You guys need to read the front page of the website once in awhile.

There's a front page?

I kid, I kid.

For what it's worth, the calendar pics are drawn by Higalack, colored by Ayanamifan.

So how do we go about requesting an invitation from you, if we want to join the site ourselves?

I just wanted to say that the artwork posted by both crisshapes and Tigersan is really awesome. Awesome work!  😮

[AbyssPlanet]

Yeah you're kinda running that gimmick into the ground.

[AbyssPlanet]

Cool, thanks. 🙂 I'll keep playing around with it and see what happens I guess.

Glad to see that you, uh, didn't respond to my question.  ???

Either you didn't activate your account from the automatic e-mail that got sent, PIXIV doesn't like your e-mail account, or you have typing something in the e-mail field of that Profile edit page when you should be leaving it blank.  I think those are the only possible things that could be going wrong. 

Well I know it's activated because I'm logged in. I received my activation Email and clicked the link in it yesterday, and ended up seeing similar screens to what you showed in your screenshots in your PIXIV post at your DeviantArt page. I can log in successfully at the main page. And literally the only thing I'm touching are the R18 radio buttons at the bottom.

Edit– just so I understand what's going on, what are all the other fields on the R18 settings page? Like, everything, top to bottom? Obviously I can't read them, so I'm asking you.

Okay, I go to that link, I click the radio button on the left, and one below it pops up labeled R18-G, so I click the left one for that too, and then I click the button at the bottom (I assume it's the submit button). Then red characters come up that say this:

????????????????

Clearly I'm doing something wrong.

Well my guess is he's "retiring" because his blog isn't being profitable, but taking an attitude of "it's too expensive? Haha, oh well, don't buy it!" is a really shitty business attitude. Of course you're going to fail if the market thinks you're overpriced and doesn't buy your stuff, and you don't think to lower your prices or do "sales" or something. LH Art is successful because they do a shitload of content with plenty of updates, throw viewers a bone every once in a while with freebies, and do "sales" on older stuff so they're at least making some money on it instead of letting it sit at the higher price indefinitely and never selling any of it.

I seem to recall pointing out this exact same thing the last time femXman "retired". Love his art a LOT, but the prices are way way too steep for my tastes. $3 a picture? No thanks. I don't care how good it is. I don't care who the artist is. It could be David C. Matthews, Scoundrel, doesn't matter. $3 a picture is outside my price range, and I bet I'm not alone. I also imagine that if femXman's blog was a runaway financial success, he wouldn't be closing it.

I mean, hell, maybe if he threw people a bone and did a "going out of business" sale and sold all his artwork for, like, $0.50 a picture, people would buy some of it. Shit, I'd possibly buy every picture on his blog if it was $0.50 apiece. At least he'd make something before closing the thing down.
