Hey guys.....my apologies.
I have been going through some tough personal family issues, but that really doesn't have anything to do with my account deactivation.
I've been struggling with small things related to my craft and I was having a really bad night....I did something I now regret...I deactivated my account. It wasn't hacked. It was me. I regret my decision and am so Happy that DA actually gives you the option to reactivate even tho at the time it says the action cannot be undone. Whew! I have way too much history here and am so sorry I let my small slip of judgement almost throw that all away.
Everything is cool...so please don't be too concerned for me. Although, I might not be very active here. I just feel that I need to step back a bit...I have found that I really am putting too much pressure on myself and I need to relax a bit.
So, I will be here...lurking about. I'll post things when I can. I thank everyone for their continuing support. I truly appreciate it.
I'm feeling a bit silly now, but you know, we all have to deal with our issues in our own way. I didn't handle it properly. Lesson learned. All I can say is I won't do it again. I'm just really happy I could restore my account.
I hope the resource of inks will be useful and help further each colorists ability and potential career. Feel free to color as always. Just credit and post links.

As for my family issues, my Uncle was murdered in the Philippines last week. What a huge shock and it is an overwhelming event that I never expected. It's something that we will have to deal with one day at a time. It's part of the reason that I will be taking a bit of a break.

So, again, I apologise. Keep well everyone, and I will see you soon.

James
