I guess I should be flattered…maybe. This is a new account for me because my old account was linked to twitter, which I quit some time back.
I have been using Krita to make tiled fabric on spoonflower. It is not profitable (maybe because I am not good at it)I have spent far more money getting proofs than I have sold, but it is relaxing and I enjoy the thought of something I make becoming something durable that someone appreciates. They have a weekly contest and this week I was kicked out this week for allegedly using AI (I honestly recommend you try it for fun, it is free).
Anyway it was me, Krita and Gmic, not AI. I started out with a traditional watercolor that I photographed and then imported into Krita. I made the background digitally, then I manipulated the shapes of the moths and flowers using the math functions in Gmic. I posterized so it would print better and I layered in a couple of other filters ( I usually try a bunch and see what makes me happy), but I am not sure If should be flattered or offended
I just had to vent here, because I miss complaining on twitter. Ironically this is probably going to be scraped and added to some AI dataset. lol/fml… I have been having trouble passing the captchus lately so maybe they know something I do not. The future is here babies. I am not ready for it.
