It's been exactly 3 years today that I left this site due to not having any ideas. It also happened to be on my birthday....which is also today. Go me!

The point of this entry is to state that lately, I've been seriously commiserating coming back. Because I am afresh with new ideas for stamps during my 3 year absence :D

Yeah....don't see the point in hanging 'round here anymore.

One, I don't make stamps any more. Don't have any ideas. And I never make pixel art due to deterioration in my hands (I am afflicted with a rare genetic collagen disease that causes muskuloskeletal pain and weakness). I'm satiated in terms of self-expression via my Tumblr blog (greenyvertekins.tumblr.com/) where others ask me about my views, like listening to them and are receptive to them without slagging me off for them like this douchebag - psyco-the-frog.deviantart.com/ Not that I'm bothered by that, I just tire of the strawmanning and intolerance. If you miss me or want to get in touch for whatever reason, I'm always available there to talk to :)

Two, quite a number of responses to my stamps are annoying to me for their intolerance and cluelessness. I can't be arsed to engage such people simply because they like to cover their ears and not listen to logic reason or why I hold the views that I do (Apparently it's impossibly difficult to read the artist comment). Some are also quite mean in how they go about this. So congrats Deviantart, you've proven yourself to be amongst the absolute worst hives of Sonic fans on the web.

Three, my deviations and Tumblr blog are being frequently linked-to (I monitor who by and when my stuff is being looked at. Google Analytics is an amazing tool) and cited as being something they aren't. For instance, I am extremely anti-Sonally. But not for the wrong reasons i.e "She gets in the way of SonAmy!", "Sally's a bitch who should go die!" yet other Sonally haters are bring-up my points in their arguments and construing them in completely the wrong way and by extension garnering me an undeserved reputation by the action of doing so.

Fourth, my internet connection at the moment is a mobile one with limitations, including blocking access to this site due to the restriction placed upon it. This inhibits my ability to be active here and has only strenghtened my resolve to just give up on this page. I'm only typing this now due to using my sister's web connection.

So there you have it.

I don't believe in deactivation and I personally wish to leave my works up and stamps simply because I hope people enjoy my PA's and continue using my stamps, heeding their messages.

So bai.

Also, it's my 28th birthday today hue.

Yes, I'm still around :P I just haven't had much web access lately and the mobile internet I've been using blocks this site :/

Thanks for all the Bday wishes! :D I have seen them even if I haven't had any opportunity to reply personally to each.

I don't know anymore...

I have literally no motivation to create any more and practically force myself on a regular to write posts on places such as SSMB and my Tumblr. 

I mean I've gone for a few months having the frequent thought that oh, this might just be a phase, motivation shall surely come around the corner some time and hit me dead on. Yet as much as I expect it, I never feel myself getting inspiration, getting motivation, having passion for writing about things that interest me. And as much as I hate to admit it, I tend to feel like those things are never going to come to me.

Perhaps I'm being a pessimist...

Now my internet connection is reconnected and gloriously fast and my time isn't taken up by other priorities right now and because I need ideas, I'm eager to take stamp requests again. I'll only take a few at a time though, I'm only human ;)

The rules are;

1 - I primarily dabble in Sonic-related stamps and very, very little else.
2 - I do not and will not make stamps that slander RL people or which irrationally hate on fictional characters (Well-founded and credible dislike or criticism is A-OK though). I will make stamps that express rational, well-founded criticism.
3 - I don't make mega-long gif stamps because I find that screen-shotting hundreds of screenshots for the frames is labor and time-intensive. Relatively short animated stamp requests are what I am inclined to accept.
4 - I do not and will not make stamps that are pro-fetish or pertain to NSFW things.
5 - It is at my discretion and my discretion only whether or not I accept requests sent to me. Don't be put-out if I decline your request. This is unlikely however if the request is within the rules. I do like fulfilling requests made of me within reason ;) (Wink)
6 - There is no point in requesting something that I have already done. Take a look through my gallery's stamp folder to see if your intended request has already been done.
7 - I'll only take on at most 5 requests at a time.
8 - Don't expect an elaborative artist's comment behind the stamp if I don't agree with it's message due to opinion difference. It is basically impossible for me to be long-winded or 'passionate' regarding something I don't personally believe in.
