I'm writing a novel and I want to draw my characters. I don't know how to. What do I do?
As someone that’s been drawing since i was like 5 i hear this a lot. Gonna tell you what i tell everyone else, just draw. Yes, yes they will not look the way you want them to, that’s fine. It really only takes about a year to get even decent. If you really work at it you can actually get really good in a year.But for now don’t worry about that, just put your pencil on the page and draw. Far as the art distracting from your words. Light Novels are literally novels with pictures, so don’t let that stop you. That said I’ll leave you some youtube links to drawing channels. Each one of them has been at it for ages and should really help.Draw with Jazza - Does cartoon styles and superheroes mostly.Mark Crilley - His focus is manga but has a wide variety of videos to learn from.Sycra - Very anime influenced style but will teach you digital painting and drawing.Proko - If you want to learn traditional methods or realism this is your guy.Jason Brubaker - Comic focused style but he takes the time to really explain what he’s doing and why.Really hope that helps good luck & take care.EDIT: some clarity
What is it called when painting or drawing a picture or someone?
like when you paint a picture of someone, its called a ___ of them. what is that blank? i keep wanting to call it a mural, but i know that's wrong, so what is it called when the art is of a real person?

This will change your cursor into a drawing pencil and you can draw free hand using this now.(It will be a curvy line shaped icon, if you hover over it, it says 'Scribble')
I want to use Zazzle to sell products that I design, but I do not know how to determine copyrights.?
Copyright is a VERY complex issue and their are lawyers that specifically deal with it. I am not a lawyer, and I must tell you I am not giving you any legal advice. As for pictures you find on Facebook and other websites... many of them are most likely copyrighted by someone somewhere. But you have to be either very unlucky, or be making money on the image. There is a lot of copyright violations that go on that people ignore for various reasons. Now, some pictures you see online might have a creative common license (Philosoraptor is an example of this), this means you can use the image as long as you credit the original creator. However, finding what type of license every image has can be difficult if not impossible. Remember, derivative works are also covered under copyright. So any changes you make have to be enough where there can not be any likelyhood of confusion. Anyways, to answer the question I think you want to know Will anyone sue you for using the images: Probably not, unless you're making a lot of money on it. Will Zazzle let you actually use the images?: Maybe, depends on what they are. They have not always been the most diligent in this area. I should add. Copyright is technically happens once a work is made. So as soon as you draw something, or write something it is automatically copyrighted. Now, this does not mean it has protection, for that you would have to register the copyright. Also, you should know this but you obviously just can't take something you find online and use the image as it is unless it has a creative common license as stated earlier. This is plagiarism AND copyright infingement I believe Haiku Deck filters to creative common pictures which you can use (as long as you reference the original.) Another thing is simply referencing the copyright does not make it legal to use. You're essentially just admitting your stealing. Since Haiku deck is used for presentations it MIGHT be considered to be educational (which falls under free use) but this is a jury question based on in what it is used in. Another tidbit is that things like the internet and electronic copyrights are still heavily debated.
My 16 year old daughter is drawing disturbing pictures in her sketchbook; what should I do?
I have a 16 year old daughter and lately she's been sketching things nonstop. She goes down to her room for hours at a time to listen to music and draws and draws and draws. She recently told me that she's interested in creating a graphic novel to combine her writing and drawing talent. One day she left her sketchbook upstairs on the counter, so I skimmed through it, and there were some pretty creepy drawings in there. There a lot of normal pictures, like a drawing of our cat sleeping, wolves, soldiers, people hugging, birds, etc. but there's also dark stuff, too; really, really detailed zombies with their flesh hanging off their faces, emaciated people who look contorted in pain, there's a drawing of a man on his knees pleading for his life while a gun is being pointed at him. My daughter is very creative and generally open, cheerful and good-natured, not a very moody person, but it's still kind of freaking me out a little bit. She's drawing people getting their heads bashed in with shovels, and people getting shot in the head. Weird, right?! What do I do? They're pretty good sketches, too, so I don't know if I should say anything.
On Snapchat, how can you upload a picture out of your gallery to your story?
Yes you can. Go into your gallery and click the options menu and your gonna see share. After you click it you'll see a list of apps you can share it to but just click on snapchat and then you'll get the option to edit the picture if you need to. To put the picture on your story you should click the arrow on the bottom right corner of your screen and then you'll see all your snapchat friends who you can send it to but ignore that. Either my story will be on the top or you have to scroll down your friends list to find my story but when you do just click on it and it will be added to your story.
Need information about a Drawing Tablet?
I'm just going to agree with the previous answers about Wacom and usage of drawing tablets. Just letting you know, though, Walmart does not sell tablets in-store, however you can order them from the website. They only really sell the bamboo tablet, smallest size, without the mouse, for a little less than $70. The size is small, in my opinion, but alright if you're just starting out.
