I never got a chance to make a comment here because I was incredibly busy at the time (and still am). So apologies.
I just wanted to clear a few things up.
Firstly, I don't know Ainoko beyond he's a regular commissioner of mine. He's awesome to work with, but I wouldn't consider us "butt-buddies". I don't make friends easily and distrust people because of an issue I had awhile back.
Secondly, I apologized two or three times for the A_B I wrote, at the request of other artists, and was still called insincere regardless of how I wrote it. I'm not sure what was expected of me to say? Not to mention that I explained why the overlays were off, and someone corrected my use of the transform/resize/rotate tools on Paint Tool Sai. It does not have Constrain Proportions like Photoshop, so I didn't know it was off or could be dragged the wrong way. For some reason people disbelieve that fact. I'm sorry I'm not a total expert on tools I never used.
Thirdly, I never accepted any money for any shoops, regardless of what a certain user here likes to throw around (I also don't appreciate you bashing me in private on other LJ's :/). I offered once because I was in an incredibly hard financial spot at the time. Not once did the person contact me nor was I paid for it. There are also several other artists who do it, and I haven't been shooping for quite a few months now because I'm so busy with my own art.
Some of the remarks that were left here have left me incredibly saddened, as I respected many of the people here and always do my damndest to be respectful, nice, and approachable to everyone. I CAN be opinionated and argumentative, but it isn't meant to be a personal attack towards anyone and I never once have seen myself as better than anyone else.
Just thought I should shed some light on a few things that are being misconstrued and blown out of proportion.
