Currencies and Bitcoin

I've grown so use to buying and selling with the dollar that I find it odd to use any other currency (especially that one that's unofficial). Yet despite how much I despise money, I understand it's still needed in society. So when I found out about Bitcoin (or BTC), a decentralized digital currency where you are the bank, I was dumbfounded. Not only that but it's open source.

The thought that I'm in control of my money, no longer at whims of companies like Paypal, I'm my own bank, and it's all anonymous just made owning money a joy again. Which is a strange but welcome feeling.

What's great is that it's so easy get BTC. Plenty of really good sites that give it away for free mean that I've earned more BTC then I've had USD since I got my first debt card. For once I may be able to afford something! What even more convenient is that even though the currency is digital, the public key to your wallet is just text and so you can bring it with you anywhere with a simple QR code. I've thought about printing one out.

In the long run, I hope to use BTC more as it grows and becomes more widely used.

Like shooting a gun blind folded

Age old rant I've been holding back...

There was time when every time I asked for help or opinion about my characters (weather as a whole or individual) or art in general, they'd say, "do what pleases you." Thanks, but, I wouldn't be asking if I wasn't sure about my own decision. Like shooting a gun blind folded. Asking for others opinion "pleases me" because they may have a better idea then my own that I may just like and incorporate. That's why I'm asking!

So, yes, when I ask for help, please help. If you can't, that's fine.

Signature item

Zack drawn by me (2005)
There was only one character that had a signature item that went with them everywhere he did; Zack Casey and his blue hat. I gave up to start new and created Zenon Tigerpaw in 2009.

He would later become a pantless gray mouse with varies black marks, green shirt, and tends to wear no pants. A freind of mine on Google Plus decided to add a light blue scarf to him. It was later included in another gif and has made it way onto a request.

Like Linux, others are free to modify my charactors in their images as they see fit, though the canon is only changed if I truly like it enough to include in the offical model sheets. This is the first time someone that wasn't me has added created an item of anything for my charactor would later become signature item.
