Pony that's awesome!!! I've been sitting here waiting for like almost a year now. I'm going to start waxing and doing situps again now that I know LA might be in the cards again!
flavorful you might be right. I wasn't trying to sound high and mighty but imagine this if you will...Say that two years ago you left a room where people were having a pointless fight...only to walk back in two years later and they're still fighting about the same pointless shit. Would you respect them?
That post I made that you took offense to is basically my sentiment about this site in general. Just look at these timecodes:

his response: mrdobolina (Jul 19 07, 16:04)I did some work and came back ... he hits refresh and waits. But you know what...I used to do that. Until one day I realized that we're all here because of a common thread - design. Who talks about design on this site? Maybe a crit every once in a while where people basically talk shit to the person who asked for the crit. Just go and count the 'nope. start over' responses. I'm glad I left 2 years ago. Sure I met some really good people from this site, and I still talk to those people, I talked to Point5 this morning.I grew a lot over the last few years. Now to come back and see these two idiots fighting about the same pointless shit, have their screen names in 60% of the threads ... you can't tell me that people who sit here and constantly hit refresh and post all over the place are focusing on what brought them to this site in the first place. I wasn't when I did that, but it was a vicious cycle and I was caught up in it. Everyones choice is their own, be a JazX with 20 fake accounts and rub your eyes at the end of every day wondering where the last 18 hours went - Or be something different. I don't think I'd be really happy if I looked back 10 years from now and knew that I traded being moderately better at something I love doing for accumulating 30k posts on a community website. It's just not worth it to me, but that decision is mine. Look I know I'm on a soap box right now, but whatever, like I really give a shit, I've already wasted WAY too much time on this site...but some of you designers are REALLY young, and you can ask any of us who are near 30, the older you get...the faster it goes. So yeah, dobs who is at least, IMO a very talented dude, to see him acting like a block head still - seems like such a waste. But again, that's just me.
Alright this old man is off to bed.
