Just so you guys are aware, the last journal was an April Fools joke.
I hope people didn't take too much time on it. I actually appreciate how well everyone took it, I thought it was a silly idea.
As a sign of good faith (since people actually responded way more than I thought) I really will run an art contest this weekend. I'm even willing to take suggestions on the type of contest.
I actually love it when sites do little April Fools pranks! But, you might want to be a little more careful than usual, given the history of many users here - in the past, FA was known to "prank" users by suddenly claiming to have introduced a long-awaited site feature, which made the users exceedingly angry, given how long they'd all been asking and waiting for the promised update.
Of course, if you actually DO change the square thumbnails after today, you guys are my heroes (◠﹏◠✿)
I'm not actually working for Weasyl anymore. I needed to step down due to time, but I would say based on my experience with the staff the general attitude is "do not promise something we cannot immediately produce"
Don't take this as a quote or a promise, just yeah I feel that hesitation. At the same time I am more confident in this staff
My reference was to a little april fools thing I did with a contest saying I'd give a commission to someone that found 7 changes in a picture, there were 6 only. yadda yadda hahaha
people took it well, good times had, and i'll be doing a contest this weekend so as not to be an insufferable tease.
