Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    !EEK!

    I have not taken pictures of my paintings yet. And I must say I am not that great at it this far. But after taking abstract painting I realized I can be an abstract painter if I put my mind to it.

    Anywho I dont have my paintings, but I do have a few of my printmaking stuff. Well, I finished these this week. Some of your have already seen it. Its a soft-ground etching process. Its the same image on the plate, but with different processes on top. Anywho...it would be nice if I gave some contractive criticism cause it would help me do even better prints.

              First I want to say thank you, I am glad you guys liked them.

              Second, I have to say I love printmaking. Its such a stress reliever. Even though your died tired by the end of all that work. But you guys ever get a chance take a printmaking class. If your professor is awesome, you will love it. I've been hook on it since I took the class 2 years ago. You will never really understand printmaking unless you have taken a class. Its one of those things where you have to be there inorder to even know what I'm talking about. I didnt even know what I was getting myself into when I took the class. BTW Jinx if you go to CSUN or need to take extre units take Printmaking with Sarah Whorf. She is the only teacher, teaching that class.

              O and !EEK you do have corrupt mind. The guy isnt touching his butt. That plate was meant to be put there from the beginning. But once I printed the first image, I loved it so much just by itself. Then that green guy was put ontop of it so I would see how it would fit together.

              Anywho, I have to agree !EEK is soo darn cute. That is why he is my little pumpkin. HEHE....

                  This sort of thing is called a metamorphic painting. And for that one, Dali, being not a particularly original artist (IMHO), just nicked the idea from stuff that was around 50 years earlier. There are quite a few of his works that reuses the same sort of skull imagery - there is one which is a photograph composed of a pile of about a dozen naked women arranged to form the shape of a skull (he had fun doing that photo-shoot I bet!).

                  I'll post some metamorphic images from the 19th century. There was quite a fad for them then. Since this is an Armenian forum I'll start with two with a sort of Armenian connection - they are of that nasty old Ottoman sultan Abdul Hamid.

                    Here is one of a skull. The mesage being, I presume, that even the youngest of us have death as their inevitable future.
