After finding out from my friend Jyo about what DA is doing now, I have removed not only my artwork but my stories as well. What are they doing now... they are claiming all artworks and stories BY OTHER ARTISTS AND WRITERS that upload to DA as their own! Reserving the right to sell and profit from others works, without giving one tiny dividant of which to the person that did the work. So, to be safe I have removed my things from here and highly suggest others do the same before someone does the same to your works.

First it was art theives and DA defending them, now it seems that DA itself has become Art Theives. Oh, how the mighty have fallen under the weight of their power. ^u.u^ This is Core Belote, signing out.

as we know it, and I feel... like blowing something up. ^O__O^

Well the AntiTheft group has been taken out by DA administrators, a group meant to help keep track of the growing number of art theives has been shut down... banned indefinately. So it does look like DA is protecting the art thieves and not the artists. As such, even though I'm not that well known of an artists I am going to be moving my gallery to be just on my website and SheezyArt. Hopefully I can get in contact with SheezyArt and ask them politely not to take the same pathway as DeviantArt has. I remember when this online gallery was a great community of artists, and now it seems to have fallen into a vile pit of theivery so putrid that skimming the surface you get enough tar to pave a road. Don't get me wrong, there are still some great artists here, but a great many are leaving due to the administration and the theives that they protect.

This will most likely be my final post here, so for further artwork from me I think you should go to my personal website or my SheezyArt gallery.

I really hate art theives, and the sad thing is that there seem to be a growing number of them online. As of lates I have yet to be a victom, but those around me seem to be hit by them a great deal. Now, here is something that I don't really tell people by it is one of the LARGE reasons why I hate art theives. My little sister did a piece of artwork, nothing fancy and she didn't much care for it. But someone else did and took it from her, slapped their own name on it and guess what they did... they SOLD IT! No credit given to my little sis, nothing at all was mentioned that it was her original work. She stopped drawing for a bit afterwards, not really in a depression but she thought that if someone would buy a piece she worked on just for fun and was something she herself didn't like what was the point of putting time into making more artwork.

Now my sister is very good at drawing dragons and other characters that have a cartoon like quality to them. Personally I think she is very very good, but that's the older sibling side of me talking more then artists. Anywho, now you know why I dispise art theives so much and go after them with such venom that scares people at times. *gnaws on desk to control self* ^@___@^ RAR!

I would like to thank everyone that commented on my Deivant Journal as well as my LJ since I made a post there as well incase those that don't visit here will know why I'm being bit more quiet then usual and bit anti-social. But due to the efforts of some to cheer me up, rather then tossing me tied up to tentacle monsters in a pit... I'm back to about normal for me. Guess what hit me hardest was the fact that not only did I lose a new friend, but also that about this same time I lost two others in sepparate car accidents. Just the flood of emotion hitting me all at once over things was to much for me, blah, laugh or poke fun at if you like but I'm not as tough edged as other guys and not afraid to admit it.

Well, on to other things since I need to do something rather then sit at home and mope about on things of the past and have just happened dwelling on me heavily. I'm springing back into some action with doing some artwork and some more writing, I also made a list of other things to do. I might be a bit late with updates if one of the things listed happens, since that is to get off my duff and get a job at the new mall that is going to be opening up here on the base. XP Hehehe, will be much safer then old job I thinks and who knows might be good source of material for some piccies. With any luck I'll be getting my life in order and then... who knows.... only the Shadow knows! ^OoO^ Beware the Hedgehog!! He knows your PIN!!!

I know that I haven't been updating, that is due to an artist block. But... something has happened today that has hit me like a hammer and brought back old memories and emotions. Today, October 25th 2004, my friend Nana_Wolf was killed in a hit-and-run accident. I knew her for only a brief time, but in that time I came to know her as a good friend. She was very young... you will pardon me if my art updates are haulted for a while longer.
