to his music. Adam,you'll always have at least one fan! :'D

2.I've improved at drawing-
Here's a huge update-I've improved quite a bit at drawing. I don't see any drastic changes,but enough to make note of. My craftmanship has gotten alot better,and my drawings are coming out neater than they previously were. I haven't had artists' block in quite awhile as well,which is an artists' dream come true! :'D

3.Redesigning-
This blog's design is so old an outdated! I plan on hopefully changing the appearance up a bit,to a simpler design. I also plan on changing the blog's name once more,except this time to "Jersey's Rants," or something along those lines. But as always,the URL will stay the same.

4.Back to Animation-
I know I've been animating on and off for awhile,but now I'm serious. I've been animating more seriously for the past few months,and I even created a MEP that you can sign up for on my YouTube channel. I've started making up AMVs once again,and took part in a few Memes. :D Hopefully I'll have some brand new videos to show you soon! :D

5.Inside Jokes...-
I really need to stop this,it's becoming ridiculous...
...Nah. XD
