Original Description:
 
“Literally what happens whenever I post my OCs onto Derpibooru…  
This could be viewed in a more contextless light (its a reference to that one Garfield frame that became a meme), but its also more or less some venting on my end. I mostly talked about in the past that images featuring my OCs don’t normally do well, especially on Derpi, where they rack up more downvotes than usual. My most recent image if them was downvoted pretty hard, and it didn’t help that some asshat commented telling me to “change my artstyle”. It really rubbed me the wrong way, especially as I just started drawing again after taking a small break in December. If people take issue with my art or my OCs, that’s on them, but I’m not gonna just “change my style” because that would just be stupid and not make sense, especially since you can’t just throw away years of hard work like that. I posted an image on Derpi showcasing how much my art has progressed, and it seems that for the most part the reactions were fairly positive. Even so, it still kinda irks me that people on there seem to have a disdain towards my OCs for some reason, one that is never explained at all. It really discourages me from wanting to draw them, no matter how much I want to. That’s something you should never ever feel.  
Anyway, I feel like I have vented about this enough. I’ve come so far when it comes to my art and I’m not gonna let some pushovers bring me down, especially pompous braggarts who think they know better. Art takes time. I don’t want to go back into another creative slump or art block again. Again, if people have issue with my art and OCs, then that’s on them. Art takes time. You can’t just toss out years of progress all because someone said so. I still wanna know why Derpi dislikes my OCs, but I guess I’ll never get an answer to that. But nobody’s gonna bring them or my art down. There are people who do like my art and support me throughout, and I am very grateful to them.  
Okay, venting over. Expect some pones maybe.”
