I'm like many of the people who create art. When I see/hear/play/watch/read something, I don't want more - I want to make my own.
I've come to Shadowness.com from deviantART because I often felt like there was just too many people on dA to have a relaxed art sharing community. Everyone has to compete to get their art shown, and it's not really their fault - it's just the system there.
Hopefully Shadowness will be a relaxed, personal, and fun community. I'm already in love with the interface.
