well, for the winter holidays at least. Don't own a camera, can't print unless I drop some major non-existent cash, and besides, I got my clamation/live action/puteranitmation/photgraphy hybrid short film to keep myself busy (which you all have to download once it's finished! Won't be large, no more than 10 megs compressed in DIVX at the absolute MAX). school ends very soon, and I ain't sure if I'll get a chance to get back in the darkroom at all. In the meantime, I gaurantee that I will still be a regular here, answering every post with the ever so repetitive "more contrast", and yes, I will be entering in the november shapes contest, and yes, I will whip some major moderator booty. Just thought I'd squelch the fears you all may have had regarding that subject, heh heh... In the meanntime, I will continue to sport a devilish grin. It's gettiong pretty cool in the forum and on renderosity. No longer do I feel like an invisible character with an amusing name that very annoyingly makes everyone in the main chat room chant the commercial Slinky song over and over. People are actually respecting my opinions and beliefs around here, and I've actually been asked questions on a few occasions by some people who I'd expect to ask someone more knowledged in subjects, which is damn cool. Also, for the steadily increasing amount of new faces showing up around here, there are some great people in this form from varying backgrounds, tastes, and styles, and I have yet to find a single person unwilling to help out a stranger in the photo forum. Post your asses off, and be your own final judge, but don't be afraid to ask what may seem like a "dumb" question or anything cause everyone had to start somewhere, and everyone had to ask that same question or have it asked for them at some point (and if someone hasn't yet, you'll be helpping them out too by asking). And fear not, because the donuts are on Alpha every Sunday. Ry ps. JordyArt is in charge of supplying the toilet paper, which he has failed to do on the last several occasions. It'd be really nice for a newcomer to pick up his slack... hint hint.
