My name is Whiteligtning - not WhiteligHtning.

I've noticed that a lot of people are still getting my name wrong whenever they've used one of my linearts, even though I've written it in my lineart rules journal.
Please do be a little more observant. This is also partly one of the reasons that I too prefer that you save the link to the lineart and paste it into the description, so you always can see if you've got the right username written.

Yes I know it's a very hard difference to spot, and I'm sorry for that, but when I made this account on an old pc, the H button was malfunctioning a bit and I didn't notice until it was too late, therefore the spelling error. There is already another account named WhiteligHtning. Luckily the account seem to have been inactive since like 2003, so they're probably not bothered by the enormous amount of horse art notifications they've received, haha.



Okay I guess that was all. Sorry for my inactivity. School has been exceptionally bussy these last couple months, and that doesn't seem to change any time in the future. So...Merry Christmas I guess! xD

Does anyone else have any issues when trying to play a youtube video on their phone, which starts with an add?
For some reason the last couple of days it has been almost impossible for me to play any youtube video.
Every time I try, it says that my video will start after the ad. Well.. It doesn't.
The ad plays and all, but after that it doesn't go away, but instead if I try and press play, it will just replay that stupid commercial, and I never get to see any of the actual video I'm trying to see.
Then I keep on trying to refresh the page to try again, but it keeps doing the same thing, so I just keep seeing commercials over and over, hoping that I finally manage to open the video without an ad (which is quite difficult rly!).
Then when I FINALLY get it to play without the ad, it keeps stopping every half second as soon as I press play, over and over, even though it says the whole video is loaded. This is really frustrating. Although I did get it to play by closing down the popup.. play.. video.. thingy? and clicking on the video again to open the popup play thingy again, it did play.. But I was unable to pause it, neither with the remote on the earphones, at the screen aswell..
I rly don't know wtf is going on! xD

I've tried closing the browser, didn't work. I tried turning my phone off/on, that didn't work either.

I had a few issues with it on my Ipad aswell the a couple days ago, where it absolutely refused to play any youtube video at all. The video would be on the screen, but it didn't respond when I pressed play at all. And it was both in the app and in the browser this problem occured. It doesn't seem to have any problems with it today though. Wierd.

I'm using an Iphone 4, and I'm using the browser, not the app, cuz for some reason I don't like the app (I don't rly have the space for it either Sweating a little...)


So I was just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue or maybe anyone knows a fix for it?

It's just frustrating having to use 10+ minutes trying to listen to a song.

Pokemon Meme

6 min read
Bored. So I decided to do this


Rules:

1. Open randompokemon.com/.
2. Switch to "All regions" and "All types".
3. Switch to "1".
4. For each question, generate a Pokémon, and use it as the answer. Then comment about it.
5. PLEASE TAG SOMEONE! This is the only way the meme can get around.
6. Post these rules


1. This is you:
Mesprit
- "Known as “The Being of Emotion.” It taught humans the nobility of sorrow, pain, and joy."

Yeah, alright, sure.

2. This pokemon is your rival
Dialga
- "This Pokémon completely controls the flow of time. It uses its power to travel at will through the past and future."

Well... shit. It control fucking time! I ain't got a chance!

3. This pokemon is deeply in love with you
Electrode
- "It explodes in response to even minor stimuli. It is feared, with the nickname of “The Bomb Ball.”"

Oh boy.. need to be careful not to upset him then :I

4. This pokemon is stalking you
Numel
- "Its humped back stores intensely hot magma. In rain, the magma cools, slowing its movement."

Uuuhm, okay. Hot. But not in a good way. Couldn't it atleast be something cool..

5. This pokemon just stole your cake
Swinub
- "It rubs its snout on the ground to find and dig up food. It sometimes discovers hot springs.", "If it smells something enticing, it dashes off headlong to find the source of the aroma."

It's kinda fitting xD
Either way, doesn't matter who the fuck stole my cake.. they are going to pay!!

6. This is your Lab partner
Dodrio
- "An enemy that takes its eyes off any of the three heads--even for a second--will get pecked severely.", "An odd species that is rarely found. The three heads respectively represent joy, sadness, and anger."

Oooooh great.. 3 heads to bother me and tell me what to do or what I'm doing wrong, but not a single hand to help.

7. This is your best friend
Kyogre
- "A mythical Pokémon said to have swelled the seas with rain and tidal waves. It battled with Groudon."

My best friends is fucking awesome!

8. This pokemon is about to fight you 
Vanilluxe
- "Swallowing large amounts of water, they make snow clouds inside their bodies and, when angry, cause violent blizzards."

And I who hate cold, ugh. And now I'm hungry for icecream, god damnit.

9. This pokemon will do anything to get your shoes
Caterpie
- "For protection, it releases a horrible stench from the antennae on its head to drive away enemies."

Oh dear god no. It can have them! Atleast it will someday turn into a beautiful butterfree..

10. This pokemon is currently hiding in your house
Staraptor
- "It never stops attacking even if it is injured. It fusses over the shape of its comb."

Not complaining, staraptors are pretty cool. But I'm kinda in love with every bird-type pokemon, so yeah.
But why is that thing even in my house? Looking for a comb or something? And how can that huge thing manage to hide here..

11. This pokemon is your pet
Ho-oh
- "It will reveal itself before a pure-hearted Trainer by shining its bright, rainbow-colored wings.", "Its feathers are in seven colors. It is said that anyone seeing it is promised eternal happiness."

The most awesome pet evaar. I am pure-hearted and I will have eternal happiness. I am a dummy! 

12. This is your new roommate 
Buizel
- "It inflates the flotation sac around its neck and pokes its head out of the water to see what is going on."

Could be worse I guess?

13. This is your new boss
Tyranitar
- "In just one of its mighty hands, it has the power to make the ground shake and mountains crumble.", " If it rampages, it knocks down mountains and buries rivers. Maps must be redrawn afterward."

Shit. He sounds like a tyrant (litterly..) Should be careful with this one.

14. This pokemon watches you while you sleep at night
Froslass
- "Legends in snowy regions say that a woman who was lost on an icy mountain was reborn as Froslass."

That's not creepy at all.. I'll never sleep again.

15. This pokemon is scared of you
Herdier
- "This very loyal Pokémon helps Trainers, and it also takes care of other Pokémon."

Great. The dog is scared of me.. but I wanna pet it and just hold it forever and ever and ever..AND WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME?!

16. This pokemon is about to perform surgery on you
Kabuto
- "This Pokémon was regenerated from the fossil of an ancient creature. It protects itself with a hard shell."

A fossil will be doing my surgery. And how will it even be holding the equipment? I'm so screwed. See you at my funeral.

17. You have to babysit this pokemon all night
Durant
- "They attack in groups, covering themselves in steel armor to protect themselves from Heatmor."

NO, ABSOLUTELY NO! EWW!

18. This pokemon loves sleeping on your head
Cacnea
- "It prefers harsh environments such as deserts. It can survive for 30 days on water stored in its body."

But it hurts D:

19. This pokemon envies you
Huntail
- "It lives deep in the sea where no light ever filters down. It lights up its small fishlike tail to attract prey."

It probably envies me for my beauti, cuz it is butt-ugly!

20. Use this pokemon to tag some people
Metagross
- "Metagross is the result of two Metang achieving fusion. When hunting, this Pokémon pins the prey to the ground under its massive body. It then eats the helpless victim using the large mouth on its stomach." - Daaamn!

Metagross says NO and refuses, and I'm not going to argue with that!

Starting to put up a commission journal, for when or if I ever open it up. More will probably be added at a later point.
I'm still pondering over prices and etc, but this is what I have so far.
Please let me know what you think.

There will only be a limited amount of slots open when I'm ready.



How To Commission me

1. Send me a note or comment with all the details on what you want to commission and references needed (if any).
You'll have to rewrite the information when you send in your commission request, just so it's easier for me to find the information again, since it's easy for it to get lost in a sea of comments and notes Sweating a little...

2. When we've agreed, you purchase through the commission widget.
- I won't accept untill I've begun working on the sketch.

3. I will then note you the sketch. (Unless you don't want me to, if you, for some reason, would like it to be a complete surprise?)
- When you're satisfied with the sketch, I'll continue working on the piece. Be aware that I do have a tendency to have quite messy sketches sometimes.

4. When finished, I will upload the commission to dA and note you with a link to your full resolution commission in my stash. The commission will stay in my stash for a couple months before I'll remove them, so remember to download and save them on your own device! (:
Ekstra information regarding the commission:
- You will get the full artpiece with background (if any), but you may also get a PNG form without the background if requested.
- Also, if you ex. you commissioned me a lineart, would like a version of your horse lineart with wings and one without, that can be done aswell, but it is best you tell me beforehand, so I won't have to redraw things. I will not add extra things after I'm done though, unless you pay a couple extra hunred points, depending on how complex.


I am new to all of this, so bear over with me, okay?


Commissions - Closed by SweetDuke





Terms of Service


Payment:

I take payment via the commission-widget only. (So points only it is! )
I won't accept the payment untill I actually start doing the sketch.

Permission & Reposting:

By commissioning me, you allow me to post the finished work on deviantART.

You are allowed to repost and use it wherever and however you'd like, just remember to credit me.

Refunds

If I cancel the commission, for whatever reason there may be, you will get a full refund.





I only accept horses, (No tack) and only digital artwork.

 - Ofcourse that includes all kinds of fantasy horses aswell, wether it has wings, horns or whatever. I'll do my best.
I just have to see how complex the design is first and consider wether I'll be able to make it or not. (I'm not fond of sparkly ponies/horses, as it's quite difficult to draw those in Sai. ^^')
I won't accept tack. I might accept minor extra accesories though, such as necklaces, bracelets and so on, if I'm able to draw it.

Regarding backgrounds on your commission:
They are not my strongest side, but if you're willing, I can try to make you a simple background. I work best if I have almost completely freedom regarding the background, but you could always give me some hints or suggestions to which background colour(s) you'd like. Or I'll pick whatever I think fits the best.
A hint to how your background may turn out, you can see down in my examples, under Flatcoloured with very simple/no background.



Lineart 

Fullbody    ~ 1000 800 points ~ Might add 100-200 points ekstra if complex (wings, horns etc)

Examples:
Look in my gallery for my recent linearts and my most recent art to get examples.
Remember: My commission- and pay-to-use linearts are usually a bit more detailed than my free-to-use ones.



Flatcoloured with very simple/no background:

Fullbody    ~ 1200-1500, depends on how complex.

Examples:
The brightest star of them all by WhiteligtningYHH Winner - Enid by Whiteligtning


Headshot with round frame
With or without simple background  ~ 500 400 points

Will look similar to this:

I've very thoroughly thought about opening up commissions, now that I finally have some time for it, it would be the perfect time to do it.
Note, I've never done commissions before, so I have absolutely no idea of what I'm doing or how the commission widget works I am a dummy! but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it!...I think

I've been thinking of doing a few like these two:
YHH Winner - Enid by WhiteligtningThe brightest star of them all by Whiteligtning
- So flatcolour and with simple background just like these.

I'm also thinking of commissioning a few custom linearts, since I've gotten a few requests.

Now, the thing I'm wondering is firstly, would anyone be interested?

And secondly, what should the price be? What would you be willing to pay? I'd like to get a reasonably price for my effort, since these don't exactly take short time to make. (I'm kinda perfectionist when it comes to making lineart, seriously, I can use several hours on just the lineart because I want it to be perfect and I'm very hard to satisfy, haha.)

So tell me what you think please! Should I do it?
And what should the price be for the two?
