I've had this devart since I was...well...like 17, so I figure it's time to start a new one as my style and business has changed dramatically. So I would like to thank all of you who have followed me on this wonderful journey and hope that you will switch over to my new account.

my new devart home will be [link]

Yea, I've gotten to that point where I just have way more things to do than I have time...which is putting me behind in work that I want to do...but alas I'll somehow get through this and be able to finish!!

For those of you interested, Suntosa now has it's very own devart, check it out and friend it! [link] . I'll periodically be posting updates there, too!

I have so many things I want to submit to devart, but they're all WIP's ;3; somehow I will find tiem!

So, a lot of things have gone down this past month or so.

Pretty much: Cruinne is being sold/shutting down. This is happening for a variety of reasons which I will not comment on here.

So what's happening now?
Keep an eye out for [link] (Suntosa) which will be opening up in a few months. I've put together a great team that is going to make this site be better than ever before. I'm excited, to say the least, of all of the new features we will be implementing.

Also, school has started. With a dead laptop, this means I get NO work done at school. So I'm trying to find as much work as I can to fix this.

Several things:
-Cruinne is growing. Go visit and support it! [link]

-I've started a few more projects that I would love everyone to check out.
- The Otaku Blog. Original and entertaing articles which are a must read for any otaku. [link]
- Meruku -- The Avatar Community Home Base. If you're looking at starting or expanding or just looking for a new avatar community, this is your place to go! [link]
- Aniwall -- Your source for anime wallpapers. Nuff said. [link]

That's all for now!
