Seriously, if the art is strong, some color variation simply doesn't matter that much. The average person will never notice anyway and only you the artist know it didn't match exactly what you intended.

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

Tweet by @night margin "digital artist woes" image of the same color gradient on various screen (monitor 1 appears very grey purple, phone appear VERY pink, monitor 2 appears a more saturated purple, laptop appears brownish red, family's phone appears much darker and bluer etc.)

I cannot recommend you enough to install the Wikipedia app on your devices and use it like you would any search engine. Nowadays they even have tabs so you can open many articles at once.

And, if you can, please donate to the foundation. It has survived the internet enshittification that way.

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors

“With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

Its my birthday!!! As is bsky tradition, I would be so appreciative if people would share some of my art to help celebrate!! 🥳🎉

Symmetrical bust of a yellow tiefling. She has vitiligo on the left side of her face going all the way up her horn. Her hair is in large silver ringlets, and her horns curl in a corkscrew pattern. She’s wearing a large jesters collar with ruffles underneath.

My character Odd, a pink skinned astral elf with scars on her wrists, the side of her face, and one large spider webbed scar in the center of her chest. She has shaggy wolf cut styled white hair, with two long strands on either side of her face trailing down to her chest. Her ears are long and end in two antenna like points. Her eyes are small galaxies with bright stars as the pupils. Her index finger is cut, bright silvery glowing blood, like molten starlight, is seeping out and dripping down to form an arrow.she is dressed in a loose flowy shirt, and a large fur trimmed winter coat.

A drawing of a redhead woman, in a book shop, looking about a shelf and has a transparent hand emitting magic. She is dressed in Victorian period clothing, and gentle light shines in from above

Work in progress of my water witch, Whinifryd, wading in a pond with frogs all around her and the sun shining from behind.

Tho I agree with the general sentiment of that list of the enshitification of internet seeing that "join my Patreon" felt a bit like adding to the list of billionaires ruining everything street artists sharing the hat for a tip 😅

Beatriz Rebollo Art @beatrizrebolloart.bsky.social · 3d

People comparing creators and artist Patreons with big platforms subscriptions have me crazy.
If you didn't know we use Patreon because it's the only way to get an income and with most of us as myself we don't earn enough to cover our basic expenses per month.
A bit of consideration please.

The top 20 accounts blocked in the last 24 hours. They're almost entirely US government accounts. And they're catching block numbers that would easily put them in the all-time top blocked list, just in the first day.
