Hi!
So, I'd written up some resolutions for this year (...pretty much the same ones as the past several years, just with different phrasing). I want to try to read the Bible in a year, get something done each month for both writing and drawing, finish that animation study I'd come up with and didn't finish, ...and a few other things.
This year, I thought I'd try focusing on month-to-month, with the goal of getting something done on a monthly basis (and/or checking my progress at the end of each month). I kind'a thought that would break the year up into 12 sections, but make it more open than a deadline every day or every week. (a general 'get this done by the end of the year' thing could end up with procrastinating the whole year away, while a daily or weekly deadline can feel too rigid and annoying)
...I'm already twelve chapters behind on reading the Bible. :/
So, have any of you guys made resolutions for this year? And if so, what was your idea?
(by the way, I got yet another Star Wars fic idea. If I write it, it'd be an AU based on The Prince and the Pauper, and take place during the prequel trilogy. ...I keep going back and forth about which fic to work on. Within the past several days, I started to work on Shoes, then I felt like working on my Warning fic, but then I started to work on my Alt EpII idea, and now I have a new fic idea. ...There was also another idea I'd considered working on but decided not to.)

Vote for a Danny Phantom pic idea for me to draw?
I've been on tumblr a lot lately. Mainly just posting random junk there. Mostly unfinished Danny Phantom ideas. There was this Danny Phantom AU-themed fanzine thing I'd tried applying to draw/write something for, but I hadn't made it. However, I'd thought up a few ideas for that, so I thought I'd go ahead and draw something, just because I want to. ...But which idea should I draw? Anyone on here want to vote for what I'll draw? First pick a number for the idea you think sounds most interesting: A reversed portal AU. What if the portal had fused ectoplasm with the world around Danny instead of Danny himself? Semi-melty walls, townspeople with floating hair and glowing eyes. Danny’s the only one who notices, and, though it freaks him out at times, he can’t mention it to anyone. Everything in town secretes ectoplasmic energy. The higher the level of that energy, the stranger the town becomes. An evil future human-side!Dan AU. In "The Ultimate Enemy" episode, what if it had been
Of old fics and rollerblades
I haven't been doing much art-related stuff for the past several months. I guess I should get back into things... Been thinking about working on some fic ideas, but it's complicated. It's like... "Hm, I think I would like to work on one of my fic ideas." All of my fic ideas: "Me! Pick me!" And then when I finally pick a specific one (and ignore the random stuff that keeps reminding me of my other ideas) and start reacquainting myself with that one fic (looking over my notes, watching some episodes or movie), I end up feeling like it's exhausting work and I stop. (I think, over the past month or so, I had decided to work on a specific fic at least three or four different times without really writing anything for either of them before getting discouraged.) Also, in other news, a few weeks ago I had an idea of buying some rollerblades/inline skates and skating around my neighborhood. I'd kinda just realized that biking and skating counts as exercise, and they're things I had actually
Eclipse, and literature correction
Well, I guess Eclipse is DeviantArt, now. ...I think I'm kind of okay with it now? I donno, now that the old site's gone, I feel semi-excited in a way. New start and all that (probably best to think of Eclipse as a new website, which has some similarities to dA - less heartbreak that way). Thought I'd try adding a profile picture banner thing, updating my 'about' information, and change my avatar icon (since the old one of Anakin looked kind of fuzzy when blown up on my profile). Also, though when I first tried exploring Eclipse I had trouble figuring out the notifications stuff, now it doesn't seem as complicated. Not sure if something was adjusted or if I'd just figured out what I need to click. But it looks like it's all there, in the same order, now. When clicking 'watch' and then 'all' from the sub menu bar, it shows the first half (watched deviants' deviations, group deviations, journals, polls and status updates), and when clicking the bell it shows the second half (comments
Played with Eclipse a little -- no literature?
So... Since the site's going to switch to Eclipse soon, I downloaded a new browser today and transferred my website favorites, so that I can still use the site after the change. Looks like Eclipse works on the new browser... (and hopefully I'll like this browser.) But when I saw a comment about Sta.Sh Writer not being in Eclipse, I had to check for myself.
...It appears that dA is deleting all of its text editors...? I can't start a new Sta.Sh Writer draft, I can't edit lit deviations with the plain text editor, and when I try clicking to write a new literature deviation, it just takes me to a blank screen and won't let me format the text (e
