Is anyone else here on CreativePool? I have questions and I can’t get any help from their CS

The more I consider it, the more I’m leaning towards trading in my 2018 iPad Pro for a M2 iPad Air. I just can’t quite bring myself to trading in my MacBook Air just yet. I want options.

@skoobz I have an M1 iPad Air and it's still lovely. Nice little tablet, although like all the iPads I've had, it's sorely underused.

@skoobz I guess it depends on what you use it for. I imagine the M2 Air is a significant improvement over the 2018 pro?

@skoobz I wondered if touch ID might be a pain, but its fine. I have caught myself glaring at it at times, expecting it to recognise my face, the way my iPhone does though haha.

Something that I still can't get my head around on Mastodon... when I click on an account’s "Followers" or "Following" list, I can only see my own profile, maybe a few others if they are on the same instance. Is there any way around this? I feel that it's quite a barrier to finding interesting content 🤔

I'm using Ivory, but I assume it's the same on other clients?

@robb Thanks, I did expect it wasn't an easy thing to achieve. I wonder if it will be something implemented with time.

@bendaubney Thanks! I will take a look! :) @MonaApp

“We noticed you recently tried to sign in to your LinkedIn account from a new device."

No, I didn't try... I succeeded.

And it's not a new device, dumbass platform 😅

@StanWonn They probably don't store device info... or at least, they pretend that they don't lol.

I just posted something on LinkedIn and now I feel dirty.

How long until the marketers slide into my DMs there? 😅

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@mihobu Very true... I don't think most of them read my profile or skillset on there at all! @box464

@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@czottmann Yup, I’m not a fan of it either. It's so very fake.

Anyone have anything fun to talk about today?

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@mentallyalex Thanks, glad you found those pages useful.

Miro is a great collab environment... I use it on just about every project now.

It would be normal for a writer to have input in the illustrative design process, and this would be via feedback and iteration. As far as working with someone on such a project, I think it would depend on how much work is involved as to whether it's a straight hire or if licensing is a better route.

Oh yes, Miro is a better solution than emails for that 😅

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@mentallyalex Well, I would say that licensing is an option. Another way of doing it would be a partnership, with each putting in the effort and funding it, with a share of the reward too. It's not something I've ever done however.

Thanks for your kind words about my work 🙏

Haha yes! Coke but not a Coke lol 🥤

ROFL @ tens of readers! 😅

Oh yes, a high profile author would definitely get my attention... but I imagine my style is worlds away from that theme.

andycarolan,
@andycarolan@social.lol avatar

@mentallyalex Aww, thank you. I appreciate it!

I think sometimes, it's difficult for me to see my work being used in a particular way.

I had not heard of Witchboy, but just did a quick search. Love the art style! Apparently, being made into a Netflix title?
