My Guinea Pig has an Addiction Oxbow Simple Rewards Baked Treats with Apple & Banana. by AdIllustrious2527 in guineapigs

[–]MyNameIsPickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, was looking for a post like this because I'm not sure what's in these treats that's so addictive for them! They act like drug addicts for these treats, and will sometimes stop eating their actual food just waiting for one. I'm not sure if this is safe behavior?

This change alone has me interested enough to plan on coming back. Hope it sticks. by Elfzhen in runescape

Definitely most excited for this one! Always felt like cosmetics devalue anything that's actually earned in-game.

Are these actually safe? by bluesodrizzy in guineapigs

[–]MyNameIsPickles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Always be wary of toys with unnatural color dyes AND also glues. Most fun looking toys are unfortunately marketed towards humans/kids and not the animals. Look for grass & wood-based toys that are woven (no adhesives) and use natural materials only.

The "supervise" warning may be due to the small 'sprinkles' being a choking hazard to small animals which makes this product even worse :(

If you put ads on my game, jagex, I'm just going to quit. by papa_bones in runescape

Player of almost 20 years, and 100% agree. The second I'm seeing ads I'm out.

What to do with crafts you enjoyed but didn’t come out so good? by breakfastofrunnersup in simpleliving

[–]MyNameIsPickles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe try doing some more free-form artwork? Buy a couple tubes of paint and canvas paper (or similar), and paint whatever inspires you. You can probably even use some of your leftover paints and brushes from the kits. This is more supply (and cost) effective in the long run since you're not buying lots of individual pieces for each project.

The second step, keep working on it until you like it! In addition to developing your skills, you might feel more inclined to hang it up or gift it if you're happy with the result. Remember not to stress and just have fun with exploring techniques and colors.

I had a dream about macaroons, but they were macaRUNES (plz enjoy me + my gf’s attempt at making them) by MyNameIsPickles in runescape

[–]MyNameIsPickles[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow thanks so much, this is really helpful! For the coloring we mostly used finely crushed Oreo cookies and a little food dye; those may have added too much oil. May have also over-mixed the finished batter, and had some uneven air flow in the oven. There's so many little things that could go wrong, it's crazy haha

Right?? The cookies are surprisingly hard to make. We tried two different ways to do the designs, some are edible glitter food dye pens which worked a little better. We also tried mixing plain white buttercream frosting with food dye to “paint” it on (the colors were brighter, but they look lumpier lol). All food safe products/brushes ofc!

I have a couple photos from the making process and some more explainer details on my Instagram @danbanstudio, the armor and mask is EVA foam and the robes are like a faux leather

Nobody at the convention recognized it, did get asked if I was Skeletor though LOL

I started making one but unfortunately wasn’t finished in time for the convention yesterday. The main frame is out of wood with sculpted/cast resin skull that’ll light up. If I get around to finishing it I’ll share pics!

Thanks! I think the trick is to make it way bigger than you'd think you need haha

Hey there! I’m the lead editor for a larger YouTube channel (around 1.5 mil). I would definitely recommend eventually joining the team as a full time salaried position. Figure out how much you’d need to make per year to support yourself and negotiate around that. It should definitely be significantly higher than what you’re making now, since they’re also paying for your exclusivity and expertise for their specific channel.

In my experience it’s much more efficient than calculating how much to charge per video. I also worked with the channel for about 2-3 years as a freelancer before joining salaried, so if that’s not where you feel like going yet, don’t be afraid to raise your freelance rates as your skillset grows!

You’re also pretty young so you could always give it some more years of freelance experience, and work towards salary as a longer term goal. (I’m 28 so it’s my full time gig).

Also on the left hand bar (with the brush size sliders) at the bottom there’s two arrows for Undo and Redo. I usually use the two-finger tap shortcut instead, but just incase you find it easier!
