This is really great. It touches so many bases of the fandom.

Thank YOU for thanking the rest of us. So many artists think so highly of themselves that they forget that without the fans and the other people who make the fandom engaging, there wouldn't be a fandom in the first place for them to make their money off of or achieve their lofty reputations. I spend just as much time (if not more) as any artist building and maintaining furry websites and online community services and do not get any recognition or gratitude, not to mention an amazing amount of my hard-earned income to support the artists and community we have. I think a lot of artists would do better to keep the whole community in mind like you have here, and again thanks for thinking of all of us as a community and not as plebs to leech money from.
