Account Update

Sun Feb 21, 2010, 12:21 PM


Hello guys! :wave:
You probably noticed a huge inactivity on this account in the last months. And now since I am, aka my alter-ego ^pica-ae, Text Art Gallery Moderator, my time for this account has becom even less.
However i still use this account for collecting ressources i use on my artworks. And from time to time share some resssources i made myself.

I do not thank for faves, cos i just have no time to do so. I try to reply to comments tho, but it's tough ;). I am not even sure i will find the time to thank for watches. Anyway, i am glad if you watch this account, if you want my ressources :) But if you wanna talk to me, you gotta go to ^pica-ae :p no way to catch me here :B

Sooooo, what now? i may or may not be uploading stuff to this account in the future. I cannot make any promises. Uploading quality stock takes time that i just don't have.

See ya around,
Anne | ^pica-ae :peace: :heart:




Distractions for you! :la:for the lulz [link] :giggle: gonna go watch the next race now :eager:

It's been a long time…

yes, i haven't updated this account in a while ^^;
in the meantime i got a lot of new watchers, some of you that already watch my main-account ^pica-ae
as i don't have the time (or, to my shame, don't take the time) to thank you all for adding me in person, i might wanna throw in a huuuuuuuge thank you to all of you around here
:iconteddyplz: :iconthxwatchplz: :tighthug: :heart:

oh, you might wanna introduce yourself to me? that would be cool, just say hi and something like what you are doing here at dA :)

anyway, i managed to even upload a new deviation today :D awesome, right? :eager:

about a stock trouble thing…
on this account i had the incident of someone using my stock to make some new stock.

in my rules i state this:
do not sell, copy, transmit or distribute without my permission | send me a note with your request

for me making new stock clearly falls under "distribute". am i totally wrong about that? maybe i do have a vocabulary problem here… i dunno. what do you think?
or if you also provide stock, how do you handle this?
um… i don't wanna bitch around, you know… i just think that my chances of being credited by a third party person using stock that was made from my stock are pretty low :|
maybe i should just add the rule of "do not use my stock to create new stock!" and problem is solved.

so, that's actually all i could say by now… maybe i will manage to make some more deviations for this account… dunno really, i am getting kinda lazy to manage more than 1 account at dA atm :unimpressed:
but cheers too all of you out there :w00t:

DD: Thank you!

oh, my... was browsing the DD page like usually on my morning... and suddenly there was my stock image listed!


Turkey 01 by ~pica-stock This is a great stock photo that could be used as a beautiful background to a manipulation or as the main focus. Lovely colours and great quality. (Suggested by `PatrickRuegheimer and Featured by `UnicornReality)


Thank you guys for suggesting and featuring :hug:
i really apprecaite the recognition on this account as well ^^"
so, here we go :iconcheerplz: :iconpyrodanceplz: :faint: *faiont*

oh, do check out my other Turkey pictures!
<dd><dl> </dl></dd>

actually i still have 4 more lying around on my harddrive... the uploading took ages for each pic, cos of the huge file-size (i wanted them to be good to use and uploaded them at 6000px width... so, 20 min each picture!)

they were all analog pictures, so i had to scan them at 900dpi or something and get rid of some dirt on them... at least now i know the work i put in them was worth it :aww:

thank you again :glomp:

Stock Rules

Tue Feb 3, 2009, 5:34 AM


pica-stock | brushes, paterns, textures, photography and more

this is the stock-account of ^pica-ae, for any questions send a message to one of my 2 accounts (it might be easier and faster to reach me via ^pica-ae, i check that account way more often)

What this is about
  • i created this stock account to give back some of what i received here at deviantART through my stay here
  • i try to produce high quality stock material and accept requests if there's somethig you need but couldn't find yet
  • i claim to have copyright on all that i produce. in case you ever doubt, please feel free to send me a note first. i will try to clear up any misunderstanding considering such a situation should it ever come up

Here are some simple Rules
  • free to use for non-commercial works on deviantart.com | send me a link to your deviation
  • please ask permission for commercial works | send me a note with your request
  • do not sell, copy, transmit or distribute without my permission | send me a note with your request
  • you are free to alter, transform, or build upon this work | just respect the creators rights.

Last but not least!
  • i thank you all for your support and ideas
  • i try to make this as professional as possible, so if you have any ideas or tips, feel free to let me have some insight into your knowledge (...uh, that sounded strange ;))
  • and now: please enjoy my stocks and make some stunning pieces! :thumbsup:

Welcome to pica-stock!

So, after almost 2 years on my old account (^pica-ae) i now decided to open a new one for stock material.

It's still a bit empty, but i am working on it. I already got some usable pics of shubby walls to submit. I only used them like 3 years ago and i think i can share them on dA.

Anyhow, i will probably submit brushes, pics, patterns and whatever may come to my mind.

The good thing about a new account is this 'starting over again' thing. This time i plan to be a bit more organised about the account.

I am not sure about transferring deviations from the old one to the new one... Cos that might cause some misunderstandings. But the avatars are almost the same. People should be able to tell ;p

Let's just see how this will develop.

Cheers, ^pica-ae :peace:
