It's been while since I've done anything on this site besides thanking people for adding my work to their favorites.

There are a few reasons for that.

For one, I'm not sure I like this site anymore. I like many of the people I've met, but this site is getting ridiculous with its deviation-deleting mayhem.

I'm not talking about just my gallery, but the galleries of some of my favorite artists and watchers. The administrators don't even seem to know their own rules. It seems that the only immune people are black-and-white photographers. They can take a picture of a man shitting in a cat's mouth and it'd be considered worthy of a daily deviation; but it's a sin upon mankind if anyone draws such an atrocity with pens or pencils.

Well, I could carry on about the administrators and the people who complain relentlessly about anything but Sonic fan art and black-and-white photography, but I'd just start to sound like a dick.

Another reason I'm not too active on this site anymore is the simple fact that I just haven't drawn or written anything in a long time. That's not such a bad thing; I tend to take long breaks from creating from time to time, but I must say that this is the longest break I've probably ever taken. It's not that I've run out of ideas; it's just that I plain don't feel like drawing. Or writing odd poetry.

I've noticed that I do more drawing and writing when I'm depressed, and I'm far from depressed. My life is going so smoothly, that I'm just plain thrilled most of the time. That's not such a bad thing, and if my art gets sacrificed in the mean time, then so be it.

As for my lack of comments on most peoples' deviations, I'm sorry, but there's only one of me, and I just can't spend eight hours a day on this site commenting on stuff. Rest assured, I look at most everything, but I just can't take the time anymore to comment all the time.

Joining this site was an experiment to begin with, and I'm amazed I've stayed on this long. For now, I'm not going to be doing much on here, but that may change in the future. I may go into super-artist mode without even getting depressed first, and then you'll all see all kinds of stuff from me. But maybe not, and watching me will prove to be a waste of your time.

I admire and respect each and every artist on here, even the black-and-white photographers who are immune to DA's deletion-wrath. I just can't take the time to be as social these days, even if I still find the time on occassion to browse through this site and find some cool shit. So keep creating, and don't mind the fact that I might not comment on your work; just keep in mind that I'll likely at least look at what you create, and no matter what, I'll respect it.
