I got tagged by Açu and Maíra to answer some questions. I don't know if my english is 100% correct, so feel free to tell me if you read something wrong. ;)
1. How are you doing?
Today I’m a little bit down, with no reason. x) But I’m feeling fine lately.
2. What’s the meaning of your Flickr nickname?
I’ve always used "Gabrimim", which is "Gabri" from my name, Gabriela, plus "mim", a first person pronoun, that means "me". A few weeks ago I’ve changed my nickname to Gabrie, which is just a part of my name. xD I’m thinking about changing it to Brie, because it’s a cute nickname for Gabriela (better than Gabi, in my opinion).
3. What’s your sexuality?
I’m heterosexual.
4. What’s your fashion style?
I like girly clothes, like high waist skirts and floral vintage dresses, but I must admit that my favourite clothes are pyjamas. xD
5. How collecting dolls influences your life?
Having dolls have changed completely my life. I didn’t have a hobby until then and because of them I discovered a passion for photography. Starting to collect dolls also helped me to pass through a very hard moment of my life (which is not over, but I kinda see a light now), and I've made very special friends. <3
6. What does your family think about you being a doll collector?
Most part of my family think I’m childish and have no interest in my doll photos, but a very few people, especially my little cousin, like my dolls very much. x3
7. What’s your biggest fear?
It may seem a little bit silly, but my biggest fear is not having a real family. I really want to have a nice person by my side and some kids (and dogs, and cats xD) in the future. I don’t have siblings and my relationship with my mom is not so good, so I dream a lot about having my own family.

A Açu e a Maíra me marcaram nessa tag. São apenas algumas questões sobre mim. :3
1. Como você está?
Hoje estou meio pra baixo, sem motivo. x) Mas até que ando bem ultimamente.
2. Qual o significado do seu apelido no Flickr?
Sempre usei "Gabrimim", que é apenas "Gabri", do meu nome, mais "mim", de eu. xD Recentemente mudei para Gabrie, mas estou pensando em mudar de novo pra Brie (pesquisei apelidos diferentes para Gabriela e vi que Brie é bem comum em outros países, e achei fofo).
3. Sexualidade?
Sou heterossexual.
4. Qual é seu estilo?
Gosto de roupas bem menininha, como saias rodadas de cintura alta e vestidos vintage floridos. Mas minha roupa favorita mesmo é pijama. xD
5. Como colecionar bonecas influenciou sua vida?
As dolls mudaram completamente minha vida. Eu não tinha um hobby até então e por causa delas comecei a me interessar por fotografia. Colecionar dolls também me ajudou a passar por uma fase muito pesada na minha vida (que ainda não acabou, mas hoje consigo ver uma luz), e me trouxe amigos muito queridos. <3
6. O que sua família pensa sobre você colecionar bonecas?
A maior parte da minha família vê como algo infantil e imaturo, e também não tem o menor interesse nas minhas fotos, mas algumas pessoas, principalmente minha priminha, gostam bastante. :3
7. Qual é seu maior medo?
Pode parecer meio bobo, mas meu maior medo mesmo é não ter uma família. Não tenho irmãos e minha relação com a minha mãe é bem complicada, então sonho muito em ter alguém ao meu lado e também filhos (e gatos e cachorros xD).
I got a few questions on how to get the frog to sit perfectly without rattling so here's the trick:
The key is to wedge the 1x2 plate's rod into the front of the frog's connection point, then put the 2x2 dome on. It's a perfect fit to sit the frog upright against the front of the dome and the rod.
And for anyone trying to build their own, it's pretty simple, only 13 pieces. The only piece that may not be obvious is: Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with Arm Up (Horizontal Arm Length 6mm)

Recently my friend Bill Storage asked a question in DeletemeUncensored titled "What's Wrong With Flickr." The thread wasn't meant to complain about Flickr but to talk about how Flickr could be improved if one were starting from scratch. I wrote a couple of long responses out to Bill in the thread, but thought that some of the ideas really belonged in a longer-form blog post.
Alot of people give me crap for criticizing Flickr. They ask me why I use Flickr if "hate" it so much. The fact of the matter is that I don't hate Flickr at all. In fact I love Flickr (even if they don't love me anymore). I spend more time on Flickr than any other site on the web. I think Flickr represents the best place on the web for a photographer to share photos today and I think as a whole that Flickr is one of the cultural gems of our lifetime. What's more, a lot of the stuff on Flickr works really, really well and is really really great.
That said, I've always viewed criticism as a positive thing. As something that helps us improve and grow. Hopefully we learn from our critics and hopefully one can view suggestions as opportunities for improvement rather than simple mindless negativity. I blog alot about Flickr because I care about Flickr. I care about photography on the web. I care about the greater Flickr community and I want to see it get better and better. So don't see this list as a bitch list about Flickr, rather see it as some honest ways that Flickr can improve.
1. Improve the process on how account and group deletions are handled. Flickr is increasingly becoming known as a place that deletes accounts willy nilly without warning. Flickr's "Community Guidelines" are notoriously vague (you can be deleted without warning on Flickr for being "that guy" or if Flickr feels that you are "creepy.")
Many of my friends have had their entire accounts deleted for pretty minor offenses that are not specifically prohibited in more specific language in the TOS. In some cases photos with historical significance have been permanently lost. A while back Flickr nuked a group that I administered killing thousands of permanent threads. Thousands of threads by a group with thousands of members. Threads about cameras, workflows, photographic techniques, etc. Institutional knowledge stricken from the web forever.
Flickr really only should nuke accounts or groups as a matter of absolute last resort. They should try to work with their members (especially their long-term and paying members) if they find content that they object to. They should give members opportunities to take self-corrective action before just pulling the plug on their account. If they object to a single thread or a single image, they should just delete that image rather than nuking a user's entire account.
When Flickr nukes a group or an account it says to a user, "I don't respect you or your data." It creates an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty is bad for community.
At Flickr when they nuke your account it is also permanent and irrevocable. There is no undo button. Even if Flickr staff mistakenly deletes an account or if a hacker maliciously deletes your account, there is no getting that data back. It's gone forever.
Flickr could probably very easily create a system where deleted accounts are simply turned completely private and inaccessible from the web without actually removing all of the data. They could then give a user an opportunity to fix whatever they have a problem with in order to get their account turned back on. This would be a far better way of managing community than Flickr does at present.
2. Create a more robust blocking tool. Today at Flickr when you block someone, all it means is that they can't fave or comment on your photos. This is a very weak blocking system. If someone really wants to harass you blocking them does nothing. They can still comment on photos after you do so that their comments show up in your recent activity. They can still follow you around in groups and post things that you're forced to look at etc. Especially with cheap throw away troll accounts this creates unnecessary conflict on the site.
A few years back, over at FriendFeed, they developed a far more robust blocking system. When you block someone on FriendFeed they become entirely invisible to you. Not only can they not comment in your threads, anyplace else they post on the site is made invisible to you. They are wiped off the planet as far as you are concerned.
Now this would accomplish a few things at flickr. First it would give users far more control over eliminating anything that they found personally offensive or negative on the site. You don't like my paintings of nudes from a museum and don't like seeing them when you search for the de Young Museum? Fine. Then block me and you never see any of my content again. You don't like someone who uses language that you find offensive in a group post? Fine, block them as well.
Second though, this sort of tool would encourage more civil interaction between users. If a user creates a troll account and starts behaving badly. They are quickly blocked and become irrelevant. This encourages them not to troll creating a more positive experience for the rest of us.
Many of the personality clashes that occur on Flickr could be avoided if Flickr simply empowered the user to block more robustly.
3. SmartSets. Having to manually construct sets is an incredibly inefficient way to build and maintain your sets. That's why I use Jeremy Brooks' SuprSetr. It's probably the best third-party app ever built for Flickr. Flickr should hire Jeremy in fact as he's doing groundbreaking work here, but that's another topic.
Flickr should consider building SuprSetr technology directly into their Organize section. Let users build sets by keywords. It makes it much easier for users to build and maintain their sets. If I build a Las Vegas set for instance. In the future every single photo of mine keyworded Las Vegas, automatically gets added to this set when I run SuprSetr. Very slick.
4. Better Group thread management. At present Flickr has a very strong and robust Groups section. Here users can create groups (and there are probably literally millions of groups at this point) and talk about whatever they want and post photos into a pool. Games have been created around groups. Businesses have set up groups. Local communities have created their own groups. There are niche groups about anything and everything -- from graffiti in South Florida to a specific neon sign in San Jose. Some groups have more robust discussion threads than others, but all offer this feature.
One of the problems with group threads on Flickr though is that you are constantly losing track of conversations that you are having because you have to manually go to each and every group to check the threads. If I post something in a group, but then don't remember to go back to that specific group and that specific thread, I have no way of knowing if someone has answered my question or commented after my thoughts or whatever.
Flickr should create a page that aggregates all of the group threads that you are participating in or have chosen to follow. This page would encompass all threads from all group in a nice aggregated section. This way if you posted a really important question in a group three months ago that someone has finally got around to answering, you will actually see it, the moment it is bumped to the top of your aggregator.
Flickr should also allow you to hide group threads. Both in your aggregator as well as in the more general group view. If I don't care about the latest Pentax camera (because I'm a Canon 5D M2 owner) I should be able to mute that thread in the group and never see it again. This would also help decrease negative trolling and bumping of threads on the site as offensive threads could just be hidden by a user if they didn't want to see it.
5. Kill explore and replace it with a recommendation system based on your contact's/friends photos. Flickr blacklisted me from Explore a while back after I wrote a negative blog post about actions that someone on their community management team had taken. They capped my photos in it at 666 (cute huh?). But this isn't why I don't like Explore. There's a whole thread called "So I Accidentally Clicked on Explore" in DMU devoted to crappy photos that end up in Explore. The problem with Explore is that it largely shows you photos that you are less interested in. Broad general popular photos of cliches. Sunsets and kittens as the saying goes.
If I choose to follow people on Flickr, I'm probably much more interested in their style of photography or them personally than I am images in Explore. Maybe I'm a graffiti writer and am most interested in graffiti photos. Maybe my thing is mannequins. Maybe I want to see photos of classic cars. Whatever. Instead of presenting the community what Flickr feels is the best of the whole community, show each member the best of their contacts each, day, week, month. I would be far more interested in the photos of people that I actually follow, like, know, etc. Maybe Aunt Edna's photo of her dog will never hit Flickr's explore. But it just might hit my own personalized explore and because I know Aunt Edna and she is my contact, it might be a much more rewarding experience for me to see than say another random dog shot from a user that I don't even know.
Flickr does have a page that shows your contacts most recent uploads, but this page is very limited and only shows the most recent 1 or 5 photos. There is also no way to filter it so that you see the photos that are faved/commented on the most and are likely to be the more interesting photos.
Get rid of Explore and replace it with something that is focused much more on your contacts than people you don't even know. A personalized Explore would be a far more interesting page.
6. Improve Group Search. I have no idea why Group Search sucks so badly on Flickr but it does. Frequently you will search for terms that you've posted in group thread conversations and Flickr will not return the thread where the word exists. I would think that Yahoo! should know a few things about search and am surprised that searching for threads in groups has been so spotty for so many years. I have no idea why this is so bad, but it shouldn't be.
7. Improve Data Portability. Flickr gives lipservice to data portability, but is not serious about it. As long as 99% of Flickr users can't or won't figure out how to move their photos easily to another site they are just fine with things. Functional lock in. The data that we put on Flickr is our data. It belongs to us. We are paying Flickr to hold it for us, but it belongs to us.
Recently my friend Adam wrote up a post on a help forum post about the language Flickr uses for encouraging people to buy Pro accounts. They said that they felt that Flickr is holding your photos hostage (beyond the 200 photo free limit) if you don't upgrade to Pro. Only Pro accounts have access to original images on Flickr.
Flickr should let any member get their photos out of Flickr at any time. Further they should offer competitors API keys to allow them to build service to service direct transfer applications to move your photos to another service if you want. If I don't want to renew my Pro account on Flickr and want to move my photos to Picasa, this should be as easy as me pressing a single button and having all of my photos transfer over.
Today it is very difficult and clunky to get your photos off of flickr. A few third party apps are available, but there are lots of problems with them. They fail if you have too many photos. They are only Windows based, etc. etc. Flickr has functional lock in and holds photos in a silo while talking about how they allow you to get your photos out of Flickr. Flickr should follow the lead of Google here and publicly both state and help make our data more portable. This ought to be part of being a good web citizen today.
8. Uncensor Singapore, Hong Kong, India, Korea, Germany and Maktoob.com. At present Flickr censors content to these places. It's still mind boggling to me that a photo of a painting that I took in the Art Institute of Chicago can't be seen by people in India. Trying to censor the world's web is messy business. Flickr/Yahoo should take a stand for freedom and uncensor these locations. Google last year took a bold step of choosing to walk about from China rather than censor results there. Yahoo should stand for freedom and stop censoring in these places.
9. Let people sell their photos for stock photography. Flickr missed the boat by giving away stock photography to Getty Images. Stock photography is probably the single easiest way for Yahoo to dramatically increase the profitability of Flickr. Getty Images represents a tiny fraction of the images available on Flickr. The Flickr/Getty deal was probably done as a defensive move by Getty more than anything to keep Yahoo out of the multi billion dollar market that is stock photography today. What resulted is that users get a paltry 20% payout for a very small number of their images that can be sold.
Flickr could be a far more formidable competitor to Getty. Flickr has the size and market share to dramatically disrupt this market. The stock photography marketplace is *far* more complicated than this. But oversimplifying things, Flickr should offer two collections for sale (if a user chooses to offer their photos for sale). Cleared photos and uncleared photos. Uncleared photos should pay more to the photographer than cleared photos. Cleared photos would be reviewed by a team of stock photography experts (Yahoo could even buy one of the smaller stock agencies that already has experience clearing images) and result in a lower payout to the photographer. By turning Flickr into the world's largest stock photography agency Yahoo could receive significant revenue from Flickr and Flickr photographers personally could benefit much more from posting their work there.
10. Build a better mobile app. The Yahoo built mobile app for Flickr sucks ass (sorry). As I understand it, it wasn't even developed by the Flickr team. Over at Quora former Flickr Engineer Kellan Elliott-McCrea answers the question, "Why did Flickr miss the mobile photo opportunity that Instagram and picplz are pursuing?" There is no compelling mobile Flickr experience today.
Recently, one of my favorite Flickr photographers, Michael Wilbur, deleted his entire Flickr account and is now one of the most popular photographers on Instagram. Flickr needs to develop a more compelling mobile experience. Part of this should be a very easy way to view group threads via mobile.
There you go. Food for thought. And keep on flickering.
April has come, bringing with it another season & that includes my Overgrowth Series. This along with two other habitats depict green living, in which spaces throughout an existing home adapt & let in the beauty of nature.
This beginning bedroom nook brings in several fun playful toys and decorations to fill in the space and showcase what it might be like for someone to adapt this concept into their own quarters.
The habitats you will see in this series are based off the digital works of Mia Boas which are lovely studies for balanced nooks. I recommend you check out her work to get inspired yourself. 😊
Follow along with two other pieces that asks the question of how living can not only be fun, but also including nature at ones own living space. 🌳
“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.
Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language.
Do not now look for the answers. They cannot be given to you because you could not live them.
At present you need to live the questions.
Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answers, some distant day."
Rainer Maria Rilke

To answer some questions.... It is a small whirlpool maybe 12 to 18 inches across. The clouds were reflected in the water at sunset time, thus the orangish cast. This is not permanent. It is in some very shallow flood waters. It flooded on both sides of a gravel road, and I suspect one side was lower than the other, and some sort of siphon effect caused the water to be sucked under some rocks, gravel and road to the other side. When the flood waters recede, it will be nothing but a memory. There are lots of little holes due to burrowing animals, and some sections of the land being softer then others. Obviously I am not a water expert, but I think this gives the idea.
I just though it looked pretty cool.

Hello my friends todays painting is from one of my memories of Olongapo City, Philippines .my visit to Olongapo was special in many ways.Since I was in the navy at the time it was a chance to get the hell off the ship (U.S.S Callaghan DDG-994) google it haha I was a plankowner of that ship which meant I was part of the first crew on board which was a destroyer,anyway time to write about the the most exciting town in the Orient. The stories I heard about this place before even stepping foot off the ship were amazing,lets just say I was happy to be a single guy, this was my chance to experience what had become legendary - a night in Olongapo. For the bar owners it meant money, and lots of it. And for the Filipinos employed at the various clubs it meant not only income, but often the chance to meet the right guy and, if they were so disposed, to start the move eastward. the famous line of I love you Joe no sh&t take me back to the states was a line I heard almost every night, not me but some sailors actually got married to some very beautiful Filipino women, just walking down the streets would cause women to flock outside to you grabbing your arm like your some kind of rock star, to them you were rich, which is certainly not the case as everyone knows service men and women don't make jack squat really, but to them yes your rolling in the doe,its really a sad situation looking back on it the way alot of people and especially woman have to live but at the time being a young punk with a bunch of like minded navy men out to get drunk we were in heaven,at least in the minds of a bunch of young punks,another thing I remember is before you came into town you had to go over a little river known simply as the "Sh&t River." only a sailor could of thought up that name , but it was fairly appropriate given that raw sewage from the town was often dumped into it. Boys in little, flimsy boats beckoned from below the bridge, telling passers-by to throw pesos or centavos into the river. When a coin did get thrown, the boys would dive into the filth and somehow retrieve the coin. The navy eventually tried to discourage this practice by putting a fence along one side of the bridge. which is a good thing because no telling how many diseases one could get from such a practice,once in town and in a bar Most of the Filipinos who worked in bars, did not consider themselves prostitutes. In many ways this was true.
A bar fine worked like this: if a guy sat at a bar and got to talking to one of the girls behind the counter, he could ask her to leave the bar with him. The girl had the option of saying yes or no, though the bar owner or mama-san would often discourage refusals. Still, girls could, and did, refuse invitations by servicemen to go out on the town. This was one aspect of the barfine which distinguished it from prostitution. lucky for me Im a good looking guy and women would often want to pay me hahah sorry I guess I still have some of that navy jackass in me, just joking,any how
If the girl was agreeable, however, there would be a fine. Technically, you were not paying for the girl. In fact, the money you paid to the bar was to compensate the owner of the bar for the loss of the girl's work that night. This is because most of the girls worked for little or nothing other than tips. So if you wanted to deprive the bar of what was essentially free labor, you had to at least compensate the owner for the loss. Thus the "fine."
Granted, the girls did normally receive half of the fine. But this was merely a bonus paid by the bar to the girl for bringing it repeat business. Barfine amounts depended upon the bar. In the 1980's, barfines at the flashier places could go for as much as 500 or even 600 pesos a night - about $30 to $40 US. In the smaller bars fines averaged 400 pesos and sometimes even less. So what did a barfine get you? The only thing a patron was guaranteed was that the girl would be allowed to leave the bar with him. This came as a rude shock to some Olongapo newcomers, who assumed that the fine ensured him of a night of sex. It did not. True, the girls were highly encouraged by the bar owners to consent to sexual requests, and the girls themselves sometimes did so simply to ensure another barfine the next day, but the girls were not obligated to do anything. On most first "dates" the best you could hope for was a kiss, unless the girl was an unabashed "professional." Most were not, however. Most were girls from villages or other islands who served customers drinks most of the night, but who suffered the indignity of wearing a one piece bathing suit every hour or so in order to keep their jobs. They did this in order to make a few pesos for their family, and more often than not, in order to find a nice American guy who was marriage material so that she and her family might actually have a future of some kind. These Filipinos tended to cluster together in groups for safety and solace, If concrete relationships were established, a serviceman could sometimes buy a lifetime barfine from the bar. This would be a large, flat fee paid to the bar to ensure that the girl would always be available for the payee. Some of the girls liked this arrangement because of the implied commitment, and because it often served as an excuse on their part not to accept barfines from men they didn't find attractive. Note that a lifetime barfine did not necessarily prohibit the girl from accepting barfines from other men,especially if your ship pulled out even for a few days, and it did not carry over if the girl quit one bar and began working at another. Also, most of the girls were hopeless romantics. From the start most of them made it clear that they were not sexual partners. They were girlfriends, or "honey-ko's." You would take them dancing and out to eat and give them everything else which a girlfriend was due. She would meet your friends, and your friends' girlfriends, and you would take vacations together (for example, to Baguio). You might meet her family (usually an awkward affair).. Those pre-port fantasies of choosing a different girl every night would evaporate for most guys. If you decided to take out another girl, your own friends would question why you were "cheating" on your girlfriend, and you could bet that the "Filipino Network" was working at lightspeed to get word of your infidelity to the right parties. Despite their most stubborn efforts to remain a "playboy," sailors and Marines usually found themselves in relationships. Which implied - yes - commitment! It was a very humbling experience.
When the ships pulled out, that was a time of tears and promises. The girls who had found boyfriends would cry, the girls who had not welcomed the arrival of new ships and new hope. Promises were made by the sailors and Marines to come back, to write, to remain faithful...promises normally broken. Not always.Im pretty sure the navy no longer has a base there after many years and with the service men gone I have no idea how that place is now, after all even with all the crazy stuff that went on alot of money was pouring into that little city every night from servicemen around the world,
fun little collab between us all. I wanted more people in on this, but on well!

Hello, ladies and gentlefigs!
If you're wondering why there is a variety of Batman characters surrounding a webcam in front of a physical backdrop, well, wonder no more! Also, congratulations on missing the title of the photo entirely! All sass aside, I am putting out a casting call for the purposes of making a brickfilm to upload to my youtube channel, BaneShake. I have made a small handful of stop-motion films over the last couple of years, just with basic equipment and mostly just for fun, although there were a couple made to enter into "just for fun" contests. However, I'm wanting to step up my game- thus the new webcam- and doing so means I'm going to want more voices than just my own.
This is where this comes in; right now, I am specifically casting these characters (Harley Quinn, Riddler, Catwoman, Robin, Catman, Batman, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Two-Face, Penguin, and Deadshot) for a standalone video. This will be something of a loving parody, and each character has only one or two lines a piece.
If you are interested in voicing any of the characters, send me a message on here, and I'll be very glad to discuss things further with you on an individual basis, such as specific things I'm looking for in each role. Additionally, while I am only needing this selection right now, I am also keeping an eye out for talent in future projects,DC comics and unrelated, both comedic and serious. So even if I don't cast you here, I may have offers for you down the road. Feel free to message me if you have any questions, too; you don't have to feel pressured or obligated to participate if you do decide to message me.
Until next time, happy building!

Kemi Badenoch asked the perfect question on Iran at Prime Minister’s Questions today: why is Britain stopping the arrows not the archer? It cut through the fog and exposed the incoherence of the Labour Government’s position. Why intercept projectiles rather than confront the hand that fires them?
Keir Starmer does not have a settled position on Iran. Over the weekend, he changed his mind on allowing the US to use RAF bases. Yesterday, he authorised the deployment of a Royal Navy warship to protect Cyprus after RAF Akrotiri was struck by a drone. It should arrive in time for Christmas.
