Hey peeps, I hope everyone is having a *mooooo*ry xmas 😉

So for the past few, uh… months (I think?) I've been slowly working my way through all my archived art chronologically, uploading them again to Weasyl. I'm roughly 50%-ish through it so far, currently working my way though the 2017 folder.

I was naively waiting until I'd gotten all the way to 2023 before notifying any peeps about it… 😰 but… yeah… since it's taking a while… well, I thought I'd touch base and let everyone know what's going on.

I've been doing a few revamps and remakes of some of the old stuff into fancier versions, especially now that I've hit the 2017 and beyond folders. I also included a few ones that were skipped / forgotten / held back due to awkward shyness. I thought it might be fun to add some bonus content into the gallery. All this revamping probably doesn't help with the speed of my uploads, but it feels fun to revisit (and sometimes, slightly tweak/retcon ever-so-slightly) all these older drawings. Breathing new life into forgotten/unfinished/sketchy drawings, plus also giving peeps some fresh new drawings hiding there in the gallery to enjoy 😘

I was using the "Don't generate notifications" checkbox a little too liberally to keep it on the down low, but now that I've been doing all these revamps I think I oughta just let the revamped art generate notifications and save the stealthing for say, just the unmodified comic pages and such. Sorry about going so shy and silent for such a long while there! Discovering that checkbox existed helped me work past some of my anxiety and get the ball rolling on the (re)uploads.

I do have a Discord server where I've been sharing newer doodles & WIPs. It's just temporary as a stopgap until I get the ball rolling on Weasyl. The Discord server is still more of a social hangout spot than a gallery. So if peeps want to see more recent doodles they can ping me a message for an invite to the server. But otherwise, everything will eventually end up in the Weasyl gallery.

So yeah, gonna keep trucking on with this nostalgia trip through the past archives, until I get everything in sync. 2023 has been kinda rough and anxiety-filled, but I'm trying to push through to the silver lining of trying new things, and hopefully still find a way to keep peeps (and myself) entertained with silly doodles 😉
