I used to update my online journals all the time back in the day, blogs, devArt and other journals etc... but these days I'm just not in the mood for this sort of thing. Am I bored with it ? am I over devArt ? It would be a sad day if this was the case. Anyways, so the most prominent piece of news since my last update was my 4 week trip to Christmas island. Since my Jan 24th update (back to Sydney) it just happened that i traveled a bunch of times between Melbourne and Sydney and it wasn't clear where i was going to stay. i was basically jumping around looking for work, uni opportunities etc... It's not a lot of fun, being a bum (still isn'

So much's happened since my last entry. I really do suck at updating my blogs, twitters, fb status', journal entries etc.... We first of all I'd like to introduce my new lover and friend, the awesome Canon 7D. Amazing in its beauty, facilities, its cute little mini-screen situated on top for when I wanna shoot when the camera is at my chest or hip level. Not to mention the full HD video capability. I love it ! And of course, the 18 megapixels never hurt anybody either. there is something satisfying about taking RAW images at 32Megs. Another setting I was very excited about was how clear the high ISO setting images are, with the 350D anythi

Great reportage!

Thank you for joining Iraqi-History. :)

There is a policy that permits the founder of the group to transfer the position to someone else. I'd like someone with heritage from Iraq to be the head of the group as soon as possible. Since you are and you are very fluent in English, I think you would be the best choice.

I will still stay there to help out with getting the group going, however having a head of the group who is very familiar with the culture of Iraq and Iraqis is a priority.
Hello, I am the founder of a group on Italian history called Storia-Italiana (Italian-History), similar to the highly successful group German-History. I and others, including the founder of German-History, Arminius1871, have been looking to find someone interested in founding an "Iraqi-History" group. We prefer that the person who founds it be someone with heritage from Iraq so as to not appear as if it is being run by people unfamiliar with Iraq.

You are the founder of a group for Iraqi DeviantArtists and thus have experience with administering a group and you appear interested in Iraqi culture, so you would be a good fit to be the founder of that group. If you need help with the format and getting the group set up, I will gladly help as a co-founder as I did for the group British-History that is now up and running.

Arminius1871 and I have been working together to find someone to found an "Iraqi-History" group, as Iraq is the origin of Western civilization and both Iraq and Iraqis have influenced the world history tremendously for centuries.

I hope you consider founding such a group as Arminius1871 and I will gladly provide support to get the group started.
Hi, I just received this message. Your proposal sounds interesting. How easy is it to create such a group? And what kind of material would it collect? 
It should be easy to create the group. The group would collect all contemporary artwork, photographs, flags, maps, and symbols, pertaining to Iraqi history. I have set up a model of organization on Storia-Italiana / Italian-History and British-History that shows what I have in mind.

I cannot create a group at this point because I am an administrator in three groups on my standard membership. I think I'm going to leave one group to help you found this group if you are interested. I think it would be preferable to have a person of heritage from Iraq who is interested in Iraqi history to found it. I would assist as a co-founder.

I need to go somewhere soon. Perhaps tomorrow I can provide you more details and ideas I have in mind for the group.
Happy Birthday! xD
Thank you, a little belated I know, but I only just saw this message
