I joined SA 3 days ago, and to tell you the truth, I've felt more welcome in that 3 days than I have in the 3 years being on another certain art site.
On here, people seem much more friendlier and more willing to leave comments. On the other site, it seems if you don't draw anime or take photographs of wierd things, you're not accepted. On here, it's a complete contrast. People here accept you and make you feel welcome almost immediately.
So I would just like to say thank you to everyone so far who have taken the time to look, comment and fav my art so far. And especially for making me feel welcome.
