OK, so I haven't been the most faithful to DeviantART as of late... since September 2007 that is. Some of the reasons for me sort of abandoning this site in whatever condition I left it in was include the fact that I wasn't, and probably never will be, a confident contributor to the website/artist in general. Sure, everyone seems to like my 'Oblivion' manipulation, but I could never find the time or the ability to do anything other than dodgy Photoshopping and/or average photography. Also, because of the pressures of school life from September to November 07, and the whirlwind of summer holiday activities and the like, I completely forgot about this site. I was a little shocked to find something like 228 unread messages and 365 unviewed deviations waiting for me! Some of my best friends also stopped using their pages (long ago!) and that might be yet another reason for losing interest in DA.

The biggest reason however, would be the fact that life goes on. I've changed since I joined, and that change has led me many different and fantastic places, so DA almost became a thing of the past for me - part of my teenage cocoon from which I've broken free. I'm ever-so-close to finishing compulsory education, and study/work commitments are my number one priority nowadays.

Alright, I think that's enough sentimental stuff
I'd just like to say sorry firstly to all the people that have commented/faved anything of mine since September 07 - I haven't replied to you, and might not get the chance to, but thanks for your interest

To anyone else that visits the page in future and comments - thank you for your interest also! The teenage me lives on inside and appreciates any comment you wish to make

To my DA friends, who I probably speak to in real life anyway, thanks for the support, and sorry I didn't give much in return

Special thanks to , , and - without you three, (who have all moved on I think!) my page wouldn't exist!

Anyways, fare-thee-well, DeviantART. May we one day be reunited!
