Tangerine Twist@scribe.disroot.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•possible to clean the backing fabric of this art?8·10 days agoHave you tried taking it to the dry cleaners? I’ve had some success in the past with textile arts using the solution inside the Dryel dry cleaning kit; it required plenty of blotting and patience. FYI: If you go to the cleaners, they will ask what made the stain (e.g., oil, dust, ink, etc.) and some knowledgeable ones will recommend how to clean it or refer you to someone who does.
You’re correct about the backing (hardboard) in that it must not get wet – I could be wrong but it looks like MDF (medium density fiberboard). They will swell up upon contact with water. Good luck.
EDIT: Just wanted to say that you have a lovely piece of folkart.

Tangerine Twist@scribe.disroot.orgto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Possible new variation of the Art Station/Freelance Cashier's Check scam?English1·28 days agoYes! Absolutely yes to everything you said! I don’t mean to be nitpicking but he didn’t capitalize the first letter of his name — that just stuck to my head, sorry.
He doesn’t need your name or bank info, either. I did chuckle when I saw the photos, lol.
IIRC, you’ll receive a payment for more than the $600 and then you’ll have to issue a refund. Since everything is done electronically, I think that’s when you get robbed? The link on the bottom is from FTC.
If you have the patience, keep him hanging while you report his phishy scam. That is definitely a child model posing for a photo!
Good luck, my friend. Gonna bookmark this post in case of updates.

I couldn’t find a proper community (used the search on Mlem) but maybe cross post it on AskLemmy or NoStupidQuestions
Good catch on your part and thanks for letting us know. Steven definitely seems suspicious IMO.

Some posts are so uplifting that it restores my faith in humanity, then the next post has nothing but toxic comments that makes my eyes hurt.
Tangerine Twist@scribe.disroot.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where is the best place to buy books in PDF format?6·2 months agoHave you tried Archive.org or https://www.gutenberg.org/? And Calibre.
If you’re on MacOS, you can use Books to convert it or Preview specifically to pdf. These are both Apple stock apps.
There are plenty of resources online on how to convert to pdf. You can also check out Kobo, Smashwords, ebooks and this old article from https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/buy-ebooks-best-ebook-stores/). Have fun.
Found this post today about different iOS apps for Lemmy:
