finally, holy crap. so sick of this joke and how it infantilizes and degrades Titans, who by all accounts are the most thoughtful and cunning. Wei Ning? outsmarted an Ahamkara to kill a whole bunch of Ahamkara. Shaxx? knows Macbeth BY HEART, and left the most insightful reviews on Ikora's work.

I’m a Titan main. I didn’t care. I actually embraced the meme! I thought it was just a harmless fun joke. The joke that Titans are neanderthals is nothing new to the community “No shoot! Only punch!”. The Titans protected the city with the Six Fronts. They are a bastion, a wall. Which is why I picked Titan. But it’s okay to meme about it.

That is no longer the case with the crayon “joke” however. I can’t force anyone to stop using it. I can only ASK that people stop using it.

Quick question: if I wanted to print my own acrylic charms, what product could I use to do that? So far I've tried Shrinky Dinks and Grafix Shrink Film and both have been very disappointing (didn't shrink right, colors blended, etc). Do you by any chance know the product that stores like Zap use?

Kiriska: To print your own acrylic charms, you would need: 1) acrylic sheets, 2) a printer capable of printing on acrylic sheets, and 3) a laser cutter capable of cutting acrylic sheets.

You can find clear acrylic sheets and sometimes white acrylic sheets in places like Home Depot, but I honestly have no idea if these are suitable for printing.

You can try transfer methods of getting digital images onto acrylic, but barring that, you "will have to look into industrial flatbed printers that use solvent-based inks, UV-cured inks, or other methods of printing“ -- your home inkjet cannot print on acrylic.

Similarly, you’ll probably need an industrial laser cutter to cut the acrylic.

Basically, there’s a reason not a lot of artists make their own acrylic charms, and those who do also start a whole business with it -- all of that equipment is quite an investment.

color & texture!! I can recognize your art just by that!

Ohh I didn’t expect texture, but I doooo get attached to and overuse some of my textures so it makes sense they are recognizable as mine :3

What’s my artist Trademark?™

surprisekitty replied to your post “@ all of my art friends - do you have any quick tips for doing stuff...”

Bob Ross is your friend. Depending on the program you use, you can probably download a Bob Ross Brush pack, which is literally just the digital version of the like, two or three brushes Bob uses in all his videos. Otherwise, I mean, what kind of background do you want to do? there's no right or wrong way to do it, but there is a Most Efficient way depending on the style you're aiming for.

Lol, Jen suggested Bob Ross as well, so I think I will definitely try a paint-along this weekend.

In all reality, I have no idea what I’m going for. Just kind of... wanting to start trying things, I guess? I am in love with the sort of loose, brush-strokey styles so I may try to mimic that, but there’s no telling if I’ll like it actually doing it.

Is there a tutorial for how to edit this code? I can't figure out how to do it by myself, and even reading the notes in the code and doing something as simple as replacing the Hero name, nothing seems to happen?

Also, the pop-up blocks do not work in Chrome

I made it on Chrome, so if they’re not working for you it must be something other than the browser.

But if the pop-ups are only not appearing in the preview window (when you’re editing the page) that is normal, and I wrote so at the top of the page in the section that says “READ ME” in big blocky letters. You need to Update Preview then Save, and view the page in another tab to see the changes live.

There is no tutorial at this time because I’m not really sure how to make it clearer than the notes I wrote... But I suppose I could try sometime in the future.
