Supergirl Fan Art on DeviantArt

Some really beautiful images on here. Kind of makes you want to give up the whole silly notion of making some Supergirl images though ;)

It's funny, pre internet I used to really enjoy looking at artists work. You had to seek it out and collect books and such. It's was more precious somehow. Then the internet came along and the whole world of images and artists was suddenly a few clicks away. Inundation. It sort of dulls the appreciation. Maybe it's just getting older compounded with that. Now amazing things are being conjured at word prompts, more devaluation. I don't know. It's a strange feeling, like insignificance... something you've spent your whole life seeking out, studying, appreciating suddenly grows so commonplace. It's like when your favorite underground band all of a sudden sells a million records and Joe Blow is a fan now. It's like not earned feeling. Difficult to put into words without sounding...

I read you loud and clear. I am fully aware of the internet and the power it wields. One of my friends told me one time that the internet ruined his childhood. He knew what a dirty sanchez was before he was old enough to go through puberty. I kind of laughed it off at the time, but now I get it.

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
