I'm looking at it this way: at least it didn't cause more BS than what it did. I will play nice and work my ass off in any community and for anyone but not when I'm treated like crap. I may no longer be a professional artist but I am at least courteous.
I'm sorry that YOU had to go through this. It's utter shit that people act so uppity but it happens everywhere you go. I'm going to let it roll off my back. You can still be my friend. I appreciate the fact that you like my artwork, even though it's silly. I think the world needs more laughter and smiles so I'm going to keep drawing. Maybe one of these days, I'll get off my ass and become syndicated.
I wonder when this will pop up on furrydrama_2? LOL! :D
Thank you. "Those people are jerks." That's what I thought. I really don't want to associate with people who are petty like that. I think being voted out probably saved me (and the mods) a lot of headaches. You're awesome!
I hate elitists artists. It's a reason there's a laundry list of places I WILL NOT participate. I refuse to let people judge my work like that. (And frankly I think your *quality* is just fine, better and more consistent than a lot of people! They're just mistaking a different style choice for a lack of skill.)
I don't draw the way that everyone else does. I know that. Personally, I prefer people who do things differently. (I don't have a fursuit by Mixed Candy for a reason... they all look the same!) And you see the same stuff over and over. Gah. That's why your Loonakits are the cutest things ever! :D I love mine.
The problem with art communities is that they can be populated by those who have to feel superior to others - ok, that's actually a problem with life. Heh. Anyway, I'm not really too upset. I was a bit when it first happened and then I thought, "Do I want to join a community with that many assholes in it?" I was voted in at a 2/3 decision by the mods. One was a friend, the other I don't know who they are. As I told my friend/the mod, I will keep doing what I do because I enjoy it - and it makes OTHER people happy, too.
Thank you for the support of Dad. He was a little urpy last night but was up, ready and raring to go in the morning. He went to Cracker Barrell with a friend after getting chemo. Too much rich food on an already sour stomach - not a good idea.
You know,I am soo sick and tired of these furry art communites tossing out decent artists while allowing very untalented artists remain because they are "buddies" of one or more of the "mods".If this is the same group I think it is(and one that I am a member of),it's no wonder they haven't tossed me out for lack of submissions.I personally think it's not what you know,but how popular you are that counts for anything in this fandom. *rages* Just to let you know,I fully support you and your art.I think it's great and you have a lot of talent. A lot more than a few I could mention by name that are on the furry image sites.My opinion is,start your own site on a webhost and tell that art comunity to kiss your *ss!
Calm down, puddin! Ha ha ha! Actually, this is a new, just started comm. for artists. The way I'm looking at the fiasco is that there are elitist assholes in the group and I would NOT fit in with them on a personality level, much less on an artistic one. Also, I really don't want to associate with people like that either. I do agree, however, that my eviction could be due to the fact I'm not popular or that I don't draw the way everyone else does. Being a life long outsider, I don't do popular. The whole elitist thing gets me, though. I don't know exactly why, but when I see someone who has poor skill and is struggling, I like to help them get better. I guess it's my "you should be a teacher" thing that people keep telling me that I have.... Thanks so much for the support. It means a lot. hugs :)
