Personal Milestone

It's taken 2 years and a 1 month and 320 uploads, but today I broke 200,000 downloads. (198 of which are from a wall that was sent to my personal gallery. Yeah, I'm proud of it.) This may not seem like much over such a long period, especially if you look at the skinners who are over a million downloads, but I felt like bragging just the same.

That's approximately, if you break it down without being terribly detailed...263 downloads a day. Not great numbers, but I can live with them.

I usually find these kind of posts cheesy and breeze through them. Now,I'm writing one.
Go figure.

I just want to thank everyone for some awesome support, encouragement, and patience (for the mods and admins). I know my stuff is odd at times, which just makes it even better that enough people like it that I got this far. I freakin' love the people here and the community.

I just wanna thank some people who really went out of their way for me.
Sleeping Dragon (where are you?) who gifted me with the OD software over a year ago, when I was just getting over my spinal fusion and really needed that kind of support and encouragement.

Jafo...for being Jafo. Sometimes I want to beat you upside the head with a wet phonebook.
Then you go and do something nice and I have to put it back in the bucket of water. You doofus.

And then everyone else who puts up with me. But NOT skinhit. I HATE skinhit. I really do. Almost as much as I hate cats. If he even responds in this thread I swear I will delete it and hire a gypsy to put a curse on him.

I was a Nurse for 12 years my friend..


Is this morphine pump all it's cracked up to be? I'm having bone removed , so I know damn well (no matter how much they don't wanna tell me) it's gonna hurt. They're telling me I won't feel like like eating for a few days and to eat right up to midnight on Thursday.

All the best mate, our thoughts are with you, my wife moira also had spinal surgery and still lives with pain every day, so we have an inkling of what it might be like for you mate.

And well done on the downloads, I love your stuff, its' been at least a couple of years since I haven't had something you created on my desktop

Congratulations I am definatly a patron of your walls...having a twisted mind and all.   All the best to you!!!

Wow. Thank you very much. It's nice to hear that anything I make actually ends up on anyone's desktop. That always makes my day.

Wishing you a speedy recovery PO'.....I think that you will easily exceed your download count with the newest icons you did.. And hopefully they will push the mods to move you up that very long ladder
You already have your work cut out for you with a request by Armbut for those icons in the Rare icon request thread

It's My Secret

Oh yeah, she's really inta that sorta thing orright, as be evidenced by tha cat o' nine lash marks across me arse....by tha fact I can 'ardly stand up straight fer 'avin' bin 'cross 'er knee thrice daily.

Truth of the matter there: I have prolapsed discs, sometimes no disc and spurs all along my spinal column....and sitting for long periods makes my coccyx (can I say that word here) ache like all buggery, so I empathise/sympathise with anyone who suffers neck & back issues.

Anyhow, here's hoping your op is a huge success and you're up & around in no time.

It ain't easy, bein' cheesy.

The op went well. It's 1:30 in the morning here. Hard to sleep with all this crap hooked up to me and the meds have me sorta comin and goin. lol. Keepin my eye on this pump. It's low and I think it runs out tomorrow. So, if you hear some yellin'...lol.

Thanks for all the great feedback. I really needed it to keep me up thses past 2 days.

As for talk of any promotion...I think there are people that would actually have sudden fits of turrets and their heads would explode if that happened. lol. But I greatly appreciate the kind thoughts. I'm just glad to hear all these nice things. That's what really makes my day.

Let there not be talk about promoting Po'  I don't need my coffee fetched that badly. 

Glad you are well.  I'll tell the kids the bedtime prayers worked again. 

As an aside:
Zubaz is glad he's never had a bone(r) removed
