Well, here's a little explanation for those who care to read it.

I do many artistic things in my life. In fact, I consider myself pretty creative. But, due to constraints of time, and my lack of drive for it, I don't post most of what I do. I haven't in years. Even on my FA account, which I actually use. I mainly draw or create things for my own pleasure, though I may share them with close friends out of pride for my creation.

As for time, I am currently enrolled at a technical college, and am a full-time student. I'm studying Criminal Justice, with an aim towards entering law enforcement shortly thereafter. And, even though I do draw in all my classes (taking notes isn't worth the effort, in my experience), I have yet to post anything. This -may- change, but I doubt it.

I think part of this is due to the reasons I mentioned above, but also because on FA, which I value much more than dA , I have several thousand submissions I haven't looked at, and can't even keep up with the shouts I get thanking me for a fave or a watch. I'd feel guilty posting stuff and expecting responses to it when I can't even check the tide of wonderful art that has clogged my inbox.

In short, I highly doubt I'll use this account for much of anything anymore. I have considered scanning in some of the art I've done, but that's more than 2 years' worth, and, like I said, it's not that important to me. Call me lazy, and I'd probably be guilty of it. But.. with the way things are right now... I don't know.. even some of the really good furry art I've done isn't something I'm likely to put on FA. What will it earn me? Popularity? A lot of watchers? That's not something I care about. And, yes, it may well lead me to meeting some new friends, but where will that lead? I barely have time to go online on my messengers as it is. I don't want to make more friends I'll only neglect.

Anyway, yes, in summation, I don't really use dA anymore. It never really suited my aims. FA allowed me to not only find a lot of impressive and unusual art, but also helped me make friends, which was what I was really looking for, whether I knew it or not.

Well, thanks for reading this, I guess. I think I just wrote to show "hey, I'm not really here." Again, I may post stuff in the future, but I doubt it. I don't know quite how to put it, but I guess maybe I'm just not the art-publishing type..?
