The Issue

For those who've been following it all - [link]

Seeing as it appears there may be those who can't or won't stop to consider that people have lives beyond dA, I see I need to stop in to say that when I have the will and time to type up something about my views I will. Right now my main concern is much more important than this site and a bunch of angry deviants. Not that I feel I owe anyone an explanation, but there's been an accident involving my son. Thank you to those who can understand and respect that, the rest can kindly sod off.

Ha!!! That ought to say "Read Gallery Descriptions Or Suffer Consequences." We need more consequences, dammit!

Wonderful Daily Deviation gallery there, too, sis. It's a thankless job to sort through the tons of suggestions you must get and then get bitched at when you didn't pick the "RIGHT" one. I commend you on your patience and the fractals that you DO choose!

You'll wait a long time for that judging by the fence sitting demonstrated in this journal

For those who've been following it all - [link]

-----------------------------

That's it? That's all the fractal gallery director has to say on the subject? Not a single word? Not even on the way the CEA arrogantly, ignorantly & dismissively said that "there is no creative effort involved beyond setting the actual values” about fractal art? You're OK with him completely rubbishing the art form you represent here?

Seems to me you're more concerned with your '

osition' here than you are with representing the fractal artists on the site.
