thank you!
there has been all kinds of arbitrary deadlines I've set for myself for starting this, but there has always been some other arbitrary reasons not to do it
summer is passing fast, however, and somehow I have reached 1k followers which was the final deadline I set myself, so here we go
I am extremely thankful that there are people who like what I do. despite all my self-doubts and periods without inspiration or energy to make images, I do enjoy this hobby, and love sharing it with so many creative, kind, and wonderful people
I would likely be doing images without all of you, but it would be very different experience, lacking a lot of the richness the interactions with you all bring
a huge thanks to everyone who has reacted, followed, tipped, and especially commented or reached out otherwise! you bring joy to my life, and I give back way too little. I'll do my best to improve on that
the bounty
last time we reached an staggering 110k buzz distributed to 25 amazing winners! I still get cold sweat when I remember how writing the results article was
can we top that this time? will we fall short because the site breaks down, the koala breaks down, or something else mysterious and exciting happens?
ps. if someone wants to help with organizing and judging, I'll gratefully accept
