PMC! Soooo, I have good news and "bad" news!

Good news, the Creator Analytics update is ready but the bad news is the timing isn't right to launch. I have some IRL things happening that require my undivided attention. All good things though, so no worries there. It's just best to wait until things are settled so that I can return the same attention to the update and you.

Creator Analytics WILL release next month! It took longer than initially expected for a number of unexpected reasons but scope of work also grew in many directions for the best. There's always more to do after the launch but there's more than enough to be useful and fun now and into the foreseeable future and historical past interests. Always nice when things motivate you to go, go, go. Didn't help switching chart libraries last week but know it was the right decision for the short and long run.

You'll see soon and I'm looking forward to having the proper time to respond to bugs and feature requests.

Back from traveling, and super happy to read the comments on Sketchbook Journey. II! Even though I have uni during April, I noticed that I will be traveling out every weekend because of my research. Gonna be a bit difficult to draw – but good thing "difficult" does not mean impossible :D

Will be out traveling this weekend, so woke up at 4am to finish the last two pages of Sketchbook Journey. II. Therefore I finished the last two pages this morning, and pushed scheduled the upload to today!



I'll be back on monday. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Kinda hard for me to believe that this was 4 months ago



I will be out traveling this weekend, but bringing my laptop and drawing equipment along so that I can make the final drawing on day 120 and post it on the same day (Sunday, 7th of April). In the mean time – here is a sneak peek from Sketchbook Journey. II – spending 120 days learning to draw!

I'll just go ahead and say what I think: Tremendous effort like this, needs some well deserved attention!

My own profile has kind of become a more art-oriented page, so I feel like this amazing animatic by a fellow PMC-creator, fits right in to the kind of stuff I think you'd enjoy as much as I enjoyed it (I mean, just look at those drawings that make up the animatic!)

(also go subscribe to cheyko, they post really cool art that is worth your time)

Do you think that PMC has CIA agents who have used this site in order to hide their secretive conversations, in the same way that one can use a Minecraft server to hide and share secret information, with almost no possible traces to the existence of set conversation / information?

*Looks suspiciously at DreamWanderer*

Hi PMC, hope you're having a great weekend!

After a roller coaster ride of locating, merging, migrating and auditing massive amounts of data (nearly a billion records), I'm back on crossing off front-end features until remaining tasks are down to launch preparation. The bulk of the work is done, last 10% requires pushing through and eventually leaving some ideas for post launch.

Just going to drop several work in progress screenshots from various analytics sub-pages and let them do the talking:

That's a lot of people! Thank you so much, it makes me super excited to post pt. 2 of Sketchbook Journey on the 8th of April :D

I need name suggestions!
This is the first time I have ever created an OC, and while I have fleshed out most of her personality, I really want the community to name her, since you have been such a big support of my sketchbook journey series!

(Personality description below the picture)



Species: Demon
Occupation: Owner of a bookshop

Personality:
[​Name] is an excitable, optimistic, and deeply passionate individual, particularly when it comes to the world of literature. She presents herself as approachable and unassuming, often donning a simple dress paired with a modest shirt beneath, eschewing makeup. Despite her tranquil demeanor, [​Name] harbors an intense curiosity, often venturing beyond the confines of her bookshop in pursuit of rumored discoveries. While possessing a strong sense of justice, she tends to steer clear of entanglements in others' dramatic affairs. However, when faced with injustice or adversity, [​Name] often tries to correct it from the shadows, only reluctantly tapping into her demonic powers, using the obsidian plates she carries, as the last resort.

Her abilities afford her mastery over three eternal flames and the shadows they cast. She uses the obsidian plates to shape these shadows, creating strong shadow puppets that can interact with the world around them. [​Name] Conceals these flames within lanterns scattered throughout her bookshop, so that her powers remain discreet, leaving visitors not to question her true nature. This practical approach to life, honed from her experiences evading trouble, underscores her adaptability to survive in any environment. Yet, as the (to her knowledge) only demon to have escaped the underworld, [​Name] finds that trouble has an uncanny knack for finding her, despite her efforts to avoid it.

Did a quick round of updates to the banners of my blogs. Made them more consistent, easier to read and more appealing to look it compared to the old squares:

I'm working on our Creator Analytics update and while it has grown in scope, it's more interesting and useful than I first imagined.

Here's a sneak peak of just the top half of a random members analytics widgets!

Each widget has a full page view that allows for an in-depth exploration of its data and insights. You will have the flexibility to navigate through various time frames, extending back to the inception of your membership or the publication date of your content, depending on the specific context. Relevant content, notifications and more will be readily available to explain and learn more about your analytics.

Still not sure when it will be ready but every day, it's getting closer :P
