Finally... a new journal entry

As many of those who have been watching me since before december know... what a terrible sentence. I'll start again.

If you've been watching me since before December you'd know that recently I've been having my 15 minutes of dA fame. Before I submitted that Mr Blank Stare animation I had a bit over 4000 pageviews and if you look now there are well over 8000. So you can see that my message centre has had quite a workout over the past few weeks! I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has visited my page and given me feedback on my work and for all the favourites

The day after submitted Mr Blank Stare I was getting about 3-4 favourites every minute for a while (it's now dropped off to about 3-4 every day) and while thanking those who favourited it I had the chance to visit many great galleries and make lots of new friends here.

It was kinda strange considering I've been here submitting photos for months then I submit one animation and it becomes the 21st most popular flash thing ever on dA within a few days

Then a couple of weeks later my message centre again had a big influx when I got a Daily Deviation (thankyou djana and cafezero !). I think that was even better because I was being recognised for my photography and got the opportunity to see a lot of great photographic galleries. Many of these galleries were hardly getting any attention but I didn't have much time to comment on things so I ended up having to just watch a lot of people.

Seeing all these underrated galleries I felt like I wanted to help others gain some recognition. It just so happened that timtam and UniPT were starting a group called da-unreleased whose aim is to do just that. So I've signed on as an admin there

Thankyou again everyone who has visited my page and has appreciated my work!
