Important: Gaia Art Commission Liquidation
Well, I've finally come to the decision that I should have done months ago. With the way things are going with my life as of late, I'm going to have to drop all of my "freebie" Gaia obligations and completely finish up the last of my commissions. Money is becoming a most important aspect for me and my husband at this point and well, I need to reserve my art talent for commissions that involve real money and not a fake "gold" internet currency.

To all of you that had freebies you were waiting on from me, I'm sorry to say that they will not be coming. I hate to do this because all of you that earned those freebies were so sweet and kind to me. I wish I could repay you all for it, but it seems my abilities fall short of what I can do.

I appreciate all the love and passion you guys put into me and my en devourers, and I really hope you all can forgive me.

If any of you have a question, feel free to PM me heart

Thank you all once again, I love you all.

-BridgeChan

Bridgie, of course we understand (at least I do!)

My only question is:
Will you stay at Gaia, and come chat with us some time?
To me it's ofcourse about your art, but more about the company you keep us.
I love chatting with you, and I really hope you will still chat with us, in the time you are free.

I can still remember the first time I met you in the BC sketch shop.
I have very much respect for you, since you can be so nice to people, who are very new, don't type very well and are actually only there for art to collect.

I really hope you have seen me as a little pal of yours that was (actually) only there to chat with, and not some kind of art-whore who only contacted you for your lovely art.

-Veer (Yosh the Panda)

Not to say your art isn't spectacular, but I think if given the choice most people would take your friendship and well-being over an art freebie any day. Nobody that I know of wants to feel as though they're a burden to you or to hold you back from bringing security and happiness to your own life. You know, pretty much everybody that meets you falls in love with you because you're just such an amazing human being and friend, and I don't think that anyone that truly cares about you would want to see you sacrifice your own happiness (and ultimately the friendship you share) by pushing yourself to do more than you can right now to make them happy. Especially not when you just simply being there makes them already as happy as can be.

Really, Bridge. Don't sweat it. We support you all the way. heart

@Yosh: Oh yes yes indeed sweetie, I'm not leaving Gaia for good. I just won't be on nearly as much as I have been. I'll ALWAYS be on for the events and such, and I want to try and get a list of all my Gaian buddies' birthdays so I can come online and at least wish you a happy day heart You're comment is very sweet by the way, and I've always thought of you are a buddy heart

@Holly: My sweet dear Holly, thank you so much for your comment, I've always loved you and you never cease to make me smile when we talk. If all of my friends feel the way you do, I must be the luckiest girl in the world to have such wonderful friends in my life. I really do appreciate having you in my life sweetie, never change heart

@Tara: I know very well. *Smiles and huggles* And I still appreciate your kind words ^______^ heart

Don't be sad Bri! You have to do what is best for you! Freebies are just that, freebies. You are not obliged or required to do them. You do them based upon the goodness of your heart, which is very large!

You do what is best for you!

With your current talents, you should have no problem in having a lot of real life comissions. I think it's good what you are doing, it's a good way to manage your money and stay on top of things. 3nodding

Of course, what Malee says about freebies not being mandatory tasks is true. :3 If any of the people who aren't getting freebies don't understand that, then that's their problem. Of course they would have expected to get much more than a free art if they were courteous and loyal to you.

What Holly said about friendship being more important than free art is definitely true. ^0^ I would even ignore my own feelings and well-being to help or satisfy my friends (even if that means giving up on winning $1,000,000 wink ) :3

Don't worry about anything, BridgeChan. A lot of people, and I, already understand you and of course that means that we care about how you feel and anything like that.

The most important thing in my point of view is that we are still able to chat with you, and that people don't have to worry about stuff like you leaving Gaia or anything that might depress the people you don't know in real life. :'3
