leaving DA D:

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 17, 2009, 8:32 AM


I've noticed that recently every time I visit DA I have an uncomfortable feeling, for various reasons. It's about to be a burden for me and it's really frustrating, and I will have busy months anyway so I've decided to go on a hiatus.
I have my reasons, if you are interested. First of all, I know it's very childish, but I'm tired of seeing mediocre art getting so much (well, at least in my opinion) undeserved attention, just because it's fanart. In fact, some of my artwork belong to this category too, especially my first Hetalia fanart with Lithuania and the chibi Latvia picture. Every day, if I see I received new favs I get excited but 99% of the time it's for one of my fanarts, mostly one of these two picture or my ugly South Park pictures, while other pieces I worked so hard on hardly get any views. I feel this is not right, and I get angry at comparing the Latvia picture (which I made in like, half an hour) to, for example, my recent OC arts and how the first one is liked more. And I hate how other people become popular just because they draw boring, unimaginative fanarts. I know everyone says, one should work for their personal enjoyment but sometimes I feel I get nothing in return for my efforts. ;A; I'm kinda stuck in this situation.
I know I've been inactive in the last month on DA, maybe that's the reason why not only new people, but old friends aren't visiting my page anymore. But if the only reason why you sent me comments etc. was that you would expect the same in return, I'm not sorry for our friendship. (Of course, this does not apply to those people who really were busy lately, like me. I understand that, you know what kind of people I was referring to).
I would like to thank sweet people like ~catqueen13, ~lolcrayon and some others who always supported me ;3; <3 you are one of the few people here I really love.
The other thing which really annoyed me was art trades. Aside from a few exceptions, usually I was the one who drew their part and others magically forgot about it. I'm really fed up with this too ;3; I mean, it's okay if it takes some weeks, but a whole year?? or even more? You really didn't find 3-4 hours to draw a simple picture?? D: sorry, but that's terribly rude.
All in all, I'm not a happy user of DA anymore. Surely I will be away for a while, maybe just for a few month or maybe forever. I'll let my close friends know if I decide to make a new account and give it a fresh start - but of course only if they are interested in it ;3;
so bye bye everyone and I hope you will have more luck with DA than I did D:
