This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
Gotta say I kinda floored myself yesterday. For the past few months I have really been increasing my workouts, more for psychological reasons than trying to "look" any particular way. But I did two and half hours of cardio yesterday, not to mention about a half hour of weights...and I am so exhausted today I can barely stand it. I did get up with Nick at six-thirty this morning to go do cardio, but I struggled the whole half hour. Legs just felt whipped. I have noticed that my looks have changed quite a bit since I have been training like a madman, but that was never my reason for doing this. I think it was partly because of my sadness when I lost my doggie, and then, of course, having quit smoking several months prior to that. Now I am kinda glad the psychological reasons made me do it because my birthday is monday and I think I probably look so much better even than last year that it was, inadvertantly, worth it. I average about an hour and a half of cardio everyday, seven days a week. When I thought of how many hours a week that was it kinda surprised me.
Funny thing is I haven't mentioned my birthday to anyone including Nick, so I don't think anyone around me even remembers. Truthfully it doesn't matter. He's kinda busy with another wedding this week. I think its the last of his fraternity brothers getting married so its a big deal.
I think for my birthday I'm gonna buy a new tripod and another battery for the camera since it looks like one of the shoots coming up is gonna have me traveling out a ways..
So, likely you've heard this before, but with a quick glance at your gallery I realized that I can't tell what's an actual photograph, and what's a drawing.
You do very, very true to life work, and it's amazing.
Thanx. I believe everyone develops their own personal style according to what pleases their eye or their own inner sense of aesthetics. Ages ago I remember seeing my very first erotic cartoons.They floored me because they took what we perceived as "real' and gave them an air of the fantastic, imagined and enlarged beauty. I actually thought they were FAR more sensual than actual photographs of people engaged in the same situations. When I began my own photography I found that expanding on it with real drawn art started to give me that feeling again..and the more I took the real and began transferring it into the fantastic..the more sensual and erotic it appeared to me. And that I liked it...alot.
I realize that this is a very personal and acquired taste, but it ended up clearly defining my work from that of other photographers. I loved that because it allowed me to pioneer style rather than follow trends. That is very very important to me because if you have read any of my rants you will see that I quite simply abhor that fact that many photographers nowadays simply copy the style and techniques of other photographers...so much so.. that I cannot tell anyone's work from anothers. They become a part of the "BLUR" of trend rather than that pristine raw diamond jutting from the ground I like to call real...style.
I'll actually agree with you about erotic art being more sensual than erotic photography. I've seen plenty of porn, and frankly, I would rather see paintings, drawings, etc than photographs.
There's a cold, hard reality to photographs that somehow deadens the sensation, which the softer, less substantial feeling of art heightens it instead.
And now I feel like an idiot, because I went through and after scrolling down slightly on the pictures I discovered the camera info...so they're all pictures.
whoa....

If you don't mind my asking, have you ever thought of doing covers for e-books? Or do you do that already?
