INTRODUCTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First, please for the love of god stop leaving "Thank you" comments.
I know you are grateful I picked a piece to favorite.
What I don't know is why you have to thank me.
I understand. You are most welcome.

Second, I mark content I create as mature for a reason.
If you cannot view my work because you are underage please find a parent to create an adult account for you or deal with the fact you will have to wait to view the content. DA found it appropriate to become the "art world parent" and block the content some people found "inappropriate". Sad thing is ... some of these people are grown ups. (-_-)'

Third, I am no longer allowing comments on certain artwork.
I don't need your shallow unthoughtful comments like "OMG THAT IS CUTE!" "SO AWESOME *_*" etc... keep them to yourself.
I also don't need to be belittled because you view my work less than someone else's.
I also don't need to be overly praised for my work. Someone will always be better than you at something no matter what.

NOTES TO THE PUBLIC
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I watch you because you intrigue me. I favorite a piece that tugs at my soul. I don't comment on everything I favorite and I don't comment on everyone I watch. I just like to enjoy art for the sake of art. People are getting way too uptight about art anymore. Making it a formal thing...creating standards for everyone to reach... forcing a large part of our community to conform. I want to be free to choose my art. I will let you choose yours.
