So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Good Night!

[kerstin-orion.livejournal.com]

I've come to the tough decision that, due to increasing time-constraints over the past several months, it is time for me to step down as owner and moderator of Artists_Beware.

I am passing the 'owner' torch to kayla_la, who has worked hard for this community for the past five years. Since I have been so unavailable, Kayla-la and the other mods have stepped up and kept the community going smoothly. Thanks to all of them, my 'retirement' shouldn't have a measurable effect on the operations around here.

Thank you to all of my moderators, both past and present, for helping guide this community and all your ideas to make it better. I could never have done it without all of you, and I'm proud to have worked with you.

To the community as a whole: Thank you. You have made me proud over and over again with your great advice and professional attitudes. I smile at every resolved post, and am constantly impressed by the advice and input given here.

Take care, everyone, and happy arting!
-Kerstin

Its not the right "sugar" icon, but a good one to use in this situation. ;p

Thank you for choosing me to help you help A_B grow into what it is. Won't be the same without you, y'know.

And thank you for all your work around here. Eating all the sugar as necessary. ;P
