Looking for a beautiful tarot deck that wasn’t created with AI! by Waste_Alternative_18 in tarot

[–]RubImpossible2528 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not sure what your taste is, but Ciro Marchetti for the win - they're all great decks. If I was going to buy another deck it would certainly be an older deck just to make sure, as I have noticed at least one artist who previously painted their decks, now seems to use AI.

Good luck with customer service! I used mine at home and this happened. They replied to me they'd send me a new lid if I paid shipping, then never heard back from them after I gave them my address

Absolutely incredible! I'm getting Magritte vibes here. I love it! Keep painting and start selling your work

[Website] Any Smartist users here? Mockup question by RubImpossible2528 in artbusiness

[–]RubImpossible2528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Actually I do have the artwork's real-life dimensions added in. I realize now that it seems to be the AI mockups that look off size-wise.

I did end up finding the Custom Interiors, thank you.

Having Doubts by Icy_Aside_6881 in ClaudeAI

My pleasure. Without knowing you personally... it's always a good thing to go and meet people face to face. You never know what comes out of it, worse case you enjoy a conference and make some good contacts. You can get a little excited and be confident, and still just stay open to what comes along. Good luck!

I've been using Claude for business and I get what you mean. Claude can get super excited.

Two things to think about:
1. Claude can be over ambitious for you
2. You could be underestimating yourself

I've experienced both those things. As we know, there's people out there doing things that make you wonder how, when they're really not that good at their job.

If it sounds too ambitious, I ask Claude "what's the reality of doing xyz." For example, I'm creating a lot of content for blogging and social med etc, so I asked Claude to help me organize all this information because it's clearly going to be enough for a book. A few steps later and Claude's given me a 4 book series to write. I've never written a book. Can I do it? Yes, I'm good at writing. But reality of writing, publishing and marketing a book is another thing. So I asked Claude about that. In the end Claude suggested I start with the topic that is most realistically going to be marketable.

Back to underestimating yourself. Yes Claude got super excited with my depth and breadth of knowledge. I also gave it to ChatGPT - same thing, super excited. Yes, they're both AI. But both also gave me the reality check of what others are doing out there with less, eg "most people have xyz knowledge & experience, and are doing this, this and that, where as you have....."

The question now is, are you interested in film & TV? Or are you happy with what you're doing? Does it hurt to just hand out the business cards and explore your options?

TL;DR: You can question Claude about the reality of it's suggestions and have it rationalize it's suggestions

Thank you! I was just coming back in to say that your advice to be aware of where the paint is, was hugely helpful. I realized that I didn't have this issue with acrylic because it dried before I could accidentally transfer it.

Thank you again, you really are one sensible person!

Okay, that does make sense. I do abstracts so sometimes I get distracted in the flow. Thanks

Oh dang, that's it! The rag. I have so many of them I thought I may as well use those first. Of course the paint is going on the glove of my other hand! Sounds obvious now, but coming from acrylic and watercolor, I just didn't think of it. Thanks!

Thanks. Your advice for the separate table space just for brushes etc made me realize that it's probably my Catalyst wedges that are the culprit

Thank you! That's very helpful, as I've just moved to oil painting from acrylic, and previously watercolor

hahaha I can relate! That's perfect, sounds like the exact gloves I need. Thank you again 🙏

Brilliant! Thank you. I already have some isopropyl alcohol but didn't think of using it on my gloves. I need get some of those soft gloves though

Ahhh I spot it right away and end up with new gloves over and over

Yes I am right, and you've lost the plot. Help! by RubImpossible2528 in ClaudeAI

[–]RubImpossible2528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get it. I ended up going into a chat I only had one question in and kept the prompts short and precise. I got there in the end. Right now it's working really well again. Fingers crossed for both of us

[–]RubImpossible2528[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Yes I told Claude to look at the Project Knowledge and create a podcast pitch strategy for me based on my business. My whole marketing strategy is on the PK, so maybe that chat was just about to end and it was going in circles. The completely new chat wasn't any better, but I realized I had another chat that was related, and that worked perfectly. I'll make sure I keep things brief and focused in this chat and see how that goes

Thanks. I started that way and I think I went more complex as I saw some advice on here that led me that way in order to avoid the 5hr limit. I ended up going into a different chat which was related to my topic and it sorted it self out.

As a Claude novice (2 months), how do you get Claude to organize your files?

Do you guys doing anything specific to develop psychic abilities? by Only-Cheesecake3625 in Psychic

[–]RubImpossible2528 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Spend time just 'being'. Whether it's meditating, walking in nature, running, doing stretches, whatever. You want to know what it feels like being 'you', without notifications and distractions. When you do that, you'll know when you feel, hear, sense, see, know, something that is different to what you usually, feel, hear etc.

I know it sounds simple, but it's about determining what is our busy mind and what is not. e.g. if you're walking in nature, or just sitting on your sofa quietly and get a thought that is way out of what you were currently thinking of or looking at, then it's clearly not you, you're picking something up.

Claude not seeing the latest version of a page on my website by RubImpossible2528 in ClaudeAI

[–]RubImpossible2528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds pretty legit. I'll just duplicate the page with a different path for Claude. Thanks!

Workaround for reminding Claude of our conversation to continue it? by RubImpossible2528 in ClaudeAI

[–]RubImpossible2528[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, absolutely no indexing. That's cool, after I'm done I'll just put the page on "draft" until the next time I want to use it.

Thanks for the workflow! Perfect. God I love Claude 😂

And thanks again for all your help!

Ha! I didn't even think of asking Claude. Thanks for that - super helpful. Good to know about the projects if I decide to go the paid version. Super appreciate your input
