Still very interested in this thread and have been since the start.It's been 8 years since I and @-BLITZ- started this thing? Damn, time flies.
So, what's up with the thread, eh? Well, I guess it comes down to a few things:
1) I really don't see a lot of interest in the thread from people here anymore, not to mention that nobody is requesting anything from what was already posted and which is not easily accessible for reasons. Don't know why, but I guess nobody cares...? I mean not just a few users, I still remember the days when artwork threads were pretty crowded and there was a lot of interest.
2) I really don't want to give up everything I've collected for people to then put it behind paywall on Patreon or whatever like this site is doing for example - https://www.creativeuncut.com/ (maybe there's more I don't know about). There's no way I'm going to give them free stuff so that they could get money for something they don't even have the right to sell in the first place, which makes me wonder how they are still alive.
3) I just can't share a lot of the stuff I have cuz of reasons I can't discuss, which means that a lot of arts will never see the light of the day on NeoGAFs pages. That's just the sad truth.
4) Storing arts online in the cloud costs money, but thanks to someone here I won't name, I sort of fixed that problem but Idk for how long. Google Drive is the best option cuz nobody will ever delete anything you have in the cloud unless you're not using your account for years.
5) Storing arts locally also costs money, which is okay if I'm doing it for myself, but even that is not that easy anymore cuz of the goddamn fascist Putin and his regime, not to mention that I have to give up free space on my HDD for backups and there's a lot of arts I've posted here over the past ~15 years.
I mean, Idk what @-BLITZ- has to say in regards to why he's also not posting anything, but that's why I didn't. Here's the thing, it's not like I don't have something I can post, far from it, but it doesn't look like most of the people who once visited artwork threads, posted and shared something as well care about any of it anymore. So, why keep posting if nobody really cares? Why keep posting if literally nobody requests anything (again, not 1 or 2 people (if even that), that just doesn't count)? Nobody's even asking if we have something and can we share it or not.
Feel free to correct me on this if I'm wrong, but that's just the way I see it
I have some I can contribute here as well, that I'm pretty sure haven't been posted as of yet.
