I was never the one who had to draw all the time, and although I do go through phases of drawing more, I'd have to say no. I think I prefer the theory to the actual practice!

As for people painting the Sistine Chapel on phones, well some people manage to get good results even from Microsoft Paint, or the humble Etch-a-sketch... that would be people with far too much time on their hands if you ask me!

I did see a video of someone doing a really cool piece on an ipad, and now I wish I'd kept the link to sift (although it might be here already).In reply to this comment by taranimator:
Digital finger painting is strangely both more liberating and more restrictive. I'm still messing about with about 5 different apps trying to find one I could call 'user friendly'. On my home computer I have a lovely Cintiq -- you can see the image and draw on it with a stylus. I quite dig that. On my phone and my Ipad I can draw with my finger or a stylus. The finger painting is more awkward in some ways but to get the ipad/pod to pick up the motions of the stylus you have to press really hard! It's a bit weird. There's no real touch-sensitivity like on the Cintiq -- various apps try to simulate the look of it with tapering and speed = line width contols. So far not so good for me. But OTHER people are painting the freaking Sistine Chapel on their phones.. so the problem is probably not the tools but the user, ahem - me!
Still, I persevere! I swear, had I never seen the beautiful artwork people make on their phones, I never would have considered it possible. But I am intrigued.. and it IS fast! I can then upload those sketches to polish in a proper graphic program or just enjoy their speed-painting loosensess.
Are you a doodler?

I believe that may be Amy Merrill, the band's keyboard player, but I'm not sure.

There are more photos of the band on flickr.>> ^deathcow:

i cant take my eyes off the banjo player

Jesus, I go away on one little houseboating holiday and when I come back I find you've gone and turned 5! I'll never leave home again you little scamp... kids... they grow up so fast!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/paulvandijk/5388454871/sizes/o/ is mine

- it's 2 screens, but the left screen (laptop) is broken, so i only see half of that screen
- there are some passwords there, they aren't important but i crossed them out nonetheless
- the picture is from http://conceptships.blogspot.com/
- my desktop on the other computer is very organized with links to everything i need organized by type (music,video,games,internet,utilities) but because of the broken screen i haven't used this laptop a lot, so that's why it's a mess

Here's mine.

I utterly agree. Not sure if I've linked it or not. I don't care that much as the vast majority of my searches are done via Scroogle. Reminds me of having to get a Yahoo account so I could access flickr. Twats, all of them.

They had one of these at the 27C3 hackers conference in Berlin? I didn't go this year but they've had a few different models over the past few years.

Oh, thank god that was all. I was afraid it was a video of this thing.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

The only thing the archive is missing is the big Sifter logo in the header - it looked like Siftbot. Here's a screen:

Great sift, thanks for posting it Gargoyle! Dave is hot-cha-cha.
