About

ABOUT: Cut and paste. Magazines. Watercolors. Inks. Bad polaroids and fake photography. Overpriced moleskines and composition notebooks. We run to paper instead of people, and sometimes... we get tired of just plain words. Sometimes we need badly drawn portraits and the things we see inside our heads when we'd rather not see at all. This for the girls and boys who keep journals and diaries, for the ones who gave up on locking them up. We're here to share. Give us some inspiration, or come find your own.

GUIDELINES
001. Please use an lj-cut if you're images are on the larger end (usually 500x500 or bigger)
002. We also ask that you use an lj-cut for text-only posts.
003. Nudity and bad language are allowed.
004. "DRIVE BY ADVERTISING" for shops, products, etc, is not allowed. Members MENTIONING shops in a post with journal images they are sharing with the comm are fine.
005. More art, less talk here. Please check our tags section for FAQ (this community boasts YEARS of questions and experiments). If you have seriously looked and not found your answer, ask away.
006. Feel free to tag your own entries to help with 005. If you would prefer not to be included in tags, please message [info]reqbat or [info]cornykoreannerd <3
007. Please don't disable comments to your posts; it kills the community vibe.

MODS: [info]cornykoreannerd and [info]reqbat. Old moderators: [info]ohcholera (currently MIA) and [info]brazil (journal is dormant but can still be reached through messages).

CONTACT INFO If you have questions, need help, or need the maintainer/mods to intervene in a problem with another user message [info]cornykoreannerd, [info]reqbat, or [info]brazil.
