Are there certain precautions in place for the infamous DeviantArt hacker who is currently going about DA, hacking accounts and posing as various artists to insult others and thus get the original artist banned? Because I heard about it from a friend, and I'm hoping he's not gonna target PMD Explorers given the large number of members it has.

Well, we can’t really do anything about it if one of our admins has a shitty password.

I think rabies' professor was talking more in the design sense. Illustrator is vastly more useful when you're designing logos and graphics for companies, as vectors can be used at pretty much any size, so it's useful if the company wants to use the logo on large-scale things.

Yeah, but then that’s why I expressed confusion at the professors’ choice in words - I feel like someone in that spot should be clear, and it seems kind of dumb to have to explain for them what they meant, especially when it comes to design, which is hardly… about drawing/painting.  You know?  No one can dispute that vectors are great for logo stuff, but I wouldn’t call Illustrator a good “drawing” program, which was the word used.  I wouldn’t want to make an assumption here about what the professor actually meant without hearing why they chose the word drawing.

I've started taking an electronic imaging class this semester, and one of the first things our professor taught us was that Illustrator was generally more useful for drawing than Photoshop, because of vectors vs. bitmaps ... as well as a few other extra tools... I'm a little surprised because I don't think I've ever seen someone heavily use Illustrator... tl;dr: Photoshop >/< Illustrator and why?

Illustrator is fine if you’re really into vectors.  I have no idea at all why your professor would say that it’s more useful than Photoshop for drawing, though - drawing in Illustrator is very clunky, to be honest.  It’s a program you don’t even need a tablet to make art in, which is a plus, but it’s also kind of… hmm, it’s not really like drawing at all, to be honest.  It’s more like arranging shapes that you manually make, if that makes sense.  It should make sense if you’ve used both.  But as for actually drawing using a stylus, Photoshop is better for that.  I’m not quite sure what’s up with your professor to just make such a statement like that.

How hard was it for you to start drawing porn, or well, anything intimate? I can barely draw two characters kissing without having a fit... Do you have any tips on how to get over it?

Ahh… well, it took some courage, and I had to muster it up a little, but it wasn’t.. TOO hard.  The hardest part was getting the gall to draw actual dicks etc. - because I really had no good idea what those looked like when I was 14.  I had no interest in looking up pictures either.  Guys never really interested me (???) but I still wanted to draw porn for some dumb reason.

For getting over it, I recommend trying out being totally alone and doing it and not showing anyone - and then if that just isn’t cutting it, try doing a stream where people who like porn are watching and draw there.  Maybe the support would help?  In any case, trying out these two opposites to see which spurs you more could help, until you don’t have any problems with it.  It took me a while to really get over it though!  And as a matter of fact, the stuff I like drawing the most is totally for myself and I won’t show anyone.  So, you might be like that too!  Whatever the case, don’t feel bad over it, and just try to have fun.  That’s what it’s about, really!

If you HAD to have a tattoo of something on your body, what would you have done and where would you have it?

Probably I’d have some really intricate floral pattern, because that never really gets less pretty, and anyone can appreciate that.  I came to the conclusion that I really like patterns like that only in the past year, which was solidified when I saw a lady recently with something similar all over her body when I was on errands.  I’d just pick a spot, probably arm or leg.

Hello, Ma'am. I am somewhat unsure about restrictions regarding accessories that worn by team members. How many 'custom' accessories is each team member allowed?

Well, each member can wear 3 at one time, and that would take 2 accessory vouchers (unless all 3 are items from the shop instead of 2 shop + 1 basic) - and then that takes 3 accessory vouchers to modify each of those.  So you could have each of them slightly customized, for a total of all 3 worn accessories being allowed to be modified.

Just take care!  With that freedom comes the responsibility of making sure your modified accessories aren’t way too complicated for other people to care about drawing!

Is being a Pathfinder a sneasel only thing or can others join? It just seems like the type of thing my rescuers would do between missions.

I imagine they wouldn’t mind a bit of help from time to time, but it wouldn’t be official.

Now that I think of it, did Fresnel ever give back the Icicle Triangle to Maple, or did he unknowingly leave it lying around somewhere in Steel City? Since after all, if a innocent electric or metal type picks it up and plays it, it could unleash a punishing snowstorm to engulf the buildings and roads by accident, and the citizens would be unprepared if no snowplows or salt trucks are available.

The Rescuers securely have it, don’t worry!

Hi Pk!^^ I was wondering if my Sentret could hold a leaf umbrella without an accessory voucher, or does it count as an accessory? o:

I wouldn’t list it if I were you, but if your Sentret’s just holding a leaf in a lot of comics, then, I don’t really think anyone would complain!

Even if the clarinet is a legendary instrument, could someone like a Aron snack on it since it appears to be metallic?

Nope

Hey PK! How would you feel about helping me with my tattoo? I need someone to sketch/draw it out for me because I can't really do it, like I've tried and it comes out pretty, not good. Plus, you're my favorite artist so it would be super awesome skjfnkdgjns

Ahh… I’m not *super* open for commissions right now, because I have so much coming up to do - but in October or so I may have time!

Hey PK! This evening I was looking to buy that Kyurems print that you used to have in your store, but was kind of sad to see that it wasn't there anymore. In fact there are tons of pictures that I would love to have prints of, and I'm sure I'm not the only one! So why not sell more? Is the printing cost the issue or do we have to request it before you sell it?

https://store.papayakitty.com/products/kyurems Is it this one?  I searched for Kyurem and found it - or did you mean another? (I’m not sure I had another in the store)
