Just realized how many digital artists get their work stolen from portfolio sites

Ugh, my watermark game is so bad it's basically an invitation.

TIL the comic shop in my town has a whole wall of fan art for trade

That "cool way for fans to share" sounds messy to me. Our local shop tried it and the board just became a wall of bad tracing and anime doodles. Cluttered up the whole front counter. Felt more like a daycare art project wall than a comic shop. They took it down after a month.

Am I the only one who spent 3 HOURS trying to organize a single short box by story arc?

My Dawn of X shelf was a total mess for a MONTH. I had to print out that reading order chart and keep checking it every five minutes. I finally gave up and just put all the X-Men books together by number, and the Marauders books together, and so on. Trying to mix them all up in one timeline broke my brain. I sort by character now, it's the only way I can find anything.

My old rounding hammer finally gave out after 15 years last Tuesday

Damn, that's a real bummer after 15 years of service lol. I had a cross pein do the same thing a while back, scary when the head just takes off. I've been pretty happy with my current one from Old World Anvils, it's held up to some serious abuse. The eye is super solid, no wobble at all after a couple years of beating on it.

Honestly just read that some AI image generators now use a 'negative prompt' weight system and it blew my mind

Ugh, I'm actually super annoyed by that. It feels like a cheap trick to cover up how bad the AI still is at following basic instructions. Like, you shouldn't NEED a whole separate box to tell it "don't draw extra fingers" if you just said "a person holding a cup." That's the bare minimum. It just proves the tech is still guessing and patching holes instead of truly understanding anything.
