WHAT?

Mon Aug 31, 2009, 2:49 PM
"At deviantART we believe that tracing has a place in our community. We consider it to be a valid learning tool and a technique which has been used long before we had any such applications such as Illustrator or Photoshop. Tracing is how Michelangelo’s assistants transferred his “cartoons” onto the ceiling of the Sistine Chappell. We believe that it is the right of any individual to express themselves within our policies and to share their creativity with the community, interact with other deviants and grow as an artist." ~Break it down easy - Tracing Edition

...

I refuse to believe tracing someone else's art and claiming it THEIR own to be "art".

But I'm glad there's such an article that finally gives an easy breakdown on the core of the area.

Sorry, but it's official. I'm quitting. =\

You will find me as tsukita-sun @ MangaBullet. It may be anime/manga-centric, but it's certainly better than here.

It was only a matter of time. Actually, I was contemplating the decision way before this article. This just put the nail on the last board.

I'm going to miss you all. T_T; I'll probably visit every once in a while to check friends' pages and such, but that's really all there is to it. No more posting, no more journal-posting (at least that's what I believe), no nothing. This has now become a spectator account. If you don't want me to watch you, then please e-mail me or PM me. Thanks.

Farewell my friends. <3

[EDIT:] I'm sorry everyone who have commented. I WILL eventually reply to you directly, but here's my general response. I've deleted my entire gallery to enforce my decision, so sorry to those who have faved several of my pieces--or even just one of my pieces. Again, terribly sorrry...and thanks for everything.

Heeeeeeey! xD

I was bored and started reading an entry on your manga bullet account, and alas, I encountered the mentioning of your trip to Europe!!!

This really got me excited because I went to England with my band group too, over spring break of last year! We had so much fun!

I just wanted to know how your trip was! What country/ies did you visit?!?!?!?

That's all. xP
Haha, and i miss you loads. =(

I hope to see you soon!

It won't be long now/Before we part-
The sun is waiting/For the stars~

Strength as my aid,/Courage beside me,
The love that you gave me,/And a steady heart...
