Hi! My name is K.D., although most online know me as misachan83. I'm 32, and am an author and anime lover. Welcome to the shadows of my creative and sometimes odd mind

Little Profile Update

Sorry I haven't been around for a while. Life's been happening and I haven't had time to really be on here. But I wanted to say that I'm still around and alive, and I thought I'd give an update on other places to find me outside of here just in case anything happens with this site (been noticing a lot of posts about that and am a bit concerned. I want to keep my friends here if I can)

I share stuff on these pages a lot and I can keep in contact through all of them. On the up note, I also hope that everyone's been doing well here. I've been out for a while, so I don't know exactly who's left, but I hope you guys are all still around. Hope you're having a good new year!

Interesting Developments and Annoying Things

So it seems there's been a lot going on lately between the changes with the O and the art thieves. Honestly, I've been feeling a bit out of commission lately, although I've been trying hard to fight it. There's just been a lot going on right now in my personal life that I've been trying to keep to myself, and it's been eating me lately. But I thought it would be nice to talk about that stuff anyway, now that I can make myself (depression is just an awful demon at times).

All right, so first off, I do admit that when I first saw the changes to the O, it did concern me. A piece of me is still a bit concerned, but I'm also hoping that the coming changes will be positive for our little community. I really don't have many contacts other than here, but if you'd like my email just in case, I will send it to you in a message. I do have a DA account, but I really don't use it. I'm considering doing a little tiny website for my art and writing at this time, but I haven't gotten around to completely saying that I will.

On another note, I'm quite peeved at the art thieves that I've been seeing a lot of lately. I've been reporting the works, but they unfortunately haven't been able to be taken down yet. For those of you who have been following such things, you know the two that I'm talking about. One is spamming the fanart, and the other is now spamming the wallpapers big time (I reported two of her wallpapers over a month ago, but she's still at it and they still haven't been removed sadly). Let me just have my say about such a thing, as everyone else has. Art theft is low and very offensive. We as artists work very, very hard on what we make, and it's awful when someone steals something and so blatantly claims it. Most of us have experienced such things at one point or another, including myself, and as artists we don't tolerate it here and will report it when we see it. I doubt any of them will read this, but I wanted to say it.

All right, so now that I've gotten that out of the way, I also wanted to take a moment to tell everyone how much I enjoy being here. Everyone here has always been great friends, and I love seeing all of the different kinds of artwork that everyone does. No matter what, I intend to stick with the O, and hopefully it will be for years to come. You all are wonderful
