Done and out
No reason to hang around here anymore. This part of my life is over. It's sad to see that the wacky era of art-sharing and community that DeviantArt created has ended. I'm not saying that people here are mean now, but the site itself has destroyed accessibility and easy peer-to-peer communication. It wants to make this website into something like ArtStation, but it isn't. It can't. You sold yourself up the river when you made that statement all those years ago that essentially said "If your art is stolen, tough. People were just *inspiiiiired* by it." I think the end of DeviantArt is a really, really sad one, I really do. There is simply...too much content. I don't know the better way to say it. There is so much content and so many creative talented people, that everyone else looks so much more worse in comparison. "Put out perfection or expect to be ignored", and even then, you won't get the views you used to. I'm sure someone somewhere has articulated this better than me
(shrug)
This website has changed so drastically the past three years that it feels like a copy of ArtStation more than the website where people could just dump their art and participate in contests and raffles and art trades. I genuinely miss the feel of "Amateur and Professional squeezed into one conference hall" feel that this place had. Now I can barely find anything, people have largely moved onto other places like Instagram and Twitter, ArtStation, Patreon... this place is where I spent my formative years of my fandom. This place also kickstarted my unhealthy obsession with perfection and self-loathing as I constantly compared my 13 year old self with people who were doing art for 10+ years. This place is a sour patch kid, except replace the sour with the bitter. I miss this place, but... how the hell am I supposed to find ANYTHING on this site now? lmao
not back, but not gone
Assuming that my mental stability is just that--stable--I am sort-of-not-really back.
Maybe it's my body's hormonal chemistry that's making me so...optimistic, but instead of feeling dread and depression, I feel a bit...hopeful being here.
Yes, this site ain't what it used to be. Yes, I had my awkward 12-13 year old years here (out of laziness my shite writing will remain posted, but I've deleted the stupid photos from way back from my deviations). Yes, I felt very inferior to all the artists on this website.
But I'm 20 years old and I've finally know how to use Photoshop, sort of. I know how to edit a GIF and make a stamp.
So I now have

The reason they made Ling they way they did is for story purposes... He had to be Greedy; because his Avarice had to paralell Greed... lmao
