It's been years since I was first introduced to DA.... ( joined in 2005 as 'livelifetothefull' )

...but now I am suddenly more into it than ever.

It has always been a wonderful source of inspiration, but I never gave back to the community, I was hardly even aware of the community! I definitely didn't upload enough work to call my self a Deviant!

I feel I am now starting to realise that the more you put in to DA the more you get out of it, and I am actively commenting on the work that I feel I have something useful or worthwhile saying about it, or even If I just want to say how much I like it. I also try and get up a shot or two when I feel it is overdue.

To sum things up there are some wonderful people here on DA, and I have only just realised how much time people put into helping each other become the artists we want to be, and producing the sort of work that blows each others socks off!

There is a community on here somewhere that I am ready to be a part of.

Thanks all of you who helped me realise this. You probably have no idea who you are!
