Welcome to 30dayartist.com.

As said, ’30dayartist’, this month, February,
we do not have enough days, therefore,
on every February, we will invite all past 30dayartists
to feel free to post ANYTHING they
want at this site.

Thank you fellow 30dayartists!
Without you guys, the site would
have not survived this far and wide.

I wish you all well, and pray that
this site will live on forever and forever
for everyone to benefit from it
of rediscovering the artist within themselves.

As usual, I apologize for my bad grammatical
mistake. We are still too poor to afford an
editor to proof-read these official stuff.
But heck, in 30dayartist we believe in the
free artist spirit.

I hope you all understand.

Till then and Godspeed.

www.30dayartist is a blog-site where every month

a new artist partakes the challenge of completing

40 works in 30 days.

Sorry to intrude Carr Win at your run.
But this is an important message:

Dear future-30dayartist for the month December,
whom I’ve confirmed the slot; Can you drop me an email?

I’ve accidentally formatted my drive and have lost your emails. Sorry for the trouble.

Thanks.

Andrew,

According to our Web Moderator, the ImageManager is not working properly.
Just use the normal image uploader below.

I’ve also tried fixing some of yr post that had some bad html that was
stretching the rest of the entire site.

I recomend you to sit down, gather all your images and upload them
in one go, and make sure that it doesn’t stretch the entire html site.

And I think best you ask for Jerry’s permission before you post anything;
cause January is his anyway.

But I’m sure Jerry don’t mind rite?

jeez.

when it rain, it pours.

i’ll be changing the web hosting soon.
just need to pass the cash over and voila!

there’s something wrong with the sidebars
and will be removing them soon.

worst, i just only got the news that January 2008 artist
will be delaying his run, so i’ll need to find a replacement.

so, anyone of you out there interested to take the run,
do let me know, (asap!)

till then, hope you all are well.

i sure-hope that Andrew don’t mind that i made
a sort of ‘commercial-break’ post here.

in the last couple of days when we were offline; the downtime,
i had alot of thoughts running in my head.

my first gut tell me was that;

we were hacked.

i feared of many things.

like;

doubt in my head, of continuing 30dayartist.

what’s the point? maybe the downtime it’s a sign
for me to stop.

let’s just pack our bags and call it a day.
who are we kidding? freeing the artist-soul within us?
get real, buddy! time to move on!
goodbye.

just-maybe.

then we were online again.
it was just some bad “migrating files”
(godknows what the fuck all this hi-technology term means)

i was assure again. i feel safe.
i’m glad that i don’t have to apologize to every single
past-30dayartist of their lost passionated words+works.

i was fear to be the one to tell everyone of their artful-effort-contribution
to 30dayartist,

is gone.

i thank God in reality now,
that i don’t have too.

we will be here for a long-long time.

i retrace my negative-thoughts,
when i had the givin-up feeling
for 30dayartist.

i learned of my ‘retreat’.

and then it pops up in my head;

what i’ve got to lose?

nothing, it’s just art.

who cares if it’s a small community or a big community?

if it works or it doesn’t.

if it’s famous or not.

if it’s good or crap.

if there’s anymore artist out there that believes in 30dayartist or not.

(i remembered how conceptart.org people was skeptic of this,
or maybe some still are.)

you can have my word, i’ll forever be here,

no matter how,

30dayartist will live.

you can hack us, you can ban us.

you can’t completely wipe us of the web,

who can?

the internet is just too ‘open’.

(but this is not a challenge to hackers out there.
peace! we’re just an art-free-community.
please leave us alone.)

what matters to some is just ‘walking’,

some ‘running’.

for me, i’m glad the least that we’re ‘moving’.

to the extend, i don’t even care, if it’s forward or backwards.

in the end of day, it’s just art.

merry christmas to all,

and wish you all

a happy-coming-new-year.

“may all of you artist’s dream be fulfilled!”

(don’t be too greedy though.)

Dear all,

Sorry that we have been offline for a couple of days.

Something went wrong with our webhosting.

I deeply apologize to Andrew, that this incident has disrupted his run.

Andrew, if you’re still there, please proceed to let us know that
you’re still in the run.

Till then, I wish everyone of you well.
