Conceited

My current favourite of my recent images. I change my mind a lot.

This is what I've submitted lately. Be sure to check out my gallery to see more awesomeness and not as much less-than-wonderful stuff. There's a reason not all my stuff is in "Featured". ^.^

Maybe looking for a studio site

Hey guys...

I love Another Studio and I don't want to leave them, but I don't feel any support over there. Making images isn't easy for me, as I'm not artistically inclined, so without a support network I lose motivation really quickly. Maybe I should just keep taking requests on The Secret since I hear from more than just the requester over there, but we have a small graphics staff team so I have to keep the pool of requests small, and that means less selection for me.

I like studios and I want to be a part of one. But AS feels a little abandoned nowadays, and after all the work I've put into making images there I just... I feel unappreciated. We've not once been thanked for our hard work. Am I expecting too much? There's no community left and the admin team is difficult to get a hold of. I feel like such a tool always mentioning what needs to be done in the Cbox, but I don't know what else to do. I don't WANT it to die, but I have no power there. Even the mods can't do a whole lot.

Does anyone know of any photomanipulation studios (prefereably on an Invisionfree or Proboards platform) that is active, nice-looking and friendly? I've been invited to Insincere and I've had a look at Scythe, VOS and Imagine That. None of them grab me instantly. I'm very wary of new sites, since I don't trust admins to be as ridiculously active as I am. I'm a real sucker for gorgeous skins (especially ones not in pale grey, that's so overdone) and I feel more at ease when the power is distributed so things don't all fall to pieces when one admin gets busy and poofs. I'm a member on Surreal Studios, but I was rejected there in the past so I'm not incredibly keen to go throw myself at them again. Also their skin really doesn't appeal to me right now, and that's a big thing for me.

I just don't know where to go. I figure it might be easier to fit in somewhere where one or two people already sort of like me. Then I won't feel so invisible.

it is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

Why deleted you so many Manips? =(
Badri Studios Manips, the Distance Manip and others were so beautiful =)
:iconadverbial-spectra:
They're not deleted, I just moved some of my oldest work to Storage. They were old and not that great. I left up the ones with more favourites, but mostly I'd rather that people focus on my recent stuff. Distance is still available as the skin Silver Blue on The Secret [link] .

Thanks for your interest and support. :heart:
