congrats on keeping this up. i am back here, after a long, forgotten journey through "my country's fantasy", and i love it that i find every little thing as it was. Congrats, mr benedictor.

honestly i think that this project leaving the forum and going to an account is going to kill it. in the forum things are more in your face and active, here in the wastelands of accounts no one takes notice (and i know it is linked to a news topic but i figure that will only provide minimal help). i don't really have a solution for the problem but i did just want to bring it to your attention that i believe once the forum topic is gone this will start to die if countermeasures aren't taken.

I am aware of that, but I am willing to put in the effort to advertise this.
Unfortunately, the forum idea has far more problems than the account method.
This way, I will be better able to maintain, and organise affairs.
The forum was becoming a logistical nightmare, the thread taking over five minutes at times just to load. Then there was the 'who has adopted who?' issue.
This way the process becomes streamlined.
So long as I don't kick the bucket and become an ex-poet, I will do all I can to make sure that this idea stays alive.
Once I decide to get off my lazy posterior and do something about something, I tend to persevere.
If I didn't, it would cheapen the combined efforts that have been put into the idea.
Benedictions.

Get your creative juices flowing and design a movie poster for "Paper Heart" that focuses on the theme "What Does Love Mean to Me?".
The butter legion- a socialist movement/mass colab project I started, to trigger artistic change and evolution in Da artists (mainly my watchers), to make them more active and dedicated on DA. Now 170 people strong and growing... A "dangerous cult"? a "new religion"? "artistic version of fight club" or "communist movement"? You decide!
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
