   i'm back ... for a little while and this is why...
yep well... there's some totally bogus stuff going on at DevinatART... you know like the co-founder, Jark, getting fired by the current CEO/President of DeviantART (Spyed) ... he really screwed Jark over. btw Jark is the one who created the site him and Matteo were the co-founders. Spyed was just there at the start of dA because he worked for the company that originally owned dA.
anyways... over the spread of time Spyed took away Jark's Presidency of deviantART (without notification) he also kinda shifted around the ammount of dA stock Jark held (without Jark selling it or being notified) and he also witheld company documents which legally had to be given to Jark... anyways Jark demaded it all back and that Spyed tell the truth about dA (Spyed was spreading a lot of lies about himself being a co-founder and taking credit for the creation of deviantART in many interviews. in the interviews he wouldn't mention of Jark who actually wrote the code and made the website completely himself OR Matteo who helped out with the idea of the site.
anyways the submission agreement there totally leaves the artists who submit there open to be screwed over (pretty much you had to trust them not to) and seeing as how i no longer trust the administration (for obvious reasons) i've gone and hidden all of my stuff on dA until i just go insane and submit more or until something changes.
hmm... and while i feel certain that i probably wouldn't get screwed over by deviantART (atleast not until the "better" artist did ... unless they just screwed everyone over at once...) i felt the need to join into the whole "Restore Trust to dA" deal which is why i hid everything.

anyways i uploaded two of my latest drawings... hope you enjoy.

--edit--
strike that i put my "deviations" back up cause i mean it would be pretty rude of my not to use the account my sister got me... and DA really is like my online home... even if it is pretty screwed up right now...
