I have had a real hard time managing all the art sites I am on; I lose track and forget to update some, and then eventually end up falling way way behind with uploads and having to mass upload stuff onto here. I guess one of the reasons I fell behind on uploading onto here was because I had a much smaller watcher base comparative to other sites, and the interaction was to a lesser degree than some other sites I use and manage.
I will be trying to come back to weasyl; I want to bring my gallery up to date and try to upload some nice work onto here more often. I hope to build up a bigger watcher base onto here and make a good impression!
My commissions are also currently semi open and I am on my spring break, so I have found myself with a bit more free time. As a little update, I was accepted into my choice art school along the west coast, and will be starting there in fall! So I really want to push myself to try new things and improve my art, so here's to hoping that goes well!
How has everyone been? :)
Welcome back to Weasyl in this case. I'm not a very vocal watcher, but i'm still here o: I refuse to use FA again, and only have InkBunny and DeviantArt to keep track of, myself. So it'll be nice to see you uploading things here again.
I've heard people upset with FA again over the whole IMVU crap. Its got me pissy, too, but I've got a big watcher base on there so I have mixed feelings. :/
My reasoning is far prior to FA being bought by IMVU, although that turned my stomach all the same when i heard about it.
I completely understand the mixed feelings, especially if you've got a good sized following over there, but there are ways in which you can try and 'shepard' your watchers from FA elsewhere.
If you're interested, this journal's got a few tips and ideas how to make a switch, or even just to increase traffic here.

I hear you on keeping up being really hard. I've got a huge backlog of stuff to upload, myself. x-x
