My wife's 3DSXL broke recently, so I'm waiting with baited breath for the clear ones to be one available. Do they snap with the original case parts? Is that a goal? They had a limited silver Mario one and I want to keep those panels when. I upgrade/repair hers...

SHINIESSSS

also a lot of the things they used ai for... so simple to draw and doodle...? like fuck

i saw this so late. but id be willing to extend a hand with that! :D always good to meet new people!

this is also scary as a store owner as if someone just decides they don't like me for whatever reason, they can just put a claim on me and nuke my ass. This can happen to anyone

Yeah, id rather just lurk or have genuine conversations with people. social media fame is fake, but being a wonderful human being and sharing what we enjoy is very much real. We can do that at any follower count!

i understand. even once reputable texture websites are selling fraudulent AI slop. it sucks. i'm sorry you had to deal with that and glad you removed the contaminated images.

that is great news then! i'm sad someone has to do this, but im glad someone sane is!

While I am all for this list, I do hope reports are being thoroughly investigated. I can see bad actors reporting a store of someone they don't like. So long as stores are looked at closely before being put on the list, it's a good thing.

One thing I do worry about is creators being falsely reported as well. Are reports being properly vetted? Also, something that happened to me recently is that a site that used to be reliable for fabric print textures started using AI. I had to throw out a lot of work just in case.

I always thought they were talking about things like marvelous designer, which yes, does simulate the shape and physics of the fabric, but it *is* different. But oh my God the reality of what AI mesh is... It's horrifying. Tech bros trample a key part of humanity and call it progress.

That much is true and slipped my mind. Step by step Tutorials are also a good way to prove yourself. If you can explain how something is drawn and show it, I think that should be good enough.

That is nice to think about... Though my laptop can't handle much screen recording. Perhaps after an upgrade. That being said, the patterns I make are stupid easy to draw. Literally swirls and circles/basic shapes. A schoolchild can imitate my art style. Never needed AI for cartoons and doodles.

I found some fabric patterns the other day and wanted to use them in my texture making... Only to find out that the site I got them from recently implemented AI. While I am greatful that it did push me to drawing some of my own instead, It made me sad and delayed one of my projects for several days

I need this possum! Look at his little face! Great shot. This made me laugh when I needed to!

Me every time I make pasta. I don't even like pasta, I just want it over with 😂
