God only knows if anybody cares, but I draw Reno and Abby too much for my own good.

If anybody does care, it's at
www.freewebs.com/locoexclaimer.
Please sign my guestbook while you're there.
Oh yeah, and I also draw MegaMan, Sonic, Pokemon, my own characters, and misc junk. Be warned.
So, what do you think? Is my art good, or crap? Please be honest... if you think my art is junk, I won't be upset.
Oh yeah, and nobody's gonna get on me for not introducing myself like in MegaMan Battlenetwork, right?
If they are, I'm Loco the Exclaimer, and I'm new. First post ever. Pleased to meet you.

Welcome!
You are very very good. The only thing is that we're trying to remain children friendly and I feel some of these drawings seem targeted more towards adults. That doesn't take anything away from your talent, of course, so as a moderator I'm not sure I'm at ease with them (not that they bother me as I'm an adult).

I'm not exactly all that old (early teens, true age private), so your comment really disturbs me. Nobody I've shown my art to has ever expressed any sort of offense...

Alright, site's gone.
Yeah. I know, I'm weird, but I really feel that kinda bad. Not to make you feel guilty, Astro Forever, but maybe these things are better left in my sketchbook.

I feel horrible.
Any admistrators or whatever, please delete this thread.

Hey, it's all right, it's not like you committed a crime. Just, some kids may get to the site and come across some PG art. (Yet it's still safe; everyone's clothed.)

Well it's successfully gone now.

Don't feel horrible, it's not like these drawings shouldn't have existed or anything, and you are very talented. I certainly do not think that you've done anything wrong. It's just that from what I know, we have a few prepubescent members here, so we're trying our best to not cross a certain fine line when it comes to sexuality. It's not very easy to navigate through it though. Even among the users here, sometimes some will see nothing wrong with some things and others will feel differently. Usually we're trying to stay on the safe side, but it doesn't mean that everything else is horrible. In fact, I remember a few pictures in the past few years that the moderators agreed to take off and, while I agreed as well, it didn't prevent me from finding them hilarious.
It would probably be different if we were a general anime forum, but since Astro usually targets younger audience, we're trying to manage the forum accordingly.

Oh, you didn't have to delete your entire website!
In honesty, your stuff was well drawn and hardly graphic! (I'm probably a shred of your age and I make
scarier stuff.) Be glad you've got a lighter-toned style than me.

Well, I thought about it, and brought the site back. Pictures and all.
I guess I am a little quick to get upset, and do overreact... but at least I'm also pretty quick to cool down.
Sorry about that... oh well.
And one more thing... could you come back and re-sign my guest book?

I'm glad to see you back.
