Can anyone recommend any well designed artist portfolio websites? I'm thinking anything from a clean and functional look, to some more graphically interesting designs. Basically I'm looking to rebuild my website so I have somewhere to display my own work, and maybe set up for commissions.

Started the day with laundry and a hair cut. Then went to throw some music on as I did kitchen work. I wanted violin, but then I said why not to some Swing and that's been the sound track.

Don't forget that you may know people going through it & burying their struggles deep. There's so much stigma surrounding mental health issues. Breaking down that wall of stigma is EVERYTHING. Start a conversation. Show folks they matter. Listen to them. You could make a life-changing difference.
For World Suicide Prevention Day, September 10th:

Remember to check-in on people who:

-have been quiet lately
-never ask for help
-always seem happy
-come across as 'strong'
-seem to have it all 'figured out'
-are going through life transitions
-are always there for everyone else
-say they're 'fine'
-you haven't heard from recently

As I box the last of the items from that toxic situation into storage, I'm reminded of something important. Never be mad at yourself for the time you spent enjoying something. Even if it turns bad and you have to leave. You still grew as a person. You still got something important out of it.

Captain Hook from Peter Pan and the Pirates with a pencil saying: "Very well. If my work must be scraped, I will encounter obscurity as a bride and hug it in my arms. For I, at least, have built a legitimate art career, prompt jockey! I have made comics in DeviantArt as a boy. I have made Flash cartoons in Newgrounds as a man. I have drawn OCs, various commissions and NSFW of Rouge the Bat with the fattest tits you can imagine! I have been inspired by the finest art communities ever to grace Tumblr, Twitter or Bluesky. In short, I will continue to draw and improve my craft throughout my personal journey. Whereas YOU are a pathetic creature, forever locked in the self-serving egocentricities of generative AI, slowly sacrificing your human cognition in exchange for hiding your pitiful mediocrity and lack of talent. You will NEVER be an artist, and you will NEVER be remembered! So… steal my work now, and be done with it!"

After seeing genAI game trailers appear even before Gamescom, I reached out to a few trailer editors to see how they feel about its use. Derek Lieu gave me this winner of a quote, among many others in the article.
A quote from the article, said by Derek Lieu. "Even without considering the negative ethical, ecological, or legal implications of using genAI (of which there are MANY), I think it's utterly ridiculous to even consider using it in creative works because even a little bit will make people question everything else in the game or trailer. You can’t put a tiny little bit of poop in a dinner and expect people to eat it."
