I think people complain a little bit too much here. Personally, I think this is a great site. I don't see why people complain so much about it. One example that comes to mind is when certain people (I'm talking about anime and anthro artists here) complain about art thievery and the admins not doing much about it. Don't get me wrong, I love anime. Not too big on anthro, but I wouldn't say that I hate it. Hell, I draw in a "anime style" and considered myself an anime artist once. Also, yes I know that art thievery sucks big time, and no one should be a victim to it. However, if your art looks like everything else out there, then why are you complaining? If your work looks like everything that's out there, you yourself copied someone else's work. I've seen people bitch over the fact that this person stole their character or something like that, but when you look at the art in question, it looks exactly like everything that's out there. I'm not saying that anime and anthro artists lack originality, and I'm also not saying that EVERY anime artist and anthro artist do this. In fact, I've seen some really original works in "anime style" or "anthro style". It's just so happens that anime and anthro can get recycled easily, and certain people (not all mind you) take advantage of it. Take this into consideration the next time you accuse someone of being an anime or anthro art thief. They might just be innocent after all.

The other thing to keep in mind is this: You're posting your art on the internet. No...wait...listen...THE INTERNET. If you really want to complain about art thieves and such, don't post online. There are too many freaks and thieves online. People don't make those indentity theft articles for fun you know. Having your work online might be asking for trouble if you don't copyright your stuff. Even copyrighting can't save you all time too.

Yes, art thieves suck, but if you're going to complain about it...take what's above into consideration. Also, what I'm saying is to be taken more as an general statement. I am in no way directing this towards any specific person, it's just some of the stuff I've seen on this site. Before I forget, if you're going to complain about the admins, try putting yourself in their shoes. They have to deal with a lot of crap, and having you complain so much doesn't help much either. They have a lot of resposibility here, and it's something a lot of people don't take into consideration. At least they do what they can, so at least appreciate that. I don't have more to say on the matter because I personally had no problems with admins.

I'm not here to make enemies, I'm merely expressing my thoughts. I really don't want a mob of people telling me how much I suck. If you disagree with what I have to say, then respond in an orderly and polite fashion. I don't think I lacked respect with this, so I expect respect in return. I'm saying this because I know I'm bound to piss someone off with this.

And those are my four cents (it seems more than two if you ask me).
