Livejournal curmudgeon.

Please take me off any commercial filters (in terms of you trying to sell me stuff).

Please also take me off any twitter filters.

Thanks!

I might periodically talk about my artsy stuff, that I might someday actually try again to sell (I used to be moderately successful, but it takes time, money and good health to do so regularly) and that might involve me giving a link to my Etsy site. I don't always filter things like that, but I'd probably cut tag stuff... is that the kind of thing you're talking about? Or much more overt stuff than that?

Nope. :) And cut-tags always remove any problems from my end. I'm just a curmudgeon. If you were talking about the process of artistic creation, I'd be keen to read it.

Probably 99 percent would be "this is the type of material I used, here was my vision, and here's what I ended up with, does anyone have any comments, etc. and so on" sorts of things, and maybe a link to Etsy if I put it up for sale. That part would be low-key. Most likely I'll just link to my crafty/artsy blog and not hash stuff out in LJ.

I hate to turn anyone off in my LJ, and I usually do employ a lot of opt-in (and a few opt-out) filters)... and liberal cut tags. If you ever catch me not cut-tagging enough, feel free to bug me about it.

Sure! I think discussing the creative process is a good thing.

I've never understood how to do cut-tags until I looked it up recently so I've tried to use links to graphics unless it's a smaller pic.

I've always been annoyed with people on Myspace and similar places who post "comments" or greetings that include huge graphics that screw up the layout of the page.
