I'm referring to my super old art FYI, it's just part of my process to sometimes go back and fix mistakes in my pieces but I will still never claim that any of my art is perfect nor would I want it to be.

Point being I hope people learn to not feel so bad about their own art as much because the way you make your art says a lot about you, even things that you may feel are "off". I look back at the art I made that I hated and it's not so bad, I don't want a single piece redrawn or "perfected" screwthat

I've come to appreciate art from people who may not be the best or are just starting out because I can see that potential, and that work they put into it and whether or not they improve, the work is still their own and valuable, I can't be the only one who's had this perspective shift.

My feelings on Zootopia 2 are off also but it's hard to say why. I will shamelessly admit that I'll like something because it has furries in it 100%. I think it's how the culture is right now at this time and that culture making me not trust anything new and furry related, but idk why

Reminds me of this time capsule from 2009 of my desktop. I have a screenshot somewhere of me using this screenshot as a desktop background and it was an absolute mess.

If it helps. Ai can never pull off what makes human art valueable anyways so all they really get is the illusion at being something and that wont last.

Tbh never knew if Id consider reddit one. Its way different than the others design wise. All that said, i at least get that some people have found value from these sites but seriously i think sites with forum type designs made making friends infinitely easier, for me at least.

I don't like the term social media cause its confusingly broad depending on who's asking. Social media as in Facebook, x, bluesky? Does any website where you're social make it social media cause i don't count ytp forums as anywhere close to the same as facebook.
