I won't be on my art account very much for a while ~ but I'll try and get back into it by Christmas. I need some time out. Also, another reason is that my brother (who is a musician) has commissioned me to do the artwork for the cover of his next CD!! I will need all my powers of concentration to do that so I have disabled journals and devwatch for the time being ... sorry an' all

I will be checking into my stock account quite a bit if you need to contact me urgently.

Keep well, everybody




Recently I've been researching User Scripts that are available to download and install if you use Firefox Browser. These scripts are little add-on programs and I've found quite a few that are specific to dA First you must install an add-on to Firefox called Greasemonkey [link]

Here are the best I've found so far for dA:




This is SO cool ~ it installs a tab next to your Title Box when you submit art ~ click it and see the random titles it comes up with! It's a great idea when you can't think up a title yourself.

_{Incidentally, I came across this online random title generator via Google [link]}




This is a useful little tool that tells you if deviants are watching you when you go on their pages ~ it shows up as a little gold icon to the right of their user icons




This one is useful and fun ~ it gives you clickable choices for instantly formatting your text in comments (and journals I've just noticed). It also features a nifty drop down box for emotes where you just click on the one you want and it magically appears in your comment/journal. The only blip is that it only works in NEW comments and not when you REPLY to comments. Still good, tho




Wow, I really like this one. Once installed, you'll see "thumber" appear next to "messages" at the top of your page. When you view galleries, click the thumber and HEY PRESTO all the thumb codes magically appear underneath each thumb. I've been using it for this journal and it makes life so much easier

I hope you try out one or all of these ~ they really do enhance the dA experience
