I can relate to this so much, when I first started with digital art, mind you the internet was just born, it was rough, and you can imagine how the tutorials back THEN were. I learned trial an error is the best tutorial. It's so great when you finally "get it" though. GIMP is an awesome program once you know your way around. And I love the little pixel critter! keep it up =)
actually the only thing I ate at all in the MRE was the oatmeal bar, tasted like a nature valley granola bar. Seemed to have endured the best.
I made a blog section and added Disquis for comments. I'm pretty excited about this!
Thank you so much!
