Also, I'm a lurker, and I lurk. Since 2002 I've posted like.. 10 things, none of which are any good, I just didn't want to lose them. Poetry which was very, very personal at the time is here, and I'd never written poetry before or since.

Despite the fact that I'm not super active on the site as far as posting goes, I'm here every day, browsing around, admiring other artists, digital artists, traditional artists, everything. I like to lurk. As a result I've been following people like Liquisoft and Ekud around for years, just watching, admiring, never saying anything (I always feel like I sound like an idiot when I spit praise). I don't complain about new dA site layouts, I don't contribute. But I'm here.

So go read [link] You owe it to yourself, if you read my journal at all, to go read that one. I've seen a lot of people complain about the submission system and this place sucks and blah blah blah. But really? It doesn't. In comparison with other sites, dA is a home to people as opposed to just a place to dump shit. Spyed as much as said that, and you owe it to him and the entire community to go read that jouanl post. Do it now.

I'll go back to lurking while you read.
