@ifbookspod.bsky.social @michaelhobbes.bsky.social @notalawyer.bsky.social I know you get a lot of requests all the time, but if you could make time to tackle Natalie Whittle's 'Shrink the City'. It is so incredibly misleading between the cover & content, a perfect ibck book.
Thx for your time!

Human Artists!

Use one piece to convince people to follow you!
A cartoon. A burning building has a couple of workers looking at a rich CEO who has just jumped out of the window with a golden parachute. They say 'Is - is that a parachute made out of GOLD?? How is that even physically possible?'. The other replies. 'The ways of the absurdly wealthy would be myserious, were they not so incredibly obnoxious.'

First page of 'Voces', by ElRotoChoro. Aurora, an anthropomorphic horse, is looking at herself in the mirror and admiring her hair. She is in her underwear. She says 'Dang, Girl, your hair is Killing!... Hum. Still, there's kind of something off about it though'. Her reflection starts talking to her. 'Something like what, Aurora?'. 'Hmmm IDK....'. The reflection offers 'Uh! I Know! What if you dyed your hair?' The other Aurora thinks about it 'Do ya think?' 'Yeah! Wouldn't you like to dye your hair an extravagant color? I mean, look at you, you're an artist and you have that drab brown color.' 'I like the color, but I think you're right...'.

Six daus in that lousy elevator... no one deserves that kind of torture.' Second panel is a big spread with a bunch of people arriving to a space ring. Narrator says 'Traitorous rat! After all these years...' An old man is angry at the front of the arrival line. The immigration officer says 'Dr Choque? Wow! The other man who made this ring so great! How come you've never visited us?'. Dr. Choque replies 'I didn't spend my whole life working so a bunch of leeches like you could live in paradise!' Third panel a small girl with two donkeys welcomes Dr. Choque. In panel 4 he seems confused when she hugs him. Narration in the last two panels reads 'Did he have a granddaughter??'

Second panel. Watson says 'That's an old trick, my dear fellow.'. Sherlock replies. 'Old, you say? Then let me enlighten you! You last bathed three days past, and for no longer than ten minutes, using the most miserly soap available on the market!' Third panel. Watson: 'That... is... true!'. Holmes: 'Following which you sat to dine in the altogether, jellied eels with pie and and mash, no less, only to let fall some scalding morsels upon your nether regions!'. Fourth panel. Watson: 'It still burns-- but how the devil do you know?'. Holmes: 'Easy! The cameras I installed in your residence afford me a most splendid view. I do so enjoy watching you slumber.' Fifth panel.

En esta página la Rana hace una primera versión, hace pruebas, pide retroalimentación, se da un descanso y recuerda hidratarse! En esta página la Rana retrabaja la cosa, se permite obsesionarse con los detalles y se permite alejarse del proyecto un tiempo. Cuando está lista, La Rana termina la cosa. Paso 3. Elige una licencia. -Quizás una dedicación al Dominio Público, como la WTFPL o la CC0. Dejas que todo el mundo use tu trabajo como quieran, sin tener que atribuirte la autoría original. -O quizás pide Reconocimiento, como con la CCBY. Das licencia a todo el mundo a que hagan lo que quieran con tu trabajo siempre y cuando reconozcan tu autoría original. -Igual y te acomoda más el Copyleft, como la Free Art License o la CCBYSA. Das licencia a todo el mundo para hacer lo que quieran con tu trabajo, pero TIENEN que atribuirte el trabajo original Y tienen que usar la misma licencia que usa tu trabajo original.

Portada para Una guía práctica para hacer Cultura Libre, de Fodongo. La Rana está haciendo tonterías por todos lados. Paso 1. ¡Decide hacer una cosa! La Rana tiene una idea. ¿Qué cosa? pues... (A La Rana se le ocurren varias actividades, como historietas, libros, esculturas, pinturas, obras de teatro, música, video juegos y filmes) La Rana brinca sobre unas palabras que dicen "Cualquier Cosa". Paso 2. Haz la cosa. La Rana planea e investiga, y bocetea y hace borradores.

In this page The Frog makes a First Version, tests it, asks for feedback and takes a break, remembering to hydrate! In this page The Frog reworks the thing, allows itself to obsess over the details, then allows itself to walk away from it for a bit. When it's ready, it finishes the thing! Step 3. Pick a license. -Maybe a Dedication to the Public Domain, like WTFPL or CC0. You allow everyone in the world to use your work however they please, without having to give attribution. -Or maybe ask for Attribution, like CCBY. You give license to everyone to do as they please with your work as long as they credit you as the original author. -Perhaps you vibe more with Copyleft, like the FAL or CCBYSA. You grant everyone license to do whatever with your work but they HAVE to attribute the original work to you AND they have to use the same license as your original work. There's a lot of other licenses, but those 5 are fine to consider when starting! Don't get too bogged down when picking one!
