LowBird

The exploration of the inner caverns of my imagination with the chance to see rare sights of intellect and wisdom.

Yo guys

How do people share photos from flickr that have copyright licenses on them?

So I have recently discovered a singer who goes by the name ‘Daughter’. She is fantastic. But this post is not about how fantastic she is.

I find her on youtube, I want to share it on tumblr. I search ‘daughter’ in the search box. I am presented with photos and gifs of dicks, vaginas, rape scenes and hard core sex.

The amount of porn tagged with ‘daughter’ is disgraceful. Jesus christ.

You can get a very traditional portrait done or as outlandish as you can dream. Zombies, Hipsters, Pirates, Ninjas, Superheroes, Robots, etc. are all fair-game themes in which you can have yourself transmogrified in painted form. ADDITIONALLY, I’ll be giving 3 runner-ups their choice of a 13”x19” signed velvet archival print. Choices are: Sherlock, Ron Swanson, and Inspector Spacetime. How to Enter: FACEBOOK: Simply comment on the following facebook post. You get an extra entry if you click the “share” button and post it to your wall. ( Sam Spratt - Facebook Contest ) TWITTER: Follow http://twitter.com/#!/SamSpratt and tweet the following phrase verbatim on twitter:  “ Entering to win a custom portrait #painting from @samspratt’s portrait contest! https://www.facebook.com/sam.spratt ”   This also counts as an entry. TUMBLR: Just reblog/like this post! How long this will last: This contest will run until April 6th, 2012.  You all are the best! Good luck and thanks again to all who follow my little slice of artwork on the web. NOTE: You must be a follower or subscriber at the time of the win.  Why all this? Well, you’ve gotta write a big check with quite a few zeros at the end of it to commission art from me—and call me crazy, but I firmly believe that in a perfect world, people *should* get to own art AND do things like “pay rent”, “eat food-like substances on occasion”, and maybe even “continue to live”. Two of you can do that, the rest of you… you’re screwed. Sincerely, <3 Sam

Oh tumblr, how I miss thee…

So, I am no longer an au pair, I have a friend from Australia with me, we are about to embark on a two week Europe trip and then flying back home to Australia.

I haven’t seen the end of the tumblr scroll in a while, and I won’t be on tumblr until ages after I get home.

This makes me sad.

In other news, 2 WEEKS UNTIL I AM HOME!

Can anybody tell me how to search for more than one tag at a time on tumblr?

Ha ha ha BURN

Ha ha ha BURN

Bloody hell google.

I just did a quick google search of ‘lowbird’ because when I chose it as a tumblr name it was just a random thing and I thought it sounded cool.

According to urbandictionary.com it means a noob.

Bugger.

Should I change my name or keep as is?

Disconcertion:

It sneezed then clawed me all the way down my belly and my legs. I am wearing a hoody and jeans and it drew blood.

How the hell does one reply to replies on tumblr? It seriously shits me!

I need your opinion please.

I have a new camera (new as in second hand of course) and am interested in taking up photography as a hobby. Instead of cluttering this tumblr with my cruddy skills, I was thinking of making a new tumblr where I just post my photos with the hope that people would give me tips on how to improve.

Would it be worth it? Would you follow my progress? Or could you care less?

Ok this new tumblr layout is really starting to shit me.

Change back please.

+1 follower, -1 follower

Every day this week, my follower count has gone up to 54, then down to 53, then back up to 54, then back down to 53.

Not sure how that makes me feel :S

I love nice even numbers.

I love nice even numbers.

Woah!

So apparently when you post a cool pic of Optimus Prime as a child, it starts off being slowly reblogged and liked by my followers. When it falls into the hands of geekart.tumblr.com, reblogs go sky high and my email goes nuts with notifications.

Do I feel famous or what?!
