I forgot about this thread. It's great to see that you continue to rescue homeless animals, I really appreciate what you're doing and I would like to help you somehow, but don't know how. Maybe you can post your Bitcoin address and I'll send you small donation. Maybe it won't be much, but enough to buy some food for them.

Thank you so much for your generosity. Right now we have 1 kitten , 3 cats , 1 dog and we are paying for overstay of 1 mom dog and 9 puppies.

Even a little bit would be amazing, please note , I would publicly post the transaction, how much was encashed , the receipt of the food, plus with the pictures of the food/medicines.

Along with it the campaigns are helping me a lot to help these animals in need and I believe I will continue to do it.



This is the new cat I found today , someone threw her and she was sitting on the road waiting for her owners and we thought she is a street cat and left her alone , but we saw her everyday and today we finally brought her home.

So we have another beautiful persian cat for adoption.

Please do state:
-your name and telegram maybe ? So that I can send you pictures of your funds being used for them.

This is the address if someone wants to donate for their food/medicines. Or maybe adopt a pet online/fund for him/her. { I am still a student thus I have super limited funds but I cannot just leave them like that }

Our house is a funny place right now 😂

I think he is from Ukraine Mate,because i also wanted to adopt 2 but sad that He was too far from my place.
I see, that's really far from here, the animals will get too much stress if they are shipped to other countries. And yeah, I've also been looking for puppies to adopt for almost a month now, can't afford to buy some quality dogs LoL.

We do have many animals with us , a lot of them. Some even belong to high end breeds but unfortunately people throw them away which I still don't understand the reason of.

We have amazing puppies with us, you can tell me your country maybe ?

*I understand the shipment problem especially during pandemic but if animals are getting ready for a house near maybe this country then after the passport, they can be even manually given to the person who wants them, through car rides*

We have done this 2-3 times.

-Italy
-Poland

These two countries I have many friends from who are familiar with the shipping and such , so it would not be a very expensive thing. At the same time *you would be saving life of someone* which is the most beautiful thing.

_*_

For countries which are far away I believe I can suggest you guys to check out your shelters. Plus it's not wrong to adopt a big dog contrary to popular belief. They are more loving, more caring and understands more.

If you cannot adopt one of them ? It would be immensely appreciated if you would go to your nearest shelter and get in contact with them.
2383  Economy / Economics / Re: Australia to Spend $575M on Tech Including Blockchain to Boost Pandemic Recovery on: October 07, 2020, 04:10:37 PM
Honestly half a billion dollars is nothing considering it is a whole nation that is putting up this money, just to give you an example USA has printed more than 4 trillion dollars and given that away to companies and people, 4 trillion vs 500 million, consider that.

I know the story here is that we are going to see blockchain investments in this as well but that will not have any sort of price change for us neither, we have a lot of trade every single day, hundreds of millions even in billions so having just one blockchain investment for once doesn't really change much to us neither. It is nice news obviously to know that they are looking at blockchain as something good and investable which is a nice gesture but it is just a psychological good thing and will not have real changes.

Exactly
What did USA achieve till now ?
Have the pandemic started getting better there both economically and psychologically?
Have the people who received money 💰 from the government able to still go on with their loans, tasks ?

The government needs to understand a very basic thing: Charity for people is a good thing (especially when the elections are there )

But we have to look for a better solution.

They have to get people jobs.
They have to make sure work be shifted online.
People who are not familiar with the IT sector needs a lot of consideration too since most of the times I see people are just ignored when it comes to job profiling if they are unfamiliar with the computers.
Government have to put in trials faster for the vaccination.
We have to build a mask which can be safely reused!
Homeless people can also be the carrier and have more problems , so those people needs help , settle them in some government made shelters.
If in the US government was able to build a whole place for the refugees and mexicans , they can do a good deed too!
They need to open booths to check people's health for free of cost since insurance companies are not helping.


There are a lot of things that needs to be done ✅ but right now giving them money is not a permanent solution, it's very beneficial temporary but if they want a solid lead they need better governance and take better steps which would eventually help their economy in the long run.
2384  Economy / Economics / Re: rich people super rich are taking loans now why? what it means ? on: October 07, 2020, 09:56:31 AM
See if we are talking about Rich people, they do have a lot of maintenance and at the same time most of the times people take EMI, now these EMI in the end are expensive to pay altogether.

Therefore I do think:

Loans of property
EMI
Loans of cars
Credit card payments
Etc

All these things take a lot of toll our of a person during pandemic, even if he is rich.

How try and imagine the same for the people who are poor or middle class.?? They did get hit the hardest during this pandemic and I believe government cannot help each and everyone so we have to work hard and keep social distancing while respecting the things we must do during the pandemic.

We cannot go to work, but we can work online. Things like that would save us. We need to adapt.

Unfortunately most softwares kills the originality by providing limited templates, limited designs. Unfortunately not every software can be purchased by everyone, everytime they try something new.
I think where you go wrong is trying to look for templates in order to create logos and thereby using the wrong software programs which you say are limiting you. That's not how things are done when it comes to logo design. You can do this with other forms of designing such as web pages or posters and people won't notice but certainly not with Logos.

Even those templates you are looking for were created by someone. Ask your self how they created them. It surely wasn't through magic, was it?

You can create your beautiful unique logo from scratch using a ton of designing software programs like Adobe photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, PicsArt for mobile, GIMP for Linux, Microsoft PowerPoint (yes, you saw it right, If you are imaginative enough, nothing can stop you). All those software programs and many more can let you create a logo without even having to subscribe for their premiums. I say this because I have ever used all of them before.

Consider this constructive criticism and not an attack as you seem to be so unhappy about the whole thing.

See this is good since it was the first time I ever tried designing a logo , I just went to the app store and searched , tried numerous softwares and everything has very limited stuff. We learn through these things only , it takes time, investment, experience and I myself just wanted to participate.

I am not a professional in digital designing not even a newbie.

I wanted to try something new , that too with a cursive font since I always find them really beautiful, therefore I just did it and submit.

This is for sure helpful for the future but I don't think I will ever think about even designing one since everyone made a big deal out of nothing.

Since I prefer using pen and paper I don't know much about these softwares but I believe most of them are paid and therefore I didn't want to purchase them and therefore found the best free one that I loved. But for that too, I used 3-4 hours since there was going back and forth and trying out everything.

Template that was being used was: background and that's it

Other than that there were only limited designs that you could add which I used , which many people used too.

An Artist can never hate anything more when he is himself accused of PLAGIARISM. When the app itself gives the users right to use it.

I decided it was actually a good point keeping the watermark since it is giving credits to the app makers itself. Therefore I didn't mention but it was completely obvious.

Then I went back again and tried designing a bunch of them using the basic shapes available but yes thank you for at least standing pro for the point that " Using template is not wrong " which was something that I was trying to prove the whole time.

Thank you @jayce and @logfiles

And then why are you attacking me?
Sorry I wasn't when you write you cannot really explain the tone 🐱

I believe I would use some neutral emojis.

Unfortunately I was actually standing with you 😅, sorry for the lack of social skills.

Since you made a good point about images being used in other things too .

God Sorry 🤞

Damn. You don't get my points?
I do get it man

But it's being said : It's plagiarism to use templates from a software.

Which I don't agree on .

2388  Economy / Reputation / Re: Cheating in Logo contest, participate using stock image or someone's else logo. on: October 07, 2020, 07:46:53 AM
Doesn't watermark does the same ? This is why we keep watermark.

This is why watermarks were invented.

Did I remove the watermark? Or claimed ? Plus not always the prize value is higher than the prize of the software present and I believe keeping watermarks gives respect to the idea.

Plus templates are background.
You stumble across many softwares before you find the right one.

Quote
On the Roobet Art's contests, I see many submissions with template icons or wallpapers


Why aren't they also here in reputation board ?

_*_

I kept the watermark as a respect..
Template was flawless
Software was good since I had to try 10 before finding the right one.

_*_

This also takes work.



[I will actively participate in this particular thread since I stand against PLAGIARISM but I am greatly offended that am being dragged for using a template lawfully ]
2389  Economy / Reputation / Re: Cheating in Logo contest, participate using stock image or someone's else logo. on: October 07, 2020, 07:12:55 AM
As fiulpro explained above, I think is quite reasonable to make a logo by free software. If there is an option to choose a free template means it's free to use for everyone which shouldn't consider as copyright or plagiarism. Directly use someone else image and if try to claim his own then its a matter of concern. Sometimes even me I use canva software to create a banner or logo, it's free for everyone. So if someone else matches my template then it wouldn't consider plagiarism. Because the software allowed me to use their templates without watermark. I am not a design expert but expressed my opinion here.

Logo should be :
 Simple
 Innovative
 Good for the eyes
 Easily reproducible
 Original

Unfortunately most softwares kills the originality by providing limited templates, limited designs. Unfortunately not every software can be purchased by everyone, everytime they try something new.

Using same template is not : PLAGIARISM

What PLAGIARISM is : removing the watermark unlawfully and not giving credit to the software who you used.

We have certain templates, certain fonts that for sure stands out and will be loved by many in the future , these things are bound to happen.

_*_

If there is only one C available for free and one template for free , people will use it.

Why not?

It's beautiful and very intelligently choosen by the creators , what matters is *can you make something new out of the limited time, budget and tools?*

*Something unique?*

_*_

What I did was see the scope of that C , how far I can push it, how better it may be used, keeping it super simple. Yet aligned to make it look like a pattern/ sign.

Even this took hours , thinking , drafting , using rough designs , trying out new softwares to see if they work out. No it's not as easy as mirroring a simple C.

It takes time, effort , plus there are websites providing: free vector images .

Which I believe many people used here , even they are not liable to a negative trust or being judged low. some vector images are : Paid ofcourse
But don't forget many are free

At the same time there are certain fonts users used here as I see, font doesn't qualify as plagiarism

You cannot hold users accountable for using a font.

_*_

Thus my argument: Am disappointed in the OP , without conducting thorough investigation, even accusing people would not only hurt them but also prevent further participations from different angles, in fear of not being marked.
2390  Economy / Services / Re: Help the Homeless animals!! Urgent adoption needed !! on: October 07, 2020, 06:05:54 AM


Me and some of my friends , we had the opportunity to rescue mom and her babies from a busy road in a market , they were thrown in a dump.
Mom is pitbull mix and have 9 puppies. Some of them are injured since they were below a pile of rubbish, some people are just hopeless.

It's been a week and I Believe now we should start looking for some new owners to adopt the puppies and the mom alike.

I couldn't keep them at home since I already have so many here and 10 people were a little bit more, so we have paid for an overexposure. If someone is interested and want to adopt them. Please let me know.



They were under piles of vegetables and rubbish, it was raining so bad since 2 days that we thought they would not be able to survive, but God works miracles sometimes.

-*-

Please share if there is someone you know who needs a beautiful puppy? We don't know the breed ! But we don't care about it.

Whosoever is living close to Ukraine can answer! We might see if something works out.

All puppies are healthy now. One baby is getting treated because of wounds but her prognosis is amazing.

-*-

Meanwhile the second kitten just received a call from someone and I believe at the end of the week we can see if they are good people.

Multiplayer is more interesting.

It allows the user to engage in realtime with other people. Since during Quarantine everyone is sitting at home and thus I believe now a days multiplayer games are a hit. It doesn't only provide:
 company
But also allows user to play against a more challenging individual, it's overall more fun.

But unfortunately I am not that good at those therefore I prefer playing games like crash and such since it have higher chances of giving you profits and at the same time you can win and play safe too.

When I loose 25% of the amount, I just withdraw even if the crash just started, keep doing that by making small bets and in like 20-30 min , you can very easily gain that 25% back.

This is kind of my safe game.
2392  Economy / Reputation / Re: Cheating in Logo contest, participate using stock image or someone's else logo. on: October 07, 2020, 04:11:47 AM
Hi,
I believe I already explained my situation. The software was unpaid and I stumbled across it. There was only the C letter available , I had no idea how I would stumble across the logo of a knitting page with 600 followers.

Nor would I search for a logo like C.

Due to limited options, I had to use C to make a D.



As you can see only one was available.
Plus what I used is a Template! The only one that was available in the unpaid version.

I didn't remove my watermark due to the aforementioned reason. Plus even I cross checked with google lens and it did show nothing. Then I submitted.




So I am being told:
A same girl used ur font , ur software , somewhere in the world since she also had the unpaid version, it was invisible on the Google lens but still out of nowhere you copied her logo , maybe messaged that girl to ask which software is it mam ? Then downloaded that software ( since water mark is there ) or maybe took her image , changed her C.

Ridiculous.

The reason I didn't remove my logo and resubmitted was because I believed the OP did read my message on the same topic.

-*-

The gradient here being used is the simple one available on the software. Maybe try going on the watermark, download it and let me know if am wrong.



The girl didn't have watermark!?
How would I know ?
I used all the logo designing apps available to see what I liked !
If it was not on the page of google lens , how could I know that somehow someone is using the same template as me???


ALSO:
Using BASIC template Available is NOT CHEATING.
You can USE same templates if you did , IT IS NOT PLAGIARISM.

Ofcourse the app have a lot of downloads !!? So anyone who used the free version in my account and used the same free" C" (and not H ) cheated ?

And again : I wouldn't remove mine since am aware of what plagiarism is!! I have been working as an artist over the years, now professionally. I myself hate that. But I believe am really disappointed how you opened this thread without even seeing my last post on the topic there ? Without even maybe downloading the software and confirming what I said was right ? Without even checking the Google lens results? Without even considering how I would go on an instagram id with 600 followers ?

See fam there are people out there , more like me , who used the same 'C' , the same template, the same software! Because the unpaid version only allows that.

Plus the girl who is being talked about removed the watermark!! Please ask her if someone messaged you about the logo software ?

Message me in private if you still have doubts.

-*-

This aside I have a question for OP, why did you use a new template? I mean the C with nitka?

Since the template I was accused of cheating was of Wendy's crafts I believe.

-The reason for this is : again : same template of the free version, which is bound to happen.

Softwares like logo designers allow very limited stuff for the people who just downloaded them , so ofcourse there are many out there who would use it.

John McAfee, the 74-year-old software magnate-turned-crypto-bull

They used the term crypto-bull
Other sites are using terms like : crypto enthusiast

I really would appreciate if these articles are being written by real people who appreciate cryptocurrencies. Every single person on our forum the least knew who the person really was.

He was arrested on the basis of a Tax Fraud, like many people he tried to use cryptocurrencies to invade taxes. Even today I saw a post on how if we buy something from bitcoins we might save on tax and such. The thing is :

1) Tax Fraud on any level is wrong
2) cryptocurrencies are highly regulated because people actually do things like these. They are not something with which you can evade tax or do something illegal
3) laws are being made stricter everyday and these kind of people really portrays us in a bad way

Lying is a skill of marketers. It's what everyone does everyday for sure in the market, so I believe he is going to be heavily fined and would be under bars for a considerable time.
2394  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin and taxes buying goods and items with btc tax free on: October 06, 2020, 06:58:00 PM
Hello

In some countries this might be the case, the cryptocurrencies aren't taxed there but in most of the countries you do have to do KYC connected to your wallet , which inturns gives your information to the government very easily. Therefore if you would try to invade tax by P2P buying, you might have to go to the court to show where you got all the money from and then pay fine.

At the same time in many countries, they have system of GST , which takes around 5-10% of the price irrespective of how you decide to buy it.

Therefore you would have to check with what you are dealing with.

Laws are different in different places and I do believe you have to do a thorough research on this topic then decide to buy something with BTC.

But if you have BTC in cold storage since a very long time and therefore it's Virgin of might have no track history, then you can very easily make transactions with the other person, but registering the thing would be difficult in your name.

1. Country
2. Laws
3. Registration
4. History of the coins

There are a lot of things that you have to keep into account.

Don't want to criticize anyone, but so that the OP is not fool and by looking at there generous nature I had to mention this.

Even this winning art seem to be inspired from an Instagram logo.




Maybe Inspired from :



https://www.instagram.com/wendydaehandmade/

Let me quote it so it can be seen properly:

Firstly: first time seeing this art
Secondly: It's a matter of cursive C, which can be used as a mirror image and made into a D Cheesy , plus the reason I didn't remove the watermark was because I was sure someone will try and find something like that 🤣

No: It wasn't inspired by it
Secondly: The software I used have this basic font that we can add as we please , plus none of the vector images were used , there is no plagiarism as I see it, secondly if you want download the software , it's available for free on the app and unfortunately due to unpaid version I could only use very limited color : thus blue. Smiley < Using the same unpaid software with limited possibilities is not plagiarism. You can only use the letter "C" from additional big fonts if it's not unlocked .

{Plus I was actually going more for an infinity version , and in the background choose the one that had colors of the earth 🌎 which means the brand is global and signifies infinite possibilities. }

Plus the girl also used the same software, at the same time the only font available Wink of unpaid version and decide to remove the watermark by cropping the image.

1. Template of same software
2. Standardized writing Wink which cannot be modified until and unless purchased

This is hard seeing the problems here Sad ,I believe everything will be sorted out really fast , am really sorry for the problems from the side of the participants. Plus, I would like the thank you for even considering my design since this was the first time I thought of designing a logo, I would resubmit my old entry and maybe try making something new in the upcoming day.

Thank you , best of luck to all the participants.



This is the old logo that I submitted and hopefully I would make another one till the ending. Plus I believe we all are responsible here and using the OP's generosity and kindness is something awful, thus if someone genuinely took the logo from a site or something, Respectfully submit another since am aware that everyone here is pretty talented and can do much better Wink





The color can be changed and the gradient can be added, it can be made golden/ black the second image was the show how the gradient will look like.

Or we can use some simple geometric things, even they can be very easily modified.
[[ Plus am not aware of any company's logo with a simple triangle and circle ⭕*3 , if anyone have any concern regarding this one, please note, it's not a vector , it's hand drawn and just put into position]]




Or it can be as simple as this , since it can be easily reproduced on various items
