COMBO!

Vincent & Theo Van Gogh 

“It is not immediately obvious which of Zadkine’s figures is Vincent and which is Theo. Like all who relieve the suffering of others, Theo—in a process that is the exact opposite of a blood transfusion—has taken some of Vincent’s pain into himself. Soon, however, it becomes obvious that while the sky weighs heavily on both figures, one, Vincent, feels gravity as a force so terrible it can drag men beneath the earth. From this moment on you are held by the pathos and beauty of what Zadkine depicts: despair that is inconsolable, comfort that is endless. One figure says, “I can never feel better,” the other, “I will hold you until you are better.”

Okay so more and more ppl have started to use ClipStudio/MangaStudio, but a lot of you peeps seems to not be aware of stuff like software updates or where to find help for troubleshooting the program etc.

Smith Micro(the western distributor of CSP) as well as Clip Studio’s Official distributor are actively sharing resources and tutorials via their social medias. If you want to know when next sale or update is, it’s good to follow these on social media.

So here’s list of CSP/MS5 links that everyone who actively use the program should bookmark in their browser:

ClipStudio’s free materials page <— Occasionally CSP uploads new fun custom brushes and a lot of them are really nice.

MangaStudio/Clip Studio TWITTER <— this is where you’ll be up to date w updates and sales etc.

MangaStudio/Clip Studio YOUTUBE <—- has video tutorials on how to install, update, use all of the cool tools etc. If you’re new to the program go here.

Doug Hills on Twitter <—- the guy behind most of the youtube guides. Very involved within the MS5/CSP community.

Oh, hello.

Last week, on the first day of Mental Health Month, we asked you two questions:

What are you doing today to make life easier for yourself? And if you feel up to it—if you feel like you are in a good enough place yourself—What can you do to make life a little bit better for someone else?

How did you answer last week? Has your situation changed? Maybe you feel a little bit stronger this week. Maybe you feel like you need a little more help. Whatever the case is, consider letting your followers know what you’re doing. Make a post. Tell ‘em what you’re doing, or plan to do, for yourself or someone else. Inspire each other, Tumblr. We’ll be curating the best art and text posts in a special Explore page in two weeks.

Oh! One more thing: when you make the post on your Tumblr, tag it #MHM2018 so we know where to find it.

🚨This is a Red Alert for net neutrality 🚨

Last December, the FCC voted to to kill net neutrality. If we do not take action, this will kill the free and open internet as we know it. The internet needs you—all of you—to make sure your voices are heard NOW.

We need all hands on deck for this one. It may be our last chance. If you’re feeling under-informed and overwhelmed about why net neutrality is so incredibly important, we have this handy guide just for you.

Here’s what you can do to save the internet:

In mid-May, the Senate will vote on a resolution to overrule the FCC using the Congressional Review Act (CRA). We only need one more vote in the Senate to win. Write or call your Senators or Representatives. You can also text BATTLE to 384-387 to get more information on how to write to your reps. You can do this, Tumblr.

Join us and dozens of your other favorite companies like Etsy, Vimeo, Reddit, and GitHub to raise awareness with the Red Alert campaign being run by Battle for the Net. Just add this small widget to your Tumblr to let your followers know how they can contact their reps. It’s as easy as copying and pasting the small line of code right into the customize theme page on the web.
