Hey...I'm kinda back...but not really. I just wanted to spend my last moments here on this version of dA. The version I grew up with...well I went through multiple versions of this site, but this one I grew up with and I'm emotional attached to in a way. 

Why do you think I made this picture for dA's 18TH birthday 



because that's what made dA, dA...

Eclipse...I still feel..doesn't. And it's going to happen no matter how much feels too undone. I know the staff is super excited and the reasons for them stopping this version...I mean I get it. But...I just feel there's just too much that's not done. I feel it's too soon. I feel like...almost leaving deviantart forever...Because I've had such a journey on this site, good and mostly bad that makes me super emotional to this current version. My journey of getting involved in the community and my journey through art itself. I know I can start a new journey with Eclipse, but I'm barely on this site as it is because..things just...haven't been getting better in my honest opinion with this site. A lot of my friends left this place and it's just been...lackluster.  I stayed for a bit just to see how things would be...and...I know change is hard. It is, and it's inevitable. But my emotional connection to the site is also what's making me want to leave...

I feel this outdated version will ALWAYS be the best version because it's been consistent from the previous old versions (even though they took the amazing footer away)...Eclipse is such a major change and...it's too much to get use to especially when...it just feels incomplete. I've given a lot of money to this site in the past...and it feels like a waste in my honest opinion. 

I feel the mock ups I did in the journal I made about notifications really wasnt taken seriously...like most mock ups I've seen many deviants around this site make. I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Eclipse is happening no matter what. And I'm glad some people are excited. I'm sure the staff is excited...but for me...it's just...something I'm going to have to learn to accept...i'll be honest, I cried..because so much on this site has impacted me and i still feel it's never been resolved. I finally started CSS coding 2018 then they announce no more CSS Coding which unmotivated me so much for this site even more and the staff has their reasons why that is...it's just...so much is just so unmotivating for this site. I wish the staff would acknowledge different artist more trying to grow and get out there instead of the same artist over and over again...I wish dA would do more for deviants...community wise...I wish this site was like what it use to be in the early 2010s...I feel so much was so better back then. But we must move on no matter what. This site has made a lot of celebrities in the art world that we get inspired by...but IDK if Eclipse can continue that...I hope it proves me wrong

I'll be on Instagram more and I'll try to get involve with twitter...but just know...I wish Eclipse luck. Deviantart still has over 100,000,000 so to the people who hope dA dies, it won't anytime soon and I don't want Deviantart to die....I just wish it the best that Eclipse succeeds. 

I...will miss you old dA...I really will miss you so much better dA...I hope Eclipse treats you well...

Adieu deviantart...
