Excellent render and I'm about to add one more to your IMs.

Great Picture Meredith. Do what you can when you can and don't worry about it. If it makes you feel any better, I added way too many people to my favorites list when I had time to keep up and now haven't managed to keep up with more than a select few with any regularity, and have to say you're the only one I'm even current with at the moment. For perspective, I've got well over 10,000 e-mails sitting waiting for me. I keep hoping I'll get a chance to knock some out and gradually chip away at it, but I'm guessing that's not very realistic. They're still there though...maybe someday I'll delete them all. But you know what...they realistically won't miss me if I don't comment on each and every one, so I'm ok with that. And I'm ok with it if you don't manage to comment on each and every one of mine either. So I guess I'd go with the nuke everything or nuke all but one of each so you can see the pictures but don't feel compelled to comment. Do what works best for you and don't worry about us.

Here is my suggestion as my hubby got the same way as you. If you do not want to delete them all how about picking one from each artist and then you have commented on at least one of their works. Sometimes all these comments stops us from doing what we should be doing in real life. Most people understand and dont expect you to comment on everything. I post once a week and some people post 4 times. I keep up but only just. Just do one from each artist :) Cathy xoxoox

exellent as allways -keny

Dear Sweet Meredith... what have you gotten yourself into? I would have to agree with the majority of the people. I am sure you have read all the IM's and Ebots. That in itself had to be a huge undertaking. You need not reply to each and every one. We all need to keep a grip on our real life. You have touched the lives of many here in such a reletively short period of time. you have a very beautiful outlook on life, and you place that in jepordy if you let things get out of control. Indeed your very helth and well being seem to be at risk here. You have gained such a huge group of admirers since you first posted back on Friday, February the 11th. I am so very proud of you and your accomplishments. I am going to be selfish now and admit that I would miss you if something were to happen...So, Please take care of yourself. Unless you won the lotto, you need that job, you need to be healthy and you need to sleep. Most everyone you think you owe a reply to has surly read this, or will read it tomorrow. I, and they will understand. We have grown to Love your work, but more importantly we care about you. I would hate to have to sign a get well card for you!

Dear friend, no matter what remember I'm holding my fingers crossed for you. I can imagine what it's like for you at the moment - been there myself and I actually still am just every now and then. My advice is - don't push yourself over the edge, take it one day at a time and like Scarlette said: Tomorrow is another day :-)

unplpug, delete, reset, re-start. These are humans you are contact with not cmoputers, people's memory does not get dumped when you turn the computer off. You shown you are a wonderful person from your behaviour and your actions, not from the amount of feedback you give to a picture. I know I speak for many when I say you won't be forgotten in a hurry, so you can take a well deserve vacation. As you said yourself you are here for the community not for the popularity. I've started around the same time as you and never even got close to the amount of posts you have done or the amount of feedback you received. I still believe this to be my community, even though not everyone knows my name. Get out have fun, we will always be here, in your own time.

I think you should hit the delete button and end the stress!! everyone here understands totaly and most of us has had to do it at one time or another. People here understand, they really do!! You are one person who has taken on alot and the best you can do is the best you can do :)

!!!!WOW!!!!! not only is your model wonderfully detailed in sharp crisp mats , I can't help but notice the grand texturing on those vases in the background...hey the entire background is Amazing!
