                <description><![CDATA[ So, I haven't uploaded anything to dA in months. And probably won't for a while. My shitty internet connection has made such a thing impractical... Eventually I'll get new stuff up.<br /><br />Also, I've noticed that I've put my name to an enormous amount of crap during my time on this site... Disregard, if you would be so kind. Deleting all  the sub-standard stuff with dial-up is... daunting. It's not going to happen.<br /><br />Oh, and, again, please note that absolutely <i>everything</i> on here needs basic editing - my monitor is shit, pushing ten years. I view all of my images significantly darker than you will, as my monitor is a good 30% darker than your average monitor while running on 100% brightness and contrast. Delightful, ennit?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Photography and Photomanipulation are two completely different artforms. (Using the term "art" a little bit loosely, I think I've got the lesser end on that one.) Personally, I don't edit my photos. Nothing more than a little brightening/darkening or cropping in the RAW editing software that came with my camera. Any edits beyond that, I consider Photomanipulation, and will submit it as such. I don't do much of that, but I can appreciate it as an artform - just a completely separate one. The distinction is important to me.<br />
<br />
Also... my monitor is a piece of shit. It's pushing ten years, and it just can't get as bright as it should. It runs on 100% brightness and is still significantly darker than any monitor should be. The contrast needs to be kept fairly high, as well, or the picture looks terrible. This means that all of my images appear significantly brighter than they should be on other monitors. If you actually give a flying fuck what I meant for them to look like, knock the brightness down on your monitor until you can no longer distinguish <i>any</i> of my facial features in my current ID. My face should be completely black.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
