Giving to those who are truly in need

=ImaRawkStar:iconImaRawkStar: reports, December 23
This is the time of year of which we all get tangled up in our own troubles and do not focus on some of the real issues of the world. Well, heifer.org can help us with this, by giving animals to families who are truly in need of food, shelter and security.

By donating a small sum of money, such as ten to twenty dollars, you could provide a family with an animal such as a cow, which could produce milk for the family, for food and cooking. With the extra milk it produces, the family can go to the local market and sell the milk to gain more money, which could go towards food and shelter. Over time, the family will start to gain an income and will be able to earn an education.

With the education, they can receive a steady job and produce a stable income for the family to survive. Just by donating a small sum of money, you could not change one life, but many around them. But this is not just it, the family MUST produce offspring to give to another family, which will do the same thing as the family before. Over time, the community will grow and sooner or later, the impoverished areas will start to gain strength.


Even if you can not donate any money, please donate a few seconds or minutes by adding a favorite to this article and sending it on to other deviants around deviantart. It would be really awesome if we could get some support on this, and maybe as an art community we can pull together to help others in need! I know it can be done!

When did we start hating everything?

When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.

SAAM Sexual Assault Awareness Month, April

=crystalofchaos:iconcrystalofchaos: reports, 1d 4h ago
Rape is not just a crime, it is a heinous and personal invasion on the most intimate of levels. Rape destroys lives and belittles its victims. End the silence, conquer fear, and speak up. We need to raise awareness and help prevent this inhumane crime.

According to HealingMercy, a six year member of dA, a number of friends and family members in her Facebook account have been spreading rumors of her activities offline, as well as their own...with her.

WWW: Pop art in the era of the pixel

$chix0r:iconchix0r: reports, March 25
It is 70 years since the first album cover. But, now that discs are giving way to digital downloads, what is the future for album art?

I'd like to say the same for blu-ray cover designs too, as a matter of fact. I rather miss the individual box/booklet/metal/whatever incarnations that make special dvd editions so, well, special (for me). It definitely makes a difference.

KIND OF UNRELATED but there you go.

It seems the only future for album art is the preview pictures on our computer and the little thumbs on our iPods. I like CDs (and DVDs) much better then the actual download, because it's nicer to have your own copy that you know will not ever get 'deleted' or 'corrupt' and etc. Plus, you get all the special goodies of pamphlets. :D

Nine Inch Nails have included extensive PDFs to their downloadable music. This is not as convenient or romantic as laying on your bed with the LP but it's a form of transmitting artwork with the music.
