Restore the Trust! ... or bust.

Following the example of many others before me, I have removed all of my art from DA. (Those ugly yellow banners don't count.)

I would have done it whether or not others were making a statement, since I personally refuse to patronize an organization that I cannot respect. (That's why I don't buy Microsoft products either, but I digress...)

However, I still have my art online. I've recently opened up a Flickr account and I'm almost done moving over all of my old stuff. As soon as that's done I have plenty of new pictures to upload as well.

I'm not alone, either. Jark has a Flickr account as well, along with many other DA members. (I'm not going to list them all, just check Jark's contact list.)

I'll still stop in every now and then to check up on artists I know and like, but unless things change (and I doubt they will, in spite of the mass deviation exodus) I will not renew my paid account or submit any new artworks.
