Rant: v. to speak or shout at length in a wild impassioned way:
she was still ranting about the unfairness of it all

PS:
Twiliwolf is a hotheaded person, she gets frustrated at many things easily though usually wont say anything, letting it out here helps but she will get irritated and it will ruin her day if you leave rude comments. You can disagree, but its probably the one case where she wont beg for comments on the matter.

A deviantart Rant

I know its been a while since I've been on and I know it might not be the best idea to start with a rant but I need to get this out of my system and I'll do my best to be civil about it.

THIS PISSES ME OFF

if you're confused let me elaborate:
Bases are a blank figure, doll or drawing ment to be lazy bucket tooled or scribbled on in MS paint.

I'm not nearly as mad at the users of bases as I am the creators of them. All the creators of bases I've seen have said "source me in your piece" demanding that there be a link back to their original base in the creation. The word Original shouldn't even be used here. Anyway what I find amazing about this is 90% of these bases come from Lion King, Balto, *insert anime here*. Do these Base creators ever source the Anime/movie/manga/comic/etc? no. but they DEMAND you source them.
Also i just find it appalling that theres a no stealing law on Deviant art and people get away with this.
People who use bases often say "but I use it to learn!" or "I don't have a tablet!" or "I only have ms paint. Honestly those are crap excuses:
1: tracing is fine when it comes to learning but should NEVER be submitted as your own thing. Its a tool, you don't make an amazing wood carving and submit the chisel or nails do you?
2: you could always use your freaking hands and a pencil maybe?! and if you don't have a scanner use a camera, honestly it works just as good if you do it right.
3: amazing things can be done in MS paint. go on youtube and see. and if you're still not convinced there are tons of open source (free) art programs out there!

TL;DR?
Bases are stealing
but they're okay for learning
as long as you don't post them as your own
so don't be a b*tch
